    Summary

    Picking up the pieces after being separated for three years isn't as easy as it may seem. A quiet, burning kind of chaos sweeps through Feudal Japan, and it's going to take a lot more than a fairy tale ending to put things back together. They defeated a man who would become the Devil. Can they survive a man who would become a God?

    [Remastered for Ao3]

    Summary

    The thing about love, of course, is after the initial wonder fades, it is a choice. Aphrodite gets blamed for an awful lot of heartbreak that is not actually her fault. People do so love to pretend they are powerless, that she controls the tides of their hearts, when really, she just gives them a little push.

    As pretty as Ares' heart was, it alone would not sustain the feeling in her breast. It is so terribly tacky to indulge in oneself, what one is, and it would be painful, yes, to uproot the emotion he had planted in her, but she could do it.

    She would have, once.

    Summary

    Thanatos takes him away when he can. Not far and not for long, of course, but together they venture into the Underworld, seeing the domain that is Zagreus’ by birthright and yet is unfamiliar to him as the moon. He has to work twice as hard to allow for the respites and, while he doesn’t particularly enjoy the feeling of eternally playing catch-up, he suffers it for Zagreus’ sake.

    He would suffer many things to bring Zagreus a measure of peace, he thinks.

    -

    Where Thanatos keeps stealing Zagreus away for short trips around the Underworld, against his own better judgement.
