I want to write girl!Peter/Caspian a really ridiculous amount. (The last time I wanted to write het this much, I ended up writing Into the Woods Baker/Cinderella fic. The time before that it was Beauty and the Beast Lumiere/Belle.) I don't even know why.

Well, okay, some of it would be the dialogue.

Scenario: There has been a minor cave-in in the How. Caspian and Peta are trapped in a cave for several hours. Peta's claustrophobia kicks in, and Caspian keeps her calm. Near the tail-end of this they start making out. Then Edmund and the rescue team break through.
Edmund: You know, we can come back later, if you're busy.
Peta: No, now is good. Now is excellent. *clambers out*
Caspian: *follows, a little disappointed*
Peta: *turns around and grabs the collar of Caspian's shirt* And you can come with me. *drags him down the tunnel to her room.*
Caspian: *grins like an idiot*
Edmund: Well, shit.

Caspian: I hope you're not offended that I, ah, took advantage of your sister...
Edmund: *hysterical laughter*

Peta: What do you mean, you asked Edmund? So long as he's not in my bed, he doesn't get a vote in who is.
Caspian: *chokes*

Caspian: *suffering from dreams of conjugal bliss* Marry me.
Peta: *hits him* Do you want to die a horrible messy death?
Caspian: What?
Peta: I'm going to assume history has forgotten how many of my fiances died instead of assuming you have a death wish.
Caspian: Maybe you just never met the right one?
Peta: Do you really want to bet your life on that?
Caspian: *grins wildly*
Peta: What? WHAT?
Caspian: You care.
Peta: I most certainly do not!
Caspian: You really care!
Peta: I --
Caspian: *kisses her*

Susan: I'm worried about Peta. She just seems --
Edmund: I really don't want to say this, but --
Susan: -- like she's not all here. I think Narnia's getting to her.
Edmund: She's like that every time she's having really great sex.
Susan and Lucy: ...
Edmmund: I said I didn't want say it.

Guys, I am SO ASHAMED. This is, like, the height of fantasy romance. All we're missing is a knight on a white horse, and that's only because Caspian's horse is black and the unicorn from LWW tragically died. Although I'm not sure a unicorn is what's really needed here...

It doesn't look good for anyone if the High King keels over in front of the door in the air. (And good luck getting the Telmarines to go through after that!)

Now I'm thinking about pregnant!Peta and what would have happened if Rilian had been her son instead of Ramandu's daughter's. Somehow I kind of doubt she would have been out there with the ladies of the court to get stung to death by a giant snake. *rolls eyes* Although...if she's physically prevented from going back to England because she's pregnant, then waht happens to her in England? Does she just vanish? Do the other three hang around and go, "Well, shit, now what?" Or is time suspended until she does go back to England/dies in Narnia/God knows what? (In which case Voyage would be interesting: "Edmund, Lucy, my brother- and sister- in-law!" "OH MY GOD WHERE IS PETA? IS SHE HERE?" "She has a baby! I have a son!" "OH MY GOD.")

Wow, that's a rare occasion where it is Edmund and Lucy uttering all those OMGs. *rotfl*

Just goes to show that even legendary rulers can still be surprised!

'....You swanned off on a sea voyage and left her defending the country. I'm sorry, have you seen what happens when Peta has to handle the diplomacy stuff?'
'The seasickness was NOT PRETTY.'
'Oh. Yeah. Forgotten about that.'

Eustace : 'you are not getting me to believe that that bitch of a sister of yours didn't run off with a farm-hand.'

Ramandu's daughter : :moony eyes of love-trance:
caspian : '......'
Edmund : :elbows him to get him out of the trance: hssst. Remember, you're married. To my sister. Who likes lopping heads off.
Lucy : 'Also, you have no idea what this one is like in bed. I bet she's a 'lie back and think of Narnia' type.

Edmund: Sure, if by 'farmhand' you mean 'Prince-Consort of Narnia.'

Edmund: Remember, I can kill you just as dead as Peta, and she's not here right now!

If Peta *was* hanging out with the court ladies, she'd sure as hell be armed to the teeth. They'd have rushed to her rescue only to find her hacking the serpent to death.

But *would* she be prevented from leaving Narnia? I wonder if she'd have been sent back to England and had the baby there? Riley. *nods*

Either way, it's all four of them or none. Five, I guess, if Caspian clung to her tunic on the way out. Er, six, counting Riley. *laughs*

Either that, or the serpent would be the reason she's forced out of Narnia and back into England. *is kind of fond of this idea, actually* The rest of the Pevensies are in England -- either she's missing for a couple years (to account for VotDT) or there's no time-bump; she's just suddenly sixteen again and about to go off to school. In which case NOBODY is happy, because she went through this shit already, not again!
