Quite.
On-Topic, I still think he perfer Ptolemy, but out of respect for Nat he'd take his form every once in awhile.

Really?
Why?
Ptolemy meant soo much to him!
Course, in the end I supposed Nat did too, just not as much.

No! Nat meant more. Nat's the one the trilogy's about. Ptolemy was boring.

You don't know that. He never says "Ptolemy meant more to me" as far as I know at the end of the book.

No, but think about it: Who did more for Batimaeus, Ptolemy or John?

Think about it. Who did he know better? Nat.

Whose feelings did he have more access to? who treated him more like an equal?

Nat. Not Ptolemy, Nat.

He totally knew Ptolemy Better.
You spend four years with someone on and off and see how well you know them.
During the time between GE and PG they didn't exactly talk to eachother much, did they?

Okay. So, for your information, when you go inside someone's head and SEE THEIR THOUGHTS, I'd say that it's called knowing them.

A lot better than if you were to, say, see them on and off for four years.

Ok point taken, but thats not the same as knowing their prsonality and stuff.
That just means Bart knows every birthmark, every scratch, every hairline crack in his bones.
Not quite the same.
