So I came up with this random Drabble to keep you guys hanging. Don't worry, truth or dare will be back!
This one is dedicated to all Foaly fans like myself. Sheesh, that centaur deserves more appreciation. Contains a bit of Hartemis, but it's completely in character this time. Let's get to it!
Oh, and it's a chatroom because I'm really short on time. Sorry. But you know you love my chatrooms.
•—
*drumroll*
Foaly: Once upon time, there was a noble, and brave, and very handsome centaur by the name of—
Artemis: And you have the audacity to call me unimaginative?
Foaly: *huffs* So this centaur's name was—
Holly: Hold on a moment. Did you forget that we're in the middle of an adventure here? And that the whole D'Arvitting city is in LOCKDOWN?
Artemis: And that we might just not want your story?
Mulch: And that we have much more important things to worry about? Like how to get food?
Foaly: *rolls eyes* Look here, Mud Boy, you asked for it when you called me boring!
Artemis: I was talking about your evacuation route, Donkey Boy.
Foaly: There's nothing boring about my evacuation route!
Holly: It's a sewer.
Foaly: Exactly!
Holly: Yes, because sewers are the most interesting places in the world.
Mulch: I can vouch for that.
Artemis: My point is totally different. Your so-called evacuation route is sufficient for the people, granted, but did you ever think that they might just have to spend a solid week in it?
Mulch: Without food?
Foaly : There's plenty of food!
Mulch: I don't see any.
Foaly: Well, maybe you should just join everyone else and get yourself some. Too bad if everyone else is already there, done eating it.
Mulch: YOU DIDN'T TELL ME YOU HAD FOOD?
Holly: *exasperated sigh* Girls, this is getting annoying. I'd rather listen to Foaly's tale than watch you two fight over a chicken leg.
Foaly: *beams*
Artemis: That's it, I'm leaving.
Foaly: Oh no you don't. Because the bad guy in the story is a terrible ogre named—
Holly: Artemis!
Foaly: Exactly!
Artemis: *rolls eyes* I can't believe you're married.
Foaly: *is enjoying himself*So this ogre, or in more modern terms— Mud Man— was eating up all the villagers. He had sharp claws, a deafening roar...
Holly: Shh.
Foaly: Hey!
Holly: Quiet, centaur. Did you hear that?
Artemis: Sounded like...oh no. How old are those pipelines?
Foaly: *annoyed whinny* What, is this like your Atlantis Complex? Would you be happy if I said five hundred years?
*silence*
Artemis: *crosses arms*
Holly: *dangerously* How long?
Foaly: Erm...five hundred years?
Holly: *twitches eyebrow*
Mulch: *comes back chewing on something that looks inedible* *freezes* Oh no.
*Mulch and Artemis cover their ears*
Holly: YOU CAN THINK OF A CARROT SOUP MACHINE BUT YOU CAN'T REMEMBER A SET OF D'ARVITTING FIVE HUNDRED YEAR OLD PIPELINES, IN HAVEN'S BIGGEST EVACUATION ROUTE THAT WE MIGHT NEED ANYTIME, WITHOUT ANY NOTICE?!
Foaly: *whimpers*
Holly: AND NOW THIS WHOLE THING COULD COME CRASHING ON OUR HEADS?!
Foaly: Come on, it can't go that far. I mean what are the chances...
*loud hissing noise is heard*
Trouble: *comes running from the path ahead* Foaly, explain those leaks at once!
Artemis: Did he say...
Holly: No. No. No.
Foaly: The lines are...leaking?
Artemis: *horrified whisper* I didn't just hear that.
Mulch: *wide smirk* This is going to be so much fun. Broken pipelines. Ha, think of all the five hundred year old muck that's gonna spill on you guys. Lucky I'm used to it already.
Holly: FOALY!
Foaly: *chews lower lip* Erhm...yeah?
Holly: I SWEAR I AM GOING TO—
Trouble: Duck!
Holly: Where?
Trouble: I MEANT DUCK!
*A gallon of murky water bursts with the pipe*
*...onto Holly's head*
Artemis: How was ducking going to prevent that?
Trouble: Wait...good question...
Foaly: Um...I'm gonna go...*inches away slowly*
Holly: FOALY, I WILL KILL YOU IF IT TAKES ME MY WHOLE LIFE!
Foaly: *shrinks*
Artemis: Holly, calm down. It wasn't entirely his fault that you were standing there.
Holly: Artemis, do you want a black eye?
Artemis: Oh.
Mulch: *rolling with mirth* OHMIGOSH YOUR FACE LOOK AT YOUR FACE! THIS IS TOO GOOD! TOO GOOD TO BE TRUUUEEEE!
Holly: *sigh* *draws back fist*
Foaly: Aaaaaaahhh!
Holly: *punches Mulch*
Foaly: Whew.

Author's Note:
I had so much fun with that. So much fun! GO FOALY!
Now guys, a little question— I'm sure you've all heard rumors. So what do you think of Asa Butterfield (Hugo and Ender's Game) playing Artemis? I love him, he's awesome, but unfortunately we know about nothing about the movie yet. If Colfer isn't co-operating, you're more than welcome to join me in rioting outside his door. FOWL FANS FOREVER! Did you guys hear about the spin-off books he's planning? WHOOO!
