U   :   UNREQUITED. › for thanatos!

Valentine Alphabet! // Always Accepting! (even if its not valentines day anymore)

U   :   UNREQUITED.   has your muse had their heart broken?

Thanatos has. ━ and Zagreus, and his never-ending escapes, are not the first to do so and they will likely not be the last. ━━━ Though, perhaps Zagreus is only the most romantic of them, in the way its in the writing but you don't necessarily need to read it. Death is a romantic concept, and because all Gods ━ and all lovers ━ require a heart, he has suffered the consequences of that ruling. so while Thanatos is a concept given hands, a personification rather than a God for Gods die and cannot birth death when they too are marked by it, humanity was unkind enough to love him, loathe him, send him back.

There are many different ways in which Thanatos has had his heart broken, but the most direct in the theme of romance or relationships in general is Zagreus, the prince of the Underworld. Thanatos and Zagreus, in-game, are subjectively implied to have some kind of romantic feelings for each-other or at the very least were very close. Thanatos works for Hades, bringing death as one expects of the personification of Death, which is why it becomes a problem when Zagreus decides he wants to leave the Underworld, regardless of consequences. ━ Nothing and no one leaves the Underworld, and it is Thanatos' job to ensure this.

The lawbook fact no one leaves, however, is violently overshadowed by the fact Zagreus seemingly carelessly ━ spurred on by a letter found from his father's desk of his real mother and an argument where Hades fired Zagreus from his work after many slip-ups and Hades rarely having a glimpse of patience for the boy ━ throws his life in the Underworld away alongside everyone who loved and cared about him to endlessly pursue a goal which for all intents and purposes is intended to be impossible, and still, he tries. again and again and again as those he loved turns against him to push him down as he tries to claw tooth and nail out.

And Thanatos is one of them. And he loves him. And Zagreus won't stay. Zagreus doesn't want to stay, which is simply to say ; Zagreus doesn't want him. Thanatos knows it's not that simple and he knows he cannot simply ask someone to remain eternally unhappy to simply be with someone, if he does not want to remain here ━ an abusive father endlessly biting at him, where things never change and never get better but never get worse, where he is loved but it is stagnant and unbearable and full of lies ━ Thanatos cannot make him. He does not want to make him. But he is gone and going, left and leaving, and Thanatos understands the agony of absence, even for one who so often inflicts it. He is pained, this is torture, a heart that can't stop breaking because Zagreus can't leave so it just goes on like this

... But Thanatos loves him.

Thanatos loves him more than it hurts, more than he wants to be bitter, more than he wants to be angry, so he helps him. He offers his aid in the subtle ways he can, rewards in turn for competition, providing a companion in combat if only once, and he risks his job to help Zagreus. Because he loves him so much that he wants him to be happy. Because he loves him so much that he wants him to be happy, even if he is happy without him.

He looks in the face of absence and answers with ❛ I know. It's okay. You can go. I love you. You can go. ❜ Thanatos is poisonous in-game, not as simple as venom, it is toxic and salt in wounds and citrus lining nerves like electricity. he is bitter to the point of making you wince, sharp to the point of cutting you, you, not Zagreus. He makes you guilty, but it isn't because he doesn't want you to go. Of course, he doesn't. He doesn't want Zagreus to leave. but he loves him, so he helps him, goes against the rules for him, goes against everything for him, just to give him a chance in what should be ━ what might be ━ impossible, because he wants Zagreus to be happy more than he wants Zagreus to stay and more than he wants Zagreus to love him. He makes you guilty because his bitterness is because he loves you and you're leaving and its for the best. Because you love him and you're leaving and its for the best. Because Zagreus will, eventually, reach the surface. To you, the player, the game exists to be possible, so one day, eventually, you are going to fight up after getting beaten down enough times and persist & persist & persist and you will make it. And you don't know what happens next. You don't know, so there's nothing after. Zagreus will, one day, reach the surface. And you don't get to say goodbye Except in the long process of Zagreus packing his bags and pulling himself out And the long silence that comes after.

@tenebriism // yusuke & akechi!

the contact was something unfamiliar with him.

perhaps that is why he was so insistent on saying something, even when a sluggishness unable to be hidden in precise carnelian eyes, dexterity faltering in what is often used by such precise hands, a darkness discoloring the undersides of skin like cheap, shiny decoration — paint applied with a sensitivity often lost on Akechi, but one that was not so easily when it applied to the flesh; attention unending, monitoring, almost clinical.

perhaps it was that then, the unexpected from someone he has learned what to expect from, that championed him onwards like a curse he was bound to — eternally, Akechi was cursed, or at least that's often how he thought he was. how strange it was, for that moment of pinpoint notice, the contact an unfamiliar heavy pressure 'pon his shoulder, then; clumsy compared to the specific phrasing Akechi was talented in puppeting to prompt it, more natural than he ever was; its removal & its explanation. — if Yusuke had explained it sooner, Akechi hadn't been listening.

Initially, Akechi does not understand ; a thing he hates. he bites back the part of him that, impulsive, hears the reason & motive and calls Yusuke foolish. Uncomprehending, a white-hot moment of unwillingness to try met with the unkillable part of Akechi that denies the mocking, as if he is better than Yusuke, his eternal knowing he is not ; before he sets himself upon the task of seeing it through the lens of something he better understands. critical eyes scanning the lines, the progression, nipping at the edges of strokes of graphite or ink in his effort to understand why this mattered, why this was worth it.

Akechi is leaned forward, the worn booth of Cafe LeBlanc shifting as if moving to follow Akechi's lead hovering above his shoulder in one of the fewest times Yusuke is harbored within it's walls, as he shifts closer to examine. the same one might examine wounds, understanding the hands that made them, understanding what they were at all. ( Akechi struggled with the concept that Yusuke, or anyone at all, and himself were at all alike, however to say they were not similar in such a manner as this would be untrue. Goro's attention artistic in of itself, in the intensity his eyes always have. perhaps that is why Yusuke liked him. maybe Yusuke didn't like him at all. )

a perfectly trimmed finger-nail nips at the barest edge of a line at the bottom of the page, not tearing at the medium used to apply it, but rather only a pressure to it; as if by sinking his claws in, he could know it. — know it better.

"that is…" intrigue begins to strike him, rattling up into his nerves. his nail indents deeper into the fiber of the paper, never breaking through, only pushing it down. he understands it in the way detectives understand evidence, the way Akechi understands everything, the way he has to. "interesting."

he reels himself in, realizing that for all his intrigues, he is still expected to be the reasonable one. Yusuke was eccentric, blindingly intelligent in the ways Akechi took time to fully know just beneath the surface, but depravation and exhaustion were just the same regardless. human things, unhealthy in their intentional pursuit. what kind of friend would he be if he allowed this to persist? ( not friends. never friends. the way he always hesitates. ) — how hypocritical of him.

"By all means." a hand waved, eyes glancing to Yusuke's in his familiarity with the request before finding themselves back at the page "How long have you been conscious, Yusuke-san? However in-depth, and fascinating this study is, your health is a vital priority."

don't look at him like that he's just a little guy would you judge a little guy on his birthday ( it is not his birthday )

I don't want this feeling to be love anymore, I want it to be a secret between you and me
