he says his sunday prayers into your skin; takes his communion in the hollow of your bones, in the sharp lines of your hips. you are all three: his altar; his holy water; his two knees, bent. you drink the hymns from his lips. this makes you holy, makes you sacred, makes you a god. how does it feel to be divine? forget church. your body is a fucking temple, and he’s on his knees again, and you’re laughing.

Destiny; fieldplate gauntlets description (via disintegrativeruin)
❛ Doesn’t matter if it isn’t new. I just… ❜
He bit his lip as he ran a hand through his hair softly. He continued to look away from her, playing with his fingers carefully. He was going to try and be strong….shit. ❛ But will talking really help? ❜
He was going to break in a few moments, the more he dwelled on this. His eyes finally looking up at her, his hand talking hers and holding it. He needed touch, he needed to know he wasn’t evil, he needed to know that he wasn’t as terrible as he felt. He couldn’t.
❛ I…I ended….I had to kill a child. She…she died in her…her father’s arms. ❜ With his words, he broke. He crashed, and he burned. And it was a miracle he would ever seem normal again.
HE WAS BROKEN, AND PERSEPHONE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX HIM, and it scared her. She was not one to lack the ability to perform a task, yet the one placed in front of her was as daunting as it was austere. In that moment he seemed so disconsolate, even for the Underworld.
❛ Darling, that is the job that comes with being one of us. We all must do awful things, but it does not make you an awful person. We must suffer, like mortals -- only worse. It is our burden to live with for what we get. ❜
Holding his hands tightly in her own, she knew he had broached the subject he wished to avoid, and she held the responsibility for it. Looking up at him she only saw a shattered boy, not the man she usually saw roaming. ❛ I will not lie, you will live with this for the rest of your days, but the pain will fade. It may take time but it will fade. You are not evil for this, or terrible, you are just cursed with the same fate as all of us. We must all endure the terrible things we have done. It doesn't make us bad though. You aren't bad. ❜
And I shall put it to good use.
It wasn’t just her. It was everyone. He wasn’t in the mood to talk to anyone about this, about anything really at this point. He was upset and he was about to burst into tears. An incredibly rare sight for those around him. He refused to show weakness in front of another, and at this point, he was about to.
❛ It is not just your. I am not in the mood for conversation. ❜
At least he was honest. More than most could say, really. He felt bad for his actions. Oh well. He needed to focus on the events that just occurred. Not anything else honestly. ❛ The events of today were far from pleasant. That’s all. ❜
HE WAS ON THE BREAKING POINT, and Persephone was about to push him over, it was all in good faith though. She knew from experience the benefits of talking to someone rather than letting whatever is bothering you to slowly kill you alive. Besides, it was rare to see the man in such a shape, it spiked a bone of curiosity in her.
❛ You are not usually in the mood to converse, so this isn't new. ❜ Tilting her head up to glance at him, her lips formed a straight line, eyes flustering around his face, trying to uncover what he was really feeling. Her mother use to tell her the best one to understand someone was by looking in their eyes. Persephone didn't usually listen to a word her mother said. ❛ What exactly happened? It is rare to see you so upset, I am only trying to offer you a chance to talk to someone. ❜
When they say her name, they mean it to be bitter. When she hears them say her name, she knows that it holds power.
The Never Book (via cavallon)
Thanatus was in a mood. Well, he always was in a mood, but he could not shake this particular emotion. He should be used to the truths of his occupation. He would have to kill the innocent, the young, the old, and the middle aged. It was reality. He came to terms with it years ago, it had been so long since he broke down due to an individual’s death. It was pathetic when he was like this.
He didn’t expect Persephone to see him or approach him. Not like so. It was more than just…her approaching him, he wasn’t in the mood. Guilt, anger, dear, sadness all took over him and he was crushed with the emotion. ❛ I hardly do. It hardly affects you Persephone. Go away. ❜
SHE DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO TELL HER all of his problems and issues, though she didn't expect such a harsh reply. It was not common for her to be told to go away. Most enjoyed her company, or at least pretended too. Her job was to rule the Underworld, not to be nice. Every once in a while though she found herself in a caring mood, and today was one of them.
❛ Why you speak so harshly to a women of my nature, well I'll never know. But it does affect me, everyone and everything down here does. Now, tell me. ❜ It wasn't that she cared about him, but rather there was a instilled sort of caring for most of the people in the Underworld. A Queen should care for those she rules, it only made sense. He resided in the Underworld, therefore she outstretched herself to him, as someone to talk to. He didn't have to be so outright mean.
S T A R T E R F O R | messorxm PERSEPHONE WAS LINGERING IN THE HALLS when she saw him. They were on friendly terms, however friendly two people in the Underworld could be. Years upon years of isolate taught her the basic skills of observing people: taking in the way their eyes wrinkled when they smiled, or how their lips would curl up into a snarl for just a spilt moment. She couldn't place what she saw on his face, guilt or fear, or just tiredness perhaps.
Approaching him with rather hesitant steps, not out of fear but rather curiosity. To see his reaction to her. He towered other her, but most people did when you reached a measly five foot one. Height didn't frighten her, she had met men over six feet who were cowards, crumbled under her stare. ❛ Care to explain why you look so well -- dead. ❜

↳ Hades and Persephone
Persephone was gathering flowers in a field when she was kidnapped by Hades, who was in love with her and who’d been permitted to Persephone’s hand by Zeus. Demeter, however, was so distraught by the abduction of her daughter that she refused to let anything grow until Persephone was safely returned aboveground. Eventually, Zeus told Hades to release the goddess from the underworld and Hades complied. However, since Persephone had eaten pomegranate seeds in the underworld, she was forever bound to it and so had to spend half of each year with Hades.
