I for once don't hate Tessia for having a crush on Art. It's just that she can be utterly annoying at times, which is I guess normal for kids.
Yeah, I think we forget how kids actually act, because we're so used to Art, who is actually an adult within a kids body.
What makes it really sting is the adults in their life kind of pushing them together. I get a joke is a joke but coming from all directions, it makes it seem like Art has no opinion in the matter. It feels like he chooses so everyone can stop talking about it. I still stand by Art being the type that love will hit him suddenly, and perhaps hard. And then he won't know what to do.
May I just remind everyone that she is currently a child, who is experiencing her first crush.
I love Tessia.
