Is there a link for all chapters so far from The Good Councilor ?
No. I definitely need to do that. For now though, you can find them if you search through the tag.

YALLLLLLLLLLLLL for real. Just look at em go. Trying new things. Goddamn
If it's not too spoilery, when did Aidon first learn that he could grow plants and how did he react to this new-found knowledge. It was pretty heartwarming to learn that among the after-effects of their hieros gamos, one was that they now shared powers.
Aw thanks! And it’s not spoilery at all.
He left several narcissus flowers as a calling card for Orpheus back in Chapter One. (He thinks humans are as clueless as he is.)
My headcanon is that Hades and Persephone were having happy special married time together in Nysa a year or two after the events in Destroyer of Light.
A bunch of flowers appeared afterward, and he assumed it was Persephone’s doing. That is until she started running through the flower filled field flipping out about them (and subsequently wove him a flower crown from them in her excitement).
At that point they discovered that he had gained some of her abilities and she his, and both of them set about idly practicing them for the next several decades.
Likely not going to write out that scene, but I won’t stop anyone if they wanted to.

I am on Chopped. Pomegranate seeds are a basket ingredient. I eat every single one, leaving none for my dish. I am immediately kicked out of the kitchen.

Listen, after 5000 years, you cannot convince me that Hades and Demeter didn’t repair their relationship. I mean, Demeter is a grown woman who should be able to handle separation from Persephone. (The reason we still have Fall and Winter is because she realized that it’s actually healthy for the soil to have a break from being farmed.)
Also, Hades is the eldest child, and Demeter is one of the middle children. You cannot convince me they wouldn’t work together to mess with Zeus, the asshole youngest sibling.

Several have come in and I will definitely get to yours, but I’ve been busy getting well and catching up on life things for the last several days so mustering the energy and time has been a challenge. I’ll get to yours soon. I promise.
And if anyone else wants to send theirs in, I will absolutely do directors commentary
Well there’s six books to go in this series so…..
Well there’s six books to go in this series so…..
How erotic do you think the show will be?
I’m hoping somewhere between Game of Thrones and Outlander. And definitely on the non-exploitation side.
I will never be ok with tits for titsake.
