suborbital JUST POSTED THIS OVER AT narnia_slash AND I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY RE-QUOTE IT OR WHATEVER BECAUSE OH MY FUCKING GOD:

It may also explain what appeared to be a candid hint from William that his sexual preference runs into areas which Narnia author C.S. Lewis, as a committed Christian, might have found uncomfortable. One can only imagine the headlines had Daniel ( Read more... )

OH GOOD, YOU'RE HERE.

I PRETTY MUCH 100% AGREE. Like I know journalists exaggerate stuff and like to make drama but...it just seems so risky to do unless you're pretty sure it's going to go somewhere, you know? And DID YOU WATCH THE VIDEO BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO.

I COMPLETELY AGREE ABOUT THE GEORGIE THING. She totally gave him this look or looks, more than once) like, "Wait, do you realize what you're saying right now?" in a hey-I-know-you're-gay-but-no-one-else-does kind of way. The nervous laughter, Will's awkward pause, AHHH!! ALL OF IT IS SPECULATION, YES, BUT IT'S LIKE, SO OBVIOUS. BUT THEN AGAIN WE OVERANALYZE EVERYTHING AND WE WANT HIM TO BE GAY SO BADLY WE'RE MOST LIKELY IMAGINING THINGS.

But no, in all seriousness, it does seem like, kind of forward of the writers to outright question his sexuality like that, but it was also a bad sort of joke on Will's part if he was only joking. To make two comments of that nature with the kind of countenance he had (which, I'm actually rather impressed that he didn't start...IDK blushing or something. For an awkward situation he handled himself pretty well, I thought) seems like going a bit far. *waits not-so-patiently for him to come out properly ( ... )

YES. It's sort of like she looked shocked, and then realised she looked shocked and tried to cover it up, but then didn't know how else to look because she had no idea where he was going with it and how she was supposed to be reacting, because she didn't know he was going to say that. And she laughs at the centaur thing, but then is like "..." waiting to see what else Will says ( ... )

OMG I'M THINKING ABOUT THIS WAY TOO MUCH. But. I was sort-of kind-of writing a little ficlet based on this, and I realized that this question doesn't make sense at all. So yes, I totally think that the interviewer was asking about the romance storyline (which means that Will brought in the "female centaur" bit when he didn't need to), because otherwise, he'd be asking if Peter was jealous of Caspian making out with his SISTER. (Not like that's news to us, or anything...) But then the only option that does make sense is that Peter is jealous of Susan for making out with Caspian. I LOL'd at this realization far too much.

(And yes, I also realize that no one looked into it this far when it happened, but I HAVE TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS. SOMEONE SAVE ME. STOP THE MADNESS).

OMG NO I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN. That was kind of what I realised, too, and was going to say to someone, and then I realised that the speculation had died down. Like...ack, it's hard to explain, isn't it? But the interviewer basically means "So Anna and Ben got to do a romance storyline, are you jealous of them for getting the chance to do that?" (I'm pretty sure that's what he means, even though he's talking about it in terms of Susan and Caspian) so Will's reply should be something like what it is later, saying that he was really more interested in the stunts and stuff and doesn't really mind about not having a romance storyline ( ... )
