→ why I decided to play this character: Blame [Unknown site tag]. She was one of the first muns I ever met IRL, and we got to talking about how much fun we'd had with Peter Pevensie meeting Nita Callahan, and I must have foolishly let something slip about how much fun I would have playing a Narnia character, and she must have cunningly said something about wanting a Eustace, and, well . . . I knew I was doomed when she pinged me and said "Hey, I found a PB possibility for Eustace -- Shia LaBeouf." ". . . I have been thinking the exact same thing."

One of the things that attracted me to Eustace, and that remained my favorite part of him, was that he was so ordinary. The Pevensies are Narnian royalty, and Polly and Diggory are practically the father and mother of the land, but Eustace and Jill are just . . . kids. And Eustace is a brat, to boot. I really love the ordinary people in extraordinary situations.

→ my favorite scene or bit of interaction concerning this character to date: This question is so hard. D: I thought about saying Aslan and Eustace, or Band Candy!Lucy and Eustace, or all the stuff around Blodwen-bewitched!Caspian . . . but I've gotta go with dragon!Eustace. Those threads were the most fun I had with him, hands down.

→ my favorite original aspect about this character (world-building for ocs or head-canon for fcs): The little details of what his parents disapproved of, like smoking. Those bits of backstory were fun.

→ the last thing they did "off screen": Being as he's in Aslan's country nowadays with the rest of his family and friends, probably went exploring. Ever further up and further in!

→ what their last words would be if they died tomorrow: . . . *amused* Eustace is almost the only one of my characters who has already died and doesn't have anyplace better to go. His last words before the railway accident were "I can't see them yet--" He didn't get even that much before being thrown through the stable door -- he just got out a yell.

→ what the next thing I'm doing for them is (narrative, post, shelving, whatever): I miss Eustace, but his story is done, and happily done. No plans for him.
