Either Nyx or Hades officiated I can't think of anyone else there that it would make since to do that except maybe Hecate. Hera can't because her authority is on mount Olympus and the mortal world and I'm sure none of them would want Hera to do it
Plot twist: Hades definitely knows that Zagreus stole his ring, but when Persephone and Nyx tell him that he gave it to Thanatos, they all celebrate because my god, those 2 finally got together
Imagine if Than just said yes out of the blue and Zagreus just says "yes to what? the gift or the fact that I had to ransack my father's room to get the ring?"
I thought he was going to give Thanatos a cluster of those butterflies from the soul orbs in Elysium at first. "Than, do you like it?" "My hand is burning down to the bone, Zagreus." "You... don't like it?" "... No, it's, it's fine. I'll treasure it always."
The pierced butterfly is especially thoughtful when you realize Than's trying to incentivize Zagreus to get hurt less/stay out of harm's way. The cuteness of these two is almost too much for me
I HATE people that HATE other people. I get a lot of HATE comments on my amazing videos and I HATE it. Please don't spread HATE. Do I have to HATE you too, dear tommy
@The Complicator You: Don't assign historical figures sexuality because we're have no way of knowing. Some of Those historical figures: I love my wife so much I'd die for her. I'll never marry a man for I don't love them. All I need are my women and our home. The default shouldn't be straight until proven otherwise
@@themushroommonarch And some of those Figures even said point-blank," SCREW WOMEN, I WILL NOW ONLY LAY WITH MEN!" To make this more painful this particular poet died in 79 AD, and never really left a name so we don'tt know if it was a Man who wrote this or a Woman. But it's forever mentioned on the walls of Pompeii. And there is a possible Guess who it might be.
@@themushroommonarch absolutely true that we shouldn't assign sexual orientations to ancient people we can't really know. But straight is presumed as standard because a civilization of full-on, disgusted-by-the-other-gender, 100% homosexuals cannot reproduce and thus would have died in one single generation, therefore not really becoming a civilization but just a settlement of whatever the civilization of those exiled gays/lesbians was (and if not, we'd be presuming strange "voluntary rape" rituals that could easily be explained with heterosexuality, just like we don't explain grecoroman homosexuals as "social rituals" or what-have-you) Inclusivity is great, but let's not force it over science and logic.
@@enriquejoseantequerasanche6180 It is true that we can't assign sexual orientations to historical figures because they did not use the terms that we do. However, we can use the terms that they used to describe themselves. To use a classic example, Achillies refers to Patroclus several times as "philtatos" meaning dearest one, or most beloved. So, while we cannot say that they were gay we can say that Achilles held Patroclus as the person dearest to him because that is the phrase he uses to describe him.
this was mainly due to Aphrodite, as she believed that love was a fickle thing, and can be based around anyone. Your heart belongs to who it desires, and one should not force it otherwise. It's why homosexuality was pretty a-okay in Greek mythology
Yes and no, they romanticized a very specific style of relationship between a youth (mid teens to early 20s) and an older mentor (mid 20s to maybe early 30s) a homosexual relationship outside of this framework, say between two adult men would have been significantly frowned upon. Further this relationship was less about love then it was about mentoring the younger of the pair and being simply an accepted part of growing up/raising a young man in certain levels and classes of Greek society. There were also stipulations on the relationship, the major one being that the younger of the pair was always the receptive partner, for the man to be penetrated was emasculating and man who enjoyed such an activity would have been considered weird if not mentally affected.
Let's not forget that the greeks also didn't care about pedophiles, men would have sex with boys to "teach" them how to have sex, disgusting, that's one from the many reasons the religion and beliefs are now just mythology.
Zag: * Accidentally proposes with a grumpy skull ring that looks like it could be out of a toy story if you didn't know it' belonged to Hades himself * p e r f e c t

I always feel so bad when i use the pierced butterfly because most of the time zag makes a comment about how than's disappointed that my spastic dashing sent me expertly past all the witches' orbs and into a spike trap
If anyone didn't know Than and Zagreus actually date in the games if you choose to romance Thanatos. Thier love is also representative of a pure and sweet love and its beautiful
"TELL ME TO MY FACE THAT ZAG AND THAN AIN'T GAY" took me put 🤣 Like, I was in the middle of going "aww that's so sweet!" over how cute it was and then I just completely died laughing.
THAT LITTLE SING-SONGY VOICE, I- 🥺🥺🥺 (and you’re damn right - Than and Zag are hella gay. I’m romancing both him and Meg in the game so that I can get the polyamory romance! :D )
I think it’s actually kind of interesting, how being a gay man was treated by ancient Romans. Or, how Wikipedia _says_ it was treated at least. Despite many comments here, it wasn’t simply “they were cool with gay relationships”. An (unmarried) man could have sex with a woman or a young man without harming his social status, but only if they were slaves or prostitutes, and only if he was the one “Giving”, to be chaste. It was considered shameful, unmanly, and could seriously damage your social standing to “take the spear” so to speak if you were an male, non-prostitute citizen.
Yep, being a bottom was not well regarded for this fact exactly as it was a role pinned to slaves. It was also quite sexist, as greeks regarded the "passive" person as feminine, young (childish) and submissive regardless of gender. Therefore all women couldn't have 'dominating' roles in society nor high status unless they married, because they simply could not penetrate. And bottom men were considered women by taking that passive role, so it wasn't even viewed as homosexuality. Most men were having same sex relationships with young teenage boys instead of men their age because a child doesn't have social status yet, they were also more androgynous, thus it didn't damage their social standing until they would become adults. A bit disturbing, the age gap, the grooming... Can we not idealize it, please?
I mean, considering that in Ancient Greece, the line between straight, gay and bi was all but non-existent, I cannot, in good conscience, tell you to your face that those two are not gay. I am sorry that I cannot fulfil your request. :)

