"Oh, my friend Heracles. Welcome to my home. Please, don't feel burdenedβeat, drink, make yourself at home, and then head out whenever."
"Thanks, Admetus. I was starving anyway. But what's with the messy state of the house?"
"A servant who worked here died, so that's why. It's nothing to worry about. But I have some business to attend to, so I'm sorry to say I need to step out for a bit."
"What are you talking about between friends! Don't worry about me and just go. Heh, you really went all out with this spread, didn't you? I could tear into this like lion skin today."
"Tsk tsk, can you even call that a person...?"
"Are you talking to Heracles like that right now, you dare?"
"Yes. Though I'm just a lowly slave, I've always admired the heroic tales of Heracles the Great, whose name echoes across the Mediterranean. But what good is being a hero?! Not noticing that your friend has fallen into the grief of losing his wife, and just eating like a pig!"
"...Admetus went through something like that, and yet showed such consideration to a friend, and I didn't know? If I cannot repay this mistake of mine, how dare I call myself a hero?!" (A moment later)
"Hey, let that go."
"WAAAHHHHH!!!!" Heracles, after finishing his business, beat up Thanatos on his way back and got Admetus's wife returned. Admetus thanked Heracles for this and praised his father Zeus, holding a grand ceremony. Zeus felt a bit uneasy about it all, but since the celebration was so big, he figured it was fine anyway. Only Thanatos, not understanding what was going on, had tears in his eyes after getting beaten up while doing his rightful duty.

Man should've just given him his wife and dipped lol γ γ
Just awkward for no reason γ γ γ
Wait... you're bringing back the dead? We didn't see that coming, you really are a hero
Guess pulling people to the underworld is the same whether it's East or West... people are just jerks about it
It's literally his job to drag people away after they die and he doesn't expect any nonsense? That's asking for it...
It's not about 'killing' people and dragging them, it's about people being 'already dead' when he drags them lol γ γ γ
He was just doing his job faithfully and got punched in the face smh
(Looking just like his old man that bastard.... γ γ )
What did Thanatos even do to deserve this γ γ γ γ
Already got payment from Zeus himself so can't even complain γ γ
Just beating up a civil servant minding his own business, how noble that is son (UFC fighter)
He's not even just a UFC fighter lol γ γ γ γ he's like some Baki-type monster they couldn't catch even if they mobilized the whole army
His job was beating up Cerberus in the underworld, bringing back dead people isn't even part of the gig γ γ γ
Thanatos can at least blame getting beat up by Heracles but this bastard also got imprisoned by Sisyphus γ γ γ γ γ
???: Mmm~ ambrosia and nectar, yummy~ next time should I mess with the offerings to the gods? γ γ
Wait aren't you basically disrespecting civil servants too much γ γ
okay but like was the food actually good tho π asking for a friend
Dude γ γ γ γ γ I was performing my legitimate duties as a public official γ γ
LMAOOO why would you even do that at a FUNERAL?? bro had zero self control π
Honestly sounds like something that would happen at my family gatherings, everyone forgets their manners when food appears
Do you know who I am
If you don't know who I am you're literally dead γ·γ·γ·
If there was no religious ritual he would've made them both into constellations with the full force of executive power lol
Since he basically caused a disturbance in the underworld by making an offering to Zeus, Hades should've lost it. But Thanatos smartly got Zeus himself (not Heracles) to acknowledge the heroic deed through the ritual, so Hades couldn't even do anything about it. Zeus is like 'what is this treat?' nom nom honey cake->Thanatos gets beaten up and wife gets recovered, all acknowledged by the supreme god lol
It's like only people who know how to ride the bus can ride it γ γ γ
This is absolutely insane, I can't believe someone would be that disrespectful. The widow must have been mortified.
I've seen some wild stuff online but eating like you're at a buffet while people are mourning is a whole new level of socially unaware
This man really said 'grief isn't stopping my appetite' π the audacity
