Summary
“Marry me.”
Thanatos blinks once, “Excuse me?”
“Marry. Me.”
Than isn’t entirely certain that Zagreus knows that its him he’s proposing to. The last time he’d woken, he’d been absolutely convinced he’d been cuddling up to Hypnos, which… had done absolute wonders for Thanatos’ self-esteem. Even if Hypnos is literally bundled up in the world’s comfiest quilt 24/7, the only one he wants Zagreus cuddling with is him.

Summary
"You need comfort, lad, and we're happy to provide." Achilles meets Zagreus' eyes intently until the young prince lowers his, nods, and sticks out his hands.
Holding one hand while Achilles holds the other, listening as he sends their prince off with a story, Patroclus thinks the feeling of staying with him is so much more than happiness.
After letting himself feel small for the first time, Zagreus wants that lightness again; after caring for him, Patroclus and Achilles want that too.

Summary
He can't remember the last time he cried. It was probably over something childish. It didn't hurt. It can't have hurt, not like this, or he wouldn't have forgotten.

Summary
He's late, he realizes.
There's a lot of blood here, he realizes a moment later. Not the blackened stains of shades temporarily banished, but the dark-red and glistening of mortal blood, spattered in desperate arcs across the grass, staining the water where the River Lethe pools. Across the chamber, it shifts to a trail of blood, the imprint of bare footprints burned into the darkening liquid.
There. There, slumped with his back against a green-glowing infernal trove, an ethereal sword buried in his chest, a pool of blood slowly spreading beneath him—Zagreus, Prince of the Underworld, his warmth and light so faded that Thanatos didn't even realize he was still in the chamber.
