#Also dear artemis and holly shippers: no

SIGHHHHHHHHHH…

I don’t like Hartemis, but my favourite AU is one where mind-wiped Artemis who doesn’t know about fairies thinks Holly’s in love with him because he’s an utter dork who has no experience with friendship, and because he is a professional romance novelist if we remember, so does recognise many of the common tropes being present (which also apply to friendships), so he asks her during ‘The Opal Deception’ and her quick “no no no no no nay never” answer has him think ‘aha’ and then say “Sorry my dear madam, but I’m afraid I’m off the market, dating being a hampering to my work.” and Holly unable to clarify otherwise that she was never interested in him because she can’t get a word in, this being the same memory-less Artemis who tried to sell her out to Opal. Like making fun of the ship but not in a “I hate all shippers.” way.

… I mean. Okay.

Look I’m sorry I sure you meant well sending this but I really don’t care for any sort of Hartemis or Hartemis-adjacent thing. That includes AUs or settings where Hartemis being a ‘possibility’ is the butt of the joke. There was a whole debacle about it. I had Hartemis stans in my inbox for days.
