question. are the 'lotus eaters' from Jessica laws song Lotus eaters the nymphs? ik that if the song was kept in it would be in place of sirens but idk enough about greek mythology to really pick up on that that implies.
I kinda though so because lotus is frequently referenced as something Orpheus struggles with addiction to, aswell as presumably being big in the nymph scene/Dionysus's clientele, being so focused on pleasure.
(set at a party held by narcissus, Dionysus's most popular nymph)
also this line (government sponsored??? hmmmm)
#might just be me (who for some reason though lotus eaters was a song SUNG by Orpheus the first few times I heard it 😭 and so had him in#the front of my mind the whole time)#but also the vibe of the song feels very seductive. and the idea of letting go of outside troubles and matters of the word to loose yoursel#to the lotus/drug addiction. feels in line with the nymphs doubling as information extractors as well as pleasure workers#could be completely wrong tho and would just like to hear other ppls thoughts#esp since I know jack shit about greek myth 😭#psii.txt#ulysses dies at dawn#jessica law#languid little lies#lotus eaters#udad Orpheus#udad narcissus#the mechanisms

modern UDAD headcanons
•i feel like ulysses works retail and the olympians and suits are just the really weird customers. the vault tree is a shrub in a pot in the break room given to him by penelope
•orpheus performs at goth and punk clubs as a single artist. people give him money because they feel bad.
•bonus narcissus. sometimes he shows up and does interpretive dance to whatever he sings
•heracles does boxing. i dont have much more to say here. maybe he does part time as a renfaire guy because have you been to a renfaire? bro would love being apart of the fake fights
•oedipus is just a normal doctor. he’s probably that guy in fics characters come to when they have been injured. orpheus and heracles are weirdly enough the two most common for him to see. orpheus falls off stage a weird amount of times and heracles literally fights for a living. he absolutely hates everyone.
•ariadne is in school for computer science and programming. she regularly does cybercrime for random good causes (god forbid women do anything)

[ID: a screencap from Orpheus and Narcissus Go On A Trip to the Seaside by the Mechanisms [link] reading “This was no inconvenience whatsoever to the nymphs, apart from one occasion at the end of Orpheus' first week, when Dionysus had proclaimed: "That was a great week's work, darling. You've got real potential. Well done. Oh, and by the way, you're fired." Orpheus had punched his employer in the face and burst into tears before Narcissus could intervene.” The background is white and the text is black. End ID]
This is your friendly reminder that Orpheus UDAD is so incredibly sopping wet

This- this might be the wildest take I've ever had, bur bear with me.
I'm thinking about how Narcissus wasn't really a bad person. (This post was absolutely not triggered by my sudden UDAD thoughts, of course not/s).
(In depth explanation under the cut, this got kind of long)
Like... in the original version of the myth, Echo falls in love with him after 1 meeting, and he rejects her. Which?? Seems fair enough??? Echo, girl, he didn't owe you reciprocated feelings.
And then supposedly, Echo prays to Nemesis, to curse him to feel a love that was equally unrequited as hers had been. So he falls in love with himself.
Even if you take away the part about it being a curse, is vanity really such a horrific crime? Some people just love themselves more than they love others, and that isn't bad, unless they're actively hurting people- which Narcissus seemingly wasn't. Maybe his rejection of Echo was harsh, but it's not like he was cruel, or violent.
And then, even in the modern day, his name is demonised. "Narcissist" is used as an insult, there's the myth of "narcissistic abuse", and people with NPD are deemed "dangerous" and "scary". Obviously those examples are an issue that deserve their own post, because the ableism towards anyone with a mental health problem- even "accepted" ones like depression- is horrific. But just think about it for a moment... you didn't feel romantic feelings for someone, and now, centuries later, everyone thinks you were evil.
In fact, there's almost connections to be made with the modern aromantic experience. I've seen people say that being aro means you're "self-obsessed" and "incapable of feelings".
I.. I don't really know where this post was going, but I think Narcissus deserves better. Also, people with NPD, you are cool and awesome, and I wish I could do more to help with the shit you face daily.

I think also that Narcissus UDaD/Languid Little Lies and Taako The Adventure Zone would hate each other for being too similar.
