TEMPORARY HIATUS

Hello, everyone! I’ve been getting some really sweet messages, and I know I haven’t been posting a lot lately. Without diving into personal details, a lot has been going on with me--not necessarily my life, just some personal things. I’ve had a lack of motivation to do...well much of anything some days. So, I think instead of just avoiding Tumblr, I’m going to take an official hiatus from posting new content. Anything I would post would be lacking inspiration anyway. I will be answering private messages here and on my main blog! Hopefully, I’ll be back to my usual self sometime in September, and I really appreciate everyone who has reached out. 

Thank you, lovelies <3

Narnia was a lot warmer than England. And it was significantly less rain. All in all, the summer was too warm, for a hot cup of tea. Susan was the mastermind who thought of putting ice cubes in her cup of tea. Iced tea. All the Pevensies had an instant new craving. The Narnians too. The ice was sent as big cubes on ships from the North. The Giants had found a quite profitable business in sending what they had a lot of, to iced tea thirsty Narnians. Then some unrest filled the North. The ice giants didn’t send anymore ice. The summer was hotter than ever, and an entire nation had lost their most important supplier to sate their innocent addiction. It was a weak. Then two. A whole month went by with no word from the north.

An advisor came running in. “Your Majesties! The ice giants threaten to invade!”

Peter had had enough. “That is the last straw. First they take our ice, and now this? We have to fight the ice giants. We cannot accept this.”

Ahhh, I love it. This is so interesting, and I love the extra touch with the iced tea. Headcanon accepted! And I hope you continue this;)

1 Year Anniversary

So, this is actually very late as my one year was supposed to be on June 1st but here we are, several days later. Just wanted to say a big thanks to all of you for following me! Honestly, thanks to @edmundforpresident, @aslansblessings, @itsalwaysnarnia, and @healingcordial who were all the ones to inspire me to create this Narnia blog. And a big thanks @tumnusses, @pavratipatil, @hauntedthief, @sheisthehighqueen, @plummerpolly, and @istillliveinnarnia for being such cool people (and maybe even friends? can I call you guys that?) who are constantly inspiring me and motivating me to post on this blog. Thanks y'all for such an awesome year and I hope the ones to come will be equally as great, if not more!

I am so late, but I am so happy for you! I’m so happy you started your blog and your writing brings a smile to my face!

Could you do a Headcanon of what would happen if Peter, Edmund, and Caspian got hit with love potions? Please X,,,D

Avatar

Peter: 

  • In general, this guy is sweet to everyone 
  • And to top it, he has a really good grasp on what’s romantic 
  • So, when he somehow ends up under love potion, things get crazy 
  • Sighing forlornly, getting distracted in meetings, and let’s not even begin on the gorgeous poetry 
  • The object of his affections had better be prepared for all the magnanimous stunts 
  • He will literally fill her room with her favorite flowers
  • Even though he’s sneezing while trying to confess his love 
  • He sends her love letters three times a day filled with beautiful prose praising her very existence 
  • He even tried to get her name embroidered on tapestry in one of the parlors, but at that point his siblings intervened and cured him of the potion
  • He was so embarrassed when he snapped out of it, but even so he was more worried that the girl he had been “in love” with hadn’t been harmed or shamed in any way 
  • What a sweet guy

Edmund: 

  • Edmund was excellent at keeping his feelings to himself
  • He was so good that his siblings began to doubt he’d ever even had a crush before 
  • So it came as a shock to everyone when one day he waltzed into a diplomatic meeting and placed a rose in front of a girl 
  • This kid went from serious to absolutely lovestruck 
  • He would make every single topic into some pick up line or flirtatious joke
  • He was actually impressively smooth, but some of his comments were worrying 
  • He was constantly trying to talk to the girl or spend time with her, to the point where guards had to physically drag him away 
  • At which point, his anguished cries echoed down the halls 
  • He even wrote a song for her, which wasn’t half bad, and started singing it outside her window past midnight 
  • When his siblings finally got him free, he was actually dazed and didn’t remember anything  
  • He had turned several shades of dark red when they began to tell him the things he’d done 
  • He’d also avoid the girl who endured it all for several days, although he’d write her a long, well-worded apology for the trouble he’d caused 

Caspian: 

  • Like Peter, he was sweet in nature but also a bit of a natural flirt 
  • Under the effects of a love potion, he was worse
  • His flirting went from smooth to absolutely cringe worthy 
  • He would literally compare everything he saw to the object of his affections
  • Bad poetry comparing and contrasting her eyes to his bronze helmet 
  • He would kiss her hand every five seconds in a conversation, and if she pushed him away, he would clutch his heart dramatically and proclaim his heartbreak 
  • It was getting to the point where meetings and diplomatic decisions were either pushed off or revolved around the “love of his life” as he insisted on calling her publicly 
  • Also...Pet Names Galore 
  • Finally, his friends and advisors figured out how to free him and bring him back to normal 
  • He was slightly blushy for the next few days, but he tried his best to act like it never happened 
  • He met the girl privately to apologize for his behavior and gifted her with whatever she wanted to make up for it

