GARGGH

Fine. I did it. I caved.
I held out for a long while, but I am very disappointed with my self-control, or lack thereof.
However. It was a good, if infuriating, excerpt.
I was kind of confused, because I can't focus well when I read on a screen, but that will be rectified come August, when I finally get the book.
Things I have learned:
  1. I am taller than Artemis by one inch. This I do not like. It seems awkward to me.
  2. He has gone mental. Why is he so superstitious? It's crippling him!
  3. Adam Adamsson is one of the most unfortunate names I've ever heard, but I hate him, so that's fine.
  4. It is true, and B's birthday is Artemis Fowl's birthday (September 1). Too bad she doesn't care. I would care.
  5. I don't like how it's called Artemis Fowl and the Atlantis Complex. The only series I know that can pull off the 'and the' is Harry Potter.
  6. 'That sounds insane, Artemis realized. Even to me.'
  7. I hate Hartemis (Holly/Artemis) shippers. I hate them I hate them I hate them. And this chapter pricked up my Hartemis sensors and made me want to spit poison.
  8. Everyone seems different. That is upsetting.
  9. 'In spite of their historic dislike for each other'? Trouble Kelp and Artemis Fowl? What?
  10. Artemis's attitude is starting to make me hate him. He's doubting himself, blaming Butler, not being smug and snarky. What happened?
  11. 'The number gods'? The bloody NUMBER GODS? ARTEMIS! GET A GRIP!
  12. '"Foaly is singing," said Holly. "Surely that's illegal?"'
  13. Foaly has a foal!
  14. "Worry not, lesser intellect."
I am being driven crazy.

  1. 1. Taller than him?!? Oh my gods. I'm not going to think about that.
    3. I LIKE the name Adam Adamsson. Though yes, I do hate the person. Eejit.
    5. BAH! AFAC is a fine enough title for me.
    6. Ha. I loved that part.
    7. A/H is MY shipping. (Yes. I actually wrote that. I really am a Hartemis shipper. Sigh.)
    9. I am mostly a Hartemis shipper because I really HAAAAAAATE Trolly. HATE it. To DEATH.
    11. I hate the stupid number gods too. Except I refer to them sometimes.
    14. I am still waiting for the day that I can use that quote. It has not yet come. But I do call anyone who hates/doesn't care about/hasn't read the Artemis Fowl series "lesser intellect". It is very fun.
    AND I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU FINALLY READ IT! Now I can discuss it freely.
