Oh my, I love this. It's so bittersweet and quietly heartbreaking, and oh, everything I love in a fic.
She'd been born a queen, Peter knows now. It's just happenstance that Narnia gave her a crown.
I love this Peter who grows to appreciate and admire his sister, I love the woman and the Queen Susan grows into.
It bothers Peter more than he'd like to admit. Those are my siblings, he thinks protectively, constantly monitoring the three of them from the crown room's dais. And then, I need them.
I love how Peter worries about his siblings, all of them, and realizes how much they mean to him
"Don't do this," she pleads. "They don't need you. You can be Peter. You be magnificent when you're here as well. You don't need to go back for that."
I love how Susan is the only one suited to living in the real world, and how Peter can't stop missing Narnia and the life they had there.
I love how Susan is always right, and Peter knows that. And oh, I love their reunion.
She cries. "I did well, Peter. I hope you didn't worry."
He kisses her and answers honestly: "I didn't. I trusted that you would."
I think I'm just going away to flail a little more over how much I love this fic. ♥
