Is this what you meant by feeling strange? Do you make a habit of announcing your intention to leave moments before departure? To say that I am disappointed would be an understatement. Nevertheless, I am taking good care of your family. Lucy is distraught but she manages. I wonder how much time has passed for you, if your five months here was only five half-seconds there. Did you return at the same point at which you left Narnia? When your siblings follow will it be as if time here had never passed at all so that you are already together again in England? I have no delusions that they will not leave this place either. One day I know I must too. I will tell others about you, but rest easy, I will not tell them your name.

You were in "school uniform" in your portrait. I wish you luck with your admissions. Whatever it is your world holds for you, I know you will do great things. I hope you see your father and mother.

I played a good hand the last night I saw you. If I learn that you let me win due to knowledge of your own departure, I will make you regret it.

Shadow is missing. If you should see a black short-haired cat with one eye please keep him and leave a note for us. We will be out today and may come to fetch him.

You have an one-eyed cat?

[With the stuffed lion.]

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

From Captain Barbossa's ship, but I believe the captain is no longer with us as well.

Zach left these for you.

[Cookies? Yes? Happy?]

I don't think I've met Zach.

[But she looks up at the cookies.]

He's your friend, right?

A good friend of mine, and Claire's.

[Nodding. And they make good cookies.]

That was very nice of them to send them.

[She takes a cookie and nibbles on it]

Tianzi is coming by later.

What will you be doing? Playing games?

[Aw pet pet to the stuffed lion too.]

[adamantined]

You should hang up fliers or something.

She's going to share some candy with me.

[She pets the lion]

I hope that Shadow isn't with Peter.

[Look at that face crumple a little, before she takes a deep breath and doesn't let it]

[tofuinthesky.livejournal.com]

That's wrong. How could he just abandon a cat like that? Especially one that's handicapped.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

I believe the captain would have run the cat off the ship had I not brought him home many weeks ago. But he hasn't been seen since Thursday morning.

Do they let you keep pets at school?

[Evasive tactics are a go.]

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Fliers?

[tofuinthesky.livejournal.com]

Ugh. I dislike people who mistreat animals.

But I'll look around for him. I'll take the alleyways and the dumpsters.

[She shakes her head]

No. We didn't have a pet in Finchley, either.

[adamantined]

Yeah, signs you can hang up that have a picture of Shadow and say like 'LOST CAT. WILL PAY REWARD FOR RETURN.'

Or something.

Thank you, Karolina. Do not worry, he is quite resilient for having only one eye.

I don't think Shadow would like it then. Perhaps he has found a playmate somewhere.

I-I'll try to help and look for Shadow, Sir Caspian!

[irislover.livejournal.com]

Once my urge to dance ends.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

That sounds more like a poster for criminals and taxes, Claire.

[tofuinthesky.livejournal.com]

Resilient or not, that doesn't give anybody the excuse to abuse him. Plus, even with two eyes, it's still dangerous out there for a cat. Have you seen what kind of things pass for people in this place?

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Romeo. How have you been? We have not spoken in some time.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

I have met dwarfs, centaurs, minotaurs, fauns, and Talking Beasts. I do not think I am one to judge.
