"I think you're forgetting one important detail that everyone knows about Hades, Princess."
"What?" Clarke seemed confused, and Bellamy feels obligated to tell her, despite the argument sure to follow.
"Persephone. Hades...he always has his own princess with him."
Clarke shot him a disbelieving look, "And somehow, that's me?"
Bellamy gave a low chuckle, "I'm not the one who said it, Clarke."
 
After the fallout of killing everyone in Mount Weather, Bellamy and Clarke realize that the blood on their ledger is greater than imagined, and even together, closure and forgiveness seems hard to see in the future. But, after Bellamy inadvertently offers himself up to become the new 'Hades' or Lord of the Underworld- a job unoccupied since the nuclear war on earth- he begins to see familiar faces that is now his problem on finding a way across the to paradise. When Bellamy realizes he's begun to fall into the shoes of a favorite mythical god, he starts to put together the one thing that's missing from his own version of the myth; a Persephone, and Clark has an awful lot of things to work out in the underworld too. 'Modern' Persephone/Hades.
