Want to write paper, but not in mood. Neck hurts a lot (re: rear-ending in friends car yesterday I have not written about yet). Thus I leave me you meme and will try to work on my Jhumpa Lahiri paper anyway.

Comment with your character's name (past or present) and the name of one of mine, and I will tell you:

1) how my character's opinion of the named character has changed over time, or
2) why my character does or does not get along/like/other with the named pup.

Mine, for reference, are:

Maid Marian (queenofmay)
Allie Keys (grandsuccess)
Star (bright_daughter)
Lyta Alexander (vorlon_weapon)

How about Marian's opinion of Edmund? Though I know they only met the once.

For all we talk, lady, we've threaded sadly few times. We really ought to fix that! I am tempted to ask about River-Marian anyway, but I don't know if one (unfinished and I am up, oops) thread is enough to base an opinion on. So disregard that if she doesn't have one yet. :D

I think one of the most important things to point out now is that there is a growing recent difference between what Marian thought about the Narnian's before they left to heaven and what thinks about them now (because of Aslan thread/tracking down Lucy's books).

While Caspian could tell Marian about Narnia, it was Edmund who gave her a thing she could see (seeing being a very big thing for Marian, because her court is all about "talk" and "act" in many ways) and remember physically. It was her first physical glimpse into another realm through the hands of someone who truly loved and believed and was there.

Her encounter with him was ungaurded and unexpected because of the sea, which seemed to be an easier amusement for the conversation to both of them, and lead to further ungaurded and interesting conversation. I think given time they might have been amazing friends and that Marian still thinks on occasion about that meeting with great fondness, because they spoke honestly about love and shadows and heaven and longing.

No matter what she'll probably always associate artist with him when she does think of him, too.
