This is a greata re-imagining and exploration of the characters. I really like the parallels between Percy and Edward (*cough* I-ship-it *cough*).
And just how concisely passages like this sum up the complexity of the relationships:
There's whatever has been going on for years between Richard and Henry, which seems to have spilled over into who can gain the most admiration from Henry's boy Hal, who is in turn trying to impress Richard, annoy his father, and gain all of Harry Percy's attention in the space of five minutes.
That entire scene at the hunt is great (and somehow it all ends up feeling like Hal's fault, or maybe that's just me.)
