The Mechanisms were a band operating largely out of Oxford and London, UK. Offering retrospective futurist storytelling in the form of musical cabaret, they are a concept band consisting of immortal space pirates originally created by Dr. Carmilla as her backup band/companions. In between roaming the galaxy having fun, violence, adventure, violence and violence, they tell the tales of the things they've seen over the course of their long, long lives.The band is no longer active, having given their farewell performances in London on 18 and 19 January 2020 after around ten years of performing, but their albums remain available and the individual members remain active in other projects.The crew:note The roster changed slightly over the years as some members left or returned; the total number for most of their active years was between seven and nine. Jonny d'Ville: Carmilla's first Mechanism (that he knows of) and also the crew's first mate. He and his mechanical heart don't offer much in the way of say, friendliness or leadership skills, but he is the chief storyteller. Ashes O'Reilly: Former mobster, enthusiastic arsonist and the crew's Quartermaster. Ashes and their mechanical lungs provide the band with bass guitar and occasional vocals. Drumbot Brian: Despite his designation as Drumbot, Brian is more frequently seen playing the banjo and the accordion. A scientist who was launched into space and left to die, his entire body save his heart was replaced by Carmilla. One could describe him as the moral centre of the crew, but that would be foolish. The Toy Soldier: The Toy Soldier was never really mortal like the others, instead being a collectors item from a set of Toy Xs, but that didn't stop the Doc from fixing it up and installing it in the crew. Nobody really understands it or what it does, but it still happily provides mandolin, glockenspiel and vocals where required. Gunpowder Tim: The first Mechanism created by the crew in the absence of their Captain. He is a veteran of the war against the Moon Kaiser and is largely responsible for the destruction of the moon 3,000 years in the future ago. Assuming the role of gunner after the crew kindly replaced his eyes, he is well known for playing the guitar and singing some things. Though he is rumoured to be handy with a violin too. Marius von Raum: Ship's medic (not that they need one) and psychiatrist (not that they want one). He plays the violin, sings, and was found by the crew having already been mechanised by a mysterious stranger... Raphaella la Cognizi: Science officer who may or may not have cheated her way onto the ship after becoming a little too interested. Also she has wings. Brings gorgeous piano and vocals to the table. Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova: better known as Nastya Rasputina; princess from the Empire of Cyberia. Ship's engineer who largely favours machines over people - including romantically - Nastya is most often seen playing the viola and violin. Ivy Alexandria: Ship's Archivist and Navigator whose positronic brain provides her with an impressive memory of facts and statistics at the expense of most of her memory of her life before joining the Aurora. She could be described as a one person woodwind section, having been spotted playing the recorder, oboe, flute, euphonium and the penny whistle at various shows.

Beneath Notice: Not a single Asgardian notices that the entire service staff is made up of the Midgardian resistance—most egregiously, they don't notice Sigyn, who is the leader, and, with Fenrir and Loki locked up, the most wanted person in Asgardian territory, all because she's wearing a uniform and serving drinks.

Gone Horribly Right
 The Mechanisms (Music) / int_1994ba0b
comment
Gone Horribly Right: The scientists on Briar wanted a perfect copy of Rose Red with a super-soldier's enhancements. They made one—complete with memories of getting kidnapped from her own wedding (turns out Scheherazade sold the "Rose volunteered" story a little too well). Briar Rose murders her way through the entire facility, then hijacks its weapons to kill everybody else on Briar, and is only stopped by an emergency failsafe knocking her out.

Two of them, actually. "King Cole" is a Villain Song about the album's version of King Cole as a ruthless Galactic Conqueror, and "Rose Red" starts with a traditional performance of the round, before switching to a much harder version of the same tune about Rose's life in Cole's army.

Chekhov's Gun: Early on, it's established that Ulysses still has the Eye of the Cyclops, a diamond used to focus industrial lasers, because they were never able to fence it due to drunkenly yelling their real name in front of the cameras. The narrator also says Ulysses has a laser pistol with only one shot left. They use the Eye to split that single shot into twelve, killing the Suits and themself.

