“two is for discipline heedless of trial” yeah motherfucker they were NOT heeding those trials. They couldn’t they didnt even know where the trials were. “heedless of trial” bitch they finally found the trials and were like uhmmm this violates OSHA.

harrow the ninth is really like. what if orpheus didn't turn around. what if he wasn't going to turn around. what if he kept his face pointed resolutely ahead and trusted that she was there even not knowing what he was hoping for. what if orpheus had to be cajoled and threatened and eventually forced to turn around. what if eurydice hadn't been told the rules and also had a crippling fear of abandonment and spent the whole time pleading with him to look at her. what if orpheus trusted that she would follow him but eurydice couldn't trust that he would care. what if orpheus was told point-blank that eurydice was almost certainly not actually behind him and he chose to keep walking anyway. what if eurydice touched sunlight again and orpheus wasn't there. what then.

What if you really wanted to kiss a girl but you'd been brought up to hate her and then coerced into serving her and so instead of kissing her you commit suicide for her and then take her grief (which btw is so overpowering she has to lobotomize herself) as a rejection. they're falling in love the worst anyone's ever done it. They are so bad at this. And in a culture full of stories about women who are either hypercompetent or basically not people, that loser lesbianism is both inspiring and necessary
