@therkalexander

look up Pharos Ensemble. I’ve found what should be the Soundtrack for your show. Erini, the lead singer is incredible. I feel like this is the lullaby Iason sang to Persephone and that Charon hums on the Styx.

Congrats to everyone who’s ever written something and posted it on AO3 on your Hugo Award nomination.


(The entirety of AO3 was nominated in the “Related Works” category, so technically everyone who’s contributed to the Archive is a nominee.)

Why is Persephone so worried about Hades feeling emasculated just because she’s awesome?

Probably because she grew up in a patriarchal world where emasculating a man is potentially dangerous and could get a woman hurt or killed.

You know, just like this one.

And it’s Hades himself who has to convince her that he pretty much the fuck over toxic masculinity because he has had enough time to see how badly that screws up all mortals of all genders who eventually die and go to his realm.

If there’s one thing I learned since I signed up on 10/12/2011 3:01:08 AM, it’s that #receiver of many takes up too much of my time.



@kata-chthonia @therkalexander never takes up too much of my time! Never!!!
