Drabbly Things

by Kelly Holden

Collection of 100 word drabbles and strict variations from the lives of Artemis, Holly and their friends and family. Mostly implied A/H, some mild adult themes, unless stated otherwise belong to a single continuity. This update begins chapter 38.

9. Why Not Minerva?

Why Not Minerva?

The one that isn't in continuity with the rest.

"Why not Minerva?" his father asked. Artemis smiled. "She's too young."

"Why not Minerva?" Butler asked. Artemis kept typing. "It was only physical attraction. She's merely an intriguing companion."

"Why not Minerva?" Juliet asked. Artemis handed her Myles. "Because she's blonde."

"Why not that girl we rescued the imp from?" Mulch asked. Artemis shrugged. "Because I don't want to."

"Why not Minerva?" Holly asked. Artemis's heart broke. "She reminds me too much of my younger self."

"Why not Minerva?" the author asked. Artemis said condescendingly, "because you created Holly and me to complete each other. You just didn't know then."

Ok, that was sappy, and I think the original half-drabble version was better, but I can't remember exactly how it went now.
