Ah, sorry. "OC" stands for "original characters".

And also... you said "It's slightly AU." I don't know what that means, either. 😛

"AU" stands for "alternate universe". What that means is that the story changes at least one major element of canon. So, for example, fics in which the Pevensies are not related or they don't return to England at the end of PC or Edmund does become Jadis' prince, etc.. So I said that this idea is "AU" because it brings characters from all over the timeline together into the same place, which certainly didn't happen in canon. 🙂

If it was very well written, I can definitely see that story being good (and quite funny). It would be a challenge, though, to control such a large cast of characters!

Heh-heh, yeah, I thought about the massive cast when I was typing all that out for Berry. I clearly didn't think of that when I first came up with the idea. 😆

😀 Yep, that's a lot of characters. 😛 But... think about LotR... all the characters... so well developed... It's possible, but... *faints*

lol, true. But LotR was also over 900 pages long. 😆
