a little moment of connection between Demeter and Tantomile
Petra Ilse Dam's Tantomile seems to understand Demeter very well—among other things, she picks up immediately on her unease about fake Deuteronomy, and reacts with aggression towards him.
(alternatively: Demeter realising she has no chance at getting between Coricopat and Tantomile and their twinsync.)
Jo Lucy Rackham covering Demeter, and Rhys Batten as Coricopat.
Vienna revival, 24/06/2022, filmed by @cryptidvoidwritings and @falasta.
(And if you're looking for that other ship in the background, it's giffed over here.)

ok so bianca lives au!
the stress of being inside talos causes bianca to accidentally shadow travel (which explains the lack of a body)
talos is defeated, just to clarify
the quest continues on, zoe dies, and percy gets back to camp and tells nico bianca is dead
nico in this version denies it because he can feel that she isn't, but the rest of that interaction follows canon
so meanwhile bianca is in the underworld and when she figures out how to control her shadow travel she gets back to camp the day after nico leaves
unfortunately she can't do much to help find him, but she does search while also rejoining the hunters
eventually she realizes he's in the underworld, but minos leads him away before she can get there
after that it's a game of cat and mouse
nico has been convinced that he's wrong and she's dead because that serves minos' goals better
so she tries to find them, minos keeps moving away, this goes throughout the labyrinth
at the same time annabeth, percy, grover, and tyson are on their quest and have been told to keep an eye out
they see nico at the ranch and try to tell him, but he refuses to listen
after percy kills geryon, annabeth manages to send an iris message
bianca shows up, there's the reunion/explanation, nico hates percy less, and since now he has a whole reason to not trust minos, he sends minos away.
nico doesn't want to go back to camp atm, so he stays at the ranch and bianca sticks around too
then the quest continues, calypso's island happens, annabeth and percy go back in with rachel's help, etc.
bianca shows up and helps them in daedalus' workshop (nico didn't have enough control to properly return minos to the underworld so he ended up sticking with some chthonic kids from the ta)
they escape, go to camp, where nico and that immortal ares kid who's name i don't remember join them, as do the hunters
so castor doesn't die
lee still does because reasons
tlo goes more or less the same except more powerful demigods = less deaths
also hades favors bianca so she stays in the underworld freeing up nico to assist the others
plus bianca and hades, demeter, and persephone show up earlier
alabaster will probably work his way into this b/c i love him
and he is a chthonic kid so maybe...
so there you have it! bianca di angelo lives. she's also scary.

I’ve been working on a retelling of Abduction of Persephone and there are things I might add here:
This might be a black comedy work (inspirations taken from The Good Place and other American/British comedy shows)
Persephone isn’t the “Goddess of Spring” but called and praised as one
Kore is Perse’s nickname
Hades’ design is based on Jemaine Clement (I kept imagining that)
Hades is sort of an antagonist in my retelling (he’s the main antagonist at first then became a supporting character)
Persephone wears in blue green motifs in the mortal realm
Perse wasn’t aware that she’s Zeus’ daughter until she and Hades had an argument about marriage
Perse and Hades’ relationship resembled Eleanor and Michael’s from The Good Place (their role are similar to architect but Hades focused a bit on parties and sometimes punishing)
Demeter isn’t an overbearing/overprotective mother but a cool mom to Perse and Dionysus (Perse and Dio are twins and they’re both Zeus’ kids)
Perse and Dem have no knowledge of Perse being married off to Hades (Dem was in the mortal realm when the arrangement happens)

Nionbaster AU, in which Nico and Alabaster are mortal lovers, and Aeon, a god. Aeon falls for and courts Nico, who refuses since he already has Alabaster. Aeon respects this and steps away, but he can't help watching over his mortal. Which is how he was there when Nico, badly bruised, injured and bleeding, slowly succumbed to his wounds, on the brink of death. Aeon makes the impulsive decision of making him immortal, which upsets Nico at first because he's under the impression that Aeon separated him from his mortal lover. However, Aeon pointed out that he was to be separated from Alabaster, regardless, and that in him being made immortal, he could still be with Alabaster. (Plus he couldn't bear to watch his mortal die) Aeon offered for him to become his consort, to which he agrees because he feels indebted to him, but under the condition that he was allowed to be with Alabaster. Which is how Nico ends up spending six months in the mortal plane, six months in the immortal plane. Eventually, he falls for Aeon as well while having feelings for Alabaster, and when Alabaster neared the end of his life, Nico offered him immortality as well in the same way Aeon saved him before.

