Long Ago and Far Away

Title: A Smoke Raised with the Fume of Sighs
Characters: Caspian X, Edmund Pevensie
Relationship: Edmund/Caspian
Setting: Dawn Treader
Notes: Filmverse; in this story, as in the film, Deathwater and Dragon Island are one and the same. The title comes from Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare.
Rating: M
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: Characters you recognise belong to C. S. Lewis.
Summary: Edmund tries not to let what he knows is coming ruin what he has now.

( It was hard enough to leave him the first time, when the two of you were beginning to get to grips with what lies between you. You think leaving him this time might kill you; but you know better than to speak such thoughts aloud. )

Title: Not Enough
Rating: T
Setting: Voyage of the Dawn Treader
Character(s): Caspian X, Edmund Pevensie, Ramandu's Daughter (mentioned).
Pairing(s): Caspian X/Edmund Pevensie, Caspian X/Ramandu's Daughter (implied)
Notes: Bookverse, with filmverse casting (and the filmverse's name for Ramandu's daughter).  This returns to themes explored in That’s The Deal, about Edmund’s imminent departure from Caspian’s life and how he recognises and deals (or fails to deal) with the part Ramandu’s daughter will play in Caspian’s future.  The title and the lyrics quoted at the beginning of this piece are both from the song Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol.
Disclaimer: Characters you recognise belong to C. S. Lewis.
Summary: For Ed, this is seeing the future; he doesn’t like what it’s showing him.

( You both know you have no future; the Lion could descend upon you and separate you for ever at any point. )

Title: A Riddle, Wrapped In A Mystery (2/2)
Character(s)/POV: Caspian X, Edmund Pevensie
Pairing: Caspian X/Edmund Pevensie
Rating: M

Notes: I've raised the rating on this chapter because I think the general topic, Ed's reaction to his mistreatment by Pug & Co., warrants it.  Please note the new tags.  I'm in the middle of writing a missing scene-cum-sequel that has Caspian and Ed addressing the latter's reaction to his emotional trauma more directly, which will probably take the same rating.  I work on the premise that a rating that's too high is preferable to one that's too low.  Part One can be found here.
