Yay!! thank you thank you!!

I really liked the discussion about how Caspian needs to learn how to rule on his own, because of course the Pevensie's can't stay forever, which Edmund certainly knows.

I don't think you made Edmund too much of a girl, if that's what you were worried about. He went through a very horrible event, and of course something like that is going to come back to haunt you every once in a while. Great chapter! : )

Thank you!

I guess. It was just random and melodramatic. It wasn't originally planned - it just kind of happened, and then I couldn't cut it out. :P

Again, thanks! :D

I'm glad you didn't cut it out. I think Edmund very clearly shows us in this chapter that he *is* a king, and that he can be assertive when he needs to be, whereas a girl would probably just back off and let Caspian have his way. Edmund went through a tramatic event, and the guilt from his betrayal still bothers him... I think I would scream sometimes too, if I almost killed my siblings and a bunch of other people, and then had good things happen to me.

Hmm, sorry I put so much up there. I really love what you're doing with Edmund (and Caspian, too, of course).

[ladylapislazuli]

Good! Thanks again! :D Ah, that's a very good point... I don't know WHAT I would do if I was nearly caused my siblings to die. How could you live with yourself? Edmund's allowed to break down once in a while. :P

Not a problem at all! I like conversations. :D Goodness knows I don't get many intelligent ones as school... It's a very welcome change. Thanks again! :D

[ladylapislazuli]

Glad to hear it! Oh, that would be awkward... I hate it when everyone knows better than me. And it would be particularly bad if it was your mother-in-law.

Not in my head he won't. I love him all the same. But God, the melodrama... he wouldn't let me cut it out. :P Ah well.

Thanks! :D

That's completely true. Poor, confused Edmund. So much angst... XD But I adore him because of it.

That's Peter in a nutshell. Always the hero. He has the best intentions, but gets it wrong on occasion. :D

Such a great chapter. ;)

Poor Ed and his self-doubt. Of course he deserves Caspian. ♥ It's so sweet how Peter comforted Ed and thank God, he didn't get one of his fits. xD

I'm sooo sorry that I didn't comment on the last two chapters, but I had loads of work and barely time to read let alone comment on anything. They're awesome though.

Thanks!

He strikes me as the doubtful type, for all his wisdom. He's good at sorting out other people's issues, but his own are another matter entirely. I'm a sucker for the family aspect of stories, so I just couldn't help myself.

Not a problem! You're not obliged to. :P I completely understand though. A new term at school, and I've already got loads of assignments... Thank you! :D
