[ Orpheus is not feeling particularly well today either. He's recovered from the lab and the existential crisis that came with it well enough, he guesses, but some days he just... misses Eurydice, misses Hermes and Persephone, misses the band and the bar, misses home. And the only thing he really has that he can do about it is sing, and play his guitar, sitting on the edge of a retaining wall on the college's campus. He doesn't notice Stefan approach, eyes closed and lost in the song. ]
You ain't never been blue; no, no, no, You ain't never been blue, Till you've had that mood indigo. That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues". I always get that mood indigo, Since my baby said goodbye.
[ A flock of assorted birds has gathered around him - crows, songbirds, pigeons, and it's only when a little sparrow lands on his shoulder that he opens his eyes to look over at it, and only then that he notices his audience.
He stops playing abruptly, putting his hands over the strings to stop their vibration. ]
Oh! I'm sorry! I didn't notice you there. You didn't - you're okay, right?

You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You ain't never been blue,
Till you've had that mood indigo.
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
I always get that mood indigo,
Since my baby said goodbye.
