The Sartain Literary Review

Welcome back to "The Sartain Literary Review" The boys are currently reviewing the third part of "Hummingbird's Child" by Jenny. Boys. Boys! We're on. Take it away, Davy.

Davy: *looks up, startled* Huh? Oh wait, I'm almost done!

Art Wench: *sigh* Let me guess. You haven't read it yet.

Davy: I didn't have time! =(

Mark: *smirking* He had time to write a love letter to the Fluffy One during the break, though.

Art Wench: Davy... if your little cross-universe romance is going to interfere with your life over here, then...

Davy: *engrossed in the story* Oh! that's why it's called "Hummingbird's Child"...

Art Wench: Grr... okay, well then you start Mark, and hopefully our little Romeo will rejoin us when he's finished reading.

Mark: I didn't care for it. The premise is questionable, at best. What manner of madman risks life and limb to save a mere pixie?

Art Wench: But he loves her, Mark.

Mark: *raised brow* How does that work, I ask you - they can't even f -

Art Wench: *cutting him off* You can't say that word on the air!

Davy: *finally finishing story* Aw.... *glares at his brother* Not everyone on the planet equates love with sex, Mark.

Mark: Then they're idiots. Or mad. I know for a fact that you're mad. Getting all attached to a succubus like that. Love's a disease, I tell you. Someone should come up with a drug to cure it. They come up with drugs for all the other mental ills, why not this one? There are entirely too many people running around behaving like Chaos-fucked fools as it is.

Art Wench: Markkastanen! Your language, please! Are you finished ranting now?

Mark: I've only just begun. But please, let the sap comment, since he's an expert on this sort of thing.

Davy: Just for the record, has anyone seen the way he looks at Aerael when he thinks nobody's looking?

Mark: *glare* What are you saying?

Davy: *smug* Please, please, hold all your questions 'til the end. It's my turn to talk now. First off, I like their names. Tyme and Tyde. That's really cute.

Mark: *makes rude gagging noise*

Davy: *shoots brother annoyed look* ...anyway, what was I gonna say? Oh yeah, it kinda read like an episode kinda thing, something that introduced the characters, ran them through their paces, and then next week, there's another adventure. I kinda like that.

Mark: It would be better if the mymyc ate the pixie by accident. I would love to see that.

Art Wench: *sigh* Right. Okay, well, on that note, let's move on. Next up: "Redbridge" by Willow. We'll be right back.
