Summary
A change was happening in the Underworld. More accurately, the King of Olympus had appointed a new psychopomp. Now, Charon did not know much about his new associate other than he was supposed to be fast, very fast. Even then, it was probably going to be annoying, since any form of change was always annoying.
Then suddenly, there was laughter in the Temple of the Styx.

Hermes was almost beside himself with excitement! Chthonic gods were fascinating, and the boatman was no exception. He had to get closer, maybe fly in circles around him a few times, or even steal his hat, just to see what the other would do. A partnership with someone far removed from his family sounded exactly like the thing he needed.

Or how Hermes and Charon slowly but surely develop and define their partnership and themselves. Not that much can happen, since gods can't really change, right?Bookmarked by Dormitis

Summary
The Collector’s morals had long since been abandoned in his search for the cure, his meddling burying the island in Malaise. Failure after failure, and still he persevered, praying that something would change. When the Beheaded broke down his door —a headless phantasm of his former king— the Collector was forced to reckon with a whole new problem. His one success burned away every lie he told to keep himself safe, and the Beheaded’s determination uncovered the deeply hidden part of himself that hoped he might be worth loving.

Summary
He thought it would feel good - amazing, even, to finally feel appreciated and admired in a way he had longed for since his creation. He thought it would make his thousands of years of rowing and nothing else worth it. To have someone finally acknowledge him. To comfort him and praise him, to tell him that he isn’t just a simple-minded creature, that he is loved, cared for, cherished. And yet-
It hurts.
Each time Hermes compliments him, an overwhelming, entirely unfamiliar pain shoots through his too-large body. It throbs. It burns. It hurts like nothing Charon has ever experienced. And worse yet - behind it all, there is a pleasantness to the pain. It aches in such an unbearably nice way, entirely too overwhelming and good for a monster like Charon.
