Summary
This is his domain. It ought to bend to his will alone; its residents reverent and untroubled.
But Zagreus is trouble and irreverence personified.
Or
Hades employs the disguise of a red shade to ensure that his son's escape attempts continue to fail.Bookmarked by tea_under_starlight

Summary
Hades looks at the blade, looks back at his son. Opens his mouth to speak.
"Kill me, then," Zagreus spits at him. "I know you want to. Kill me."

Summary
He wants his mother, for one thing. Like a lost child with aching feet, he wants his mother.
He wants to drink of the Lethe, be lost forever in a numb haze of white. He wants to cloak himself in darkness until even Nyx herself can’t find him, fall backwards into Chaos itself, sink heavy and useless into his grandparent’s domain and scatter into a million different parts. He wants to go to Elysium and bring the King and the Bull low there just to hear the crowd’s cheers for him, a million blurred faces who don’t know who he is or what he’s done and never will-- and love him despite.
It’s not real love, of course; they just like the show.
And if Zagreus really is the god of blood, the Fates must be laughing.

God of the Dead, Father of the Never-Alive by ishouldwritethatdown

Summary
Cerberus stands guard for the most private chambers of the House of Hades, on the day (or night) that the Prince is expected to arrive. His Lord and Master, equipped only to deal with matters of the dead and not the soon-to-be-alive, departs the House in search of divine aid. Every one of the Underworld's resources is diverted tonight (or today) and the dead will have to rule themselves for the time being, for their King first and foremost is a husband and, if all turns out well as Nyx can only hope it does, a father.
