Narnia! It's okay if I pretend it's about the bacchanalia.
Sufjan Stevens! It's okay if I pretend it's about Narnia. I actually love Sufjan Stevens. But he is totally singing about Narnia, if only because he is singing about Jesus. Class, raise your hands if you love Sufjan.
I have a playlist called 'foraslaaaan' (not related to the community) of songs I like to listen to when I fic. I will put this music up for ya'll someday. 'Clothes of Sand' by Nick Drake is totally Aslan's song for Susan, and I like listening to Massive Attack when mulling over Edmund. Edmund: what is it about him that recalls creepy trip-hop? I dunno, but I like it.
The LWW soundtrack is totes better than the PC soundtrack. LWW's music is pretty (omg 'Evacuating London'), but PC's music is jarring and doom-ish and kind of a mood-killer. Well, considering the movies, this isn't surprising. Also, 'Wunderkind' > 'The Call'.
Speaking of Narnia.
in-between seasons. Again for the kink meme.
liminalliz's prompt: Edmund/Jadis. pg13.
You inhale memories to exhale dreams, and at night Edmund sees her face, feels her cold fingers on his skin. She is promising him everything all over again, and he reaches for her.
It's just a dream, says Edmund-of-England, in his head. It's only in your mind. But Edmund-of-Narnia is silent; he knows that, here, shadows are more than an absence of light, and signs are meant to be followed.
Sometimes he sleeps little, but sometimes he sleeps the most out of all of them, and cannot be roused until his siblings bang on his door, yelling his name.

"If only," Phillip whinnies, "there is a way to make oneself wake up from dreams."
"But I never realize it's a dream," says Edmund, and is secretly relieved for it. He doesn't want to discover that maybe he would choose to stay asleep.
"Trust in the Lion," says the Horse. "The Witch's hold on you will lessen in time."
It is the end of autumn: the leaves are falling, and the Dryads' songs are brittle and melancholy. A chill wind blows from the north and Edmund shivers.

"Son of Adam," Jadis laughs, "do you fear me?"
Edmund replies, "I do not fear what I've already conquered."
And she laughs again, and he hates it. The Witch floats closer to him and Edmund lets her hold his face in her hands. Her breath is icy on his lips.
"Then," she says, "what are you doing here?"
