[Greek Mythology] The Abyss Lord's Daily Life as a Drama Queen

Couple: Tartarus, God of the Abyss x Chaos, God of Chaos (in female form)

As the God of the Abyss, Tartarus was unquestionably a winner at life as a god.

First, he was a primordial god. In theory, only his elder sister Gaia outranked him.

Second, he was the strongest god. Even the three rulers of the realms together couldn't beat him.

Third, he married the most beautiful goddess. They were deeply in love, harmonious as music, and widely regarded as the most devoted couple around.

That was until he discovered that his wife, the goddess of love and beauty, was his creator, the source of all the gods: the God of Chaos said to slumber beyond the world.

Tartarus: The hand holding my cigarette is trembling.jpg

Chaos: What, do you want a divorce?

Tartarus: Impossible.

#I married my wife through my own efforts, so why would I give her up#

Though his wife occasionally dragged him into taking on a secret identity, leading all the gods to gossip that the goddess of love and beauty had fallen for the young and handsome plant god, and that the image of the oldest model couple had shattered...

Adonis (Tartarus): Whatever.

They were both having a great time, anyway.

Note:

The heroine sometimes has a male body.

Chaos and the primordial gods, as well as the primordial gods among themselves, are not related by blood. They are creator and creations.

[Lovecraftian] About the Times the Lord of the Gates Was Taken Advantage Of by Sen Miao

Dickens, a horror novelist who has run out of inspiration, goes to a bar to drink and look for ideas. There, he spots a muse with a bewitching allure: a young flute player.

Determined to seize inspiration and write a work he can be proud of, Dickens decides to set off on a journey with his muse.

Accompanied by the flute's lilting, bizarre melody, their travels are filled with uncanny experiences beyond human comprehension, strange events that defy description.

People keep dying in a remote border town, their bodies seeming to have been torn apart by monsters.

When the maid at a mountain villa extinguishes the lights, darkness stretches and writhes in the corners.

In a remote mountain range, humanoid plants hunt a strange man in a cave.

Beneath the earth, dazzling lights bloom, and the town becomes a graveyard for the living.

As the flute plays, the young musician watches the writer, who is descending into chaos and nearing madness, with amused interest, anticipating the drama about to unfold.

When the final movement ends, Dickens finishes his work and gives the flute player a deeply satisfied smile.

"You're the greatest musician I've ever met, my friend. Look forward to the birth of a great work!"

The flute player, taken advantage of, watches the writer stride off and quietly crushes his flute.

With his novel a bestseller and himself famous overnight, Dickens lies back on his soft bed, ready to fall asleep, when the flute sounds again.

"Do all you evil gods have no sense of time? It's midnight!" Dickens grabs a pillow and throws it at the stern young man by the door.

The young man gives him a knowing smile. "Sorry. Shouldn't we settle the score for that little inspiration session?"

1. Lovecraftian fiction. Source material comes from the Cthulhu Society, with lots of original worldbuilding that will be explained in advance.

2. An alternate world with settings that aim to be plausible. Don't nitpick.

3. This is my first time writing in this genre, so some details may not be rigorous. Please bear with me. If you have concerns, please be kind. Reasonable suggestions are welcome.

4. The romance is slow-burn, the couple is set, and the author is happily writing.
