Ill Always Trust Fitz Over Keefe. Why? Fitz Reacts Out Of Anger. It's His Defense Mechanism. He Doesn't

ill always trust fitz over keefe. why? fitz reacts out of anger. it's his defense mechanism. he doesn't mean what he says and he admits he messed up and that he wasn't thinking. keefe, on the other hand, means every goddamn thing he does, and well... you can see why i'm wary

while some of these have been addressed, e.g. elves having a very short fertile period or something of the sort and hence not reproducing as often as humans, causing their population to be controlled, the rest of these issues definitely need clarification.

Some thoughts I have about the elves

+ Soo, the elves don’t have birthdays, instead they count their age from their “inception date” which is basically when the elf sperm met the elf egg right? And from that moment, they’re considered to be an elf. Are the elves pro-life? What happens when an elf doesn’t want a baby? Adoption rarely happens so does that mean an elf has to keep a child and raise it no matter if they wanted the kid or not? Seems a bit sus and kind of concerning 

+ Do elves get period cramps? They don’t experience pain from labor so how about periods? Humans seem to have very similar parts for making babies as elves (seeing as sophie’s mom was capable of carrying sophie’s embryo and forming her into a perfectly normal elf) 

+ Why are elves and humans so similar? Elves basically seem to be super-powered humans, so how did humans and elves become different? 

+ If elves behave and have similar needs to humans, what was the big deal about human medicine being used on Sophie? In general, it doesn’t seem to hurt humans, so what makes elves different? 

+ How was the humans betraying the elves such a big problem if the elves are so “vastly superior” How come the elves decided to leave most of the world to humans if they should be able to easily defeat them? Do humans have some sort of supressed abilities that pose a threat to the other sentient species? 

+ WHY HAVEN’T ELVES HELPED WITH CLIMATE CHANGE? This is a huge issue that would affect them too, so why aren’t they paying attention? This seems like something they should address. 

+ Why doesn’t the elven world seem to struggle with overpopulation? Humans struggle with this, and we are not essentially immortal. Elves rarely die, so why are they able to all live in huge mansions? Do elves get sent to space or something? 

+ What hides the Lost Cities from the humans? What measures do they have in place to prevent humans from seeing and entering their cities?

+ Why do elves not make music? What kind of culture do they have? So they read books, see plays, make art? 

+ What are elven customs? How do they celebrate weddings, and inception days, and other things like that? 

+ If matchmaking is in part to produce kids, how are same-sex couples treated?  Do they exist? (if they don’t exist, that REALLY sends a warning sign, considering elves are the “superior race”) 

+ Do gender-fluid, agender elves, and other elves on the gender specturm exist? 

+ Are there trans elves? How are they viewed/treated?

+ Do elves have mental illnesses like depression?

+ Are there disabled elves? 

Feel free to add more questions, this was all I could think of at the moment, but I’m sure there’s more.

Listen, I love Artemis Fowl with all my heart but...

I will never stop being angry at how eoin colfer straight up,, used and discarded a character like Minerva. she had so?? much?? potential?? like sure he screwed her character a little by making her all starstruck by artemis but that’s what made her unique. She wasn’t just a female counterpart to artemis- she was the more humane, more attuned-to-emotions version. She was a pillar of support to Butler when Artemis went MIA. Butler, who’s like 2m tall and trained to remain level-headed in all situation. Butler, who took care of Artemis since he was a baby. Butler, who felt like a failure to his entire family because he failed to keep his charge safe. She managed to give him hope that Artemis would return. He basically confirms that he wouldn’t have survived without her support. And what did she get in return? She got written off and never mentioned again, with some flimsy excuse of her having running off with some skier in the Swiss Alps. idk who that satisfied but it isn't me.

tl;dr: Minerva Paradizo deserved so much more than being cast aside once her role as a convenient female that catches Artemis’s attention when he’s going through puberty was fulfilled.

eoin colfer and rick riordan have a support group of other writers who have also either been wronged by book to movie adaptations/know they’ll be disappointed

Jason and Fitz being some of my favourite characters says a lot about who I am as a person