Hope this was okay! I found this idea kinda of funny ;D

When the war in Narnia ended, they honored the veterans. They honored those who fought for what they believed in. They were celebrated. They were war heroes. And for every single day, Lucy despised it. They honored those who had been better killers, or those who avoided the killing all together. People on the streets thanked them. Offered their gratitude. Said that without them no one would be alive. And Lucy met them. And she thanked them too. Because she knew they had fought for something she believed in. The fight wasn’t won by her brothers alone. Nor all the lieutenants. It was the citizens. The people of Narnia who had won. But in war no one wins. Everyone loses. The question is only about who lost more. Every day she met with widows. With kids that had lost both of their parents. With single fathers who had no idea how to raise their kids, and single mothers who knew as little as the single fathers. She met with grandmothers who were the sole survivors of their families. She felt the grief. and grieved with them. When the second Spring in Narnia rolled around she declared for anyone that would like to hear it.

“Today we honor those we have lost. Those who have family left that grieve every single day. We honor those who gave the highest price for all others freedom. We honor the fallen. We honor their family. For the memory of those lost will never be forgotten.”

Narnia celebrated that day ever since.

this is gorgeous

Do you know any good narnian fics?

Several! If you go on my “narnia fics” tag on the blog, you’ll find some recs from me and other people to search for on ff.net. @queensusan has a section on her blog for fic recs as well. I’d recommend any narnia imagine blog as well, since we have amazing writers. @narniadrabbles has tons to look through. @healingcordial has even more to look through. @edmundforpresident has this amazing series she did last summer, if you want to go check that out. All the best in your fanfic quest:)

Hi Alice!!! I just read your Edmund and Caspian friendship hc and loved it! And I was just wondering if you have some hc's about Edmund's infamous suitors? We always see Susan with her suitors but not so much as Ed with his :) Thanks ❤️

Hehe, thank you!!! And yesssss, oh my gosh, can you imagine? 

  • Edmund’s first suitor appeared when he was only twelve 
  • He had a bit of a growth spurt, and puberty was starting to hit
  • And he caught the eye of this princess who was 11 
  • There was only a year difference, but she had a hopeless crush on him
  • She would follow him around EVERYWHERE 
  • During important meetings, she would attend despite not having the need to just to stare at Edmund 
  • Edmund didn’t actually know what was up until he told Peter how this girl was creeping him out, and Peter just laughed 
  • He told Edmund exactly what was happening, and Edmund had never turned so red from embarrassment 
  • Thankfully, Peter was more in the spotlight and his next suitor didn’t appear until he was sixteen 
  • She was a lady from another smaller province and she had a very…peculiar way of complimenting him 
  • “Oh, Edmund…your brown eyes remind me of the twigs in my garden.” 
  • “My lord, your skin is as white as paper…it makes you so beautiful and fragile.” 
  • “King Edmund, your ears are quite outstanding aren’t they!” 
  • He was never quite sure if she was insulting him or complimenting him
  • Edmund tried to squash her advances by pushing one of his knights onto her 
  • Turns out his knight was far more interested and actually ended up courting the girl 
  • His next notable suitor came when he was eighteen
  • He had just come of age in Narnia, and a ball was held in his honor 
  • He got the usual attention from young ladies, but at that point he had learned how to politely decline 
  • Or sick Lucy and Susan on them–both were effective 
  • One widow in her forties seemed to wave them off and give him some peace at the ball 
  • She was really sweet to him, and Edmund pitied her since she had just lost her husband and never had the chance to have children 
  • She extended her visit at Cair, and she and Edmund actually got along well 
  • He thought of her as a mother figure…but she–er–had some other intentions 
  • It wasn’t until Susan gently broke the news to Edmund 
  • He was sooo horrified, and slightly disgusted
  • After some help from Peter, the lady finally left Edmund alone 
  • After the initial shock died down, his siblings had a good laugh about it…and he couldn’t help joining along 
  • When he was in his early twenties, he had one suitor that nearly caused a fire
  • She was not very nice at all, but she appeared to be in front of Edmund 
  • She flirted with him horribly…honestly, she was very bad
  • Edmund tried so many things…gently letting her down, bluntly letting her down
  • He tried to get Susan, Lucy, and even Peter to discourage her 
  • He got so desperate, he asked one of his good lady friends to act as his suitor for a short while 
  • Not even that pushed her off 
  • In the end, he went to her father and told him what had happened 
  • His suitor came storming in a horrifically ugly dress with so many feathers and claimed that she would start a war based on unrequited love
  • Of course, the others in the room chuckled at her expense
  • Her hand motions grew more animated, and she didn’t see the lit candle that caught fire on the feather from her sleeve 
  • She started running around wildly, and would’ve caught the room on fire if Edmund didn’t throw a glass of water on her singed sleeve
  • She was SOOO angry, but everyone in the room started laughing at the ridiculous situation 
  • Her father apologized to Edmund for her behavior, but she never visited Cair again
  • None of the Pevensies could say they minded 

Sorry ya’ll. My brain came up with some strange things just now. Haha…but I hope it made you laugh a little. 

