You know that thing where you just hate someone so much that you can't stop thinking about how perfect they are? Their emerald eyes and auburn hair? Their beauty that's beyond compare and smile like a breath of spring? The way they're so attractive they could have anyone they wanted?

And then you realize that wait maybe that isn't "hate" that's keeping you up at night?

Dolly Parton, Tumblr and AO3 have you sorted.

(The Lil Nas X cover of the song was nominated for yuletide, but I suspect the fanworks that come out of that will be less femslashy.)
