Hi, reader. Remember that children book series you adored? Here’s how old the characters would be now.
Percy Jackson - turning 31 this August (The Lightening Thief was published in 2005. Percy was twelve.)
Amy and Dan Cahill - 30 and 27 (The 39 Clues wiki page puts Amy as born in 1994 and Dan in 1997.)
Sabrina and Daphne Grimm - 30 and 26 (The Fairytale Dectectives was published in 2005. Sabrina was 11. Daphne was 7. Some disagreement on the fandom wiki for their birth years compared to publication date.)
Artemis Fowl - 38 (The first book was published in 2001. Artemis was 12.)
And the real kicker?
Junie B. Jones would be 37. (The first book was published in 1992. She was 5 in the series.)
I hope you all feel as old as I do.
I'm wishing for either life or death because I am tired of being stuck somewhere in between.
Simply existing.
I hate pranksters.
Like what if you accidentally come back from the future or become a mage or go to an alternate universe and tell ME about it and I DON'T believe you because you pull shit like that normally.
THE DRAMA I WOULD MISS.
And what if it is a prank and I believe you??
I'll never trust you again, you scoundrel toying with my emotions.
Die :)
I'm the most traumatised person my age I know
As It Was by Harry Styles and Nothing's New by Rio Romeo are both opposites of each other and somehow still feel like personal attacks against me.
As they repeat the same line over and over again I feel this sinking feeling of misery and nostalgia at once.
The best songs can rip you apart or put you back together.
There is pain in acceptance. It's a stage of grief for a reason, I suppose...
WHY does no one remember that the name of Piper's ZIT is BOB.
Small Bob
Titan Bob
ZIT BOB
No thank you.
