you know, at this point I'm really hoping the story doesn't disappoint

Suddenly I think I might have been wrong, and what we see in Caspian in PC isn't naivete at all, it's inexperience mixed with culture shock to the nth degree. Because seriously, there's so much culture shock there it isn't even funny, and it's about fifty different kinds of it, too. (I mean, you have the Narnians, and then you have the Pevensies, who are caught between two different cultures themselves, England and Old Narnian, which is completely different from the New Narnians, so basically everyone has culture shock. But Caspian especially.)

I think maybe that's something you can see in the scene with Reepicheep...

"You are a mouse", it's like.... What the fuck is going on?

And then... Need to think fast, got to keep it from killing me.... "Well.. blablabla... NOBLE mouse!"

*laughs* Exactly. Caspian may be in over his head, but holy cow, can he think fast on his feet. He has to be able to, otherwise the Narnians would have killed him. (Although it was just blind luck that he dropped the horn and let Nikabrik and Trumpkin and Trufflehunter see it.)
