hades isn’t a badass. hades named his three-headed-guard-of-the-underworld-dog spot. hades whispers to his flowers to make them grow. hades grows fruit. there’s no sun in the underworld.
hades isn’t a badass. stop saying this false thing
In myth, Hades’ most remarked upon traits are 1) how responsible/reliable he is, 2)how sober-minded he is, 3)how dedicated, implacable, and long-remembering he is, and 4)how boring and grim most of the other Olympians think he is to be around. Oh and notably, that if you play him a song he likes, he’ll basically give you anything you ask for(though not without conditions).
Hades is, canonically, a gigantic nerd. If they’d had trainsets, he’d have been the Olympian who collected trainsets, meticulously corrected with exacto knife and hobby-paints the errors toy-makers introduced to those trainsets, and then endlessly talked about those trainsets to anyone sat next to him at Thanksgiving Dinner 😐 When he wasn’t trying to rope them into an interminable discussion about gardening or divine law, that is 😐 😐 He’s the sort of god who frequently handed out punishment like giving someone a million-piece puzzle where every piece is shaped the same, that resets itself at the start of every day if you don’t complete it, and then he keeps the last piece on his person at all times as a secret private joke for eternity because he finds you personally distasteful(not even because he’s mad at you or hates you particularly; he just doesn’t like you as a person) 😐 😐 😐 He is. A Gigantic. Nerd.
He’s also like one of the only gods who is faithful to his wife. And he listens to her like when she asks for a soul to be released and he’s like “But honey, the rules.” And she just gives him that look and he goes “Yes dear,” and lets the soul go with the easiest freaking instructions ever in a myth. And the human still fucks it up. Not his fault Persephone, not Hades’ fault this time. Essentially, Hades is sorta like the accountant suburban dad who collects really specific figurines and gets really grumpy when people mess up his lawn. Do you know how hard his wife worked on those roses? He is calling his attorney. Oh wait, he is also an attorney.

Everybody knows it’s Persephone that you’ve got to watch out for.
I love this post every time I see it.
I love Persephone and Hades, but I could also totally see Mycroft as Hades and Greg as Persephone
Mycroft is a wealthy government official who spends all his spare time at his countryside mansion. Greg is a local policeman who visits him at the estate whenever Mycroft returns from London.
It didn’t take long for Greg to realise he had a thing for Mycroft showing his possessive side in bed. The fact that he liked having Mycroft tie him up just came naturally from there.
Mycroft likes himself a bit of rough, even if it means having to get down on his knees in a public restroom. If anything it only adds to the excitement.
After a while he only allows one stranger in particular to use his mouth – they seem to connect in some sort of way. If nothing else they both enjoy their short weekly meetings, only communicating through a hole between two stalls.
All Mycroft knows about the other man is that he is a biker judging by the boots he can catch a glimpse underneath the wall of the cubicle.
To say that Mycroft was sceptical as the policeman rolled up on his motorcycle would have been a foolish understatement. However his apparent fondness of Greg as well as the fact that their first date had been a success made him get on the bike when Greg grinned and offered him to sit up behind him. After a short, if yet to Mycroft very intense, ride they reached a predestined park. While sharing pastries, fruit and champagne Mycroft found that perhaps motorcycling wasn’t that bad after all, if it meant he got a chance to look at Greg in a leather outfit. The rough look suited Greg, even if it would lead to Mycroft getting a stubble burn from their kisses.
‘The Profound Bond’ – A new romantic comedy starring Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins. When Federal Agent Dean Winchester gets paired with an angel as part of the Bureau’s new Human-Angel Cooperation Initiative, the partnership seems less than ideal. Castiel is arrogant, painfully inept in the ways of normal human interaction, and less than stellar at routine questioning. But as time passes, the human and angel begin to find themselves growing less at odds and more endeared to each other. Loosely inspired by aesc’s Below Skyscrapers. (Watch on Youtube)
