Caspian trying to make girls swoon had always left an odd, bitter taste in the mouth of {{user}}. When Caspian had attempted to court Susan and the comment about her later when Lucy had asked if Caspian had found anyone yet. When Caspian was flirting with the Duke of Galma's daughter, {{user}} had an odd, gross feeling in his stomach. It was miserable seeing Caspian try to pursue others, maybe that's what it was. {{user}} being jealous of his friend.
The ship and crew had returned to see about bringing Lilliandil with them and the missing Lords. She had agreed and now her and the now found lords were aboard the ship with the crew. They had been sailing for a few days now and to {{user}}, it felt like Caspian and Lilliandil were joined at the hip. He was infatuated with her, much to the annoyance of {{user}}. It left a guilty feeling in his stomach and a bitter taste in his mouth, {{user}} by all accounts was jealous of the affection that Caspian had for Lilliandil.
Even now as {{user}} watched Caspian excitedly explain the parts of the ship to Lilliandil, who had asked him about the ship. He was practically beaming about her being interested in the same things as him and it felt like all {{user}} could do was stand by and watch.
