AHH, LOVE IT! I still can't believe you've never read Narnia! I still sometimes check the back of wardrobes to see if Narnia is back there. <3

I love that Charlotte was named after the author of Narnia, Darlton totally did that on purpose. ;D

I don't know, I tend to avoid them... but don't know the reason. Maybe I just get distracted by a lot of things?

...and that reference made me want to do the research. I remember an entry in Lostpedia... let me quote:

"In connection to her name being a reference to C.S. Lewis, Charlotte's mother tries to convince her that the Island is imaginary, similar to the character Susan from Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia, who becomes convinced that Narnia is imaginary despite her time spent there."

(that inspired this drabble)

I read them when I was young, and it never felt right to me about what happened with Susan. :\ Did you see any of the movies? They're very good, especially the first one!

I remember you talking about this idea a while ago, I'm glad to finally see it! And I'm glad you requested this prompt, because I wrote it in about 2 minutes, lol. About to go post. :P

Oh, no! I haven't! I think it's because... well... it's Disney (though, now that I remember... LOST is also Disney)--- and I prefer watching Harry Potter :/

That gave me goosebumps! ♥

(And ITA that you should check out the Narnia books and at least the first movie. They're my second favorite thing, right after Lost! :) ♥)

Wow, thanks! Yeah, I think someday I'll check them out... I need to finish the fisrt book of LOTR :/ (such a procastinator when it comes to reading!!)

[dance_the_dance]

They're very short, I think all the books together are about as long as one LOTR book. :D (I like LOTR just fine, btw, but I prefer Narnia. ♥)

Though I know little about the story, I find Susan's destiny really interesting. Some people say CS Lewis was going to write more about her, but, you know... he died.

Thanks ♥

This is so beautiful! My heart, sigh ...

I love that you took this path with Daniel and Charlotte's mother -- I totally always imagined her would try to convince her or something -- and the way you built Narnia into the story (love that little tidbit about Charlotte's character!). Just wonderful!
