[fangirlingpuggle]

Reading your post from a couple years ago that starts “A dumb Thesterius fic prompt/idea where Hades doesn’t actually agree to let Asterius into Elysium” and DAMN I WISH SOMEONE WOULD WRITE THAT.

Thank you so very much I'm so glad you liked it.

Yeah I love the idea of Theseus just constantly breaking out Asterius out and into Elysium everyone just giving up stopping him.

Theseus just going 'The ruler of the underworld has made hios decision but as it is a stupid decision I have chosen to ignore it'

I also just imagine Zagreus running into them in Erebus on one of his runs and like '...What is happening'

[furby-yeehaw]

I just saw someone refer to Theseus x Asterius as “burgerking” im fucking leaving goodbye 😭

[aura-likes-all-the-things]

They made up… “brotherhood” my ass

Finally did Extreme Measures for Theseus and Asterius and now they are arguing cause Asterius respects Zag now. It feels like mom and dad are fighting istg

Can I request Theseus, Achilles, Patroclus, and Asterius from Hades with a reader who's love language is being a general nuisance. Putting objects on their head, climbing into their laps, swiping their stuff when they're not looking (reader will give it back immediately, they just like to tease lol), sticking their cold ass hands up their shirts, etc?

Fandom: Hades

Character(s): Achilles, Patroclus, Theseus, Asterius

Note(s): I went ahead and wrote this as poly's for the characters. Also, been reading Song of Achilles so I tried to use some of the personalities for Pat and Achilles from that for them here.

Achilles/Patroclus

Chuckles escape both of their lips when you climb into one of their laps. Patroclus easily resting a hand on your hip as you sit on him. Achilles is the one to rest his chin on the top of your head, wrapping his arms tightly around you.

There are many times of Achilles missing something and going to Pat, saying, “My love have you seen-“ only to stop when you’re in Patroclus’s lap holding said item. Patroclus doesn’t really mind (or notice) if his things go missing.

Patroclus rolls his eyes should you make flower crowns or just put random things on his head. He retaliates by taking it off and putting it on your head instead. Achilles does his best to see how steady his balance is with all the objects you place on his head. Pat calls him a showoff, but it’s worth it to have you smile.

Asterius/Theseus

Considering it’s also kind of a love language for Theseus, Asterius has to be the one to reign you in. That meme of the adult with leashes on all the children? That’s Asterius with you and Theseus (and Zagreus when the godling decides to come by and antagonize Theseus).

Theseus will squeal if you put your cold hands on his skin. He’s already dead, the cold shouldn’t bother him, but he scolds you and chases you around after you pull that stunt. There is a smile on his face as he declares vengeance when he does catch you (vengeance being peppering your face with kisses and not letting you go).

Please don’t take their stuff. They have too many sharp objects to prep for the Coliseum battles. Asterius is gentler when scolding and asking for his things back. Theseus is a pouty baby.

Theseus(+ Asterius obvi) with Son! Reader

It is no mystery that I am a geek, that I am a Greek mythology nerd, and that precisely led me to fall HARD for Hades, and I take advantage of every aspect of the myths for my writing.

how, for example, that in the myths, Theseus had a son with an Amazon (which could be Hippolita or Antiope depending on the version), who died, and his son, Hippolytus, became one of the hero's tragedies.

Basically he was a believer of Artemis who took a vow of chastity, his stepmother fell in love with him, he rejected her, she defamed him and killed herself, Theseus found out and despised his son, even when he had an accident in his cart ( which in most versions HE CAUSED by asking Poseidon to punish his son), but when the truth is revealed Theseus goes directly to his son in his last moments to apologize (and not leave him alone in his last moments).

Although his son forgave him in the myth, I like to think that, in perspective and using the logic that they are in the Hades universe, his son did not really think he would see his father again, so although in the moment he FORGIVE HIM definitely left things tense, since Hippolytus/reader ended up in Elysium because of his devotion to Artemis (in some versions he even becomes her sidekick).

and I like to think that while Theseus IS insufferable and pompous, he definitely has a soft spot for his son, seeing him as proud to have a close relationship with the gods and wanting to dedicate his life to them. probably also when they were alive encouraged several of Hipolito/reader's more violent hobbies, even if it was a little worrying at times😅

and now that he is back in the prime of his youth in Elysium and his son is with him, let's say that Theseus "discreetly" wants to compensate for his faults in life (especially the end of his son's life), it will be a bit of a head. tough but he's not stupid to realize that he screwed up big time with his son.

They probably do bonding by sparring and sparring with each other, they fight while talking and catching up on each other's lives (or, well, "life") and when Asterius joins, he also quickly blends in as a mediator between the two if they argue (especially about a certain _incident_)

Although Theseus is proud of his son and loves him, he never shuts up. Asterius on the other hand lets the boy talk and talk and generally gives more room for his opinion, he is someone Hippolytus/reader can go to to make sure those secrets don't get out between the two of them.

Asterius would refer to Hippolytus/reader as "little one" or "little prince", CHANGE MY MIND.

