It's honestly a shame this didn't happen. I wonder if it would finally cause Xanay to crack.
*whack*
Bad!
I really don´t want David to actually crack - lose his cool and get startled aboutjust what kind of people-shaped mess Doof is, but not *crack*
He is far too important an ally and too pleasant a person for me to want him to genuinely suffer.
No death penalty in Doofania? I don't think Germany has one but Doofenschmirtz is from Drusselstein which was part of the H.R.E. and they definitely executed people via beheadings, stoning, and they crushed heretics I think.
Funfact, some states in Germany still have laws regarding the death penalty, but since Federal law is superior to State law, that stuff gets overruled and so, there is no death penalty in all of Germany - unlike the USA, where every state seems to be doing whatever they want.
...Although German states still have a lot of autonomy, which unfortunately is one reason why our current anti-pandemic response is absolute *shite* (The other two reasons are a government that thinks that "sitting things out and silently grab some money on the sidelines" is an appropriate course of action on one hand and a extrem-right movement that outright sabotages any responses as "attack on democracy")
Wait, will there be Artemis Fowl? And if so, book or *shudder* movie?
Ix-nay on at-thay
What a minute, Dream Boy 25 seems to be a play on Dream Boy High, the franchise where Xyler and Craz from Gravity Falls came from. We clearly didn't let them have that phone, we don't know where it came from, it's referencing something from Gravity Falls, and the voice on the other end was described as young...
It's Bill Cipher.
There are 41 episodes of Gravity Falls according to the wiki.
And what did LOVEMUFFIN just roll?
Alright, now that I'm done with the initial panic over the possibility of it being Bill...
It probably isn't, there are too many possibilities for us to assume it was him. Let's not fall back into the trap of assuming everything that might be bad for us is connected to him.
*sighs*
Isn´t *everything* in this quest in the end about Bill one way or another?
But seriously, no, I don´t think it´s Bill (at least not *directly*) this time, because the interlude lacks his usual shenanigans, like yellow/invisible text or eldritchness.
...Really?
The woman who got so fed up with her Doof-like boss that she overthrew him at the first possible moment and shunted him to become her dogsbody, who gets very annoyed at Doof whenever they talk for how similar he and that very former boss are despite us having gotten more and more competent over time...
That woman is now supposed to even bother with a *whole cabal* of Drakkens/Doofs?
I think not.
The sad thing is Artemis is capable of becoming a genuinely good person, but it's difficult considering his situation, and the whole matter of the guilt he'll feel over his actions will literally have him begin to go crazy and develop a complex that should be impossible for humans to develop.
So he is surprisingly similar to David and to a small extent even Doof himself...huh
