Crazy midterms are crazy. I've read Orlando and Wide Sargasso Sea in the last three days and far prefer the latter. It has no genderswapping (that was awesome), but it doesn't snap my suspension of disbelief either. So!

The first is more Narniafic, because the recent post inspired even more Cor/Aravis love, and my brain started coming up with excuses for more Adventures in Calormen.  Hey, Rabadash the Ridiculous Peacemaker will be making all sorts of friendly overtures.  Diplomatic missions!  And, and things.  So, Lasaraleen and Aravis and hints of Cor/Aravis fluff, but also the darker side of things too because it's creepier to leave them out.

But for that, I'd want a The Horse and His Boy adaptation, and I don't know how they'd make it less than horrifically offensive.

Anyway. Awhile back, I rewatched Prince Caspian -- look, I don't know why I do these things to myself, except that I love Edmund and ninja!Edmund makes me happy. Seriously, it's like a bunch of people realised that he'd been the Dragon all last movie and wanted to make very, very sure nobody missed that whole 'reformation' business. HEY GAIZ DON'T FORGET HE'S NOT A BAD KID ANYMORE. Um, how do we make them remember ... SEE, HE'S A NINJA FOR JE ASLAN!

Because obviously what Aslan needs is moar ninjas.

Yeah. I don't really care for it. (BUT EDMUND. <3)
