Narnia drabble: Grim Hope [Peter/Caspian, general]
Title: Grim Hope
Author: celandineb
Fandom: Narnia
Pairing: Peter/Caspian
Rating: general
Summary: Laughter has a way of making things look better.
Note: For mauled_down, who wanted Peter/Caspian, laughter, passages, hopeful.
Despite the desperate situation of the Narnians, when he hears Peter the High King's laughter in the underground passages honeycombing Aslan's How, Caspian feels a grim hope. It is a laughter that is neither mocking nor foolish, rather a product of exuberance, of Peter's joy at his return, his being able to serve the realm once more. Caspian is almost glad that he must relinquish the role of Miraz's challenger to Peter, so he may watch this legendary hero fight. He hopes that, afterward, there will be time for Peter to teach him matters of which Caspian is yet ignorant.
