Yearly Reminder that C.S Lewis encouraged his fans to write fanfiction about Susan Pevensie becoming a friend to Narnia and reuniting with her family once again.
Literally inviting his fans to write Susan’s adult, angsty character development with a happy ending.
one time on maplestory I was browsing the free market and entered someone's shop, and there was someone else browsing there too. and because I was playing in the dark at like 1 AM while lying on my bed with horrible posture, one of my feet started cramping and for some reason my first instinct was to type into the chat "MY FOOT IS CRAMPING" and the other player instantly replied "OMG PULL YOUR BIG TOE BACK." so i tried it and i felt instant relief. this was like 10+ years ago and I still remember her every time my foot cramps. i hope she's doing ok!

hi, hello ! my name is lauryn and i use she/her/hers as pronouns. i'm twenty-three and i'm currently in the cst timezone ! below i have an expanded tldr for min-ji, and a massive biography linked at the way bottom if you'd like to know more ! i know introductions can be overwhelming, so i tried to condense info as much as i could ! to try and make matters a little easier, i've also linked a connections page below that has some ideas. thanks in advance and i'm so excited to be writing with everyone !
⸻ ┊ 0 0 1 › min-ji was born in fort pierce, florida. her parents were basically mariners and weren't prepared for a kid, financially or otherwise. to keep the family afloat, her parents worked a lot and min-ji was often left in the care of others. this left min-ji with little surveillance and a lot of independence from a young age.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 2 › grew up around lots of water and learned not to make a ruckus. quietly acted out by stealing, which she got really good at doing. sadly, min-ji had to really be the one to look out for herself in her childhood. she became very sneaky as a result, and loved to see what she could get away with.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 3 › her desire to figure things out and trick the public culminated in reading mystery novels and lock picking. she snuck off to the port a lot and was more conspicuous but had less surveillance as she got older. min-ji also made a friend! his name was mateo
⸻ ┊ 0 0 4 › cue heartfelt tale of childhood friends with similar circumstances and interests. then, min-ji and mateo started doing delinquent stuff and spent a lot of time at the port. eventually, they met william jr, an older teen who did boat tours. BAM get rich quick scheme: find blackbeard's treasure
⸻ ┊ 0 0 5 › william sr got in on this and what started out as a dumb idea actually got super serious (tons of context and logistics in the biography + a heck of an adventure story) eventually, the group took off to north carolina after min-ji graduated.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 6 › they eventually found blackbeard's treasure on portsmouth island following a wild adventure where each member had a specific role. min-ji's role was mostly gathering funds in the early stages by illegal means, and later getting the group through difficult places without getting spotted.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 7 › north carolina laws say you can't keep treasure, so they stashed some away for themselves and fenced/laundered it through a shady lawyer that also represented them in their legal case to have a legal claim on the treasure that they left behind. the other three members of the group were pretty hellbent on having some notoriety from their finding and doing the right thing which is why they didn't take it all for themselves... min-ji, not so much
⸻ ┊ 0 0 8 › after this, the group went their separate ways and min-ji felt abandoned. she began committing robberies out of bitterness and playing that old childhood game of how much can she get away with, and it turns out... a lot. but she was lonely and sad. the group lost their legal battle and edward teach's treasure was left in possession of the state of north carolina.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 9 › at that point, the group reunited for a drink and min-ji admitted to her recent criminal activities. she was chastised for it and the wills + mateo admitted that they parted ways because they had trouble dealing with the guilt and fear that came from their stolen treasure and subsequent criminal activities. min-ji seemed to seek out these situations and she was angry at them, and angry at the system that failed her.
⸻ ┊ 0 1 0 › the day after the case was settled, she was recruited for the libertalia (age 21). she accepted within a day after being given assurances of the legitimacy of the group. min-ji joined because she wanted to belong and feel valued and use her talents. she missed being a part of something. and she was good at what she did!
⸻ ┊ 0 1 1 › in the nine years since then, min-ji has really grown up. she enjoys being a part of the group and thrives in her position. a mentor took her under their wing and really honed her skills. her strengths lie in gear-oriented things like climbing, as well as traversing security-heavy, cramped, or difficult to navigate paths undetected. she is happier nowadays, naturally charismatic and playful. min-ji can be soft spoken before you get to know her. has a reputation for scaring people by sneaking up on them and messing with people when she's bored. she is a sneaky (kinda manipulative) gal and a wonderful ally, but a horrible enemy to have.
PERSONALITY . . .
