peak epic 2 verse

crashing and pounding / the river surrounds him / and drowns out the sound etc.

and the river’s mouth was a million mouths / and they sang so loud etc.

like stones in a row / and stone by stone / and row by row etc.

the ship of theseus wikipedia article in 2003. 20 years later, after 1792 total edits, 0% of its original phrasing remains. (x)

[ospreyonthemoon]

And yet it's still the same article, the article designated to be about theseus' ship. Debate solved i guess

rip orpheus you would have loved having a rearview mirror

[polldownhadestown]

Would Orpheus have loved a rearview mirror?

Yes

No

Bald Muses

Voting ended onOct 29, 2025

Things to consider:

Do shades/the dead appear in mirrors? Is looking in a rearview looking back?

In a purer mythological sense, think also: Is there any potential for a Narcissus situation?

Would Hades and/or the fates be able to manipulate images in the mirror?

[peapea-0405]

Orpheus: I whip my towel back and forth

[lady-of-the-upside-down]

The headcanon that Eurydice can’t read makes the contract situation so much worse :(

I hc all she knew to write was her name, and she learnt that from Orpheus. But that was all she needed to sign the contract. Hades was probably like “whatever songbird just write your name” when she said she couldn’t read the contract.

[jaxs-beanie]

*hugs for Eurydice*

[polldownhadestown]

How did Eurydice sign the contract?

Writing

She only knows to write her name

With an “E"
