Good evening, Fair Daughter od Eve or Son of Adam! It just so happens you stumbled upon my evening portrait sketch of Prince Caspian. Do enjoy it. I wish you a very pleasant evening.

Twas sketched with an HB precision pencil on white paper. I also offer my apologies, graphite is ridiculously difficult to photograph as it often reflects light.

I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was grief.

thinking abt edmund pevensie.. who gets cranky when tired, who has a fondness for food especially sweets, who ate dirt he thought was chocolate.. thinking abt 10 yr old edmund pevensie who wanted to build roads in narnia.. thinking abt 11 year old edmund pevensie who fiercely defends his older sister, abt early twenties edmund pevensie who at all costs will protect his older sister.. thinking abt edmund pevensie who is a rock climber, who had once beat susan in archery, who had swiftly beheaded someone in battle.. thinking abt edmund pevensie who enjoys reading detective novels, who is interested in trains & railways.. thinking abt edmund pevensie who is his older brothers right hand man, who is his younger sisters most loyal ally,

"Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say "My tooth is aching" than to say "My heart is broken."

– C.S. Lewis

Matthew Goode being studious and roaming libraries

(Incidently both are supposed to be the Bodleian in Oxford).

Many similarities and also vastly different characters and vibes (testament to Matthew's incredible acting that he so disappears into his character).

Certainly Professor Lewis is far more serious than Professor Clairmont and not trying to cause mischief with a certain witch 😆

📷 My edits from Freud's Last Session (2023) official trailer and film* (West End Films/Sony Pictures Classics)

* In the trailer, we have a front view of Lewis walking through the library but a backview in the film. Whose idea was that 😭

Also, deleted scene (from script): "51 EXT. OXFORD. Lewis walks through Oxford to the doors of Bodleian Library."

Missed opportunity to have yet another shot of Matthew in front of the Bodley

📷 A Discovery of Witches s1 (2018) on set stills (Sky/Bad Wolf)

When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty, I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.

So you know Helen, Cabby's wife from The Magician's nephew? I was rereading the book and it struck me how weird it must have been for her, like one random Tuesday you're doing laundry by hand in your tiny, draughty, smelly London living space and the next you find yourself in a sunny meadow with a very large Lion announcing you and your husband will presently be crowned royalty of this here fairytale kingdom. Oh and your husband's hansom horse can not only talk now, he's given frickin wings and can fly.

I mean it's not like Polly and Digory hadn't had a wild day(s) - the Narnian timeline again- and whatever they've been through is way more in comparison to just being yoinked to a really nice woodland kingdom and be the ruler there now. It seems as if I take Polly and Digory a bit for granted in the scale of things, but still, as a kid you're probably gonna take magical adventures like that a bit easier than someone like Frank and Helen who had was harsh and tough lives that let little room for fancies. To them this scenario must have been beyond anything they've ever imagined.

And honestly good for them, I'd hardly imagine a better first King and Queen of Narnia than someone who had daily struggles and chose to remain a good, kind and decent person in the face of those struggles.
