MASTERMIND MEME

[employeeoftheyear]

Well now that everything is settled, why not be a little evil? In this AU, your character is the one behind all of this! Feel free to stretch things however you like to make it reasonable for your character to have done this! The world is your evil oyster.

And obviously this doesn't have to line up with game canon; if your character would have been dead in the canon, they can be survivors in this AU! Or you can pretend your character died to hide the fact that they're the mastermind if they lived!

Just go wild! There's no such thing as too much gloating and villain songs!

[Spongebob did hear the story of Orpheus, from his friends, but he had hoped that maybe, if he tried hard enough... that he could have helped them.

Tears well up in his eyes. Oh Neptune he could have saved them, couldn't he have?]

But... why...? Why would you do this? Eurydice, she... she wouldn't have wanted...

[He struggles to find words. His mind is just so muddled from the shock of this whole situation that it feels like his brain is shutting down.]

[ Orpheus doesn't move, eyes fixed on the grave, hand still extended. ]

You don't understand. This is the only way. I've walked out of the underworld too many times to count, and I always look back. She always dies again, because of me. Mister Hermes - he was the one making things repeat, in the hopes that I'd stop breaking my promises, every single time, but. He couldn't do it anymore. So he showed me how. He took me to a place outside of time, and taught me how to turn back the clock.

[ Finally, slowly, he turns around, looking at the group. At Spongebob. ]

I kept trying. I don't know how many times. But it never worked. I might've been stuck there, doing the same thing over and over again for the rest of time, if I hadn't taken a wrong turn on the way to the Underworld and found the Opera House.
