    Summary

    Morgott stares at the sword, the realization of what it is sinking in. And the significance of it is not lost on him. A Carian engagement sword. A symbol of commitment and devotion between partners. A symbol of bond and loyalty, of a marriage that goes beyond mere obligation.

    Everything their marriage is not.

    Summary

    Achilles cannot imagine what this prince from the surface might be like. Raised by Demeter! A young god with his father’s wrath and his mother’s impetuousness, fuelled by his grandmother’s calculated spite. He thinks of the swathes of dead that disembark Charon’s ferry still shivering and huddled together as though their shades could hold warmth.

    Perhaps the Zagreus who has grown up with cold eternal is as icy and cruel as Demeter herself. Perhaps he will bring nothing but strife. Olympian history is full of sons overthrowing their fathers, after all.

    Summary

    Summary

    When Thanatos falls in love with the kingdom's trouble-making crown prince, he is not expecting it will amount to anything more than a passing infatuation. He is also not expecting to be made the prince's bodyguard, and he is certainly not expecting the prince will ever love him back.

    Thanatos, it transpires, is wrong about many things.

    Summary

    “As boorish as it all is, I can at least understand why this little one is having such a difficult time today,” Aphrodite hums, “it can be so very hard to say goodbye to the one you love most.”

    Thanatos stiffens, and he slowly slides his gaze over to the side, careful to not seem disrespectful towards the goddess. The mountaintop view lets him see far into the distance, even down at Korinthia, the city’s trees bursting with soft, pink spring blossoms.

    “It can be, I would guess.”

    --

    Thanatos finds it difficult to sort through his feelings about Zagreus, and it takes a literal Goddess of Love spelling it out for him to understand what's going on inside his own head.

    Summary

    Thanatos always remembers. How Zagreus’s touch is so warm against his skin, how just the brush of his fingertips over the flesh of his arm ignites his senses.

    He knows himself to be the opposite: cold, in more ways than one. There’s no warmth in his own arms, his fingers more like the ice Zagreus is just barely now experiencing.

    He’s cold, in the silence that he finds comfort in and how the way Zag so easily smiles isn’t something just as easy to him.

    And that he’s selfish; Thanatos wants everything that Zagreus is, every piece of him.

    Summary

    Zagreus sees a tiny flower in his mother's garden and thinks it is the perfect present for Death incarnate.

    Meanwhile, Thanatos - the aforementioned Death incarnate - just so happens to be a clumsy mess with a crush.

    ...

    "Fine. What is it you ransacked from your father's domain this time?"

    Zagreus lit up even more, if such a thing was possible.

    "Actually, to keep things fair, I've ransacked my mother's domain this time."

    Summary

    Summary

    It’s quiet here. Even if the car alarm on the neighbor’s goddamn BMW has been going off for the past twenty minutes. Quiet, even though the alarm’s got the neighbor’s dog howling like crazy, and the neighbor works second shift and isn’t there to comfort the dumb dog.

    It’s quiet…They haven’t spoken to each other since that morning, when Yuri went off to go see his tutor, and Otabek went off to do whatever the hell it was he did in the mornings before he hit the rink.

    “You’re used to the noise?”

    “Yeah, but…I think I like the quiet too.”

    Or: Yuri spends the summer with Otabek in Almaty.
