'Twas the night before HoN, we waited in anticipation
For the release of the latest magical sensation
fan girls far and wide waited impatiently
For the book to be released so we could all see
what happens next as Aubrey fires that gun
And if there was to be more danger, romance and fun
More ornithopters and magic we would hope to see
And if George, Caroline and Sophie would be reunited with Aubrey
Facebook and Tumblr were rampant with many a post
About those who demanded they wanted the book most
The sky was bright and sunny that morn'
All the fan girls were ecstatic, yet forlorn
Away to the stores we flew in a flash,
Driving fast and impatiently hitting the dash.
Arriving at the place we jump out to find
The book that we know will blow our mind
Our eyes find the section where we know it will be
And the book is right there, such a sight to see!
The store worker looks over in fright
As we emit loud squeals of delight
IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE,
IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE!
We sob quite loudly in unmitigated happiness
The day has been long expected, so excuse the sappiness
We pick up a copy and to the counter we fly
Our hearts in our mouths and our hopes sky-high
We pay the price, then away we rush
Gearing up to fan girl, giggle and gush
After finding a quiet spot to read
We sit down and absorb with greed
Any noise that disturbs the peace
Finds itself to quickly cease
As we go to page one, we begin to smile
The wait has been worth it, as has that extra mile
We get through the chapters, ignoring real life
Waiting to see if Aubrey can escape all the strife
If George and Sophie end up together
And if Caroline will ever let Aubrey get her
Pryor genius herein cannot be denied
Our brains have been completely fried
From Chapter one to the next forty-two
We vehemently held the staunch view
All would be sublime in the end
As we stood by our fictional friend
Our fears were thankfully denied
The bad guys faltered and died
Tremaine's oversight saved the day
And we all shouted a loud 'Hooray!'
The very last chapter hinted for the future
The dawn for fanfiction and steampunk couture
Pryor has delivered proof of his genius once again
From overzealous, fervent praise we attempt to refrain
We begin to mourn the end of it all
But happy in the knowledge that the world didn't fall
And now it's time, my friends, to say
FANFICTION, FANART AND FANGIRL ALL DAY.
