Summary
“The universe didn’t tell me to love you,” Steve says finally, passing a hand over the scars on his torso, as he often does. “It told me to save you. They’re– they’re two different things.”
— a coda to the lathe

Summary
Zagreus stops in front of him, head tilted up to look at him. There’s a cut on his face, and without thinking Thanatos reaches out, runs his thumb over it to soothe it shut so at the least he does not bleed.
Zagreus is still looking at him, quiet.
“Zagreus?”
“You came,” Zagreus finally says. He smiles; it makes all the flames that curl around his laurels spark. There is such a soft and tender pleasure in his words. “After all this time.”

Summary
Thanatos will learn about this curious mortal, Zagreus, whose entire life is supposed to be led in devotion to him, to culminate in his death. Maybe then he will understand why he feels so odd about the whole situation.
At the very least, he has never spent much time in contact with mortals who still live. It may be interesting to see what one is like while alive. An amusement until the day of the sacrifice would not go amiss.
-
The day of Zagreus's sacrifice to the god of Death is drawing near when he meets a mysterious stranger that appears directly in his rooms.

Summary
Hermes is getting his first tattoo. He has it all planned out, a golden wing behind his ear, and is excited and anxious for the experience. What he didn’t expect was to become instantly enamored by the ink covered, near silent, tattoo artist at the parlor. What had initially been a plan to get only one tattoo turned into getting some piercings as well. Then coming back for a second. Maybe a third. Soon Hermes is sitting in Charon’s chair for hours long sessions to cover his back and his arms with sleeves of birds and flowers.
Surely not just to see the tattoo artist, of course. Who would do such a thing just to indulge a silly little crush?

Mingi remembers his ears popping from how hot and fast his blood rushed through them. “Kim Hongjoong? About yea high, likes to brag about a mullet he grew in college and has a nose straighter than we’ll ever be?”
