Susan's an old soul and an adult mind in a young body. All the physical benefits of youth, the bouncing back quickly, needing less sleep, not nearly so much wear and tear, and none of the mental drawbacks. Lucky wench -- my busted knee and wonky spine make me very jealous of her!
Regarding Jill and Lewis' take on her, the only mention I recall of any physical description is a sort of side-note in TLB, where it's mentioned that she, along with Scrubb and Tirian, rub oil on themselves in order to darken their skin and 'look Calormene.' But I think we can gently ignore this misstep Lewis took, and enjoy your characterization for the many awesome ideas she has to offer.
(And I know you loathe visuals, but now I'm sort of imagining Freema Agyeman as Grownup Jill in the Everybody Lives! AU. It's the pragmatic-doctor thing she did to such great effect on Who.)
Thank you for the review, and the interview (which went like this: blah blah blah imagery whoogle garble cosmology blerg blah mythological HEY LOUD AIRPLANES stutter where was I just then?) -- and also for the pimping of my fic. It wouldn't be even half of what it is without you!