IMAGINE IF HIPPOLYTUS/READER WAS A KIND OF THIRD CHAMPION OF THE ELYSIUM! Theseus would be so PROUD of his son, crying and all "they grow up so fast."

Asterius would be a little more serious, but it would probably be because he himself is holding back the urge to cry while congratulating Hippolytus/reader on his first victory in Elysium and earning his champion title.

Theseus and Asterius would take the issue of Hippolytus/reader's chastity VERY SERIOUSLY not only out of respect for Artemis, but because 1- he already had a terrible experience with women and 2- it is something very important FOR HIM, so good luck trying to approach him or, gods forbid, flirt.

although I think that if Hippolytus/reader were interested in any relationship, it would probably be one similar to that of Asterius and Theseus themselves, a "brotherly" (homoerotic) bond, someone he could consider a rival, an enemy who became into a friend, an ally, a brother, something for him.

and that's why I like the idea of pairing him with Zagreus.

1- a love interest who is not a Tsundere (Hippolytus/reader is more virgin than Olive oil, so he is quite shy).

2- it would be an interesting dynamic (How Zagreus is going to fight with this boy, son of the man he hates the most, only to realize that they have a lot in common, earning each other's respect and even their help)

and 3- THESEUS AND ASTERIUS'S REACTIONS WOULD BE HILARIOUS

Theseus would be SO CONVINCED that this DAEMON manipulated his chaste son so that he would go easy on him and lose his title. HOW DARE HE THINK HE COULD EVEN BREATHE THE SAME AIR AS HIS SON?! MUCH LESS COURT HIM!? OVER HIS DOUBLE DEAD BODY!

The only way for Theseus to understand WHY Hippolytus/reader likes Zagreus of all beings, is to use him and Asterius as an example. There he understands it, but he doesn't accept it.

Asterius, on the other hand, is much more chill about it and even approves of it, although he will definitely give Zagreus the shovel talk and assure him that if he does anything to the little prince, there will be no place in Elysium that is safe for him.

Like, Zagreus would be upset to have to go through Theseus to talk to his boyfriend, but he definitely takes advantage of the situation to make jokes about how Theseus is now his "father-in-law", making the Athenian king even more angry.

(Zagreus would definitely make the "your son calls me daddy too" joke.)

At the same time, Zag would be surprised at how good a father Theseus is when he is dead (and what he was like when he was alive, excluding the accident of course). Likewise, he would be happy to see that although Theseus is an idiot, he is not such a bad guy.

Zagreus definitely helps a little with the Hipolito/reader relationship when tensions are high, going into therapist mode again. and thanks to this I can see Theseus and Hippolytus/reader in the prologue making a good process towards healing.

I don't think there's any WAY IN HELL that Theseus will accept Zagreus as his son's mate, but with Asterius and Hippolytus/reader present, at least he's more...domesticated.

Hippolytus/reader: father! TELL HIM

Theseus: UHG, FINE....HELLspawn--ZAGREUS...WOULD YOU WANT TO STAY TO CELEBRATE THE VICTORY OF HIPPOLYTUS/READER?

Asterius: Do you want to stay forever?

Overall, it's a dysfunctional family, I'm not going to lie, but a happy one.

Shares, reblogs and comments are very welcome!

I've been joking about Ariadne being Hornee for Dionysus in Hades 2 but also like,,, I think she'd notice right away that he isn't doing great??? He's stressed and ignoring it and she wants to help but like they're SUCH a situation ship in a world where they didn't get married how does she approach to help?? is it even her place to help?? But no one else seems to care and she cares SO MUCH

Dionysus means the world to her. She loves him. He helped her when she was at her lowest and she desperately wants to return the favor but how is she supposed to do that as a mortal shade in a war of Titans and Gods??

This is why she's stress unwinding Theseus banners while Asterius and Icarus are side eying her while they do their own things. The Stress Radiates and like they don't know if they should ask.

The amount of love I have for these two is a bit concerning

[spineless-lobster]

Patroclus is half way inside achilles in an elysian glade and yet somehow that’s not even half as gay as whatever theseus has going on at any given moment

[championofelysium]

I like saying that Theseus fell in love with Asterius during their battle in the labyrinth, but it's a bit more complicated than that... it wasn't love right away as much as it was a sorta weird obsession. Theseus printed Athenian coinage with the image of the Minotaur on it, and wore Asterius' symbol on his chest whenever he went out. He would dream about him too... mostly of their battle, but sometimes his dreams would take them outside of the labyrinth, too. Theseus couldn't identify his own feelings about all this, but couldn't really talk about it either... no one else understood </3 no one else Could understand, because everything in that moment was just Him and Asterius... (though it got to a point where some of his wives felt as if they were in competition with a bull-man who'd died long ago at that point in time).

When Theseus rescues Asterius from Erebus it's partly out of curiosity, obligation, desire...a wish to understand himself better thru Asterius. But also it doesn't take long at all for those feelings to become entirely romantic, either- he gets crushes very, very fast.

[dwelling-in-elysium]

asterius comparing himself and theseus to enkidu and gilgamesh <333 like yeah we know you guys fuck lol
