I just wanted to say that I'm so happy you're exploring the dynamic between Melinöe and Prometheus. Ever since I played Hades 2, I've seen a possibility between the two (that goes beyond enemies to lovers), considering the connection they had in the game's plot. So, when I found your Witchflame content here on Tumblr, I was so happy to see that more people are realizing the possibility of this couple. I've already devoured all your fanfics and I'm completely in love with the ones that explore the characters' development, analyzing the nuances of their relationship in a natural way that fits perfectly into the game's plot. Seriously, thank you for sharing the endless possibilities of Witchflame, because they are incredible.
Oh my god I forgot i received this! I'm so sorry ahhh!! I think it's because I saw this and knew I needed to like, fully digest it and formulate a good response because, yeah! Prometheus and Melinoe do have a very interesting dynamic, one that goes beyond the traditional "enemies to lovers" trope like you mentioned.
They're very very very nuanced. Their dynamic is so unique and it's a shame many don't realize it. They are enemies but not really, and their conversations often end in agitation and frustration because they are so similar in their convictions. They're both fighting for things much larger than them, for the freedom of the gods, for the freedom of the mortals, and yet their loyalties create a conflict between them because they're both stubborn. Melinoe can't see Prometheus' point of view, and while he can possibly see hers, he cannot understand it in any way. And so they clash! Also like! Their arms! They both know what it means to count the cost if it means the end goal would be worth it.
Anyway, yeah, thank you so so much! I'm so glad you enjoy my fics, I hope you like my art too! I try my best to make what I want to see and I'm so glad more and more writers are popping up for them! Thank you so much for your kind words! Sorry for such a late reply! They mean the world to me, haha
