the thing is that edmund's always been the good one. peter was always out being a juvenile delinquent and barely passing high school -- not that he's not smart, more that he doesn't give a damn -- and susan seemed to embrace the opportunity to be crazyass peter pevensie's sister and was out at parties and with boys and, like, stealing cars or whatever -- there came a point when susan seemed in danger of sliding into peter's line of work.
that was before she actually did, of course.
but edmund keeps his head down, does well in school, plays varsity sports, doesn't get into fights or drink or do drugs or any of that -- well, he drinks a little bit, but not that much. it's high school, after all. he has a plan that involves yale and a jd and taking over the known universe.
but he's still peter pevensie's younger brother, and that has certain connotations within the school system. he's on the cross-country team, not the football team, but they're both out on the field at the same time, and some of the football boys are talking about their nights.
"and i was going to get some tail, man, you know how great susan pevensie's tits are and i bet her cunt's just as --"
edmund stops stretching, stands up.
"-- and that asshole brother of hers, you know, crazyass peter pevensie comes over and you'd think he'd snapped his fingers and said, like, fucking come or something, because the next thing you know susan's getting up and i'm holding her panties in my fucking hand --"
"edmund!" eustace hisses from next to him.
"-- anyway, whatever, there are plenty of other chicks at the party, so whatever. and later i go out to throw up and what do i see? peter fucking susan on the hood of my goddamn car, which is where i wanted to be. but he's got that short skirt of hers, you know the one i mean, up and his jeans down around his ankles and they're actually fucking, you know? i mean, i knew she was easy, but her goddamn brother, man, that's some serious kind of fucked up --"
"hey," edmund says, "asshole." and punches him in the face. "shut the fuck up about my sister!" he yells, right before the entire football team descends on him.
which is how starting a riot between the football team and the cross-country team is all peter's fault, even though peter wasn't even in school that day.
