Ok so this is a WILD long shot and I’m about to expose myself in far too many embarrassing ways, but you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take sooo

Is there anyone on this hellsite who was part of the Narnia fandom between 2008-2010, particularly when the Prince Caspian movie came out and Suspian (Susan/Caspian, please stow your rage purists) was at its popularity peak, when the Surpassing Time/caspianandsusan forum was still around?

I’m hunting for a particular fic that was posted to the forum website way back then, written by moi (at the time I believe my username was Hopeless_Romantic), called The Gentle Hornblower. It was one of the more popular fics on the forum at the time, and unfortunately I wrote that thing directly on the site and never saved it. I’ve checked way back machine and no screenshots exist of the actual fic itself (*cries in 13 year old dumbass who didn’t save her shit*), so I’m hoping beyond hope that someone has a relic of that time and saved the fic?

Bless u, I’m gonna go hide in old lady shame now

some of you need some help re: lenore dove

let's rebut some common anti lenore dove talking points using quotes from the book. this is called supporting evidence and I would have gotten a 0 if I had submitted any of these hilariously wrong misreadings of lenore dove's character to my literature class.

moving on!

'Lenore Dove makes Haymitch feel stupid because she treated him like a stupid little child when he disagreed with her'

wrong! 'Sometimes, she's hard to keep up with. Lenore Dove is always patient when she explains stuff, not superior, but maybe she's just too smart for me.'

lenore dove's special interest is philosophy and she enjoys debating it with haymitch and finds it intellectually stimulating, she's not treating the boy she kisses and adores like a little child

'When he wanted to enjoy his birthday instead of having a conversation about the state of the world'

on reaping day??? on quarter quell day??? when either them or their friends could get reaped??? it's like you've never had something else important happen on your birthday anymore.

but anyway lenore dove does not do this, she talks about the reaping a bit and basically is like 'a world without the reaping is possible' because she is sixteen and y'know, scared that one of them will be reaped: 'Her face falls. 'No, I'm sorry. It really is your birthday, and here I am going on about who knows what.' She backtracks and apologises! and gives him a wicked birthday gift!

also 'lenore dove is too rebellious and does it without cause'. Lenore Dove does four explicitly rebellious acts: two when she is twelve, one when she tries to help Woodbine Chance's mother, and one when she sings a rebellious song in public *because her boyfriend is going to his death the next day, so fuck it*.

anyway try reading next time and comprehending the words! it helps

lenore dove is haymitch's girlfriend, yes, but she is also a narrative foil to the idea of implicit submission, a key theme throughout SOTR, and is the district character through who collins challenges it, whilst simultaneously showing how one lone voice is never enough.

Modern Haymitch x Lenore Dove.

She met Haymitch on a rainy day, at the library.

It wasn’t magical or anything. A book slipped from her hands, he bent down, picked it up, and handed it to her with a smile.

—“Hope it’s not a Greek tragedy,” he said.

—“Huh?”

—“You know… those have way too many falls.”

Lenore Dove stared at him for a few seconds.

The joke was so dumb, she couldn’t help but laugh — more out of surprise than actual amusement.
