Oh how lovely! I find an AU in which Jill and Eustace stay in Narnia very believable (why are the Pevensies the only ones who get to enjoy Narnia for years?), and even more so that Rilian would be far more drawn to Jill (herself an outsider and newcomer to the Narnian way of life) than any of the silly princesses. This was just beautiful, and hilarious too. You got Trumpkin to a T! And the allusions to Trump's first impressions of Jill Pole, WIN!! I loved the way Rilian shouted his proposal first to Trumpkin, I was laughing so hard! I've gotta agree with the prompter, Rilian was totally seducing Jill in the Underworld. (In my head, that is.) I'm so glad to see this pairing done so thoughtfully and realistically. This would make a lovely longer fic too. I'd be thrilled to read more of the world you introduce here: Rilian's awkwardness dealing with the Narnians after such a long and painful separation, and the roles Eustace and Jill have taken in his kingdom, and perhaps some extra UST between Rilian and Jill to set up the yummy proposal. You did an amazing job here and left me craving more more MORE! :D
