Shakespeare: So, in Macbeth, the forest doesn't actually move, it's just an army holding branches

C.S. Lewis & J.R.R. Tolkien: And we took that personally

My take on what the Pevensies' patronus/houses would be if they went to Hogwarts:

Peter: Gryffindor, Lion

I know this one seems obvious, but seriously. Peter was given a lot of responsibility from a young age, but he never once complained, instead taking to it graciously. He's a natural born leader, and his siblings and his subjects look up to him. He's fiercely protective of his siblings and will stop at nothing to keep them safe, including going up against a wolf to keep his little sisters safe despite his lack of training. He's brave, bold, often brash and impulsive, proud and stubborn, strong-willed and noble. He's also definitely got a soft side for his siblings, but them only, unless you're a close and dear friend like Tumnus and the Beavers. Lions are often called the "king of beasts," and Peter wasn't called "High King Peter the Magnificent" for nothing. Lions are brave, strong, noble, and leaders of their pride. They're also gentle with their cubs and teach and lead them just as lioness' do.

Susan: Ravenclaw/Slytherin, Doe

I could see Susan being either. Susan isn't any less brave than her siblings, but she's clearly less impulsive and brash, instead preferring to strategize and think through her plan of attack as seen when she tells Peter not to charge the wolf on the river. She's intelligent and quick-witted and more grounded, as seen when she tells Peter that they should stop and think their actions through before crossing a potentially dangerous river. She's also ambitious and resourceful. You see this when she, when it becomes apparent that they're to remain in Narnia for the remainder of the war, immediately goes to practice with her bow. She, while a gentle and maternal queen, was quite influential and powerful in her own right.She never let anything stand in her way. The Doe patronus represents gentleness yet strong determination. Fiercely protective of her loved ones, as displayed through her caring and nurturing nature. With her high level of intuition and sensitivity, she battles life's challenges with the utmost grace and vigilance.

Edmund: Gryffindor/Slytherin, Tiger

we all know his character was based off of Judas, and the tiger patronus represents a unique sense of courage and willpower, able to rise above conflicts and pass through all forms of adversity with grace and skill. They're highly protective and territorial, going to great lengths to defend their loved ones and home. Edmund, while certainly cunning and ambitious, is also brave and bold. He's often seen by Peter's side as they charge into battle, leading the troops alongside his brother. He helps others, and like Peter, is chivalrous as well. Like a Gryffindor, he's impulsive and brash, as seen when he jumps into a fight in the train station to help his brother, as well as when he confronts the white witch and breaks her staff in half leading to his stab wound. Like Slytherin, however, he's cunning, as seen when he manipulates Miraz into dueling Peter by toiling with his emotions and poking at his pride. He's misunderstood like a lot of Slytherins are, as well. I think he could be either.

Lucy: Gryffindor, Otter

Lucy is 100% a Gryffindor, no doubt. I've seen a lot of people putting her in Hufflepuff, and while she is incredibly loyal and patient, she's incredibly brave and bold in her approach. She always puts others before herself and isn't afraid to get her hands dirty for a good cause. She's very skilled in sword fighting as well as archery, but she's also very kind and fair. As seen on the bridge where she stood off an entire army with only a dagger, she isn't afraid to tackle big challenges and has a need to prove herself, likely from being the youngest of four siblings. She's bold, as seen when she tells Peter that they're being too quick to fight. She speaks loud and proud about what she believes is right and will stand by her opinions. I think the Otter patronus suits her despite Aslan himself saying, "If she were any braver, she'd be a lioness," (which is also a clear indication of her Gryffindor spirit) because she's playful and curious. The Otter patronus represents life and purification, and we all know Lucy is pure and full of life. Otters are fearless and will pursue their curiosities as such. They're also associated with friendship, which I attribute to Lucy. She sees Narnians as her equals and has no trouble befriending new people/animals.

Rewatching Narnia and thinking about how after the Pevensies came back they returned to war-rationed food after years of living with feasts

Just out of curiosity, If I decided to post my combination of every map of Narnia and Adjoining Lands + the Eastern Sea, how many people would be interested in seeing it, because I would like to share it because I have spent a lot of time on it. It is not yet finished and won’t be for a few months but when it is…

Request by @cokcola4112 : Narnia imagine being from America and introducing Elvis to Edmund and his siblings and sing them a song. | Word count: 644

I took a deep breath, rubbing my hands on my pants to make sure my palms weren’t too sweaty. Piano concerts always made me nervous and it was even worse knowing that my boyfriend and his entire family were in the audience. I walked onto the stage and took a seat in front of the piano, blinking a few times to get my eyes accustomed to the bright spotlight. The audience quieted down and I began to play. As I played, I got less nervous and just focused on the music. Before I knew it, the performance was over and the audience was clapping. I stood and bowed then quickly walked off stage. 

I looked through the audience until I found the person I was looking for. Edmund rushed over as soon as he saw me and gave me a hug that nearly knocked me over. “You were incredible!” He said, “I knew almost all the songs.” I laughed, “Almost?” I asked him. “Well, I didn’t know the last one.”

