I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW

[jade_sabre]

that I just bought Artemis Fowl: The Atlantis Complex but SEEING AS I AM DOWN TO ONE (1) ARCHDEMON IN DRAGON AGE and REALLY OUGHT TO BEAT IT BEFORE I SWITCH FANDOMS ON MYSELF I have NOT YET BEGUN TO READ IT, even though the book flap includes some line about EMBARRASSING LOVE CONFESSIONS TO A FIESTY LEPRECON CAPTAIN and I MIGHT HAVE DONE A LITTLE DANCE IN THE LINE AT BOOKS-A-MILLION (and Goose, to her credit, stamped her feet when I let her read it).

LO, ADMIRE MY SELF-RESTRAINT.













(in other news: jakia, I finally finished the Alistair smooch fic I was working on for you! Now it just needs, uh. Polishing and posting. Um. Yeah. Yay I finished something!)

OMG I JUST SAW THE NEW ARTEMIS FOWL AT THE BOOKSTORE THE OTHER DAY BUT COULDN'T BUY IT BECAUSE I WAS QUASI-BROKE. TELL ME HOW IT GOES. I need more embarrassing Holly/Artemis in my life.

I WILL

OH GOD I WILL

ALSO IF THERE ISN'T A MUTUAL KISS OF MUTUAL ATTRACTION IN THIS BOOK I JUST MIGHT SCREAM

No no no, don't ruin it for those of us who haven't picked it up yet! I'll have to wait till it comes out on trade-paperback.

Though to be honest, after the last one I was kinda expecting the whole "feelings for Artemis" thing from Holly.

I will post my reaction under an LJ cut, as I have done the last couple times I've read the newest AF book.

They just need to stop being thick about it.

They just need to stop being thick about it.

FOR REALZ. And I'm going to be really unhappy if Minerva (remember her? the annoying one?) comes back into the picture...

At the same time, I tend to love couples that are really thick about it, so...

OH I KNOW it is my greatest fear. But I got the impression from the book that Colfer knew she wasn't really the kind of presence the series needed, so hopefully we'll get like two lines about her and that will be that.

ALSO TRUE, but like, with these two, I'm so afraid of them stubbornly screwing it up and ending up somewhere they don't need to be because of said thickness, so I'd rather have at least some acknowledgment on BOTH parts that it won't go away...after that we can have fun!thickness, not please-don't-push-him-away-Holly!thickness.