Okay after that comic I tagged you in yesterday. I can't stop thinking of Hades using a crow to see through it's eyes and check on Persephone. And her noticing his energy in it and just smiling and sitting in front of it doing what she was. Then kissing the crows little head to let him know she knew before slipping away in to the woods. And you cut to Hades literally just a happy giddy little puddle of joy in the underworld 😂. Though who could blame him knowing his has the heart of such a beautiful and powerful creature all to himself 😌.
Lmaooo this is cute af!! Oh Hades being his romantic self xD and agreed, the joy she brings him is unparalleled ~
and of course she'd know, she'd sense his energy anywhere - those rascals are just one being split into two c:
i think that's one of the reasons why i love them so much - as different as they may be, they also are very much alike; their views and priorities and that fire within is the same.... they are equals through and through.

ronan harris hadn't taken himself into the public to practice his powers ever. his surveying and reporting was always done in a secluded area or in the midst of night, measuring and analyzing how much stronger his abilities grew or how much he can handle before becoming fatigued.
this time, the man decided to finally show his face to the training pit in his workout clothes, a two-toned compressed shirt hugging his frame with joggers that hardly kept anything to the imagination.
he knew he could always manipulate it but instead, ronan focused on the nearby flowers as he attempted to pluck the petals of its contents attempting to summon the liquid to his fingertips.
at a pinch, he needed to be able to use anything available to succeed.

Demeter: Yes, I'm brave. I fought with Macavity. I'm with Bombalurina. I'm doing patrols. But I'm not brave enough to part them.
She points on Mistoffelees and Rum Tum Tugger, shouting at each other.

And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known...
I might mention... Mungojerrie?
I might mention.. Griddlebone.
Are nothing more than agents for the cat who, all the time, just controls the operation...
This is your daily reminder to caress your wife's hindquarters when discussing your various crushes.
Jo Lucy Rackham covering Demeter and Birgit Arquin as Bombalurina. (All the background girls are first cast, except Denise Jastraunig covering Jennyand allowing for the fact that Anastasia Bertinshaw had taken over the role of Jemima by this point in the run.)

@rosewaterdrunk
demeter really did understand bowie’s protectiveness , it was admirable that she would want to protect her father. ‘ i understand , how do you suggest i earn your trust? ‘ demeter asked , since she knew bowie was important to enzo and wanted more than anything to be close with the young women. family was something that was very important to her and the goddess would do anything to make sure that it stayed that way. ‘ your father is a very loved man , i wouldnt think of aggravating the people around him. ‘
Bowie takes a moment to press her lips together in thought as she narrows her eyes at the other. “It takes a lot to earn my trust, and however long you might guess it took for me to trust my dad, I can guarantee that it took longer, but a promise of not hurting him is a start.” Hearing the last words, she nods her head in response and smiles a little. “That’s good to know.”

into the woods/cats AU because it turns out i'm VERY impatient and honestly can't wait for when i see the show next week so i'm making the list of characters now lmao:
The Baker: Tugger
The Baker's Wife: Bombalurina
Cinderella: Demeter
Red Riding Hood: Jemima
Jack: Pouncival
Jack's Mother: Jellylorum
The Witch: Grizabella
C's Prince/The Wolf: Macavity
Mysterious Man: Old Deuteronomy
Red's Grandmother: Jennyanydots
Rapunzel: Victoria
C's Father: Bustopher
C's Stepmother: Griddlebone
Lucinda: Electra
Florinda: Etcetera
R's Prince: Plato
the biggest change to this AU will be that Victoria's ending will be the same as movie!Rapunzel's ending, because her musical!ending is just way too sad
also all of the familial/romantic relationships in this AU will be the same as in "Into the Woods" canon (but they obviously don't carry over into my regular canon)
@storyweaverofgondor here's the au bestie <3
