Mun is worried about AU

[unexpected_death]

Mun, babe, chill.
I'm sure people will love little old me and if they don't, who cares?
You can always switch back to the real canon and let this little thing die.

... Whoa. Well, I think your AU's interesting. Care to tell me more?

[unexpected_death]

Sure if you want babe.
Basically all the greek gods are aliens chosen to create a new universe.

[perceptive_purple]

... Alright! I am now officially amazed! A new universe?!

How well do you get along with the others, though?

[unexpected_death]

We're not a perfect happy team but we all managed to ascend to godhood and keep ourselves from killing each other before then.

[perceptive_purple]

Well, that seems reasonable. ... I suppose.

How do you go about creating a new universe, though?

[unexpected_death]

It involves genetically engineering a frog if you can believe that.

[perceptive_purple]

... Wh-what?

[unexpected_death]

The entire universe is nothing more than a massive frog made by the soon-to-be gods.

[perceptive_purple]

I... I see! Well, that's... creative. I guess. Though I suppose it would take a lot of work to do all that.

And your role in the entire thing is...?

[unexpected_death]

My title during the whole thing was "The Prince of Doom" I guess it was a pretty accurate title since I was the first one of us to die.

[perceptive_purple]

Wh-what?! B-but... you are death! You don't... die...

[unexpected_death]

To become a god in our case, you have to die first.
But you have to die in a certain place or you're done for good.

[perceptive_purple]

S-so they're really all dead...? I... I see...

D-do you have any memory of the person you used to be before you died?

Some details may change as I fiddle with things.

[unexpected_death]

In a sense but we came back pretty quickly.

Yeah we're the same people we were before we died. It was more a physical transformation than anything. We got these goofy looking hoods and then we could suddenly do some amazing things.

My first job was to take care of an entire universe full of dead things. Give them a temporary home before the new universe was made.

[perceptive_purple]

... Y-you're not going to make a universe full of dead people, are you?

... I mean, I like the dead. A lot. It's just that a lot of them are better off where they are.

[unexpected_death]

Of course not.
But with the entire universe destroyed there were a lot of dead souls that needed a place to rest so it was sort of a training mission for me how to be the wonderful god of the dead you know today.

[perceptive_purple]

I... I see... It all sounds a little unsettling, but... I also believe you know what you're doing. I hope. So I won't complain.

J-just... be safe, and don't get in trouble, Hades.

[unexpected_death]

Well the underworld had to get started somehow.

By the way, what's your name babe?

[perceptive_purple]

I'm Persephone. Goddess of spring, and the transformation from death to new life.

[unexpected_death]

[Excuse him while his jaw hits the ground.]

[perceptive_purple]

I'm... also technically the wife of Hades and Queen of the Underworld. But, you can have the whole place to yourself, really. It's my main source of inspiration, but it's not like I need to rule it or anything.

[unexpected_death]

Yeah I kind of got who you were with your name.
I just didn't expect to meet you here.

[perceptive_purple]

Y-you mean there's a Persephone in your world of origin?

... I'm nothing like her, am I.

[unexpected_death]

No, our seer told me about her. She hasn't even been born yet in my world.

[Oh great she looked sad, so now he would slide over and put his hands on her shoulders.]

Hey hey hey.
You don't have to be like anybody.
You just have to be you and you'll dazzle them more that way.

[perceptive_purple]

[Her eyes go wide open at that.]

Whoa, that's... the exact same advice I usually give my friends. How ironic...

[Finally, she smiles, placing one of her hands over Hades'.]

Thank you, Hades. I'm not really the sort who has self-esteem issues, but I do want my theoretical husband to be happy with me.