⸻ ┊ 0 0 1 › min-ji is a menace. they’re destructive and often don’t have the best moral compass, so they tend to do things for themselves or those that they’re loyal to. she can also come off as a little angsty at times. she has a narrow world view in the way that people that don’t matter to her, they don’t matter at all. her childhood was rocky and involved absent parents, and all she really wants is to fit in. the libertalia has been a dream in that regard, and min-ji is fully devoted to the group as a whole, and its members. if you ever need to hide a body, she’s your gal.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 2 › when she does find people that she cares about, min-ji is compassionate and doting. she will often act playful and easygoing around familiar faces. while min-ji may have bad intentions as a whole, her intentions when it comes to her friends are pure and wholesome. her kindness is highly selective. though a lot of her socializing is often about what she can get out of it, she tries to make sure others have their needs met as well. in a way, people are just entertainment to her, but they are necessary in order to keep her content and relatively well behaved.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 3 › min-ji’s demeanor can change depending on who she is interacting with. if she isn’t familiar with them, she is more likely to be standoffish. min-ji can also come off as a little weird, as she isn’t afraid to speak her mind or act how she would like to. sometimes this involves pranking or scaring people for her own amusement. she possesses a confidence and self-awareness that has led to a strong knowledge of her own identity. as a result, tearing her down or trying to manipulate her isn’t likely to work. min-ji, herself, can be incredibly manipulative, and enjoys messing with people and making them squirm.

BACKGROUND . . .
[ ! ] TRIGGER WARNING : infertility, emotional child abuse, mention of intentional self-poisoning and running away, theft, divorce mention of addiction
⸻ ┊ 0 0 1 › islan is from hiawassee, georgia. she was a miracle baby as her parents had struggled to conceive for years. her birth was celebrated by locals and friends with affluent gifts and praise. she was dubbed a wonder child: a miraculous conception who hit each infant milestone early, was always in good spirits, and was even born with teeth. people swore that islan's presence brought them luck, a superstition that her parents would cling to.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 2 › her parents were professors, and insisted on homeschooling islan as education in hiawassee was average. she was offered proper socialization, and thrived in her early years of academics. superstitious witnesses claimed that islan used all of her good luck on her early years, as she hit a standstill around the age of seven. her previously quick progression was stunted, and her status as an anomaly was dwindling. with this, her parents' interest dwindled, as well. it appeared her parents had been more interested in what islan could provide for them than what they could provide for her. her "fortune-giving" abilities seemed to stand still with her progress. islan would later recall three distinct stages to her adolescence: the golden days, the grey days, and the red days. these were the grey days.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 3 › her red days offered chaos and misfortune. contrary to her past, islan was locally regarded as a bad luck charm in her teenage years following unfortunate events that happened in her presence. she also began acting out in an appeal for her parents' attention. islan magnetized people and adversity in equal amounts. her parents' indifference evolved to resentment, and islan was given harsh curfews in an attempt to stave off the bad luck. her seclusion bred rebellion, and islan began dating a neighbor in secret. the relationship lasted six months before islan was caught, and was no longer allowed to leave the house without parental company.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 4 › this led to islan's chain of attempts to sneak out, each thwarted as her misery increased. more info on specifics of these things in big bio but things got bad, then she went through a period of acceptance. and then she was done accepting her circumstances. a carefully devised plan involving intentional self-poisoning and safe cracking offered her freedom, a successful means of running away. she fled to ocala, florida.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 5 › ocala provided independence, liberation, freedom. it was the birthplace of islan's criminal proclivities. perhaps emboldened by her years of stealth in her hometown, she started small. she began pickpocketing locals, stealing from shops. islan also obtained her ged, a waitressing job, and a drivers license here. she weaponized her magnetizing nature, finding a thrill in convincing others to assume risk for her when it came to thievery. islan was angry at the world for her mistreatment. after attention placed on her grew too conspicuous, islan returned to her hometown in search of closure. she also began to experience a crisis of identity between a teenager who experienced childlike wonder and a young adult capable of finding joy in thievery and manipulation.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 6 › her return did offer some degree of closure, and she left six months later to bed-stuy with her forbidden first love, arlo. the novelty of their romance wore off quickly for islan, and he grew concerned and tired of her growing criminal presence and activities. she realized she romanticized things too heavily, which is a common theme no matter the part of her life, and he left shortly after they had moved in together. blah blah blah many details but islan really became thief woman in this time and led her own expert heist/thief crew that pulled increasingly risky and lucrative jobs at her direction. her notoriety in the underground grew and she got her offer to join the libertalia at the age of twenty-one
