Okay, so I know I've been remiss in posting for a while, unless it was fic/50 related. But I must tell you that my heart? Has been completely captured. By a gen Narnia fic How did this happen?

( Cut for ramblings about Narnia and incest and my strong love for a fictional character. )

Thank you for linking these-- I have so much love for, I guess you'd call it familial bonding via PTSD, only not? I don't know. Just... fics like this that paint the characters as such a mystery, so unaccesable to outsiders, even their own parents, and yet the bond between the four of them is undeniable. You see it a lot in the Supernatural fandom, of course, but Narnia is just so ripe for this kind of story-- like you said, these are adults forced to relive their childhood after seeing so much... that's gonna leave some scars behind. My only problem is that there's not like a thousand more of these fics. I'm officially smitten.

YES. To all of this, babe. Seriously.

I mean, they are basically adults with no time for the folly of children. Or of men, really. Not when they have led armies and lost comrades at the ages of ten and thirteen.I could completely get behind this actually happening. I love that one character refers to them as "the vicious bastard or the one with a complete lack of anything resembling a moral compass" because it just goes to show that even their peers regard them with thinly veiled wariness. They know these two men aren't quite right, and from watching them together they must conclude that they were either raised by savages, or mentally unstable. Which they sort of are ( ... )
