    Summary

    Klaus von Reinherz has three appointments today: one is with a group of French necromancers, one is with the leader of a demonic host, and one is with a potential Witness of God. Two out of these three will end in general injury and property destruction. Two out of these three, he is very happy to see.

    Summary

    There are red leaves floating on the river. Not cool glossy green like the trees in Elysium, but red and bright and out of place.

     

    They feel warm in Aida’s hands (when she remembers how to have hands.) Red on top and shiny gold beneath and they remind her of the leaves on the olive trees, in the little grove in the hills above Athens. They’re like drops of blood on the water (she remembers blood) and they come from somewhere beyond the river that borders Elysium.

     

    They form trails, if she’s paying attention, fallen leaves marking out a meandering path through Elysium, opposite to the way the river flows. Something’s entering Elysium, again and again. Calling the warriors. Opening the gates. Making it change. So Aida keeps looking for leaves.

    (Because I started wondering what would make a little shade decide to stan Zagreus, and the idea kind of ran away with me)

    Summary

    Zagreus stops in front of him, head tilted up to look at him. There’s a cut on his face, and without thinking Thanatos reaches out, runs his thumb over it to soothe it shut so at the least he does not bleed.

    Zagreus is still looking at him, quiet.

    “Zagreus?”

    “You came,” Zagreus finally says. He smiles; it makes all the flames that curl around his laurels spark. There is such a soft and tender pleasure in his words. “After all this time.”

    Summary

    “It’d be funny if we got stuck in here,” said Galo.

    “No, Galo, it wouldn’t really,” said Lio, rolling his eyes, and of course the elevator stopped working, then, and Lio wasn’t a fan of that at all.
