On Sunday, Ib and Miss Dog Lover and I were playing with various small toys to recreate parts of Prince Caspian (more of the movie than the book).  There were a few interesting quotes…

Aslan (being voiced by Miss Dog Lover):  “Susan, why are you holding onto — OW!  my tail?!?”

Aslan again, perhaps still trying for a response on the same question, “Susan, why — Susan — Susan — SUSAN!  Are you DEAD??”

They just didn’t sound too in keeping with Aslan’s overall character…

Then yesterday, we were at a picnic, and a four year old named Hannah joined us.  She had many ideas on what ought to be played.  One of these was Tarzan and Jane.  She was Jane, and Ib (the only boy there) was Tarzan.

Now, it’s been quite a while since I’ve seen the movie, but I don’t remember Jane chasing Tarzan so vigorously.  Jane kept being “captured” by Miss Dance and Miss Dog Lover — they were the bad guys — and Tarzan was supposed to rescue her.

Tarzan was rather dragging at rescuing her by the end of the night.  One time as she ran through the car port squealing, “AAAAH!  Tarzan!  Rescue me!” he turned away. 

“Just a minute,” he said, grabbing the pitcher of pink lemonade.  “I need a drink.”
