Rereading The Lies of Locke Lamora is making me want to write the AU where the Pevensie are the best damn thieves in the business and Caspian is a mark who then becomes their newest recruit. Set in a fantasy kingdom, of course.

We are now on version friggin' three of Dust 3; I think I've written, like, seven thousand words for this chapter overall counting the two cut versions. It's all talkyface and exposition; I need some action here! I'll have Peter do something rash; that always works well.

Current crisis of the moment: take two English classes next semester or two history classes? I'd do both, but that puts me over the credit limit by one credit (it wouldn't if I wasn't taking band; that's the one credit. And Japanese is four credits, what the hell, everything else is three). I have to take ENLS200; it's a major requirement. The other English class I'd take would be Intro to Creative Writing, which meets once a week. I'd rather take two history classes, but to do the creative writing concentration I have to have four creative writing classes by senior year. (Which, uh, actually shouldn't be that hard.) I'm definitely taking an honors history class, because I don't have any honors classes yet and if I don't take one this coming semester I'm going to get kicked out of the honors program. *winces* I'll either take the honors class Victorianism or Dante and His World, and then there are a couple other history classes I'm interested in. One is Early Middle Ages and the other one is Temples and Festivals in Ancient Greece. I'm also probably taking a science class called Natural Disasters (I'm going to see if I can do my lab science at CWU this summer), and Japanese 102. And concert band, obviously. Thoughts? Advice? Bedlam, you're crazy?

Not if it doesn't advance the plot and just serves for exposition.

Although we are getting a ton of Narnian history.

EXPOSITIOOOOOOOOOONNNNNN! Thanks to Tirian, the exposition fairy, who feels that his purpose in life is to tell Peter the parts of Narnian history that may not get him killed for the crimes of his ancestors. Tirian? Totally a bookworm.

I CAN SO SEE THAT. Tirian's room @ the Cair (they, like, rebuilt the Cair, right?) = YOUR BOOKSHELVES. *nods*

Totally WORSE than my bookshelves. And he knows it all encyclopediacly too. IN CASE ONE COULDN'T TELL FROM HIM QUOTING NARNIAN LIT IN CH. 1. So far in Ch. 3 he's only quoted Caspian's memoirs.

And by Caspian's memoirs, I also mean "Once More for the Ages."
