every now and then i remember hetty’s fc was in j.upiter a.scending and my day is improved a thousand fold

[dolcesuono-a]

my muse for hetty has been temporarily diverted to my nano project, but i had to share this clip from the review of the first london production of le n.ozze di f.igaro in 1812:

“... signor fischer performs the count almaviva, and proves as clearly as in camilla, that unless he could get rid of his voice, his figure, and his rough german accent, he cannot reasonably hope to become a favorite. the soft flow of the italian language he converts into most rugged and guttural sounds, and his voice is accompanied with a strong breathing that, overwhelming the notes he would utter, produces a tone more like the bellows of an organ than that instrument itself. he however breathes in tune, and that is a praise due to no other male performer at the theatre...”

god. fucking. damn.

if you see me adding a character to my n.anowrimo project about hetty who both chronologically and geographically overlaps with the next gen p.oldark characters, no you don’t.

do i have a lot of feelings about hetty singing this? yes. am i gonna talk about them? not today fam...

[dolcesuono-a]

no but i cannot stress how many problems this damn baby just fixed in the thing i’m writing. i was stressing and hetty was just like “oh btw i have a daughter didn’t you know??” and i was like “...oh. well obviously you do. literally everything makes sense now...”

[dolcesuono-a]

no one: no one at all: me: hetty has an illegitimate child

[dolcesuono-a]

all u need to know at this point is that hetty has hot friends

[dolcesuono-a]

@ircnwrought​ liked for a starter!

        “  are you sure you wish to be seen speaking with me?  ”    a wry smile quirked on her lips when the younger woman approached. she had been hired to sing at the family’s fête, and though she was admired and applauded for her voice, she was hardly a respectable social companion for a daughter of the house...    “  would your mother approve?  ”    she added, brow lifted slightly in amusement.

@talesspin​ liked for a starter!

“  i’m honored,  ”    she said, handing him a glass of punch.    “  it is not often i can count a prince amongst my guests...  ”    she turned an eye towards the gathering at hand. artists, musicians. an entertaining coterie of friends she’d managed to amass over the years. they made for far better company than her usual patrons...    “  well, at least they are rare in this particular company...  ”    she added with a knowing glance in his direction.
