I'm TIRED of the lack of content of these three togheter, SO i'm fixing that myself!
Warnings: yandere behaviors, slight stalking tendencies, isolation, overprotection, some persecution, hyper-agretion, threats of violence(not towards Reader), unhealty mindset, the three of them are yandere, so the triple the trouble. Some Fluff.
• Okay, it’s not quite like that, but honestly, reader should prepare for a WILD ride if these three together are their Yandere. But let’s start at the beginning.
• I imagine that for these three to be interested in someone romantically, it would have to be someone that ALL THREE see on a daily basis, precisely so that a connection can be generated.
• Let’s say that reader is a shade. A mortal who lived beyond the underworld, but their life ended abruptly. Now they try to enjoy the afterlife.
• Reader’s family was probably Hades worshipers, so when they died, they received pseudo-special treatment, giving them a job to do in Hades’ house.
• Probably the first one to meet reader, for obvious reasons, is Thanatos, not only because he is the one who harvests their soul, but because, as reader, them is given multiple jobs, sometimes Than has to supervise. which, while initially a pain, is a nice break from constantly going after humans.
• We all know Than is a top-notch workaholic, so he gives Reader pretty harsh corrections when he sees them doing a poor job, or scolds them if he sees them taking breaks outside of the hour.
• Reader's other Shades for having to put up with Thanatos's grumpy attitude, it's a shame to have to deal with that even in death.
• Even Than ends up overhearing Reader talking to other Shades who say the same thing, that they should ask for another position, that Thanatos clearly terrifies them, etc.
• And honestly, Than didn't think Reader was scared of him, yes, he can be intimidating, but come on, they're already in the underworld. What could be worse than that? (the man tries to pretend he's not offended).
• What's truly surprising, though, is that Reader defends Thanatos, saying that he has a good work ethic, that while he's strict he does so with good intentions, and that while he can be a bit harsh, he's a good man-god? Whatever.
• From here on, at least, Thanatos starts to treat Reader less roughly. Which leads to them meeting a certain person.
• Zag probably met Reader in passing when they were talking to Thanatos, and when he goes to greet him, Than introduces them as a new worker at the Hades house.
• We already know that Zagreus enjoys keeping a good relationship with everyone in the house (except his father), plus he's very happy that Thanatos finally has something of a friend!
• When Thanatos eventually gets back to his routine, that's when Zagreus becomes more predominant in Reader's life, wanting to befriend this new person of interest to Than.
• Zagreus is much more talkative than Thanatos, more sociable, so it is not difficult for him to approach them, even if the reader may be somewhat unaccustomed after spending so much time with Than (who barely spoke).
• Zagreus wants to know as much about Reader as possible (as long as that's okay obviously), what things are like for mortals, their customs, their tastes, things like that.
• Zagreus tells Reader all about his outings, when he goes to see his mother, the mythological figures he's met and faced, etc. He likes to see the expressions of amazement and wonder Reader has when they listens to him narrate.
• He tells Reader when he starts to develop feelings for Meg (a girl who used to be his ex-girlfriend, but they seem to be patching things up) and Than, and in general Reader is nothing but supportive, happy for all of them.
• (they even gets to learn some stories about young Than and Zag)
• It's easier to befriend Zagreus than Than. Although now that Reader has both of them as friends, things start to get a little stifling.
• Now, every time Zagreus comes back from one of his runs, he goes straight to Reader. Which wouldn't be a bad thing, if it didn't take up all of Reader's time, to the point where sometimes they neglects their daily tasks and ends up getting scolded by Nyx.
• And yes, it's not so bad to do that a couple of times, but it's almost all the time.
• And it's worse when Thanatos joins in. Out of nowhere his work ethic goes out the window and he tells Reader that “they deserve a break” and that “Nyx will understand if they takes a day off” (HE KNOWS WELL THAT SHE DOESN'T)
• Reader has tried to talk to both of them about it, but that only results in them not talking to him for a day or two, and going back to the same thing. It's a cycle.
• This got to the point where Reader tried to hide from Zagreus when he came back from his escapades, so that they wouldn't be dragged out of work. Sometimes it worked, and other times... it didn't.
• On one occasion, Reader decided to take advantage of their break to go get something to drink at the cantina in Hades' house, they needed it.
• And when they sat down, a woman approached them to make small talk. They had seen her talk to Dusa a couple of times, so they didn't care much. They really needed to vent.
• They both talked for a while, Reader telling her about this recent “mishap” with their friends, about how they felt about it, that, although they loved--LIKE them and appreciated their friendship, They didn't want to lose this position in the house, etc.
• The woman seemed to understand the situation, but in a different way than Reader did... out of nowhere they felt in danger.
• When Reader properly introduced themself (realizing that they didn't know her name), they felt their blood run cold when the woman said simply, and with a mischievous smile.
• “Megaera, but those idiots call me Meg”
• Reader excused themself and tried to go back to work normally, hell, they even went to an area of the house they wasn't even allowed to clean (the files) just because they knew it was the only safe place for those three.
• And yet, thet felt like they were drilling holes into the back of their neck, watching them tremble in fear…
• Reader accidentally ended up falling asleep in the Archives. They was lucky that a Shade woke them up before Lord Hades arrived (and even luckier that Zagreus wasn’t a morning person).
