How would Hades feel about running into one of the Time Lords such as Jenny, her father, or Romana ( i think she's a Time Lady idk about Classic Who Stuff ), espiecially if one of them ended up in his domain through like TARDIS means?

To start off, let me say that I do have a SPACEY-WACEY verse, very handy for writing with Doctor Who characters, and I’m also dreaming of writing with Firefly characters ( I adore Joss Whedon ), Star Wars and Star Trek characters in this verse as well! In this verse, which is tagged ( verse ) the stars never shone for me, Hades is an alien who runs a prison planet, where it’s his job to dole out punishments and ensure the secure confinement of some of the universe’s most dangerous criminals, along with actually voyaging out on occasion to retrieve them and transport them from the planet of their apprehension to his prison planet, Plouton. BUT, if you’re asking about traditional, king of the Underworld Hades …
Well, honestly, I think he’d be very conflicted. On the one hand, little infuriates him more than anyone who tries to CHEAT death, whether by trying to escape from the Underworld, by trying to smuggle someone else out of the Underworld, or simply by using supernatural means to extend one’s life while still in the mortal realm. He’s not unreasonable. He is, in fact, one of the more reasonable of the Ancient Greek pantheon, in my opinion, and so he’s fairly happy to bargain, in extremely special circumstances, but if you try to DECEIVE him? If you intentionally and maliciously go behind his back to take what is his? You will see that Persephone is not the only one who can inspire dread. However, he would also see Time Lords / Ladies as a unique opportunity to talk to someone who UNDERSTANDS him. It is different for those on Olympus, because everyone the Olympians are surrounded with on a day to day basis is also immortal, so they don’t have to deal with the constantly looming reality of LOSS. They don’t have to read the thoughts of newly deceased souls and listen as they panic about leaving behind husbands, wives, children, day after day after day, to experience that devastation and fear along with them over and over again. But a Time Lord? Not only do Time Lords experience the physical reality of loss, as they do lose their original bodies, and in doing so they do undergo the pain and fear of death, even if they don’t have to face it permanently, but in travelling the universe as they do, they are regularly forced to experience the loss of others whom they have come to love, and who have not been granted such a long and lonely existence. And they, too, live by a set of heartbreaking RULES. Just as Hades knows he has the power to give life back to any of the souls in his care, so too do Time Lords know they could use their travelling machines to stop the death of those they love. But in both cases, selfishly using their powers in that way could cause devastation for the rest of creation, so they must not act, even when the solution is right at their fingertips. Yes, I believe Hades would have quite a lot to talk about with a Time Lord.