Can we have a long post with Edmund’s suitor stories? Cuz honestly they would be hilarious.

Avatar

Imagine one suitor tried to use a “love potion”. Long story short bad things happened, she was banished and Edmund can never live it down.

Oh my gosh! Like he was totally lovestruck and he said the stupidest things but he denies it.

"Edmund, you called her more beautiful than a rose petal." "Rose petal, what the--No I did not. Peter, you're lying. I would never say anything like that."

Peter and Hermione headcanon if you can, they seem like a good pair!

They probably are, but I just don’t know Hermione that well as I’m not in the fandom. I’m sorry >.@digorykirke or @edmundforpresident?

Sorry, anonnie

Um. I have a headcanon that out of all the Kings and Queens of Narnia Susan is the one that is always awake at odd hours.

Avatar

Actually, I can totally see this. It’s my personal headcanon that Peter and Lucy were morning people, and Edmund and Susan were night owls. Think of this...

  • Susan always tried to go to bed early, since it seemed sensible 
  • But for some reason, her body just didn’t shut down and neither did her brain
  • In England, she actually loved school, but not often did she learn the things she craved
  • So, she would often sneak into her father’s study and steal a few books which she hid in her room
  • When Lucy was asleep, she would take them out and read them with a flashlight, devouring each and every word 
  • These weren’t fiction books either
  • They were nitty gritty philosophy books or rhetoric books
  • Fast forward to Narnia, and her body had not adjusted either 
  • She had a schedule though 
  • She would actually go to bed promptly between 11-12am, but she only managed to sleep an hour or so before she was up again 
  • She would sometimes read, sometime write letters, and a few times she actually felt adventurous 
  • She explored the castle alone, and no one but the guards knew about it
  • Because of her odd hours, she formed a good relation with Narnia’s night security, and they had a great respect for her 
  • She also used this time to check on her siblings 
  • More than once, she’d calm Peter or Edmund down from a nightmare 
  • And more than once, she would close Lucy’s window when she found her sister shivering in the cold 
  • Nobody knew about her odd hours until much later when Edmund had late work and had accidentally wandered into the wrong hall on his way to his chambers 
  • He found Susan exchanging information with some of the guards about Narnia’s wellbeing and the conditions of the poorer villages at night 
  • Susan never adjusted her sleeping schedule
  • Unfortunately, when she left Narnia behind and attended parties, these odd hours were filled up with parties

What do you think would have happened if Edmund had entered the wardrobe first, not Lucy?

So, then wouldn’t he have met Mr. Tumnus first? 

  • Well, I’m guessing since he talked to the White Witch, he had no sense of stranger danger either 
  • He’d probably end up going with Mr. Tumnus anyway for tea
  • The conversation would’ve been dull 
  • Edmund would sulky, and Mr Tumnus would try to fill in the void
  • But after a little while…and some tea…Edmund starts relaxing a bit and asking Tumnus questions
  • He finds the stories of his father and of the war before the winter very fascinating 
  • He could’ve probably related a bit more 
  • Just as he’s getting acquainted and comfortable with this faun who actually seemed to listen to him, he let his guard down and cue Mr. Tumnus putting him to sleep 
  • When he wakes up and finds Tumnus crying, he’d feel really out of place
  • Hearing that Tumnus planned to betray him, Edmund snaps
  • Suddenly grows very cold again and doesn’t want anything to do with Tumnus 
  • He doesn’t even comfort the faun and just bolts
  • He can’t really find his way through the woods since his sense of direction is very poor and also there are no clean roads
  • I imagine Tumnus catches up to him eventually and helps him back, which Edmund is very reluctant to follow 
  • When he returns home, he says nothing of the magical land 
  • He knows Peter won’t believe him, Susan would call him stupid, and Lucy…well, he didn’t really want her to know his secret 
  • So, all in all, he would never tell them 
  • But then Aslan gets them back again with the whole Macready thing 
  • Assuming Lucy hadn’t visited as well, they would be completely lost in the woods until some talking animal (probably Mr. Beaver) comes to their rescue 
  • The idea seems insane–them kings and queens? 
  • Edmund would’ve stuck with his siblings the entire time since he hadn’t met the Witch 
  • They would’ve gone home, and if Edmund were to finally come clean about the whole Mr. Tumnus thing, Peter and Susan would’ve assumed the place was dangerous 
  • They would’ve gone back…Narnia would continue being in a perpetual winter

All in all, it would’ve been very sad and hopeless in the end:( I think there’s a reason Lucy, with her kind and forgiving heart, was sent into the wardrobe first.
