Cool Girl x Boy Who’s Desperate To Impress And Spend Time With Her And Hella Persistent

A gift bringing them further together (flower and teddy bear respectively)

Orpheus & Michael being guitar players!

Eurydice & Star as hungry young girls trying to keep their boys away from the Underworld and protect them from the men who are in charge of it.

All Eurydice and Star have ever known is how to hold their own!!! And now they want to hold him too!!!!!

“How far are you willing to go?” “To the end.” x “Just how far would you for her?” “To the end of time. To the ends of the Earth.”

Star and Eurydice being pulled into the Underworld by the men who run them and having no one else to turn to/nowhere else to go during that time. And both of them taking deals they didn’t fully know the terms to.

Orpheus and Michael both being abandoned by a parent whose influence partially defines them and what they do/how they move throughout the world.

Michael and Orpheus bringing out the softer/dreamier sides of Star and Eurydice.

Crazy post confessional/vulnerability tongue kiss with hands on someone’s face 😭

Walking out of the Underworld together (technically 🤡) AND being ride or motherfucking DIE!!!!

Bonus Parallels (Star-Orpheus & Michael-Eurydice)

Star pleading with David to let Michael go versus Orpheus convincing Hades to let him and Eurydice return to the above world

Star and Orpheus kissing their lover’s hands

Michael and Eurydice searching for belonging!!! Michael wanting to belong to someone and Eurydice wanting a home that she doesn’t have to run from, safe from the weather and the ever changing wind.

“Who is that bolt of lightning? I have to know her.”

SAY!!!! NO!!!! MORE!!!!!! I’M SAT!!!! I loveeee the ‘lightning struck’ trope so much like you do NOT have to convince me any more 😵‍💫

“Look at this little lamb, he thinks he knows who I am. He’s got no clue what he’s getting into, I’m trouble through and through. And I’m afraid of what I wanna do.”

One thing I also love is a woman who is strong and secure in her identity and that’s EXACTLY who Star is from what I understand. But also the fear (hesitance? Anticipation?) that comes from being struck — cause she got hit by that lightning too!! All while Have To Have You is rising in the background 😵‍💫 and the messaging and intent of THAT song is crystal clear as well 🙂‍↕️