• However, that was as far as their luck went. The next few weeks were based on Zagreus, Thanatos, and Meg cornering them to “spend time together,” and now that they had one of the Furies with them, Reader didn’t even dare show displeasure, too scared of what would happen if they refused.
• Now, to be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that they were practically forcing Reader into these dates, they would be genuinely enjoyable interactions. Things like seeing Zagreus fight Theseus in the Colosseum, or fighting Meg, the Matches with Thanatos, the different parts of the underworld besides Tartarus…
• Zagreus was sweet, trying to make them feel comfortable and happy (as much as he could at least), bringing them nice things he found on his escapes (some weren't even bought, they were things he found that reminded him of them) and he was the most openly affectionate. In any other circumstance, they would feel safe with him.
• Thanatos was more about actions than words, giving simple gifts that said a lot, stepping in when Zag and Meg were going overboard, being the most aware and considerate of all. Even if it was a little scary knowing he was involved in all this.
• Meg was hard to read at first, she seemed so rough and strong that reader was initially convinced that she had probably only joined this mess for Zag and Than, hoping to find, perhaps, an ally in her.
• What they didn't take into account was that Meg had her own kind of fascination for them, a more passionate, more primitive, more violent one. It was like a predator's interest in its prey, always looking at it with curious and intense eyes.
• This goes on for several days, with a strange forced relationship with the three, with reader praying that they'll get tired of them soon so that they can go on with the rest of their afterlife in peace.
• They had taken the job so they wouldn't go crazy with nothing to do in the afterlife, but this is the closest thing to it.
• Still, reader tried to carry on as best they could, until Nyx asked them one day, out of the blue, to clean Zagreus' room.
• They knew, they knew that if they entered that room they would devour them alive, they would force them to choose that life.
• Reader tried to negotiate with Nyx in vain, telling them that either they did what she told them, or they could leave Hades' house.
• And Reader only did what their body had been begging them for months.
• they ran straight to the exit of the house, even bumping into some Shades on their way, it doesn't matter, they had to get out of there.
• They didn't even notice that Nyx was shouting something when they went through the door.
• Not to them, but to Zagreus, Thanatos and Megaera.
• The chase was short, after all, Zagreus knew the whole underworld like the back of his hand, it didn't take him two minutes to have Reader over his shoulder, and later. In his room.
• It was something simple, they would accept the three of them, they wouldn't have to work again, they wouldn't lose their position in the house of Hades, they would have every need met, but most importantly, they would only have eyes for them.
• If we go to the “relationship” itself, it's fucking chaotic.
• Dealing with the three of them separately is already a mess, but together? Good luck having time alone now.
• Zag, Than and Meg sleep with Reader in the middle (Than and Meg on the sides, Zag hugging them), it's lovingly suffocating, and there's no way to get out without one of them noticing and following Reader like a hawk (they sometimes think they're stealthy and don't realize they're being followed. How cute).
• As compensation for losing their jobs, the three of them try to give Reader hobbies and activities to do in his free time, Than usually brings books, Meg takes them out for walks with Dusa and they talk about the latest gossip, Zag remodels their bedrooms a bit so they have space to do things like painting, writing, whatever they want!
• There are days when Reader can leave the bedrooms, there are other days when they can’t, and they has to stay there until one of their “lovers” comes (meanwhile, sometimes Skelly chats them up and tries to cheer them up – this is better than being in Tartarus! right?)
• Among them they also want to improve the relationship that Reader has with each one, as I said, Zagreus likes to tell about the times when Thanatos has helped him get out of the underworld, his misadventures when they were young, etc. She also likes to brag about Meg, how despite everything that happened with her sisters she is still a woman of unbreakable character, how strong she is, etc.
• Meg is brutally honest, she tells the reader that Zagreus can sometimes seem a bit arrogant, but that he definitely loves them with all his heart, and that he only has to ask him and he will do everything to make them happy. Than is a grumpy god, yes, but he is loyal, loyal to his family, loyal to his principles, and now loyal to them, and that you should not doubt that he will do everything possible to keep them safe.
• Than, as we know, is more about actions than words, but he tries to improve that to benefit his partners. He tells the reader how the relationship between the three began, how things were with Zagreus before they arrived, and how they improved afterwards. Let them improve their lives as you improved ours, he says.
• It's a conflicting situation for the reader, on the one hand, they doesn't hate any of them, in fact, in many ways, they likes them, but at the same time they's so terrified of the consequences of upsetting two gods and an Eriny, that sometimes that affection is overshadowed by paranoia.
• Than, Zag and Meg know they make a strong impression, they know they shouldn't have done what they did, but worry (and jealousy) was eating them alive, it's better this way, so they can take better care of them.
• At least they try to appease their new lover's paranoia, going on more everyday and simple dates, giving them reassuring talks, assuring them that they not only see them as an equal, but that they won't do anything to them if they wants to give constructive criticism to improve their relationship (and therefore, make them happier in the their new life!), etc.
• They are overprotective, but they are aware of what they do.
• Because of this, they are also good at showing their friendlier side to the reader, and leaving their bloodthirsty side for all the people who kept them away from them for so long. Maybe breaking a couple of legs, a few cuts with the whip or the sword, letting them die by bleeding or by the scythe, whichever comes first.
• At least they have the decency to keep that side hidden from their lover's sight, they can't let them see that now, not when they is finally accepting them back.
• A charming, terrifying and intoxicating Polyamory.
