I wouldn't recognize FOB lyrics if they gnawed on my knee.

I've only noticed all of the Florence + the Machine song title/lyrics for fic titles as a standout go-to source (at least as of a year or so ago). I do get occasionally earwormed by a fic title, and it's especially annoying if it causes me to avoid a fic I otherwise wouldn't have because of bad associations with a certain song.

Those have me more likely to click because I've likely incurred a pleasant ear worm and I find it funny. Especially when I'm curious how the fandoms intersected.

Whereas I've never heard a FOB song, much less paid attention to titles or lyrics. Not only is there no resonance for me, I'm fairly likely to be confused. I get it when it's a canon-likely choice, but FOB might as well be Iggy Azalea as Tuvan throat singers to me.

I wonder if I've bookmarked any so I can point to examples, if just because Jilli would laugh and laugh and laugh. (We don't have a lot of MCU overlap in our reading, tragically, so I'm not sure she'd have seen them already.)

And... nope. Haven't.

Have a lot of private bookmarks that had me go, "Oh, god. Right. That one. Yeah."

Consuela, it turns out the one fic that I most strongly suspected was yours, isn't. Gone to Vinegar was on my short list of suspects but it wasn't the one I was willing to lay folding money on. So I was wrong. On the other hand, I now have a new author to enjoy. (I don't read Narnia fic as voraciously as I do some other fandoms. I cherish the canon so, that I am very particular about what fanfic I read.)

ETA: Or maybe not. However well-written that one piece is, the author seems to go for more smut in Narnia than I am prepared for.

I've always had my suspicions about Mr. Tumnis.

Randy old goat, for sure, but as long as he's not scaring the ...

I should just stop now, shouldn't I?

Hah! That happens. I'm generally really bad at guessing those, so I don't usually try.

But if one of the writers you've discovered is Rthstewart, she's really good. I especially recommend The Stone Gryphon, which is about Susan being a spy in Washington DC in the early part of WWII. It's very good.

I also recommend Elizabeth Culmer if you have any interest in the Calormenes, she does marvelous world-building there. And, of course, Bedlamsbard, for epic stories about the Pevensies as very dangerous adults.

I just went to a Susan Pevensie meets Peggy Carter place.

Funny you should say that... [link]
