  1. Pretty low-key, for a Hellmouth.

    Apparently she hasn’t quite digested that last pomegranate seed.

  2. Mm yes, and then she’ll probably need one last burp.

    But she wouldn’t have considered it a Hellmouth, would she? I thought it was Christianity that came up with lakes of fire and eternal flayings. For the Greeks it was just the Underworld. Plenty creepy, but not so much of the twisted delight in torture and vengeance.

  3. “Hades-mouth” doesn’t roll off the tongue as smoothly.

    Besides, there was a nasty corner of Hades — Tartarus.

    “Hades-mouth — now with Tartarus control!”
