[ Orpheus pauses, drumming his fingers on the body of the guitar thoughtfully. It's rude to gossip, especially about the gods, but this seems kind of important. And they kind of made it everyone else's business by causing an endless cycle of blizzards and droughts. ]
They still love each other, it's obvious that they do. But the problem is - Lord Hades, he keeps coming to the surface earlier every year to take Lady Persephone back home, because he misses her. And Lady Persephone hates that and gets mad at him for it, which makes him more afraid of losing her, so he keeps doing it.
[ He's had the very awkward honor of watching those arguments play out in the train station while seeing the goddess off, and he winces a little at the memories. ]
So it's... a complicated thing, to try to work out.
[ reasons that Orpheus thinks he can accomplish this with a song are unclear, aside from the principle of "when all you have is a hammer" ]
