Dude, you know what I suddenly want to write? Fic where Caspian gets temporarily transported to the Golden Age, if only for the Peter and Edmund banter.

Edmund: So, who is he?
Peter: He says he's the king of Narnia.
Edmund: Does this mean we've been having some sort of extended identity crisis? I know! You're really a fisherman, and you're so repressed about it that you can't go on the open sea without throwing up.
Caspian: ...
Edmund: Or a pigkeeper. You'd make a brilliant pigkeeper...
Peter: Well, he's clearly not the king of Narnia.
Edmund: No, he doesn't look very Narnian. Westerlands, probably.
Peter: Caspian isn't a Natarene name.
Edmund: Does sound a bit Telmarine, though.
Caspian: The Telmarines have been at peace with Narnia for two years now!
Peter: Did they get that message?
Edmund: No, they didn't. They were still raiding over our border last I heard. I think Lu's taking care of that.
Caspian: ...
Edmund: [unpronounceable gargle of foreign words]
Caspian: ...
Peter: Well, he doesn't seem like he speaks Telmarine.
Caspian: ...of your courtesy, my lords, perhaps this conversation would go easier if I knew who you were.
Edmund: Definitely not Telmarine. I think they use your profile for target practice in Telmar.
Peter: I am Peter the High King of Narnia, and this is my brother, King Edmund of Narnia.
Caspian: [brain explodes]
Edmund: [kindly] This is why you can't be the king of Narnia.
