5000letters:

I could write a novel about Persephone and Hades but Persephone as a loud, gap-toothed impatient warrior who nearly scratches out his eyes when he tries to steal her and makes him regret every moment of it and Hades as a bespectacled frowny man who is constantly sighing and trying to pretend he doesn’t rule the underworld by smoking Cubans and being old English classy

Like, Persephone is sitting on a chair leaning backwards on it just inches from falling into a pool of writhing dead things and she says “reading the financial section of the newspaper doesn’t make you any less the ruler of hell, you know that right?” and Hades heaves a massive breath and lowers his glasses to look at her with a pursed and irritated lip and she shrugs, smiles (he falls in love again, with the space between her teeth) and she says “I’m just sayin’, you’re acting like a librarian when just last week I saw you drag Orpheus back here by his teeth.”
