[She stands in the hallway, fingers running her fingers across the nameplate on the door. Dressed in shorts and a dark green tank top, she looks more at home in the wilds of Indonesia than the castle. But the mused hair, slippers, and purple silk robe indicate that she, perhaps, recently awoke.]

This is not good.

[Her nose wrinkles at the plaque and, on second thought, she chooses to ignore it. It is more important to find out who is responsible for removing her from her tent sometime during the night.]

Booth and Hodgins have both claimed that practical jokes are supposed to be entertaining. If this is a joke, I do not find it very funny.

[She glances down to the journal she had found by the bedside table in the room, partially opened by a thumb acting as a bookmark. Brennan shakes her head and then continues down the hall.]

Of course he's sentient. There's nothing almost about it.

And I don't see why he could not. Why, if anything, there is no one else who could possibly be suited to rule in his stead. After the White Witch, even the black dwarves and the minotaurs and the like wouldn't dare argue that.

You are not making any sense.

[a heavy sigh] It's a wonder these other worlds function at all, not knowing about Aslan. It's a pity, to be sure.

[truthin-bones.livejournal.com]

I have to disagree. The capability of a world to function is regardless of any one individual.

[respecto-wiggle.livejournal.com]

With any other individual, I'd agree, of course. Don't suppose there'd be much of a difference, should the likes of you or I disappear. But Aslan...that's another matter, entirely.

[truthin-bones.livejournal.com]

No it is not.

[there's a huff, with a small seed of actual irritation actually brewing...something that doesn't happen often with Puddle]

There's no point in arguing such things. It hardly changes the truth of the matter.

[But something Brennan is very good at causing.]

The truth being that there is no such thing as a sentient lion.
