Annoyage of the Dawn Treader

Killer-Kate and Luke Lackland: 480 words, beginning the central Kate/Bonecold Refugee sequence at Garcastle.   The male characters there are spending too much time thumb-twiddling: must use these scenes to fix that.

Last night I dreamed I was Eustace Clarence Scrubb.  My life has now seen its crown.

The Good, the Bad, and the Gaudy

Killer-Kate and Luke Lackland: 640 words.  Kate and Lord Evil begin their verbal duel.  He reckons he's won this passage, but Kate and I know something he doesn't.  Pure slime, this guy, but horribly good at it when he can be bothered.  He's bothered.

The Popinjay: 550 words.  Introducing the middle sister's viewpoint - Bright Young Thing's - and, as I more than slightly suspected beforehand, she immediately ran away with the story.   Beauty is now the only sister whose head we - I - haven't yet been in.  I've no idea how that will work out when it happens.
