seven years?? Poor MA!

Heh, yeah, I feel like for most of these people except for Ulrike I just kind of want them to get any happiness out of life they can whatsoever, since things suck for them so much of the time :(

BTW, if Shaffer had been writing about them as a central focus, I'm guessing Leopold would have gotten the Salieri part...

Hee! Although it's hard for me to see Joseph as Mozart; he was a smart guy but he... well, seems to have been better at theory than practice :) (I mean! I am a theorist and not an experimentalist at all myself! But...)

Thank you for the link, that was awesome.
