Obscure Character - Tumblr Posts

Holy shoot, I LOVE the other lion!  

This lion, who has no other canonical name beyond “the other lion” is my all-time favorite obscure character EVER and he only appears in two scenes in the entire book series.  Even though I understand that it would have interrupted the flow of the movie, I’m a little disappointed he didn’t make more of an appearance in the movie. 

Look at this precious dork.  Look at this excited bean who is so darn hyped to included with Aslan in the words “Us Lions” he straight up forgets to be even remotely useful.  

Can I just squeal for a minute about one the most utterly delightful and criminally underrated characters in this entire series?

The other lion. Just. THe Other Lion. I love this guy so much.

“…Those who are good with their noses must come in the front with us lions to smell out where the battle is. Look lively and sort yourselves,” [said Aslan].

And with a great deal of bustle and cheering they did. The most pleased of the lot was the other lion who kept running about everywhere pretending to be very busy but really in order to say to everyone he met, ‘Did you hear what he said? Us Lions. That means him and me. Us Lions. That’s what I like about Aslan. No side, no stand-off-ishness. Us Lions. That meant him and me.’ At least he went on saying this till Aslan had loaded him up with three dwarfs, one dryad, two rabbits, and a hedgehog. That steadied him a bit.”

Just. What a mood, honestly. Both in terms of the utter lack of helpfulness and the sheer enthusiasm about Aslan.
