[Love at first sight isn't a concept Raven likes hearing about. Never was. When she fell for Finn it had happened slowly, over the years, and then all at once and with this idea of forever in her mind because it had felt right. Love at first sight is the sort of stupidity that ends years of solid relationship in ten days, the sort that leaves one person thinking what she didn't have that the other one did, and why --

Fuck love at first sight, basically.

She sits down on the small two-seat couch with her coffee and just lets him go on with the story. Those are a lot of names, but she can handle rocket science; what are a few names anyway? She wonders if it mattered what Persephone thought of the whole marriage, or if it was just one of those things Hades decided he was entitled to as a big guy. Or if it mattered at all that Persephone had to switch homes every six months to keep Hades happy and her mom happy. Or if it mattered at all what she wanted, when every fucking god in the universe was giving her orders.]


She doesn't sound like it. [She shrugs,] Demeter wants Persephone back so Persephone goes back. Helios approves of the marriage, not that Persephone asked for his opinion. Rhea gave Persephone orders, not that it matter. And dickhead Hades keeps her starved on his domain for a whole year and then tricks her into having to stay by offering her food that keeps her there? Fuck the harvest, did anyone ask Persephone what she wanted, in these stories?
