Description
A sketch of a scene I've always liked a lot from Diana Wynne Jones' 'The Pinhoe Egg' novel (Chrestomanci Series). I simply love Cat/Eric Chant. I've always pictured him as a small boy with huge pale eyes and a mass of silky, pale blond hair. In Pinhoe Egg though he his supposed to be a little older, though his exact age is never revealed. I figure he must be around 12 on this, and Marianne close to 14. I love how he seems to have grown into a much more relaxed and laid-back person in this novel. The little boy we discovered in 'Charmed Life' used to be so timid and insecure, I was delighted to see him become confident and bloom once Gwendolen's bad influence was removed from his life. I still fancy him rather timid though. Introverted, I guess.I also fancy he has a small crush on Marianne, though that's probably just me being silly~
"Edgar Pinhoe saw her. "Not now, Marianne," he said. "I'm with prospective buyers. Run along home, there's a good girl." His domination spell was back, aimed at Marianne. Cat wondered what good Edgar Pinhoe thought it would do, when his magic was only about warlock level and this girl's was pretty well as strong as Millie's. And Millie, of course, was an enchantress.
Sure enough, the domination spell bounced off Marianne. Cat was not sure she even noticed it."
