Due to the positive feddback on the suggestion post, letś do this!

You give me a prompt. I´ll write you one, but in turn the next person will ask a drabble from you and you will write it. The next person will request a drabble from that person.....and so on and so forth.

So, B gets a drabble from A, C gets a drabble from B, D gets a drabble from C

Under Autumn Leaves: AU Trickster/Piper, allusions to greek mythology

When the last of the autumn leaves curled up on the forest floor, the Piper in green shades winded down his mournful tune, and let the caressing shadows pull him in and under, till he was caught in the arms of the laughing devil. Under a black sky where all light was fire, Piper closed his eyes against the brilliant green flames that framed the throne, and opened his mouth to kisses that tasted like wine and pungent sweet plums.

The Trickster was a god of many guises, of a realm with ever reforming faces, seen by belief. The Piper was the song of changing seasons, the herald of new life when sprouts broke ground, and of goodbyes when fruits should fall.

For six months after, what grew in the ground would stay asleep and silent, while in the realm below, the Trickster would play his lover to hear his name in sighs, six months a laughing god would know the softness of spring.

AN: Hades!Trickster and Persephone!Piper is inspired by They shared a mutual hatred of..., where ivybramble has Piper joining Lord Trickster in hell by eating pomegranate seeds, all twelve, greedy lovebirds, also the one with Roguepokolips, and much earlier, the seed of this, one where Trickster was the son of Neron, but everyone left, but I was like, no, Piper, staaaaaaaaay!

Piper as spring makes sense, the green and the music, winter is eerily quiet when snow falls without a windstorm, and spring announce its return with birds and frogs song, and plants DO respond to music. Traditionally Persephone, or Kore, represent spring, and sapling, and seeds, so fruits, so autumn for her wasn't just death, it's a part of it too. Piper's "Anti-Life Equation" just lays down the dreams for spring. Trickster has the Underworld because Tricksters tend to be associated with guises and changing faces, and many people see a different kind of afterlife, oh, gods in some mythos are devils in the other, vice versa.

My but that was eerily lovely. Loved the allusions and the imagery was delightful. *gloats like a Rogue over the inspiration credit*
