If we're talking just about after he dies, no he won't be back, ever. His afterlife is with Ophidichan, not Hades.

I thought it was still unclear, like 50/50 chance of ending up in either place. And that's if they don't reach a different arrangement, like doing part-time in both or outright splitting his soul.

Since no one's commented on it so far, I'll point out that there's a map under 'Affirmative'.
Nice to know the afterlife isn't stagnant at least.
Do they get BBC World Service down there?

No. Sadly, radio waves don't propogate across the outer edge.
Shouldn't that be "to"?
I have no idea what pickup line Paul was going for here. Can anyone explain that one to me?
It depends on if Melinoe is just a nymph or is the daughter of Hades and Persephone according to Wikipedia.
Bored housewife + single daughter = MATCHMAKER!!!
And like many parents who have grown offspring still living with them, Hades might be willing to throw Melinoe at OL just to her out his hair. Having a moody teenager cramping your style for centuries would test anyone's patience.
Persephone: "Squee! That Paul lad couldn't take his eyes off of Melinoe!"
Hades: "Nice to see a boy who appreciates a girl with a big set of horns. Most modern mortals are so prudish about dating outside of their species. Why, back in the day..."
[speaking of 'nightmares and madness']
Dream-OL: "I've decided to get a girlfriend."
Dream-Zatanna:
"R-r-really?"Dream-OL: "A girl whose smart, funny, and dependable."
Dream-Zatanna: "Ohhh Paul..."
Dream-OL: "Which is why I hooked up with Starfire!"
(Zatanna waits up screaming)
Zatanna: "Oh thank goodness, it was only a dream."
Melinoe:
"Or was it? Mwa-ha-ha!"Zatanna:

Thank you, corrected.
He was attempting to get her talking about herself.

Same here. Though at this point we've become kind of indiscriminate to the point of being two steps from shipping him with a ham sandwich.

OK, so I can understand hitting on a Nymph. Nymphomaniac, right? But surely, surely, there are better Nymphs on the planet than the Nymph of nightmares and madness? Like almost literally any others, preferably ones that don't live in the underworld. Hell, hit on Eris, that's still probably a better idea than her. At least then the local priesthood doesn't get panicked calls about some guy walking around with a demon.
Actually, is a talk with Aphrodite in OL's near future? That would be interesting. I'm sure she knows a few lonely minor deities that wouldn't mind OL hanging around.

That's easy to fix, build a receiving station outside, run a line through the entrance, then hook that line up to a transmission station put together inside.
Repeat after me, "You know about me, but all I know about you is badly done myths I read about it books?" or "What's it like living in the Underworld?".
Regardless of the potential romance angle, OL might think he unintentionally insulted Melineo (he did), and the British Code of Politeness demands that he make some form of apology.
As both a Paragon and a Champion of Avarice, OL is all about giving people what they want in such a way that doing so gives them the opportunity to become better people and/or improves society. It's how he made alliances with Lex Luthor, the Cheshire, Beresford Twins, Abra Kadabra, etc.
Thus, the two questions OL ought to ask himself are "what gift do you give to a demi-goddess of nightmares and madness?" and "how can a demi-goddess of nightmares and madness use her abilities for the betterment of mankind?"
I'm a fan of the webcomic "Girl Genius" so I associate madness with inspiration, so maybe OL could tell Melineo about 'Epiphanic Prisons' as a way to combine the concepts of nightmares and inspiration whereby her nightmares are about teaching people to face their fears or recognize their own flaws rather than inflicting terror for its own sake. Those that succeed become better people (not necessarily good people) while those that fail slowly fall into madness.
