Title: Arrows from the Same Quiver
Summary: SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED THE FINALE OF YJ SEASON ONE. A series of one-shots centered on the friendship of Roy Harper's clone and Green Arrow's newest protégé. (AU, In Universe and personal head canons.)
Pairing: Clone!Roy & Artemis
Genre: Friendship/Romance
A/N: I shipped Spitfire so religiously, but I also shipped a lot of other pairings. I shipped Spitfire as plain friends as well. I ship SeaArrow, SuperMartian, I don't know what the other pairings are called but basically everyonexeveryone within the team. I love em all. Except for maybe the upcoming character Rocketxanyone. I like her single. c: This whole project came up because I actually liked the idea of Arty and Roy together. Then when I found out that Roy is actually a clone, I felt tempted to write about how their relationship will change and turn for the better. After all, they are both hot-headed archers. Maybe the real Roy isn't as much of a dick as Clone!Roy, but Clone!Roy is such a passionate guy, from what I can see. He really is a good guy; I think Artemis and him would make a superb team.

Introduction

He apologized profusely for everything that had happened in the last few days. Artemis just couldn't come to terms with Roy not being…well, Roy.

She approached him one night after patrolling the streets of Star City with Green Arrow. They hadn't exactly solidified their friendship yet, but she did worry about him. He took things much too hard on himself and to be frank, she didn't see why he had to withdraw himself from everyone else. Sure, he was a clone. But like Conner, he had a life of his own as well.

Her lingering thoughts on Roy vanished as soon as he opened the door for her. He whispered her name in a coarse voice. Artemis had never seen Roy Harper's eyes up front before. She quickly decided that they were quite pleasant to look at and smiled up at him.

"We haven't exactly properly introduced ourselves yet." She exclaimed and extended a hand out towards him. "I'm Artemis."

He looked away with a grim expression on his face. She withdrew her hand. "You…haven't found yourself a new name yet?"

He scowled. "Why should I? I don't deserve it."

"Conner found himself a name."

"I'm not Conner."

"Exactly. You aren't Conner. You aren't Roy Harper either." Artemis retorted. "You're Kaldur's best friend, you became 'Red Arrow' all on your own, it was you who rescued Doctor Serling Roquette from that island. You were the one who assigned the team my first official mission."

He had to smile at her attempt to make him feel better. It worked nicely. "I actually like being called Roy."

She grinned. "Nice to meet you, Roy."

Love

They'd found childhood videotapes of the missing Roy Harper back in his harmless youth. Oliver wouldn't reveal how he got his hands on such priceless mementos. It was Artemis who delivered the box of tapes to the clone's luxurious apartment home after her weekly Friday night patrol with Green Arrow. Oliver would have gone there himself, but decided against it. He decided that Roy's clone should be alone for this type of thing.

That's why Artemis was stunned when he had invited her into his home. Even more surprising, he requested for her to stay and watch the videos with him.

"You and I haven't exactly seen the real Roy Harper before. I'd feel a lot better if someone like that were with me." He explained to her.

Artemis nodded. She was curious too.

And as they played the tapes, she could only watch Roy with an endearing expression as he observed Roy Harper's every move with an affectionate face.
