Thanks, Grace! I think you have mentioned it before, but you can never have too many positive messages! I tossed up putting C. S. Lewis as the creator, but I chose Aslan because he made an appearance in the films, haha. And thanks for your constant support, I think I’ll be making edits for a while yet! xx

siriusolantern said: I still love the quote in votdt where eustace asks ed who is aslan and does ed know him and Ed says well he knows me :( idk I just really love that cos Ed knows that aslan doesn’t see him as a traitor and he must feel amazed that aslan thinks that

I agree 101% with the houses!!! people forget, I think, that the pevensies aren't just in the disney movies. LOVE THE EDIT!

Thank you! This is so validating, you have no idea.

I know the most popular convention is to do Peter in Gryffindor, Susan in Ravenclaw, Edmund in Slytherin and Lucy in Hufflepuff, but I feel that this is such an oversimplification of the sorting and of their characters. Peter goes to battle a lot, therefore he must be Gryffindor; Susan is all about logic, therefore she must be Ravenclaw; Edmund is a traitor, therefore he must be Slytherin; Lucy is the kindest and sweetest of them, so she must be Hufflepuff. It completely overlooks other aspects of their characterisation and really looks at sorting purely at a surface level. If anyone hasn’t read the posts over at sortinghatchats, I really recommend it, it gave me a much better understanding of the Hogwarts houses and the distinction they made between Primary and Secondary was so interesting.

Obviously, the one I mainly take issue with is Edmund’s, because people get so caught up on the fact that he had betrayed them that he gets lumped in with the ‘bad’ house and they completely ignore the rest of his character development, which is primarily based around him making up for his error in judgement and proving that, yes, traitors can mend. I would argue that most people who love Edmund (and there are plenty of us!) really enjoy his redemption and character development, so to put him into Slytherin for the mere convenience of having one Pevensie in each house is really doing his character a disservice.
