    Summary

    After a night of drinking, Persephone pushes Hades over the edge. She knew he could have a temper, but when he lashes out it’s anger she’s never seen before. That’s when she realizes she’s never gotten him mad while he was drunk.

    Summary

    Struck with rage and grief when he hears his old melody, Hades tries to make good on his threat to kill Orpheus. Persephone intervenes, the two gods fighting like never before. When all seems lost, Orpheus' song turns out stronger than ever.

    Or, Epic III goes a little differently, and maybe things turn out, this time.

    Summary

    “I’ll do anything,” Orpheus says. His knees are beginning to buckle under him. “I’ll work in the mines. I’ll work on the wall.”

    “Son, you wouldn’t last a day down there,” the god drawls.

    “Then I’ll sing,” he croaks. “I’ll sing for your workers to keep them in line. I’ll sing for your wife, to keep her underground. Please…” He glances back at the house—really more of a shack—where Eurydice lies by the dwindling fire. “I can’t let her starve.”

    Silence. Then, a quirk of the lips—not really a smile, but the gesture of one. “I suppose I could use a canary.”

    Summary

    The two stumbled, the girl whipping around to brace her hands on Orpheus’s chest before she broke apart from him. Orpheus nearly dropped the bottle of wine in his hands, but his attention wasn’t on the alcohol.

    It was on the girl in front of him.

    The two stared at each other for a moment, a beat, as if time itself froze them together in a trace. The girl was transfixed, her guard slipping as she looked at the deer-like face of Orpheus. Orpheus looked back. Wide eyes and a slightly agape mouth, he took a step back from the girl. And as she stood still, Orpheus’s fingers drummed at the side of his pants.

    Hermes recognized the look on the young musician’s face. He’d seen it so many times. The look of pure love, of enamoration, of obsession. But Hermes could tell there was something else mixed and lingering within the eyes of Orpheus, looking like a deer underneath a train’s blinding headlights.

    The dread of realization.

    ✧°˖ . ݁˖︵‿❀‿︵˖ . ݁˖°✧

    or, orpheus slowly realizes he knows how this story ends, but so hopelessly in love, knows he'll do it all over again.

    Summary

    The road out of Hadestown was built for failure.

    Orpheus walked with his jaw set, his song still trembling on his lips. He could feel Eurydice behind him, not her hand, not her breath, but the absence she had been, now filled in again. The empty place in his life had weight, and it was her. Or what felt like her presence. How could he ever be sure?

    He did not look back.

    But oh, he wanted to. Needed to.

     


    (Or, the ending we all wanted, if it had turned out this time.)

    Summary

    “Well that’s exactly it, isn’t it, Orpheus? You’re afraid that I’ll leave again, and I’m afraid I’ll feel too safe that I’ll want to stay!”

    There’s a breathless beat between them.

    Then Orpheus, voice cracking like something spilling out:

    “Have you considered, just for a moment, that maybe I want you to stay? I want you to feel safe, Eurydice — fuck, I love you, for gods’ sake!”
