no otp in bartimaeus just me losing my innards thinking about how much love bartimaeus feels for ptolemy after 2000+ years and how to the end he wanted to believe the little 12yo nathaniel who summoned him to steal something from a man who abused him was still somewhere in the man that nathaniel became—slaver, segregationist, corrupt, refusing his own flickers of morality and remorse

#im shaking a little i just read these books in 3 days......#it's been very long since i read kid fantasy. this was good...#im gonna be thinking about bartimaeus the demon who spent 2000 yrs taking on the appearance of the boy he loved #for the rest of my life. i think.#nathaniel was so well-written too it's devastating as well to have so much insight #into how a good kid can become such a dreadful person #esp from the pov of the one and only entity who still had a flicker of faith in him #and had said faith betrayed countless times #ah... i'm crying again
