I really liked this line: Had this variety always been in England and he had never noticed it before? The Pevensies tend to focus on the negatives of being adults in children's bodies, understandably. But there are definite positives. I mean, it occurred to me today while reading that I'd actually like the chance to relive my college days Now With 85% Less Stupidity.

My favorite parts of your stories are interactions between the Pevensies, too, and this chapter was ALL that, almost, so yay. From the hilarious and believable bickering, to the touching moments with Mrs. Pevensie (new, obviously, to this story but still counts as an inter-Pevensie conversation). I also liked Peter's reflecting back on how much he is and isn't revealing. One of the things I thought was a slight plot hole... or, not really hole but thin place, reading almost all of TSG in one sitting, was that they aren't more careful about appearing so adult. But I suppose they can't help it. Anyway, considering that secrecy and spying is a theme, I thought it appropriate that Peter would think about that.

My apologies for nearly disappearing after my last conversation with you... my semester of teaching started and then a number of things happened in my personal offline life, one after the other!

Can't wait for the next chapter and more Susan conversations. She's becoming one of my favorites.
