ive been. brainrotting over UDAD so. yeah. hades my beloved !!!! oh my god *them* !!! guess my favorite song on the album and how did you know it was underworld blues

pls look at this i spent too much time on them

[shitty-mechs-headcannons]

I like to headcanon that Persephone is the daughter of an Olympian (namely Demeter, an Olympian with influence over agricultural imports and food industries) and she was a rebellious young woman, causing her to run into Ashes O’Reilly, aka Hades. A very queer affair ensues.

good for her! Ashes may not treat her right but they will certainly treat her in a way that would probably make a good dark romance novel

i really don't expect to finish this so have a UDAD hades, persephone and cerberus redraw of this painting (the reluctant bride by auguste toulmouche) because the idea wouldnt leave my brain lol

[fruitisthenewvegitable]

They’re such sillies

I love all the Persephone theories floating around, but may I propose a new one?

Persephone is literally any and every Mech possible, but because only one of them can make an appearance at a time, it’s just whoever is Ashes’s favorite that week. This confuses the shit out of the rest of the Olympians, because they all play it perfectly straight. None of them ever acknowledge that they are, in fact, a different person from last week’s Persephone.

There are planning sessions where they all go over who said what to who so that they can all keep up the act. If they’re worried it’ll get overly complicated, some of them will literally be The Guy In The Chair for the current Persephone and just give each other hints and tips throughout the night via whatever the City has for earbuds. People occasionally call them on their bull, but they all deny it, and because Ashes is so powerful, no one will actually push the issue.

I strongly believe that everyone came to say hi to Ashes in UDAD when they realized they were Hades. So I can fully picture this fic where every chapter you follow one of the other mechs trying to get into Hades’s throne room, all in their own little way.

Like Brian gets in pretty easy as the Oracle of Delphi, just says he has a prophetic vision that has to do with Hades and claims he has to have an audience with them and gets escorted in. They have a bitch/gossip session, because Brian lies that it’s a private thing. Ashes uses it to annoy all the other Olympians by alluding to things just to cause shit.

Marius is counseling Zeus and the more he listens to this man complain about Hades, the more he starts to realize who Hades is. So, he starts to insist they should have a family therapy session with Hades. Ashes at first hates Zeus trying to convince them until they realize who is counseling him, then they agree and Ashes and Marius psychologically torture Zeus for an entire session.

Jonny tries to murder spree himself in, but gets stopped by Ashes’s traps. They know it’s him trying to get in, but think it’s funny and actively up their defenses to make him fail, waiting to see if he gives up. He doesn’t and at some point Ashes takes pity on him and lets him get carted off to the Acheron where they get him out off.

Tim has been getting himself a sugar baby role as Persephone and working his way into high society with the Olympians. He actually runs in the same circles as Ashes and complains how boring it is and he wants some violence, so Ashes whisks him off for a trip of fun, which gets wildly out of hand. But hey, at least they get to hang out regularly, right?

And I don’t have a plan for the others yet, but that will come (input is welcome and if someone has other ideas for the others, please do share)

[shitty-mechs-headcannons]

The city doesn't actually have keyboards for typing and music has a strong tie to mortality/power. Prometheus was a master at playing the keyboard (instrument). Ashes was able to take control of the underworld because they played music so well. They listened to Orpheus because his talent with music was a legitimate threat, but he didn't seem willing to use it for more than getting Euridice back. This is also why Heracles (very strong and threatening) didn't do anything too bad to Orpheus.

thats actually a really interesting idea, i like that a lot!!! someone write an au jhgfsjd
