Hi, reader. Remember that children book series you adored? Here’s how old the characters would be now.

Percy Jackson - turning 31 this August (The Lightening Thief was published in 2005. Percy was twelve.)

Amy and Dan Cahill - 30 and 27 (The 39 Clues wiki page puts Amy as born in 1994 and Dan in 1997.)

Sabrina and Daphne Grimm - 30 and 26 (The Fairytale Dectectives was published in 2005. Sabrina was 11. Daphne was 7. Some disagreement on the fandom wiki for their birth years compared to publication date.)

Artemis Fowl - 38 (The first book was published in 2001. Artemis was 12.)

And the real kicker?

Junie B. Jones would be 37. (The first book was published in 1992. She was 5 in the series.)

I hope you all feel as old as I do.

If you read Artemis Fowl growing up do you ever think about Juliet tying a jade ring into the end of her braid so she can spin around and whack people in the face with it? Because I still think about that literally every single time I braid my hair

I can’t believe Artemis gets mauled by a gorilla in Time Paradox and it’s the least of his problems.

Just some things I think deserve a super accurate movie/show adaption in a beautiful 2D animation style:

The How to Train Your Dragon series

Gregor the Overlander

Artemis Fowl

The Adventure Zone

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (fr so much was left out of the 1939 film!)

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass

The actual Little Mermaid story (there are a ton of adaptations I haven't seen yet so maybe it exists somewhere but we all know Disney’s didn’t even come close)

For the AF character designs I'd love to see Mulch!

I love your art and your character designs are always on point <3

Of course- here you go, a quick Mulch for you!

This was a lot of fun! Thought it might be fun to give him gnawing teeth like a rodent, since they dig a lot. He’s about to dive head-first into a tunnel.

[almostangrything]

Quick question. What fandom(s) do my mutuals follow me for?

Tagging mutuals (yes all of you)

Stop whitewashing Holly Short

I feel like I have to have this talk somewhere outside my head.

I, a 14 year old teenager of color, have always loved Holly Short.

She was described as powerful, with features like a hooked nose, and a dark skin, that made her beautiful. Things that I have always been insecure about, teased for, insulted for, were what made her beautiful.

The powerful woman, who fought sexism and always did the right thing, IMMEDIATELY became my comfort character.

I started to feel better about myself. Draw portraits with my favourite features in my self exaggerated in them. I loved my own features, because she had them.

And then, after reading the whole series and loving it, came the thirst for content. Content in wich, Holly Short, was always whitwashed.

So many fanart, official comics, covers, the goddamn movie! In all of them, Holly wasn't how i imagined her to be. The fact punches me every time. Her skin, her features, are FLAWS that people just prefer to erase from her character.

I still remember how sad i got when i first was raving to a friend about Holly and she said 2 my face how she thought she would be prettier if she were white.

Whitewashing Holly is basically saying the same thing.

Many may go, "whatever, who gives a shit about her color".

But things like this are what make teenagers, kids, like me back at the time, insecure and hating themselves because of simply simply being born the way they are born.

GUYS I FINISHED ARTEMIS FOWL TwT

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO READ NOWWW- I LOVE ARTY TOO MUCH

[genderlesssnake]

help Artemis fowl is consuming my mind

[orangerosebush]

It's striking that Artemis arguably hurts Holly most cruelly when he considers her a dear friend, rather than at the beginning of the series when he is her captor -- consistently, Artemis is cruelest to those he considers his loved ones, as what is most important is the safety (physical, mental, etc) of these people in his life.

“Shhh, shh. It’s okay. Listen, I can fix this. All it’s gonna take is a stolen object, a moving violation, a misdemeanor, two poison darts, and three civil lawsuits settled more or less out of court.”

“When you become a mother-“

Excuse me. I’m already a mother of 400 little goblin sunshine babies from multiple books.

Yes they’re adopted, but 90% of them don’t know that, so keep quiet. And we’ll also ignore half of them being in their 30’s with mortgages and I’m younger than them. They need someone who will raise them right this time.
