One common theme is the power dynamics between Hades and Persephone. Since Hades is a powerful god and Persephone is often seen as more innocent and new to the world of the gods, their relationship is full of negotiations of power.
One idea could be exploring their first meeting from a different perspective. Maybe Hades was initially more hesitant or Persephone was more curious than in the original. Another could be a story where they face a new threat to their relationship, like a jealous god trying to break them apart. A third idea is to write about their daily life in the Underworld, showing how they interact with the various creatures there.
One great piece of fanfiction is 'A Different Path' which explores what would happen if Persephone made different choices early on. It has really vivid descriptions of the Underworld and the relationship between Hades and Persephone.
Hermes is a great secondary character. His quick - witted nature and ability to travel between realms can add a lot of action and humor to the story. Thanatos is also interesting. His relationship with Hades and his views on death can bring depth to the fanfiction. And of course, Demeter, Persephone's mother. Her over - protectiveness and conflict with Hades can create a lot of drama.
One interesting interpretation could be that the kidnapping is not as malicious as it seems in the original myths. Maybe Hades is desperate to have Persephone in his realm because he truly loves her and sees no other way to be with her. He might be trying to show her a world she's never known before, a world that has its own beauty beneath the surface.
They would become closer. The shared experience of expecting a child would strengthen their bond. Hades would be more protective of Persephone, and Persephone would rely on Hades more for emotional support.
In many fanfictions about Persephone flirting with Hades, it often shows a different side of their relationship. It could be a way to explore their personalities more deeply. For example, Persephone might use her charm and wits to engage Hades, which could be a contrast to the more traditional portrayals of their relationship. This kind of flirting can also add a sense of playfulness and modernity to the ancient mythological story.
Well, one way to re - imagine their relationship is to make it more of a partnership. In the original myths, Persephone is often seen as a victim of Hades' abduction. But in fanfiction, we could see them as two powerful deities who came together by choice. They could be equal partners in ruling the Underworld, with Hades respecting Persephone's opinions and decisions more.
Well, you could write a fanfiction where the power dynamics in Olympus are completely different. Maybe the mortals have more power over the gods for a change. Or you could write about a character's journey to find their true self outside of their given role in Lore Olympus. For instance, a character who is always seen as a villain trying to prove they can be good. Also, a time - travel based fanfiction where a character goes back in time to change a crucial event in Lore Olympus history would be really interesting.
