Summary
After his death, Achilles finds himself in the underworld. Prepared to face his judgement and eternity, he marches into hell, only to learn that Patroclus never arrived. He sets up vigil outside the gates, and waits.
~/~
'Where is he?’ he demanded, his voice breaking against the colossal thrones like a wooden spear against the walls of Troy. The crowd stirred over his shoulder, whispers amongst ghosts, but Achilles paid them no mind.
‘And who do you speak of?’ asked Minos, the barbs of his lashing tongue catching Achilles’s skin, tearing what little remained unmarked. He turned his attention to the last of the judges, and spoke solely to Rhadamanthus.
‘Patroclus.’

Summary
In the years following the battle on the moon, the to-do list of Shibusen has become a bit sparse. The world seems to be, for the lack of a better term, at ‘peace' -- and so the saviors of the world have since been twiddling their thumbs, not knowing what to do with themselves.
Not having a steady job makes her grumpy. The aircon set to two degrees short of Satan's armpit makes her grumpy. And Soul Evans is somewhere on a frosty airplane eating complimentary biscotti cookies or whatever those things are, because he's The Last Deathscythe and he gets to meet presidents and whoever.
(Maka adapts to a world with little need for meisters, and Soul adapts to peacetime as best as a giant knife on a stick can.)
(Spirit enjoys saying 'lmao' out loud.)
(Written with love for the 2018 SoulxMaka fanzine.)
