It is so fascinating to see the discussion about Zatanna and Artemis in season 3. Some people are mad at Zee and Megan and think they betrayed her. Some people think Artemis needed it and don’t see an issue.
On the one hand using legerdemain to force therapy and closure is pushing boundaries. Is it an abuse of power? Is it like a forced intervention? At what point does it cross that invisible line from guidance to manipulation.
On the other Artemis hasn’t exactly been honest to Zee either. Way back in S1 she wouldn’t tell anyone about her family. S2 she fakes her death to most of the team. Zee included. S3 she’s been secretly coordinating with the outsiders, the team, the league, and Batman inc. We don’t know how much Zee knew, it’s sort of implied she had no idea. But it could very easily be that she was told off screen.
Do these actions justify a deception like limbo? Are both of them guilty of secret keeping for the greater good? At what point does protection turn into Harm. Do intentions matter? Idk but i think the discussion and discourse is interesting, hopefully it’s addressed in S4
