Anyway, if it did happen to be a djinn or something, then it would be on my fav list too.

They meant it as a joke. I think.
And I would fav it too. I'm pretty sure Bart checked the planes about the stool.

Aww..... It would have been nice had Bart been more human for once.
TO ERR IS HUMAN.

No, he did make a mistake, he actually said something along the lines of 'Do you see that guy on the end there? He's a footstool! But somehow I like his style...'

And then Nathaniel says something like, ' That really is a footstool, no-one's using that circle'.

I know the wording is wrong, but I'm in a different state to where my books are.

EDIT: Footstool is Teh Awesomeness

I thought so too.

Actually, refering to the stool, it was Nat who said it, and I shall quote (Web science is easy; I have lots of free time)
"...I like his style..."
"That is a footstool, no one's using that pentacle..."

Wow, I was a lot closer than I thought I was. Yays.

'Grats.

Can you imagine the first chapter of the trilogy:
"All the candles snuffed out and the room went dark...a distant howling rose in the air...flames licked around the pentacle, and a terrifying footstool materialized in its centre..." Now that would be really scary, why didn't he do that I wonder?

<_< Sheesh, I still can't belive Barti's only 37% of the poll...

Well there were a lot of choices...

He might try it out the next time. The plan's cool & so is Bart.

Try to avoid double posting, and
It's supposed to be BAR-tee-MAY-us, but sometimes I just say it Bar-tee-mus.

Yes, Welcome.
And try to edit and not double. Unless necessary.

Welcome and who the hell voted for Rupert Devereaux?! *SIGH* ah well. Barti, I'll always love you. :wub:

The Footstool? Never noticed that character in the books before. Gonna have to reread them again. *sigh*

Well, Deveraeux wasn't so bad, but then again, I wouldn't want to live in the U.K. if he was still the Prime Minister there.

GE during the mass summoning.

It's not so much a character as an object but ah well.

Oh yeah...now I remember. I didn't think that it would have been a character though. Still funny how Bartimaeus mentions it. :lol:

I think I need more practice on paying attention to small details in books. XD

The first pronounciation is the one I use. The 2nd one does'nt sound that grand somehow.
