"Seems plausible. Maybe I'll ask him next year."

[deepest_magic]

"Yeah. I wonder where he goes when it isn't Christmas."

[neverbeatme]

"You can ask him next year, maybe!"

[deepest_magic]

"I will have a great big list of questions for Father Christmas next year, you can bet." Pause. "I wonder if the time stopping magic on the wardrobe is good enough to let us stay here for a good long time without worrying our grownups."

[neverbeatme]

"I wonder that too. I mean - if Chris gets worried she'll come to pick us up, and she'll probably find where we climbed into the wardrobe, it's pretty obvious with the chair wedging it open and all. And then I guess if it works for her it'll work for her, and if it doesn't... I dunno."

"We should ask Aslan about that tomorrow," Bella yawns.

[neverbeatme]

"Mmhm. G'night."

Bella snuggles into the pillows, and goes to sleep.

James does likewise.