That is... So cute...
I know! ITS SO ADORABLE

Nice pfp
and then they got married
and Hypnos was best man, but he slept through the entire ceremony
My sides hurt from imagining this for some reason. Thank you. 😂

And I'm here like, "Come on it's ancient Greece, everyone was gay at the time"
Bisexual was the normal back then

I could tell you Than and Zag ain’t gay but I would be laughing myself purple trying to get the words outta my mouth.
Than and zag ai-HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAH-
Technically they're both bi
This is Greece were talking about. Back in ancient Greece it wasn't taboo to be gay, bi, lesbian, straight, it was kind of the norm.
My first interaction with Thanatos and following up on it back in the Hall, I just wondered to myself "are they dating?"
@@MRCrazyKorn so it's normal over there? That's news to me.
Knowing how the greeks didn't really care about guys having male lovers makes this even better for me.
Int the game you can actually romance than and they have a tender relationship. Thier love represents pure, sweet love and ots precious

You can romance Than without romancing Meg and vice-versa. So all combinations are possible ;)

Walks away
Taking his dad's shit is EXACTLY zags thing
"Zag couldn't possibly mean..."

This zag dude is such a wholesome boi. Plus he looks hella handsome and cute! And he also has wolf skulls on his shoulder which is rad.
There's three, actually.

“… a mortal just died, funny how these things keep happening ahaha” *poofs away in another bout of gay panic
Creators have stated that in all routes, Zagreus is canonically bottom
(also he be bi, you can have 3some)
we all know that Meg is the only top in that relationship
@@rae3460 no i wasnt, How can it be seen as offensive?
@@rae3460 what is offensive...?

Well, Zagreus is canotically bisexual.
That Zag voice is SPOT ON
0:47
never before has *gay panic* been portrayed by a drawing so well
"Zagreus, this is your father's wedding ring, he's is going to be pissed."
I was expecting him to softly whisper:"...I accept".

I mean, it's on a RING finger and I'm starting to hear weddings bells 😏*giggles and gets a mistletoe for zag and than*
This is probably the best outcome of Zag’s relationship paths in my opinion.
I honestly thought that he was to give him one of those orbs that fires tons of butterflies at same time.
0:10 is so sweet and cute. That's it, I'm sold.
His voice fits Zag so well
With Higurashi soundtrack in the background, the cuteness is over nine thousand 💚💕👌
Hades can make jewels, he'll be fine
Zag learned from the best: he liked it, so he dun put a ring on it💍
* meanwhile in Hades chamber
Hades: were is that blasted jewelry ring i need that to cover up my scared fingers
*And in Greece, ALL love is equal, just look at the gods of Olympus for example.*
omg much himbo energy in this.
I just, love this two so much.
*break down crying*
Than: "A ring...For me?, zag couldn't possibly mean-"
me: I HOPE THE FUCK HE DO
It is entirely possible in the Greek mythos that Than and Zag were together
I don’t know what this is but its adorable and wholesome and I love it
Your voice acting is AMAZING! You sound exactly like the characters!
Zag really put a ring on it huh
I don't even play "Hades" and yet I'm shipping it
Me neither but I'm really invested in the lore
You should definitely play it sometime!! It’s a ton of fun, and you can make this ship canon in game if you want
@@AiginSongbird426 I really want to play it but for now I don't have enough money to buy it, that why I'm going to earn some money to buy it
Id only tell you they aren't if you've not been giving him enough nectar.
Give than more nectar.
They're just,, really sweet
Now that's what I call Brotherly Love.
Lmao they so are 1:01
THANK YOU FOR THIS VOICE!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Not gonna lie. That's a pretty sick ring.
Idk who the hell said they aren’t gay when there was a sex scene in game, and neither of them said no homo
"Here, give me your hand" damn theyre already getting married?
Zagreus totally missing the ring meaning is so himbo of him and I love it
IT'S ON THE RING FINGER TOO. MARRIAGE PROPOSAL?
Here comes the bride~
Dressed all in death~
ive never seen a hades comic dub but I have never loved something so much
Lol y’all need to watch the than/zag romance cutscenes. They get very..... close. ;)
Yes 100% needed this in my life! UwU
History will say they were very good friends
*they:*
Have the option for romance and bed action.

look it up.
it's just some giggling and a black screen.
but it happened.
I sent a video to my friend of that scene and her one response was "They totally fucked" XDDD
THEY ARE THOUGH, SO I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY
Why can we be like the greeks back then and make gay fanart of two immortal dudes on a marble slab and it be completely normal
I think my heterosexuality just took damage
WHOEVER HAS THE GALL TO THINK THEY AIN’T GAY IS MISSING BOTH SIGHT AND READING COMPREHENSION
Zag strikes me a someone w few braincells
I'm dieing of cutness inside 🥰

"Gay panic, gay panic, aaaaaaaaaa"
AAAAA this is adorable!!
Zag/Meg/Than is the only poly ship I approve of
