cygna_hime's fault. She goes and writes Hades/Persephone fic, my muse immediately must match her. (okay, it was a drabble and mine is most emphatically not, although it is quite short).
This particular ficlet is a result of a interesting little tidbit of trivia I've been wanting to put into story form for quite a while.
Untitled Hades/Persephone ficlet
Rating: PG, implication I suppose. One curse, but what with the vocab of kids these days...
Warning: chattyafterglowy!Persephone
I opened my eyes slowly, feeling strangely satisfied. I was very comfortable, even with someone’s arm over...ooooh. Now I remember.
I settle back in to bed with a smile, thinking fondly of last night. Hades, my...well, ‘host’...informed me that Mother had made threats, and that he was going to release me tom-well, today I suppose. And, well, I had gotten rather fond of him during my stay here, and he did look so sad – still hard to believe that anyone would feel that sad about losing me, and that’s probably what did it – so I…we...
I grin. Mother would be soooo pissed at me. She’s always lecturing me on how I shouldn’t trust just anyone with my virtue, and about not being ‘pressured’ into anything – hah! – and all about how important protection –
Oh, shit.
I sit up straight in bed, panicking. Hades, his hand disturbed, made a mostly-asleep sound and reburies his head in the pillows. Of course, he doesn’t need to worry about getting pregnant or anything, and oh no I'm so screwed - three times, actually, my brain not-so-helpfully adds - and I’m in so, so much trouble...
Something red, outside my window, catches my eye, and I nearly faint with relief. It’s not too late! I dash out of bed, ignoring my nakedness and the fact that Hades will probably wake up soon, and reach out my hand...
A/N – In Ancient Greece, it was believed that eating pomegranate seeds was an effective contraceptive. And we all know how well this particular idea worked out for Persephone...
^___^ Ah, obscure mythology trivia! My one true love...er, excepting my dear, if evilly inspiring, fiancee, of course. *grins*
