During the time I had last night I did a bit of reading for Hades hints and
Mac stood out a couple of times.
The first statement that jumped out was this-

I realize quite well that I didn't include it in its entire context, but it did in fact seem to jump out at me stand-alone, as he didn't have to say it exactly like that.

Almost as if he was getting Persephone's attention- "Hey! Persephone! Be looking for hints! *ahem* "
And then there was this one that looks rather harmless, but immediately upon my second read-through stood out to me-

The middle part of the statement that stands alone between the commas I found quite interesting, "though it's frustrating to be ALONE with it". A hint that he's all alone, i.e. he's not with his lover?

And of course I should ask
Mac directly- what's the deal, laddie? Do you feel you were rather fixated on Lovers yesterday, particularly Hades/Persephone? If so, was it intentional?
The thing is, there could be a couple of explanations with behavior like that- the obvious thing, the less obvious but more likely by percentages thing, or the least likely by role percentage and easily forgotten thing but obvious if you re-read the rules. (Do you follow me?) So- which thing is it?
