featuring his iconic quad sals and the ever-so-elegant junhwan-bauer ❤️

bonus tcc reunion with jason:

Had the passing thought the other day of like… that one scene in TEC where Fowl Senior has just woken up and Artemis immediately begins rattling off stuff about the family finances and like… I know how people usually interpret that scene but hear me out:

Artemis immediately doing so because he’s a kid and he’s been essentially all alone trying to keep all their finances secure (to save his father in the first place) and he’s worked so hard on it, and like… when a kid needs someone to fix something, who do they usually turn to first? A parent.

So Artemis starts rattling it off like “great we can both work on this now, cause now my dad’s here” and then five minutes later he’s thinking “shit!! my father’s doesn’t want to fix it!!”

Some Holly sketches ✨

When can I see you again? I've been waiting out here for so long and I Don't seem to find the resolve To keep building these castles out of snow

They only melt away When spring is arriving and guilt will be here Waiting to drag me down into your pond

You bury me slowly, you bury me slowly "Take what you can" (Tim) "Give what you don't need" (Angeline) Still I'll let it be known in every parish You are loved, you are loved...

When, Susanne Sundfør

(the bold parts are not the exact lyrics, but what I personally hear)

If Artemis has even only one (1) song that sounds even remotely like that in the musical, to express how he feels about his parents, I'll be a happy woman There is just such a beautifully dark and melancholic undertone throughout this entire book series to me, and I'm so terrified that a musical will not be able to do it justice...

🦎 Half-goblin Holly backstory headcanons 🦎 (including some more general goblins headcanons because actual canon is *not it*) (very long post ahead, but I felt it was due time to expand the lore of my beloved half-goblin Holly) - Her dad's name is Lezzare. Holly was very close to him as a youngling ; he used to affectionately call her "B'wa-biba" (darling sparkle) - He made all her childhood clothes himself, as per the goblin tradition of mending : goblins love to patchwork their clothes with visible stitches, and fabrics passed down in the family from generation to generation - to allude to how their skin shed naturally and symbolise the love and protection of the family allowing them to grow. This tradition is mostly seen as an excuse for poor craftsfaeship compared to the more sophisticated, gold-thread embedded clothing of the elves and centaurs, but many goblins are actually very skilled at sewing. - He and Coral met at the university, at a marine biology class - Coral attended as a student and Lezzare as an auditor (goblins basically aren't allowed to pursue higher education in Haven because they are deemed too stupid) - Lezzare was an activist fighting for goblins' rights, and advocating for a demilitarised Haven (arguing that the People should only defend themselves against mud people as a united front, and not further the divides between the fairy families according to the "nobler" elven values and morals). - Even though he was a pacifist, he was sent to Howler's Peak after a mass arrestation following a deadly terrorist attack, when Holly was still quite young. Coral joined LEPMarine and moved to Atlantis with baby Holly so they could go visit Lezzare more easily. - Holly still loved her dad, but the stigma of being a goblin hybrid and her dad being in prison slowly started to take a toll on her ; especially since Coral was gone working most of the time, and Holly spent a lot of days with various LEP officers both being very dismissive of her and her father, and encouraging her to join the LEP like her mom. - When Coral died, Lezzare was allowed to attend the funeral, which absolutely didn't sit well with Coral's family who hated him and disapproved heavily of their daughter's relationship with a goblin. At the funeral, Lezzare started performing a goblin fire grieving ritual which was interpreted as an aggression attempt, causing an absolute riot between him and Coral's family and LEP coworkers, with Holly torn in the middle. - Holly was extremely mad for a very long time at her father for ruining her mother's funeral. Lezzare was also really upset that she chose to join the LEPrecon after everything they did to their kind. - I believe they were strictly no contact since, and for at least the first three books. But after meeting Artemis, and the B'wa Kell rebellion, Holly starts to see things a bit more differently, and a bit less black and white. Julius' death, then the events of The Opal Deception leaving her out of the LEP and more isolated than ever, as "the goblin LEP experiment that ended up being a murdering failure like every other goblin ever is", really changed her entire perspective. - Now she sees her dad more often ; mending their relationship takes time but they find things to bond over, and it gets better 🧡 ... That's it for now ! Please tell me what you think about all this ! Also, I've started working on a feature film two weeks ago that's why this piece took forever to finish ; even though I'm really done with it, and I think I could have done better with the color palette (too same toney imo), I'm pretty happy with how vibrant it globally turned out. And I'm also quite happy with Lezzare's face 💚
