Guh. *I* keep getting inspirations that want to have me chasing off in all sorts of directions... I realised I need to write in a) Drinian b) Eustace c) Peter and d) Digory for the VOTD cycle (although thankfully the final two don't come in until the very end), AND the backstory keeps esploding on me so that if I'm not careful I'll be writing PC-as-remembered-on-VOTD. And my brain keeps careering off on ideas like 'what are the basic understandings about sexuality in Telmarine Narnia' and 'how did Golden Age Narnia understand sexuality' and 'wtf is up with Caspian, freakin' moron'. And I just invented a Telmarine empire, a war with Calormen, and pirates.
And somewhere in there I have to figure out what to do with Caspian and Edmund. Poor darlings, they spent two weeks fighting and screwing, and now they're on a boat where they CAN'T fight and it is inadvisable to bicker publically. What are they supposed to DO? They're not even friends...