⸻ ┊ 0 0 7 › the beginning was more focused on honing existing skills and creating new ones. islan was a natural in many fields and highly adaptable and willing. she was a master of her craft in no time and really threw herself into the libertalia. when she was twenty-six, she started to crave a little bit more of a normal life, so she stopped primarily staying on bases and letting her role consume her life. she got a bungalow in london, made friends, did her own lil criminal things, manipulated more people, indulged in her wealth, and wanted to find a partner. she did when she was 30.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 8 › within a year, islan had eloped in canada with her new wife, jade. happy love times + nice marriage and great addition to her life. it was also around this time that islan advanced to take a place in the captain's crew. jade and islan wanted to start a family through surrogacy, with islan designated to carry the child as jade had no interest in pregnancy. but numerous fertility experts conveyed to islan that she wouldn't be able to carry a child to term, and islan also began to realize she was romanticizing the life of being a mother. it wasn't actually something she wanted. so, when jade mentioned adoption, it caused a rift and islan was adamant in not having children. jade grew to be resentful, while islan wanted to work through things. a little bit before their fourth wedding anniversary, jade took off with part of islan's personal fortune and was never heard from again. this left islan fragmented.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 9 › the divorce took two and a half years, as jade vanished. islan really took a turn for the worse: working out excessively and partaking in underground fighting, coercing people for sport to a higher degree, developing a penchant for wanton violence, and struggling heavily with addiction. she was a walking tempest with a magnetic nature that brought others into the eye of the storm. her personal struggles did not impact her work, which she threw herself into, at first; she threw herself into her career in the libertalia. she had been regarded as a sort of good luck charm on jobs, and that did not change until she was forty. she usually showed restraint, but islan had overindulged before a job and it was an incredibly costly mistake. and also a wakeup call
⸻ ┊ 0 1 0 › cue a short hiatus from the group, some vacations, and some self-discovery. islan checked herself a lil and came back to the libertalia with a new sort of calm. she was still batshit under the surface, which was kinda apparent, but she was more likely to show restraint before acting emotionally. islan came off a bit more indifferent, and her chaotic and destructive habits stuck around but slowed.
⸻ ┊ 0 1 1 › ok fast forward to now islan is 45. lives in a beautiful home in london and is sort of in her adult grey days where there is some semblance of stability that she can appreciate. it's very hard to get close to islan, and she is more inclined to connect with those she is already familiar enough with. they may occasionally see a softer side of her, one capable of affection and childlike wonder. islan is deceitful, charming, reckless; a masterful, thoughtful thief keen to impose her disdain of the world onto their mission. it is not wealth she lusts after, but the thrill. the libertalia is an outlet for her need to engage in wickedness, but it's also a family and a home. she is ready to sink with the ship, if need be. after all, what goes up is destined to go down. such a fall is fated, and grows closer each day.
PERSONALITY . . .
⸻ ┊ 0 0 1 › islan is highly manipulative, and preys on those who may be more susceptible to coercion. she carries a confidence befitting of someone who has been the object of desire for the majority of her life; her ego borders on being out of control at times. this is due to her magnetizing nature that naturally draws people to her side, with those who are unsuspecting aiming to please her by any means necessary. for better or for worse, islan is incredibly charming and charismatic. she is shameless and unafraid to speak her mind, with the courage and ferocity to back up any potential conflicts that may occur as a result. there is a level of instability evident in islan, a volcano waiting to erupt. in a way, she has an on and off switch. islan can go from being cordial and playful to violent and destructive in a fraction of a second. her moods are unpredictable, and she emits a certain capability and danger that is enough to instill a hint of fear in others. much like any other charming individual, islan can appear in an entirely different manner when she chooses to. often, if she is trying to elicit a particular response from a stranger, she takes on the role of an almost shy seductress. there is no soul that has come across islan that has not been on the receiving end of a coquettish remark... or ten.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 2 › where most people appear a bit more unstable as you get to know them, islan is the opposite. she radiates demented energy, and all who meet her seem aware of her chaotic, flimsy nature. it almost creates an air of mystery around her; perhaps that’s why getting to know islan demystifies much of the mayhem. it could be a defensive mechanism that drives islan to hostility with new acquaintances, but she can be soft once someone gets to know her. islan can even be affectionate towards those that she has developed a connection with. when she lets her guard down, one might witness a childlike spirit, the same girl that stood in awe of lilacs. vulnerability is saved for those that she is closest to, a select few that have experienced enough of her gentle side for her to be comfortable with displaying honesty and amenability.
⸻ ┊ 0 0 3 › at the forefront of islan is adaptability, just shy of resiliency. islan is capable of acclimatizing to harsh circumstances, but truly bouncing back from them is where she lacks. in a professional setting, islan shows remarkable talent in picking up any skill or task that you throw at her; she truly is a natural. if you were to catch islan in her natural habitat, typically a club or any underground setting, you would meet an impetuous, frisky daredevil that is likely to procure an unbelievable story before the night’s end. islan is a truly restless spirit who will seek thrill at any cost. her intelligence is not to be underestimated, as islan is guileful and self-willed. often, she is praised for her quick thinking in unpredictable situations and her ability to recognize unlikely patterns and options. there was a point in islan’s life in which she had virtually given up; overcoming this, she seized life and then some. that drive is what fuels her, the need to chase the high.