Older Than They Look: A particularly tragic example; what makes the Olympians immortal also gives off a contaminant that causes the Sphinx, a disease that causes infants to age so rapidly they die of old age within about a week. Oedipus found a cure, which is what originally made him famous, but he set the price incredibly high and most of the afflicted come from the slums, which means in practice he didn't help much.

comment
Adaptational Heroism: Loki and the rest of what is adapted as the Midgardian Resistance, in the original myths they're villains, with the best of them being cruel tricksters (with the exception of Sigyn). Here, they're La Résistance and Sigyn and Loki perform a Heroic Sacrifice to buy time for the Yggdrasil system, subjecting themselves to extreme agony for nearly a century.

Ungrateful Bastard: Everyone to the AI. Everyone finds it incredibly useful—but the second it tries to do something for itself for a change, they decide to kill it. (The fact it responds by destroying a whole planet does suggest that maybe two AI would be a bad idea, but at the time, nobody had reason to think that it wanting a second being like itself was actively dangerous.)

Bittersweet Ending: Most of their albums end with things being pretty bleak, but not hopeless. Before everyone dies horribly, generally friendships are mended, lovers reunited, and so on—basically, the characters' love for each other and good qualities are shown to matter even though they're going to die two songs later.

Go Mad from the Revelation: Odin, long before the events of the Bifrost Incident, setting it all in motion. Garm, who is driven into a murderous rage. Inverted with Loki, who is driven sane by the revelation.

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: According to one of the short stories, Jonny d'Ville has happily committed literally every crime known to humanity just for fun, but never rape or any other sexual misdeed. He's not sure why.

Captured on Purpose: A subversion of the Damsel in Distress trope; Col. Belle, after a year of torture (on the part of top rebel operatives) and tending to his wounds, eventually gets Adam (the Beast) to side with the rebels by arranging for herself to be captured by the Crown.

Wild Card: The Toy Soldier is this during the war against the Moon Kaiser. It understands fighting and following orders, but not picking a side—it obeys anyone who tells it what to do (or simply gives an order in its vicinity) authoritatively enough. This somehow results in it becoming both a colonel in the British army and one of the Moon Kaiser's bodyguards.

Ironic Nursery Tune: Two of them, actually. "King Cole" is a Villain Song about the album's version of King Cole as a ruthless Galactic Conqueror, and "Rose Red" starts with a traditional performance of the round, before switching to a much harder version of the same tune about Rose's life in Cole's army. The song "Alice", which is set a few decades after OUaTIS, sets the Red Queen's segment about decapitating people to turn them into robot soldiers to the tune of "The Mending Song" from Bagpuss.

Foreshadowing: A passing mention is made during Black Box that the remains of the Ratatosk Express consisted of nothing but "the engine room and a couple of warped skeletons". This seems like Narrative Filigree at first, until you realize that the skeletons are Loki and Sigyn. Odin's song might as well have "I am possessed and this will end badly" as the lyrics. In particular, the parts about answering the song of the void are important.

Cannibal Clan: The Saxon ghouls of Annwn live in the heavily irradiated outer edges of the station, and have to rely on cannibalism to survive.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork
 The Mechanisms (Music) / int_c3648b87
comment
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The Suits on occasions seem to be hellbent on pissing each other off, especially Heracles and...well, kind of everyone, but especially Orpheus. Naturally, they devolve into fighting each other in "Torn Suits", when they realize that the Trial by Love means one of them has to die to get into the vault—and the machine can't tell the difference between a sacrifice who's not running away because they're willing, and one who's tied up.

Hope Spot: When Arthur prepares to activate the GRAIL, Jonny, narrating, says, "Just this once there could be a happy ending!" Cue cynical laughter from anyone in the audience who's heard the Mechanisms before, and a broken Mordred showing up to kill Guinevere and Lancelot, take control of the station from Arthur, and plunge it into the sun.

Cosmic Horror Reveal: The story initially appears to be a mystery, trying to identify the saboteur (accidental or otherwise) who destroyed the Ratatosk Express. Turns out the Bifrost is actually part of Yog-Sothoth, and that if the train ever arrives, the entire Yggdrasil system will be consumed. The story begins with the train's arrival.

Anti-Villain: Of the Suits, Orpheus is the least reluctant to hurt anyone, has altruistic motives, is terrified of dying, and is picked on at times by the others, making him sympathetic to a greater degree than the others, who are bloodthirsty and cold to various degrees. His Trial reinforces this, as he laments his lot in life and how he only turned to crime out of desperation and poverty.
