Prince Caspian rewatch notes:
-Caspian has a sun on his chemise and Ray like embroidery, which I feel like is a parallel to Peter and a symbol of Caspian's destiny to take on Peter's mantle
- Also a possible reference to Aslan, perhaps it's Dr Cornelius' influence or a suggestion that there might be more part Narnian (or Archen) servants in Miraz's castle
-Caspian's naivety about Miraz's intentions may have been more believable if Ben Barnes wasn't in his mid 20s
-When Trumpkin first sees Caspian he's very obviously got a rubber knife
-Susan is reading a copy of the Picture Post that was published on December 9th 1939 featuring a photo of a girl in the Land Army, so as this was probably 1941 this is an old issue
-This definitely shows her practical and logical nature and might suggest that her role as Queen in Narnia may have focused on the practical elements of farming, land management, supplying their armies etc
- There are at least four schools shown in the Underground scene, St Finbars, Hendon House, a boy's school with a red uniform and a possibly mixed sex school with a grey uniform
-St Finbars' crest is a varient on the Tudor Rose - a lot of the Narnian leather belts/straps have rose motifs
-Hendon house has a cross with three stars over it, which also feels very Narnian and looks quite knightly
-Cair Paravel's ruins look to be in pretty good shape for being 1000s of years old. In our world, when a castle is abandoned, people tend to repurpose the stones and timbers. However, due to the Telmarines' superstition they probably left it completely alone
-There's a big wild rose bush covering the ruins, adding to the rose motif
-Susan is the only one who's throne is partially intact, and she's the only one who survives the series
-On the Telmarine Lord's thrones there is a sigil of their mask-helmet over a horizontal spear with a a personalised image beneath. Miraz has tentacles wrapping around shields, probably a nod to their piratical origins
-Lucy's dress sleeves look like an odd length, as if they were 3/4 length sleeves on a taller person
-Peter Dinklige's accent has definitely improved by the time GoT comes round
- The fact that Cornelius is a doctor suggests that there is a university somewhere in the wider Narnian world to award such a title
-I really like the fact that Edmund and Susan basically have their heads right next to each other
-The trees that move first for Lucy are silver birches. They're one of the last trees to loose their leaves in the winter and they start to bud relatively early

I relate to the Pevensie children because I too love snacks and would automatically trust anyone who offered me food

I wonder if Edmund ever learned that the Turkish Delight the queen gave him was enchanted.
How long did he think it was his fault, his greed, his heart, that decided to betray his family?
Did he die thinking it was all his fault? Did he die with the thought that he had been selfish enough to turn on his family for a pastry?
How long did he have to live with that guilt, or did Aslan assuage him of that with the conversation they had after getting him back from the witch?
Did knowing it was enchanted even help? Or did the guilt still eat away at him?

I love it whenever I come across a post about how the pevensies are holding up when they return to England or how other people notice they have changed, it just feel so nostalgic and makes me feel connected to them in another level
So if anyone writes something like that, please do tag me, I’ll be delighted to read it

we talk a lot about how the children of narnia seem different to people who knew them in the old world once they got back, but i don't think we talk enough about the emotional implications from their point of view. how it must feel like to have lived an entire life in a entirely different world. and sure in the old one they had their mother that they love and maybe some friends but who knows how many of those are still alive after the war. they've built an entire legacy in narnia, and were treated with respect only to go back to being teenagers. and let's be honest how fucking boring would the old world seem to them after that time spent in narnia. no talking animals. no deep magic. they've come back to the midst and broken remains of a world war after having rebuilt one from the remains of a different one: and this time they can do absolutely nothing. how much they would just wish to go HOME.
and can we talk about how narnia would have reacted when they left. just. gone. no note, no sign, no indication or trace of them. the finest kings and queens and saviours of your land and they just disappear. they've built friends in narnia as well, they've built trust and teams and connections that they'd never be able to replicate in finchley, and i can't stop thinking about how much they must've missed their friends. also on the other side: how god awful would people like mr tumnus and the beavers have felt when their best friends just left and no one knew why. they didn't even say goodbye.
and then a year later, finally going back to narnia only to find their entire legacy in ruins must have felt... crushing. they have no idea how long it's been except for a really fucking long time. they don't know how narnia is doing, don't know what happened to their friends. "everyone we knew, mr tumnus and the beavers. they're all gone"
and then only to find that the freedom of the narnians that they themselves fought for has been oppressed again, and themselves only a mere myth. all magic has seemingly gone, the animals no longer sentient.
i just... the 2nd movie is oh so sad and complex and i feel empty inside

Time moves differently in Narnia. Four kids who have probably never been away from either of their parents are now separated from both. Dad's off at war, mom is hunkering down, scared, alone, in London. The blast that destroys their house could come at any moment.
Keep in mind that the kids have NO CLUE when they enter Narnia (or at anytime until they exit the wardrobe at the end) that time passes differently at home than in Narnia.
They must be worried sick about their mother, who probably thinks they are dead. All their friends, relatives, teachers, everyone must be frantic with worry over their disappearance. They probably assume the Professor is getting questions from the police, and how would he explain that the children really haven't GONE ANYWHERE but that they aren't here?
As disappointing as a life of being children again must have been, I would think it would be a relief to finally know that no one mourned you, no one missed you. What a relief that must have been, even in the midst of the hurt at having to leave your beloved Narnia behind.

I totally forgot to post this before, but last year I commissioned this absolutely gorgeous art of Peter Pevensie from @irlplasticlamb. They were totally amazing and I'm totally in love, isn't it brilliant?!

okay but imagine a narnia fic with the reader being from our time and the pevensies and caspian just being highly confused at what they were on about and dont even get me started on outfits because they were from the 40s/ “medieval” times, our fashion would be a scandal! if someone is talented enough to write this please do and tag me in it
