Gracias y disculpen por la espera. Aquí les dejo el tétrico solo de Hades.

I love how the flower accidentally drops, but he stays in character and makes a thing of it.

I absulotely love the way he goes "Freedom? FREEDOM!?"

like, "The audacity, after all ive given them, after how they have been, have they forgotten it all?"

Personally this song is one of my favourites of the musical, because it humanises Hades, but in a way that still makes him intimidating and sympathetic. In a moment of raw desperation and fury he set the best laid plan for Orpheus, a trapped contract that was doomed to fail. in the end as he calms down he realises what he has done, but it has to be done, for he knows how to make Orpheus fail, because he knows himself, he knows the fear of being alone. He knows that they will most likely fail, but he "let them try".

"she's out of sight, and he's out of his mind" i love that line sm

[esshor.]

Fuck. This may sound petty. But I really wish they weren’t allowed to clap in between any of the songs. It just disrupts the flow of the storyline and the built-up emotional vibe. It just disrupts the believability of the narrative.
