Artemis when Apollo asks what's her relationship w Zoë

actually no, we're not "dating". we're bound together for infinity. like the stars. so, fuck you, actually.

[something-something-here]

It was so extra, nothing but love there

Like, we have never seen anything like that for the rest of the books. She will not let ANYONE forget.

I have actually seen people saying that Artemis didn't care?? Just because she took Thalia in as lieutenant moments after?? Zoë literally gave Thalia her blessing in her final moments, wdym??? No way you can say that she didn't care, it's not even subtext, it's text, just read????? Independently if you think of them as romantic or not

And don't even get me started on the ArtemisxPercy ship, I'M LOSING IT— it's not even because of Zartemis

I can't believe there were more people shipping that than any wlw ship of Artemis

[ssavinggrace]

hint of what's comin' soon

[something-something-here]

Do you guys think that Artemis/Diana ever sees Reyna and thinks of Zoë?

Ever sees Thalia and Reyna just doing daily chores and thinks of her life with Zoë?

Does her heart ache knowing how little time they'll get to spend together? Watching them unknowingly makes those beautiful memories

Knowing eternity wouldn't be enough for them, as it wasn't for her and Zoë

Does she find bittersweet comfort in knowing that at least they'll reach Elysium, that they'll be together while she is, once again left alone looking at the stars.

They are beautiful tonight.

ZARTEMIS/NIGHTEMIS HEADCANNONS PLEASE DUDE- DEADASS LOVE UR BLOG IM GONNA EAT YOUR FLOORBOARDS

Omg hi I love your blog too, iminyourwalls—

I've been dying to share my thoughts with someone:

• I think I already put this in a hashtag somewhere, but when Artemis said "yes my brave one, they're beautiful tonight" she was looking at Zoë not the actual stars

• Also the 'timestamps' series + 'uniform upgrade' and 'cypress' fanfics are exactly how I envisioned not only Artemis/Zoë but also their relationship in general with the hunters and their respective roles

• They definitely love to play with the Goddess-Liutenant dynamic

• I also feel like they wouldn't put a label in their relationship, like they know they love eachother and that's enough (ofc they talked boundaries like exclusively and all), their love is free, wild and unrestrained

• And they wouldn't really try to keep it a secret but wouldn't actively tell everyone about it, but they don't need to, everyone knows

• I'm torn between the idea that a) Artemis (and the hunters) saved Zoë while she was running from the monsters Atlas had sent after her and b) young Artemis exploring the mortal world and meeting Zoë by chance and creating the hunters together

• I do firmly believe that Zoë was Artemis' first lieutenant, whether because she was her first huntress or she created that position a while after and Zoë was chosen for it

• If I recall correctly one of the things Thalia didn't like about Zoë is the way she -literally- worshipped Artemis and I think that was a bit of jealousy actually—

• Also there had definitely been hunters crushing on Zoë and her having no idea. Artemis thinks is funny but also has suddenly more -openly- affection strikes, just to remind everyone

• As far as I know Artemis was born after the titan war and Zoë being atlas' daughter was born before, making her older than Artemis and she likes reminding everyone about it every once in a while

• I feel like Zoë would have had a competitive relationship with Callisto

• Zoë is always worrying about the hunters and while Artemis loves her for that, she takes her on hunting trips together (just the two of them) and plays around with her, she loves seeing her free like this

• I actually don't think there was a confession per se but they were sharing an intimate moment together (non sexual) and they just kissed, they don't know who started it, but they didn't care

• No matter how much centuries pass, Artemis knows that there will never be anyone like Zoë, and no matter what happens, even when she's fading and the millennia are blurred together she can never forget her

• When the whole Roman thing happened and she was confused, desoriented and in unbelievable pain, her Roman and greek forms trying to take control she called for Zoë, she always helped her when the civil wars happened, when the roman empire rose, Zoë was there for her, to calm her, ground her and take care of her, loving and devoting herself to both Artemis and Diana

• Zoë sometimes sings the song of the Hespérides only for Artemis and no one else

• Zoë is supposed to have her own tent, but she always stays at Artemis'

• When there alone in their tent, Artemis sometimes turns into a wolf and starts to randomly (and gently) chew on Zoë, who at this point barely even notices

• Artemis took Zoë to hunt with her and her mother Leto once (she approves of her, Zoë is very nervous tho and overly formal with her)

• After Orion was stung by the scorpion, he went mad and tried to attack Artemis, but she defeated him with Zoë, which is why it was Zoë who was always sent to hunt him every time he returned

• Artemis brings Zoë to Olympus as her representative in meetings and companion to parties

• When she died Artemis was trying her best not to lose it in front of her, so she didn't have to worry, so she would go in peace

• Artemis is always staring at the twilight, as if she could see her, as if she could reach her. It's the time of the day she feels the loss all over again, only worsened by the stars of course, the stars

• Zoë went for reincarnation and reached the isle of the blessed and Artemis asked she be turned to a minor goddess for her achievements (kinda like Hercules)

• She does and comes back to Artemis' side, but this time it's forever (delusional)

This got a bit too long but I think that's all, if I think of anything else I'll make another post

[something-something-here]

Oh, you think I'm gone 'cause I left.

