Susan Pevensie is 46 years old, the matron of a prestigious boarding school, and has just found her seventh white hair when her hand alights on the applewood box on her vanity table. It is cold, and dusty, but warms and hums beneath even the gentlest touch of her fingers, and lost in a memory as pale as dreaming she opens the box, slips a ring upon her finger, and rises through a wave of sweet water and light. The wood is ancient and new at once, a country all her own. She sighs, settles against quiet bark, and sleeps.
I'm being brave and posting this fic here, becuase I would really love feedback from the Narnia side of the LJ world on this story, even though I'm terrified of the feedback at the same time. (Yes, terrified. All of you are amazing writers, and therefore an increidbly intimidating bunch!) A few things you need to know:
h_dash_h and some of the Glee people here on LJ, (who, as it turns out, are also avid Narnia readers). It helps, more than I can say. I have a huge outline and story arc for this, and writing Susan is more than a little difficult for me, so any suggestions would be greeted with delight.
Prologue
- This is a Narnia/Glee crossover. It's madness.
- The fact that it exists at all is entirely
autumnia's fault.
rthstewart is an accomplice. - My Susan is indebted in many ways to the Susan of
rthstewart, though she is not the same Susan. See also the Susan of
autumnia's Last Battle AU and her Narnia/Buffy crossover. - This is my latest, most complex, and slowest-developing Narnia story. Between the nervousness and my own perfectionism, not to mention a current RL schedule that makes sleep almost impossible, I haven't been able to update it very quickly.
