Thanatos has had little occasion to give his wants any thought at all over the past... He's lost count of how long it's been since his work - his purpose - utterly consumed him. Had he spent more than five minutes with Hypnos since they were new gods? And how much of those short snippets of company had he spent simply berating his twin for his laziness and lack of work ethic?
He realises with a start that what he's feeling is shame.
The death god slants his gaze sideways towards his brother. He and Hypnos have many siblings but he has never felt as close to any of them as he does to his twin - the two of them cut from the same cloth, the same patch of darkness, all those eons ago.
