thinking about dr Orpheus in vbros and how his main deal, other than being a dr strange expy and a single father is that his wife divorced him for a younger, more family-focused man.
it isnt the magical world separating them, which is the source of his and his daughter's conflict, his ex-wife is a sorceress who even still attends events he holds with her new beau. they even co-parent triana, with triana free to choose who to live with.
anyways. Orpheus' interpersonal issues always arise with how much he focuses his life on his work, people he loves end up feeling neglected and unconsidered (ex: trianas convo with him about her closet, and how he keeps making her forget).
Orpheus IS a loving man. He WOULD go to the underworld to save those he loves. But. He is so good at his work, in the mythology I don't think he is an Orpheus who looks back.
He doesnt look back, and so the people he loves feel unloved, and they leave him in the world of the living
#Shitpost#also funky that his family is all women and we focus on his relationships to women#but in the active show hes just. around dr venture and co. and his two male teammates#its like. here. have a guy who was a womens studies major or whatever.#his relationships with women are intense and caring but eventually his job wins out?#even though we see him as basically a cutsie puppy dog doting father etc#he STILL cant keep the women in his life around#*around like specifically at his side#also naming a necromancer Orpheus like. There is Something There#Im just ramblimg. I dont really think this was fully intended#his name is just Cool or whatever. But its just. Interesting to me#so im deffo reaching here but whatever. Vbros posting#Orpheus isnt even a main fucking character. dies.