But I'm in the trees, I'm in the breeze

My footsteps on the ground

You'll see my face in every place

But you can't catch me now

Through wading grass, the months will pass

You'll feel it all around

I'm here, I'm there, I'm everywhere

But you can't catch me now

No, you can't catch me now.

"In the years following Zoé's death I have done many things. Since her death, I have fought two wars, and gained another lieutenant. Sometimes, it almost seems that I have forgotten her.

But when I look up at the stars, I can see my forever, and I am reminded of her. Her eyes as black as night, her smile, her soothing voice, when I look up at the stars I am plagued by memories, memories of hunts and adventures and campfires, of tears and stolen kisses and nights spent snuggled into on another. I can't look at the stars anymore without the weight of everything that I have lost slamming into me, worse than holding the sky. I cannot even find solace in the stars, the infinite stars who were once sympathetic to my plight. I have forever to learn how to bear this and it honestly makes it worse. There is no escape from this pain, and I will simply have to move on, no matter how badly I want to join her in death." —Sunkellers, I Can't Look at the Stars (Ao3)

I need everyone to re-read the 'Stars' collection

Good grief by Bastille is Zartemis from Artemis' perspective after Zoë died.

They were celebrating. They'd just completed a quest, after all. They'd just stopped atlas and off to celebrate the solstice. Dancing and laughing.

She has never been fond of Olympian parties, but she felt sick. She just needed a moment, for everything to stop. To stop going around like nothing happened, how could the flowers be blooming, didn't they know? That the light of the world had withered? How could the world keep spinning? Hadn't it realised that its core had been crushed by fate's most cruel hand?

What's gonna be left of the world if you're not in it?

What's gonna be left of the world?

Why are you always so grumpy— Apollo always attempts to get her to mingle at parties, she never liked spaces that were far too crowded and loud, but everything was too much, all the voices blurring together and his voice just a distant foreign sound.

He offers her a drink, she turns around walking away, he's booing, she feels disoriented, she's confused— she's never felt like this, she's a hunter. She breathes rapidly, fight or flight. Someone shoves her, she snaps, someone's yelling, she keeps walking. Thunder. Too loud, too much. In a flash of light she's gone, not too sure where yet but everything is quiet. The most lucid part of her mind rationalizes there will be a fight tomorrow like an after thought. She's too numb to think.

You might have to excuse me

I've lost control of all of my senses

And you might have to excuse me

I've lost control of all of my words

So get drunk, call me a fool

Put me in my place, put me in my place

Pick me up, up off the floor

Put me in my place, put me in my place

She's laying on the grass, when did she lay down? She closes her eyes. Breathes.

Every minute and every hour

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

Every stumble and each misfire

I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

[something-something-here]

Ok, I wrote this in a hashtag but I think this thought deserves more attention because it's something I hadn't thought about before reading the 'is your heart still beating for me?' fic (by @ commander_lexa in Ao3) but the thing is that Artemis is not the only one mourning. Zoë arrives at Elysium, and then what? She still has all her memories, she meets old friends and she is happy for a while, but there are no stars in Elysium, no twilight and no moon.

And Zoë can't help but think of home, the hunters, are they ok? Are they happy? Do they miss her? Is [hunter] practicing her aim? Did [hunter] finally learn that recipe she was so excited about? What new types of arrows has [hunter] come up with? Are there new recruits? Are they settling well? How has Thalia been doing? Is the position putting too much pressure on her? Is she ok? Does she feel welcomed?

And Zoë can't help but miss them, smell hot chocolate coming out from one of the houses in Elysium... [Hunter] makes it just like that, with a hint of cinnamon. This was [hunter]'s favourite thing to cook.

And of course, for her there is no home without Artemis. Artemis' tent was warmer... Artemis would like the open space of these fields... They would have explored them all, together... Artemis preferred her chocolate this way... Artemis would have been just as bored as me without anything to hunt... Artemis would have liked seeing our old friends...

How is she? Is she taking care of herself? Does she miss her? Is she updating the reports or is she putting it off again? Has she found someone else? Is she happy?

There are no stars in Elysium, there is no moon, but everywhere she looks, she's there. In the fields, in the gentle breeze, in the laughter of the girls and the vastness of it all.

Her life was devoted to her, her every breath and every heartbeat, and now so is her afterlife, her every thought, her soul still burning.

I think she'd go for reincarnation, maybe in hopes to see her again, and, whether that actually happens or not (and, of course Artemis would immediately recognise her), every time she looks at the night sky there is something she simply cannot explain, she might not remember her name, but she remembers her love and devotion. In every life she feels her, restless, loving her even without knowing, she always finds her way back to her.

"Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever

In my eyes, in my words, and in everything I do

Nothing else but you ever

And there's nothing for me but

Maria

Every sight that I see is

Maria

Tony, Tony

Always you, every thought I'll ever know

Everywhere I go, you'll be

All the world is only

You and me!"

—Stephen Sondheim

Sometimes when Zoë got hurt or had close calls Artemis panicked as she was hit with the reality of Zoë being a mortal. She couldn't imagine a world without her. Once Artemis considered that maybe Zoë would be happier with a mortal as a companion, someone who could really be with her, even in the after life

And Zoë would reassure her
