Taking A Moment, for turkeyish. Written by sophiap.

In the Great Hall, hearths blazed, musicians played Christmas carols, and dozens of Narnians laughed and feasted. Out on the west battlement, a solitary torch flickered, a pennant snapped in the wind, and a dwarf and a Son of Adam blew smoke rings. "Party not to y'r liking?" His Majesty had borrowed a pinch of the sentry's baccy, thereby allowing a degree of familiarity. "Oh, it's wonderful," King Edmund said with quiet, genuine cheer. He waved his roll-up back towards golden windows and distant music. "But sometimes, what one needs to appreciate festive noise is a moment of companionable quiet."

Original Prompt: As long as it centers on Edmund, I'm good. :) Something happy that maybe somehow involves smoking and/or fencing.
