[ He thinks that some mortals must imagine that Ares takes the shape of a barbarian; bloody, fanged, mindless. Maybe they'd be surprised that he would bow his head and instead be respectful and put-together. So completely different from his fellow Olympians in ways both alienating and intriguing.
Whatever everyone else thinks, Thanatos just knows this: Ares is decent to him, and apologizes easily for a god. He respects Mother Nyx. They aren't exactly friends, but Thanatos still waves his words off, responding in his own, soft-spoken way. ]

[ At least Chthonic gods aren't as well-known for holding grudges. ]
Besides, you aren't the only one who's unhappy with what's happening. [ He sighs, letting his irritation slip through. ] I had to fight off a so-called reaper with a scythe earlier. And now I'm left to find a place called Stygia, without finding hide nor hair of Lord Hades and the rest. [ His mother. Hypnos. ...Zagreus. ]
Have you lost touch with the rest of your pantheon?