I looked at him with the most confused expression. “You didn’t know the Elvis Presley song?” He looked back at me, just as confused. “No. Should I?” I blinked. “Well, you know who Elvis is right?” I asked. “Um, no not really.” My mouth fell open in shock. Just then, the rest of his siblings found us. 

Per usual, Peter spoke first. “Mum and Dad had to get going but they said you did great Y/N.” I smiled. “Tell them I said thanks! And, by the way, your brother here doesn’t know who Elvis Presley is. Can you believe that?” 

“Oh. Should he?” Peter asked. I looked at the faces of all the Pevensie siblings. None of them looked as shocked as I felt. “You’re telling me none of you know Elvis? This is unbelievable. What do they teach you in England?” Edmund elbowed me and I laughed. “Okay, you’re all coming over to my place. It’s education time.” I said.

The rest of the night was spent watching Elvis performances and learning some of his most famous songs. At about midnight, Lucy, Susan, and Peter left. When it was just me and Edmund, we settled onto the couch, his arms around me. “I still can’t believe you’d never heard of Elvis Presley.” I said. “Hey I know who he is now, you can’t keep teasing me about this.” He responded. “Oh, you have no idea how long I am going to tease you about this.” I said, laughing.

We sat in silence for a while before Edmund jumped up suddenly, scaring me half to death. “Perform it again.” He said. I was utterly confused. “What?” “The Elvis song. Perform it again.” I shook my head. “Absolutely not.” “But I’ll appreciate it more now.” He said. “Please?” I looked at his face, and couldn’t so no to those beautiful, pleading eyes. “Fine. Just this once.”

I stood up and walked over to the keyboard I had in my living room. I looked over to Edmund. “It’s not going to sound the same as it did in the auditorium,” I explained. He just shrugged. “That’s alright.” I played the first few notes of Can’t Help Falling in Love and started to sing along. Edmund sat next to me and fiddled with my hair as I played. The whole performance, he never once took his eyes off me. As I finished, I looked up at him shyly. “Beautiful.” He said. With that, he leaned in to kiss me and I embraced him passionately. His lips were insanely soft and it always surprised me whenever we kissed because his hands were so rough. After he pulled away from the kiss, he tucked a strand of hair away from my face and smiled. “Thanks for introducing me to Elvis.” He said. I shrugged and smiled back. “My pleasure.”

Just had Turkish delight....ur telling me Edmund Pevensie was selling out his entire family for this shit? Be serious

I am DONE with this world I am ment to be on a quest in Middle Earth, training to be a Jedi to protect the Republic , Running through the forests of Narnia!

A series of connected vignettes that detail the Golden Age of Narnian history, during which Kings Peter and Edmund and Queens Susan and Lucy learn to govern, protect, and love their realm, even by learning how to leave it.

Scary and beautiful. Yet also chilling nature at its most complex.

sitting here watching The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe (1979) wishing my 19 year old brother had picked any other movie in the world.

C.S. Lewis, from “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”

Yearly Reminder that C.S Lewis encouraged his fans to write fanfiction about Susan Pevensie becoming a friend to Narnia and reuniting with her family once again.

Literally inviting his fans to write Susan’s adult, angsty character development with a happy ending.

Do your duty fans. Write that fanfiction.

The Pevensie children are too old for their age.

Their mom notices, at the dinner table. She sees no nagging children, no stupid fights. She sees Lucy eating and speaking with perfect manners, Edmund analysing the economy and war with concerning skill, Susan being gracious but poised, like a diplomat.

Their father sees it in Peters eyes the first time they get into a fight. When he moves to punish Edmund for speaking out of turn, Peter calls him out on it. When his gaze meet his eldest son's, he's leveled by the war he sees behind it, the tensed muscle in his arm, the knuckles white around his knife. He's seen that before, in other soldiers. He doesn't know how to react.

Other children notice, too. Talking to all the Pevensie kids at the same time is like being the only one left out of a secret, and the way they touch and tease each other speaks of a history far deeper than their polite demeneor lets on. And when they walk they fall in line, as if there is a natural hierarchy between them.

The first time anyone picks a fight with Edmund, Peter comes home with a three week suspension and blood around his mouth. He looks more alive than you've seen him in weeks.

When Susan gets back in the pool after Narnia, she wins all the contests. Coaches can't explain how to beat her, because they don't understand how she's doing it, either. She seems to almost disappear when underwater.

Lucy, always gay and golden-haired, starts dancing, and never misses a step. She moves with an elegance that no 10 year old should have, and all the girls want to be friends with her

Edmund soon becomes the best student in his faculty. He always seems to know the right thing to say, and teachers laud his ability to think through complex problems. His mouth does get him in trouble sometimes, but the boy seems uncatchable, always talking his way through the cracks. And if not?

No one actively fears Peter, but everyone is a little scared of him sometimes. He's tall for his age, sure, but there is something else, some other air that seems to give him an authority far beyond what's normal for a teenage boy. He's nice enough, but teachers can't stand it, and bullies learn very quickly that pissing him off means missing teeth and black eyes.

The Pevensies are not quite inhuman, but not fully mortal, either
