This whole ridiculous prank or trap (both look possible so far it looks like the latter) has caused a rift. They can't celebrate his return because Peter is not entirely there. Something has been lost in the transference. Not a feature but at least a basic means of familiarity. The hands that hold and strangle are not Peter's. Susan has not yet experienced first hand the cold touch of his fingertips. If she had, she'd certainly be less calm.

Why does he want her to be so down on him? Maybe the answer is that he thinks that he deserves it. Either way, even though she won't pinch or punch Caspian. Susan gives him a shove and a little more stern look. "I can tell you just as much talking to you. And you had better listen. We depend on one another. The last time that we all fought among ourselves we could have killed one another! That can't happen again. Why bother hitting or hurting?"

This magic farce has revived the fear of the White Witch's influence in Susan. There is no telltale imprint of her in this plot. If there was could they tell? A little bird was stuck on her table for quite sometime. None of them knew it. And not too long ago she, Peter and Caspian were under the dark magic thrall of that blasted wand. Wicked magic sought to tear them apart.

"What good are we to each other if we don't show that we care when it is needed." That's what Peter needs. That's what Caspian needs. That's what Susan needs.

"I only meant that..."

Nevermind. Don't dig a deeper hole for yourself, Caspian X. He recovers from the shove without issue but does recoil just a bit from her stern expression. It isn't cowering necessarily, but he is cowed, and rightly so. Enough with the wallowing, that's what he gets from this. Angry or not, feeling sorry for themselves won't help the situation at all. Unlike other members of this household, Susan Pevensie has her priorities straight.

"I'm listening," he says quickly, then casts his gaze downward again, teeth nipping on his bottom lip, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper, and I am not being fair, I know." He swallows, yes they could have killed one another that time, and he thinks they could kill each other now. But Peter didn't mean for it to get that far, right? He would not have left so quickly if he did... High King Peter the Magnificent would simply do it if he truly wanted to.

After a thought, Caspian reaches out to her hand, if she'll let him take it into both his own.

"I want to fix this, I know I cannot do it by myself and I should not expect him to want to cooperate so soon," I just want a reason to not care, I want a reason to justify wanting to go home to Narnia. But he would never leave them here, not by choice, not in this state.

She supposed that he got what he wanted. It didn't make Susan feel any better. Brash actions must have a kind of method to be mastered. She let's him take her hand. This is her reassurance that this is her best form of action now.

"This isn't fair to anybody except for that-that pest. He's the only one that is enjoying himself." That's dismay in her voice with a bit of accusation to their flighty friend Lan. "Ask Peter to forgive you and get your apology then. I've already forgiven you."

Peter Pevensie is a stubborn man in a stubborn boy's body. It looks as though the person their dealing with is disagreeable too. With this much against returning Peter to his proper body, this will have to be a group effort. "This will be sorted together."

Why me first?

The voice in his head asks as only a petulant prince turned king would, or as any stupid stubborn boy would. In his mind it's clear that Peter ought to apologize first for his behavior which led to Caspian's poor temper exploding on the lawn and so on and so forth. It could take days to root out this problem and even so all of it could just as easily trace back to one fateful day in a forest where two blades crossed paths. A tricky situation, this. Susan speaks the most logically and that is what his stubbornness can't handle. Nevertheless, the Telmarine nods.

"I understand, Susan, I do," he squeezes her hand as the thought but he has to be willing to listen too runs through his mind. Boys will be boys, really.

"Yes, it will. Together, because anything else would be a foolish mistake," that is how a family works isn't it? That is what he ought to be learning from the Pevensies. A moment passes and Caspian lifts his chin to appear confident, to appear sorted even though he isn't. He will try to be.

She accepts his nod with a brief easy smile. Her serious face comes back not too soon after, with less of a need to be extra firm. A little ray of hope in a cloudy time can go a long way. Caspian will get his soon.

"Good." Squeeze back to you too good Telmarine. Don't let anyone down here. "We've done big things together. This should be easy." That's optimism rather than honesty belief.
