Hello again! And so begins a test update. This is a test format. It's not as good, I'll admit that straight off the bat, but it may work... Maybe... If not, I shall move to a slightly less critical fandom. (Don't worry; I certainly won't leave my fics on this one!) I hear the Fangirl one is rather nice...

If this doesn't work out, I would like to thank everyone who supported this fic, for, well, being supportive. Y'all are awesome.

And by the way, this is a rewriting of the first chapter in the new format.


Ho-Chi-Minh City (This is no longer scene one, for the reason that it is no longer in script format, which I actually did deliberately to make it more like an actual musical. So yeah.)

Artemis walked through the streets of Ho-Chi-Minh city, singing his own theme song, Call Me Artemis Fowl by Josh fix. Butler, who was beside him, frowned. "Artemis?"

"Yes?"

"What does your song have to do with Ho-Chi-Minh city?"

Artemis shrugged. "Nothing. I just felt it would be a rather nice opening. Neither IceDynamiteDragonflyStars or her sister, PixiePeahenPOW, could think of an adequate melody that included books, sprites, Ho-Chi-Minh or even Vietnam."

Butler sighed. "Fantastic. Just amazing. One... Erm... Mentioned, assumed, just-take-my-word-for-it song-ish thing in and the fourth wall and our characters have been broken. Let's just cut to Holly."

Not-Scene Two: Holly And Root, aka the disaster of this chapter. (I am really starting to sound like Marvin now. If you got that reference you have my infinite respect.)

Root gave Holly the death glare of doom. Underlined, italiced, doom. "WHAT TIME DO YOU CALL THIS?!" He yelled as his heart exploded.

Holly mentally sighed. "I'm 45 seconds late."

Root's eyes misted over poetically. "I was supposed to sing a Disney song here, but the lyrics were changed around to the point where it wouldn't fit if the original were played, but the author would still (but probably not, seeing as whoever owns Disney probably has better stuff to be doing than reading obscure fanfic) get sued if she wrote down this version."

It was terribly upsetting.

Some random dude buzzed in the radio. "OMG A TROLL!eleven!"

"I'll stop it!" Said Holly all heroically. She started singing Fixer Upper from Frozen, which as it has nothing to do with the current dialogue, fell free to listen to. Or imagine, as most people know Frozen by this point.

Root stared at her blankly.

Holly shrugged. "What? It was the only mentioned, assumed, just-take-my-word-for-it song-ish thing I could think of with trolls in it!

"JUST GO FIX IT!" Yelled Root.

His heart imploded.

Not-Scene Three: Holly Meets Artemis.

Holly and Artemis sang What is This Feeling? from Wicked. Great song, that.


And this must sadly (or happily) be cut short now. Feedback is beautiful. Unless you're a critic. Sorry.
