I’m gonna be real generic and go with BTS. But I also listen to EXO, VIXX, Dean, Zico, Blackpink, and so far I like what Stray Kids have done (even if they aren’t technically a group). But I listen to a ton of other genres of music too, so...this isn’t everything lol. What about you?

And EXO, VIXX, KARD, Super Junior, Highlight, Drug Restaurant, FTIsland... Though the last two are rock bands but still count I guess? But same, I listen to all kinds of music, really.

uhhhhh can’t say I really have one??? Idk, I have two spare/study blocks this year so it’s pretty relaxing. For the most part. I guess Art is my favourite, since I’m in a fine arts school. We’re working on self-portraits which is pretty fun.

(People usually don’t lol) They’re calked One OkRock. As you can probably tell from the title, they’re a rock band. They’re from Japan, and they’re super popular there. Everyone knows them. Which is why all my Japanese friends are jealous that I got meet and greet tickets. I was pretty lucky.

that's it that's Leporello's thoughts on the matter he's either annoyed, in love with, or terrified of the Don on a daily basis. it's a constant cycle

he's a very confused cat, and very contradictory to himself. he keeps trying to get the Don to stop doing all the horrible things he does but he also keeps that giant friggin list of his master's conquests for no legitimate reason? and he's tried to quit his job but the Don baits him back into it again even though the Don's done that for god-knows how long and you'd think it would wear off? it's a very strange yet intriguing dynamic the two of them have

Creeeepy. It's a classic story of the leech and the emotional bank the leach drains from. The leech keeps clinging, and the emotional bank can't shake it. Very well done, imo. A very intriguing dynamic, to say the least

honestly in Ensemble they play off each other almost like an abusive couple, because as I said the Don now verbally manipulates his servant around a bit more. so you have the occasions where Leporello tries to leave because the Don almost killed him again only for the Don to tell Leporello he didn't mean it and that he won't do it again- and of course for Leporello to believe him. It becomes almost as disturbing as everything else about the Don...

It's really sad.

(Well, I'm always looking for new music ^w^ I know how it is when nobody 1) Likes your music, or 2) Doesn't care what music you like. I treat others how I want to be treated, lol. May sound lame, but whatever, hahahaha)

Leporello has the lingering notion in the back of his head that it isn't right and he tries to tell the Don this, but overall he feels it's his duty to let it continue- after all, it's a taboo when a servant challenges their master too much...

Who knows what the Don would've done if he did? It's a precarious relationship

Who knows what the Don would've done if he did? It's a precarious relationship All of the times Leporello calls out the Don, he's then immediately almost killed by the Don's sword afterward and silenced. There's a bit really early on where the Don tells Leporello about how his committing murder was the Commander's fault, and Leporello quips "But Donna Anna, did she ask for anything?" And the Don then proceeds to thrust his sword at him. Leporello is walking on eggs

Riiiight Since it was onstant vigilence over his words around the Don, I can see why he's so quiet.

The Commander's fault when the Don was the one who caused the Commander to have to set up a fight in the first place. Makes sense Even in the opera if you listen to him he's got a rather quiet and jumpy voice compared to say, the Don, or Elvira, or anyone else (and when he's singing at the same time someone else is he tends to be softer and fading into the background a bit more, like in the last scene where Elvira's calling out the Don and Leporello's quietly repeating her). Anything he says could set the Don on edge...

I do seem to remember not being able to tell when he was singing, except for that one solo part before the opera and the part where he's telling the story of Don's "conquests".

I'm really optimistic, which weirds people out because I'm also a realist? And I'm like, I can be both, people. Being an optimistic idealist is bad, lol

Totally the Commander's fault that the Don was psychologically torturing his daughter for his own pleasure Leporello generally sneaks below everyone else or repeats their tone. It's only in his arias that he really gets much attention musically, otherwise he's just a supplement to everyone else around him I tend to be an optimistic pessimist- it's very strange how my mind works with the kind of thing. I don't hope for the best, I hope for the worst because I think it'll turn out better than that and I'll be pleasantly surprised. I'm very weird about it

And I distinctly remembering it was all by force too. "Seduction" my foot Yeah, must be why I don't remember anything he sang, lol. Good thing for him, because I seem to remember what he said about the Don in the beginning being rather... derogatory, to say the least
