Summary
Eurydice frowns. “That pickup line usually work on girls,” she nods at the guitar slung over his back, “player?”
“Yes. Usually.” He squints his eyes, in seriousness more than irritation. He wraps his hands around the fingers holding the match and gives her hand a gentle shake. “I’m Orpheus.”
“Eurydice.”
Orpheus clears his throat. “So,” he says, “what are we going to do? Now that we know each other.”
“Nice try.” Eurydice untangles her hands and her new match from his fake handshake. She holds the match under her chin and lets her face stretch with underlit shadow. “It’s nice to meet you again, Orpheus.”
***
Or, Eurydice starts to remember, and they get a little closer to something like a future.

Summary
Eurydice's world is a wash of blue, yellow and green.
"It should be of great comfort to you," one of her carers had told her once. "You'll never have any doubt."
But Eurydice knew better.

Bookmark Notes:
That was good angst, right there. That their love both sustained them and stalled them. And it has such a moving ending.
This was beautiful beautiful beautiful and it was the perfect companion to Eurydice's perspective of the same story. How lucky are we to be given not just one moving fic, but two! Thank you greatly for writing. I really genuinely was crying start to finish and it must have been quite a sight for everyone else on the plane ride.

Summary
Twenty years ago, the world fell. The living dead crawled out of the hospitals and graveyards, and brought with them a pestilence that spread faster than anyone could have imagined. Now, the people that survived are picking through the rubble of civilisation, desperately trying to make a living. One of these roving scavengers is a hungry young girl wise to the ways of the world, Eurydice by name. But when she comes to a settlement called Olympus Towers, what she finds there will change the course of her fate forever. A poor boy working on a song, a smooth-voiced radio operator, a promise of hope from a place called Hadestown - all of this will shape her destiny.

While Our Brother Is Eaten by Silikat
The story of Hadestown but instead of dying when they go to hadestown, the people get bitten by zombies. Orpheus's song calms the zombies for a while but doesn't turn them back. In hadestown they get injected woith a product that turns them almost human as long as they stay inside the walls. Eurydice gets bitten and she goes to hadestown but Orpheaus goes to bring her back. He succeeds but as soon as they got outside the walls she turns and he ahas to retreat but still tries to turn her back often.
The story ends as it seems that Eurydice has turned back because of Orpheus's song. -

Summary
“Ball!” But it’s too late, and a soccer ball files from the green grass, bashing into his face. He groans, a crack emitting from the impact, and blood seeps out onto his hands. A young girl runs up to him, pushing her bangs out of her face. She stays back, eyes widened and body stock still. He looks up at her, eyes softening at the sight of her.
She reminds him of a song, one Mister Hermes taught him, long ago.
It's a love song.
Orpheus and Eurydice with the “sports girl x nerdy boy” trope because I’m obsessed with this idea and them

Summary
Orpheus has always been, well, soft. There’s no dancing around it. He’s always worn his heart out on his sleeve, and it’s gotten him into some trouble. There were others, before Eurydice. He never got very far there. He is so passionate, so open… it scares people. The son of a muse can’t help it - he’s made for art, made to express. Eurydice is the first place he feels safe to just be as he is. He may have come on too strong, but she had found a place for him in her heart. He’s grateful, he’s so full of love and feeling that he can’t contain it for a second.
