Summary
To the mortals, he's known as Hades, but only L's queen Persephone knows his true name. She must return to the human world every six months, leaving L bored in the Underworld, craving someone to talk to. Knowing Demeter would never approve of him being in the over-world, L disguises himself as a mortal to get away from the grey of his realm.
Light is a mortal from a poorer family, but he has high ambitions, visions of grandeur and an insatiable thirst for knowledge. When he meets L, he wants to know everything, be the god's pupil and scholar. L accepts and a new friendship blossoms... but the deeper Light gets into the gods' lives, the more he wants to be part of it. No. Not just part of it. He wants to BE Hades... and no one, not L or even Light himself realizes JUST how ambitious he is.

The Judgement of Persephone by Artemysia93
Fandoms: Ancient Greek Religion & Lore, Ancient Roman Religion & Lore, Ancient Egyptian Religion, Original Work
25 Jan 2020
Tags
Summary
Born in the 90s, university student, short and with lots of human friends: Persephone really has a very bad 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 believes.
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 to understand Persephone's passion for law subjects, as well as the only one who seems as uncomfortable among the other deities as much as her. How couldn't they get along?
The two 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, between fairness and rigor, between life and death, this is the (semi)modern reinterpretation of a myth that has never stopped being told.

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
Shouto drops to his knees on the hard, rocky ground, spitting blood. It sizzles and evaporates — it’s impossible for any moisture to stay liquid for long in Asphodel with the waves of heat emanating from the ever-present river of lava.
He coughs again, and more blood spatters the ground. A collapsed lung, maybe. Whatever. He pushes to his feet and kicks at the giant hydra skull, the only thing that remains of the many-headed monster that has prevented him from achieving his goal all this time.
Until now. That fucking hydra is finally dead, and he's closer than ever before to escaping this literal hellhole and getting out from under his father's thumb at last.
And— and finding out what really happened to his mother.
