WARNING: This story will contain spoilers for the game Hades. Including the epilogue.
Zagreus and Thanatos have been best friends for as long as they can remember. The prince of the underworld had gone through a lot of things in the past year after the discovery of his family's long drawn drama and various other problems that arose alongside it. However, the prince was not held back at all from showing affection to everyone as he always does, rebuilding the relationships that had faded away with age overtime, including his and Thanatos'. Recently after his mother Persephone returned to the underworld, he and Thanatos at last confessed their feelings to one another, leading to becoming what mortals and gods alike call it, lovers. Things are looking well, but there is something biting away at Zagreus' heart, wishing for more attention.
After Zagreus is given the task to hand out invitations for the great underworld feast that will hopefully put a temporary end to all the lies and deceptions, Thanatos begins to feel different during his work after a certain incident, leading up to him searching for Zagreus every time he goes out of the House of Hades to spread the nine invitations or do his usual escape attempts. Will Thanatos be able to express himself clearly to Zagreus? What is Zagreus' desire that he so much longs to express in some way?

In the Shadow of Hogwarts: A Hogwarts Legacy Story
What if Ominis and Sebastian had more than just friendly feelings for each other? What if the tale of the relic took a completely different turn? A tale of enduring love and the consequences of wrong choices. "His fingertips descended onto the smooth, warm skin. Lightly fluttering, they traced Sebastian's eyebrows, eyes, and nose before abruptly halting. He had touched his friend's smile before, but had never given it much thought. Now, Sebastian tilted his head back ever so slightly, and Ominis' fingers effortlessly slid to his lips. Soft, slightly moist, with a small crack from the cold, they slowly stretched upward at the corners and then retreated slightly. "Are you afraid?" Sebastian asked. "I'm afraid we'll regret this tomorrow," Ominis whispered, tracing the contours of Sebastian's lips with his fingers." ⚠️Warnings⚠️ - Fluff-to-angst narrative shift - 18+ scenes (all characters are over 16 years old) - Scenes of violence, non-consensual acts, suicides and murders - Partial canon divergence English is not my native language, so I would appreciate any feedback and corrections regarding grammar, vocabulary, and other aspects.

A love sweet like death
Thanatos The God of death, the God everyone loathes, and yet the one everyone longs for at the end, the God they cling too, seek comfort in, the God all the others forget about and yet... Olympus itself would fall without him. He's lonely... under appreciated and often stays in the dark shadows of his cave. That is... until a certain underworld princess makes his life brighter than he's ever seen before Macaria The Goddess of Blessed death, the one the dying seek in their afterlife, the one who guides them to their next step, the one comforting them as death himself slowly extracts their souls. She's sweet, kind, beautiful. And she's determined to show the God of death that he's not alone. Because in death... these two lost souls unite in a sweet solemn bond of love.
The God & The Shadow
"Jealous?" "Why would I be?" "Because I know your fantasies." He argued. I leaned closer to him, smelling his overwhelming scent. "And I'm appalled at how they are just that. Fantasies." He smiled and leaned closer, piercing through my eyes with the blue of his. I wanted to grab the dagger beneath my pillow and kill him already. "Are you now?" He answered, coming dangerously close to me. He brought his hand up to lift my chin, our noses touching. Gods, help me. I want nothing to do with this man. I really don't. He hates me, and I hate him. Our banter is not just banter; there's always a sense of truth in between, and that's what makes it all the more addicting. - THE GOD is the master of death and darkness. Lore, previously known as Hades, rarely ever visited the mortal realm. As the gods get involved in a war against the rebellious uprising amongst the dark angels, he must work together with a group of immortals, a ruthless and serpentine assassin being one of them. THE SHADOW is a half-breed. Left destitute at seven and made a killer eleven years later, she leaves destruction and death wherever she walks the mortal realm. Forced into a team unit as punishment for her insolent behavior, she must work with the god she grew to admire and learned to hate. Alliances built on lies and hatred are inevitable to fall. Who will win in this game of the gods? (Modern Retelling of the story of Hades & Persephone)Complete

Because Nothing Lasts Forever
This is a Percy Jackson fanfiction. It is a Thercy (Thanatos/Percy) story. I am just trying this out. Tell me what thou think and I'll continue it. It probably won't be as good as my other stories though. Percy is betrayed by everyone. I'm not going to go over how he was betrayed, not in the summary nor in the story. He dies but helps out Thanatos and stuff, and Hades let him go back to the mortal world for that. When Annabeth leaves him for his half brother with everyone else, he is heartbroken. But he realizes that their life was never meant to be. He realizes that he likes Thanatos, who he had met when he freed him. But he didn't tell anyone-not even those who never betrayed him. He died willingly, but now he returns. Cover by @rAnDOm-caPitAlsComplete
Pokemon Wizard - The Beginning√
What if Ash remembered his previous life as a wizard? What if he remembered he was Antioch Peverell? How would it change the Pokemon world if he had magic? Would it make things easier or harder for him to travel with potions, charms and spells to help him along the way? Also the legendaries seem interested in him because he was touched by Death themselves... And they don't like sharing. Oh dear! So much for a peaceful afterlife. Do not copy this work of fiction without permission please!!! Ahem! I got a few messages asking if there will be romance here between Ash and his friends. Let me remind you all they are barely teenagers so absolutely not! No romance. Maybe when they are older, until then just enjoy the fic and possible future ships. Yeah?Complete
