Hades will be here in twenty minutes, Apollo announced from somewhere way too close to the bed. Either speed this up or pick it up later, kids.Oh my gods, I whispered, horrified.Oh, and I hope you two are being responsible, Apollo added.And then he was gone. There was a muffled, hoarse shout from a room nearby. Damn him, Aiden muttered, dropping his head onto my shoulder. He shuddered. Damn him to the Underworld and back again.My cheeks burned. A bell-the first chance we get, we are buying him a bell.

The situation was tense, and the implication of responsibility from Apollo only added to the feeling of dread. One character whispered in horror at the announcement, illustrating their shock at the imminent arrival of Hades.

Aiden expressed frustration and disappointment, indicating a sense of urgency as well as embarrassment. There is a humorous undertone in his reaction, highlighting their predicament. The mention of a bell symbolizes a desire for better communication or perhaps a humorous way of dealing with Apollo's sudden intrusions, showcasing the blend of serious and lighthearted moments in the narrative.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
