I need more people in the stormweaver/iron prince fandom for so many reasons that I’ve compiled a list

The story is great and doesn’t get nearly enough attention Whatsoever

CADs??? They’re so cool??? Like “yes this is living evolving armor that grows with you and adjusts to your needs, there’s multiple weapon types/categories and they come in COOL COLORS like pink and black and blue and purple and green instead of just silver and they’re all individualized” seriously there’s a character whose professional fighter name is Stone Lily and she has bright pink and gray armor and absolutely Wrecked people in the SCTs (professional simulated fighting tournaments)

CADs can also get special abilities as they evolve and get more individual the higher their level

Anyways I need people who make self inserts and OCs and assign them CAD Types and design their armor because imo it’s much more interesting than Harry Potter houses (sorry not sorry)

the characters are Cool and I know people on here would go Feral for them

I know that someone (or multiple someones) on this website would probably imprint on Logan Grant the second he appeared on screen because he is an Asshole Pretty Boy with (spoilers) ………………………..a tragic backstory

Rei is The Best I Love Him and I want him to live his best life and Destroy People. He’s our MC and he’s got really fun to read characterization, is disabled, and kicks butt

There are multiple women with interesting, strong characters

one of the main characters (Viv) is openly bisexual and very clear that she has a preference for women but DOES like men and if you try to make her choose she will tell you to stick it where the sun don’t shine

Valera Dent could literally glare down her nose at me and I would thank her

As the books (2 out so far) go on there’s more and more casual queer characters that Exist like normal people

the world is pretty narrow focus right now because a lot of the setting is in just a few places but there’s a lot of potential for HUGE worldbuilding as our MCs get more powerful

theres more to this list but I’m posting it now because it’s getting long and I’ll forget otherwise

Above: Sandra Church, Jack Klugman, Lane Bradbury, Ethel Merman, and Peg Murray in Gypsy.

Gypsy, the musical based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, opened at the newly-refurbished Broadway Theater on May 21, 1959. It had a book by Arthur Laurents, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and music by Jule Styne. Originally, Sondheim had been slated to write the music as well as the lyrics, but Ethel Merman was nervous about entrusting the whole thing to such a young man (he was 29). Jerome Robbins directed and choreographed it.

Despite the title, the star of this show is Gypsy's mother, Rose Hovick, the stage mother to end all stage mothers. Often described as monstrous, she ruthlessly pushes her two young daughters into vaudeville, spotlighting the pretty blonde, June. But vaudeville is dying, and the girls are eventually forced into doing their act in burlesque theaters. It is there that one of the dancers persuades Louise, the "plain" brunette daughter, to consider striptease. She blossoms, of course, and becomes the famous stripper Gypsy Rose Lee. Her sister runs away and becomes the actress June Havoc.

Above: left, Jacqueline Mayro as Baby June (doing split) and Karen Moore as Baby Louise (Uncle Sam). Right, Sandra Church as the adult Gypsy and Ethel Merman as her mother.

The score is chock full of what would become standards: "Let Me Entertain You," "Everything's Coming Up Roses," "You Gotta Get a Gimmick," among others, as well as the most exciting overture in all musical theater. But the crowning musical achievement was the show's final song, "Rose's Turn," which one critic described as a "quick-mix of aria, stomp, anthem, hymn, recitative, shout, [and] wail." It's also the essence of the integrated musical number.

Above: Ethel Merman and Maria Karnilova.. Right, Jack Klugman and Merman.

Gypsy is often mentioned when the question of Best Musical Ever Made comes up. In addition to a film and a television version, it has been revived on Broadway four times; it would have been five if not for Covid. The 2015 West End production, starring Imelda Staunton as a stunning Rose, was supposed to have transferred. But the production is available to watch on DVD.

[stabs-cake-with-salieris-dagger]

Recently I've made some interesting and surprising findings about mor that seem lesser known in the fandom (or maybe I just don't dig deep enough) Also I accidentally hit ctrl z while almost finishing up the post that I spent the past hour or so typing and it deleted most of what I've typed......... with tears I retyped everything again SIGH (resulting in me not proofreading any of this) 1. So I remember seeing somewhere that says mor has both Mozart and Salieri's compositions, which I thought it was false because it's all Mozart as far as I know. Until one day I actually looked at the credit a bit closer and found this:

This is the music that plays before victime de ma victoire. Mozart wrote fortepiano variations at 17 years old of Salieri's aria, so they really just used Mozart's version of Salieri's piece from one of his most popular operas???? It made me kind of mad but also this felt like a meta commentary considering it's associated with victime de ma victoire scene. It's a self aware song where Salieri is regretting, trying to come to terms of what he's done, and 'predicting' his failure. It serves as a commentary of the whole Mozart and Salieri matter beyond the scope of the show and ends in "J'ai perdu pour l'Histoire (I lost for history)." In this case it does feel like Salieri is being pushed aside in one of the worst possible ways, and I really wish some of his music could have made their ways into the musical properly. 2. I found a Playbill article talking about mor being in the middle of being adapted into English for Broadway in 2012...... which honestly I'm really glad it failed because I don't have faith that it'd be good. There's already the example of tdv, and the way they talk about it just doesn't seem... great, such as “bring shape and focus to the musical for American audiences” and "When the French write musicals, a lot of their songs are written like pop singles placed contiguous to each other, while on Broadway, it's necessary to have a storyline and a semblance of relationship.” Pop French musical isn't everyone's cup of tea and that's of course normal but the way it sounds like they're going to really Americanize it and rewrite it majorly and by storyline and relationship I take they mean needing musical motifs, reprises, and such. Just makes me feel they should just write a whole new musical?? And maybe it's just me but the tone sounds a little patronizing too? Though I do wish they could have released the cd and dvd in North America just because I'm Canadain lol Also curious if there was a time staging mor in Quebec would have been viable. 3. I spend too much of my time watching mor clips, but I've somehow never looked at performances pre proshot until recently. There were a few changes in the ~2 month (if my memory serves) between premiere and first proshot made to vivre a en crever that surprised me. First 2 screenshots from this video, and the rest from this one.

First of all, no handshake at on se reverra???? It's giving 2 bros chilling in the hot tub 5 feet apart cuz they're not gay

This is a little hard to see but Salieri is kneeling beside the wall as Mozart departs and it had me screaming ;; I know Laurent did kneel but I didn't know it was a thing in the French tour. This video gives a sliiiightly clearer silhouette of him kneeling but he's also blocked by Cavalieri.

Constanze running up to grab Mozart and refuse to let him go really had me by surprise and it's so heart breaking ;;;; I've been debating whether I like this better or the one that they ended up using where she just reaches out to him from the bed, because it kind of changes the tone of the scene.

Anyway thanks for reading if you've gotten this far. There's so many analysis posts I'd like to do but I simply don't have the energy to.... but if anyone wants to talk about analysis I'm more than happy to ramble lol

if I finally actually write the warformed au that’s been brewing in the back of my mind for the past months would the tiny amount of people who actually know what warformed is on this site be interested?

I’m going to write it for myself regardless eventually because I’m going to perish waiting for book three otherwise, but I’m not sure if I’ll actually put it up anywhere

Mercedes Capsir - Capsir: Variations on a Theme (adapted from Mozart).

Brilliant Spanish coloratura soprano Mercedes Capsir (1895 - 1969) was Rosina in one of the earliest "complete" recordings of Rossini's "Barber of Seville" (made in 1929 and issued on 16 discs at 78 rpm). Instead of singing the aria that Rossini wrote for the Lesson Scene ("Contro un cor"), she interpolated a showpiece by another composer -- HERSELF! A tradition had developed over the previous decades for the diva to substitute one (or two...?) of her favorite display pieces into this scene, often in the theme and variations form. Capsir, however, didn't settle for the common Proch, Adam, Benedict chestnuts -- she created her own vocal arrangement based on a piano work by Mozart: K.354, 12 Variations on a Theme "Je suis Lindor." That original melody was composed by Antoine-Laurent Baudron as a love song for Beaumarchais’ stage play "Le Barbiere de Séville." So, a rather clever selection, Mme. Capsir! Capsir's lyrics are "Un verde praticel pien di bei fiori."

Come il calore influisce sul cervello Impatto del caldo sul cervello Nel mese di luglio 2016, Boston ha subito un’onda di caldo con temperature medie diurne di 92 gradi per cinque giorni consecutivi. Alcuni studenti locali in città per l’estate hanno avuto accesso ad alloggi con aria condizionata, mentre altri sono stati costretti a dormire in dormitori più datati senza aria condizionata. Jose Guillermo Cedeño Laurent, all’epoca ricercatore ad Harvard, ha sfruttato questa situazione per studiare l’effetto del caldo, in particolare durante la notte, sulle performance cognitive dei giovani adulti. Ha condotto test su 44 studenti prima, durante e dopo l’onda di caldo, evidenziando chiaramente l’impatto
