So many here tell of their closeness to their siblings, to the great joy that their siblings bring them. I could not agree more with such sentiment, for the richness that my own bring me has always far outweighed any great burden they've put on me (and some have put burden upon me indeed!).

But, in that great sentiment, I must say that I have put off announcing my own brother has indeed left, and so any friend he may have had here, I ask you make yourself known to me. My brother is Edmund Pevensie, and I should like to thank you, and ask you be my friend too.

And, if you did not know him, I would say, then meet me for my own sake. I am long in introducing myself, and I feel quite badly for the delay. I am Lucy Pevensie, and most grateful to make your acquaintance.

And what would that do?

It can be a great motivator. I've known people who've accomplished amazing things out of spite.

It's not like it has to last. But it doesn't hurt to let out frustrations in a controlled manner sometimes. I used to go into the woods and shoot my bow.

Do you have another one?

Bow? Or means of letting off steam?

Bow, I do mean.

I do. It's not a great bow, mind you, but if you've any experience with long bows it will certainly do for practice. Or learning, if you're not a good shot.

I'm quite a good shot, I should say. I would be most grateful if you would be generous with your weapons.

No need to be quite so formal, darling. I wouldn't have mentioned it if I wasn't willing to pass it on.

[ She'll neglect to mention she's more willing thanks to the fact she can't sell it for anything worth while -- but it will do for Lucy's purposes~ ]

I think I am too used to it, but I will try.

See that you do.

I'll see about arranging a delivery of that bow for you. Which city are you spending time in these days?

Olympia!

My family and I are staying in Wyver for now. But I should be able to get it sent up that way, I think.

My thanks.

You're welcome.

If you get bored of that, let me know. I'm sure my brother has a spare throwing dagger around here somewhere. ;)

What is ;)?

!!!

Has no one told you how to make text faces?

Turn your device to the side and look at it. The : make eyes and the bracket is a smile!

;) is a winky face. ;););)

Oh! I so do see it!

It's pretty easy to modify the face to match your mood, too.

[She'll save the animal emoticon revelation for another time.]

I shall have to experiment.

Doesn't hurt to have that extra edge, in case someone surprises you in close quarters.

Did one of your family teach you to shoot? Or did you have proper tutors for that?

My sister. She is a most excellent shot.

I approve.

[ So says the sister who is an excellent shot herself. ]

What about your brother?

He's a terrible shot.

Sucks to be him.

He prefers another weapon, then?

A sword.
