Summary
No matter how thin the soul was spread it was still the same soul. Even if it was fractured Emet-Selch could not deny who this was. The one he loved the most, who had seen him at his best and worst times, who chose to be bound to him through union was alive after so many long years.
Persephone was here but had forgotten the past but in time Hades was sure she would remember. After all he would help her retain that which she lost.

Summary
“So,” Yuuri interrupted, awkwardly. “Sorry again, for intruding. We should be on our way, so if you could let me down, that’d be great.”
Viktor looked up at him, then his face broke into a smile. “Hmmm,” he said, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. Then, he decided, “Nah.”
Yuuri blinked. Viktor had gone back to rubbing Vicchan’s belly, offering him pats and scratches and not even looking back up at Yuuri.
“What?” Yuuri asked, confused. Maybe all the blood had rushed to his head, but he was pretty sure Viktor had just said "no" to the King of the Underworld.
“No,” Viktor said, cheerfully, not even bothering to look up at this point. “I’m kidnapping you. Who’s a good doggie? Yes, you are, Vicchan!”
***
In which Viktor kidnaps the Lord of the Dead and imprisons him in his garden, and Yuuri is just too awkward to leave.

Summary
"Let. Me. Go." She gasped out. She felt him caress her hair and felt it flow through his fingers.
"I can't."
"Why?"
"Because...I need you." And with that, she felt a wave of dark power flow through her, and a dark murmur of "Sleep, goddess" before she felt herself go limp and everything went black.
Plagued daily by rage and bitterness over being chosen to rule the Underworld, Kylo Ren believes he has very little to live for. That is, until the day he travels to Olympus and meets....her.
This fic is a Hades/Persephone AU where I play around slightly with genders and relationships between gods/goddesses. I am not into incest, so I have tried to make it so that none of the characters who have relationships are related too closely.

Summary
Aoi doesn’t like tending to the fields or preparing for harvest like his mother, Ceres. One day, he finds shelter in a cave, and stumbles upon the library of the Underworld, where he begins an unlikely friendship with the unfeeling Uruha.
Inspired by the myth of Persephone and Hades. The actual myth is a lot more problematic, but in this case both are willing and consenting parties; this won’t be too accurate to the original story anyway, so yeah.
Written for the DW community vkyaoi’s May challenge, Inspired by Mythology & Lore.

Never, in her whole entire immortal life did she ever think she would end up describing Death as beautiful.
Hades x Persephone inspired Seulrene AU. Without the kidnapping. Also, does not follow strict ancient Greek mythology, and many other myths will be included as well.

Summary
After being discharged from the army, Ben Solo returns to the city a little quieter, a little softer, and with a newfound appreciation for the little things, and life itself. And what better way to appreciate life than to open a flower shop, a place where new life is found every day?
He has a few repeat customers. There's Rose, who loves to take home the flowers that need a little more care, the ones that have the not-so-straight stems. There's Poe, who comes in for fresh flowers for his restaurant. There's Finn, a nurse at the nearby hospital who loves bonsai trees.
And then there's her.
A Hades/Persephone AU where Rey is Hades, and Ben is Persephone, because as much as I love the ones where Kylo is Hades and Rey is Persephone, you gotta switch it up sometimes, you know? -

Summary
What happens when you combine the magical world of Harry Potter and Greek Mythology? You get witches and wizards who fulfill the roles of gods and goddesses and straddle the Wizarding and Immortal or mythical realms. The plot begins during the summer between "Half-Blood Prince" and "Deathly Hallows."
'Lost in her thoughts, she didn't notice the rustle of wind behind her and the shiver that ran down her spine until someone grabbed her. The coldness of the hands made her think of a dementor, but Hermione couldn't think much more about that as her stomach dropped and she realized she was flying on a broom. Her eyes were closed, too afraid to look to see how high she was.
“Scared, Granger?” a deep voice growled in her ear. It was familiar, but in the gravity of the situation, she couldn’t place it.
Daringly, she opened her eyes, enough to glimpse where she was being taken, a strong arm secured around her waist. Her world went black as she saw they were headed straight for the ground.'

Summary
Trying to help the Hong Kong Police Department catch the resurrected Donaka Mark, I become employed at Security System Alliance only to find myself indeed gaining the interest of my target. For Donaka is a man attracted to innocence, and the urge to corrupt it, and he can easily sense this in me.
However, when Donaka reveals that he was wise to my deception all along, the man imprisons me in a room he has prepared long ago in advance for an experiment he has always desired to test. For if an innocent man can be tempted to sell his soul for survival, will a virgin, likewise, be willing to offer her body for the chance to live and be set free again after she has given in?
Donaka believes he no longer needs to only theorize having found the perfect test subject: Me. Now his seduction attempts and cruelty truly come to the forefront in our game of cat and mouse.
But as the weeks progress and I continue to refuse him to his mounting frustration, I begin to wonder how much longer I can hold on to my ideals and innocence. For to my horror, my body longs to surrender to my captor and I no longer know if I can resist losing my soul to Donaka Mark when I have already lost my heart.

Summary
Born in the 90s, university student, short and with lots of human friends: Persephone really has a terrible divine curriculum. Mortals don't worship her, Gods don't invite her to their mundane events, and all in all it would be fine for her. Or at least this is what she thinks.
Everything changes when at a conference she meets Hades, God of the dead. His too is a heavy baggage: three hundred thousand years of age, seven feet tall, at least twenty titles on his name. But he's also the only one understaning Persephone's passion for law subjects, as well as the only one who seems uncomfortable among the other deities as much as her. How couldn't they get along?
They find themselves intertwining their destinies and working together to issue a controversial judgement, collaborating in a trial of souls in the court of the Underworld. And so, halfway between irony and seriousness, fairness and rigor, life and death, this is the (semi) modern reinterpretation of a myth that has never stopped being told.
