Dear goodness. Hello, tears. Truly love of the most exquisite kind.
Definitely my favorite chapter of my favorite novel.
the phantom of the opera, gaston leroux
my version of book Erik
without the mask
He's a depressed mess here 😊
At first I wanted him to look as close to the book as possible, but then I just couldn't resist giving him this haircut and changing a few other things because why not.
I plan on drawing other characters and more of Erik too, so hopefully I'll have enough time lol.
‘Oh, tonight, I gave you my soul! [...]’ ‘Your soul is a beautiful thing, child,’ replied the man’s grave voice, ‘and I thank you. No emperor ever received so fair a gift. The angels wept tonight.’

May your day be psychologically torturous and filled with existential dread.
You’re still the best.

“Normality is a paved road: It’s comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow.”
— Vincent van Gogh
This is literal perfection.
My take on ALW Phantom meets Leroux Phantom.
Erik, you can't make a love confession less intense by saying:
"I love you. We don't have to talk about it. Actually, I won't talk about it. Don't bring it up. Unless you want to. No, you don't want to. Let's just do music."
@cuddlesforerik Thank you for tagging me!
Yay, this one is about BOOKS. Let’s see…
1. Currently finishing up The Count of Monte Cristo. (Took nine hundred pages for the story to actually start, but dear goodness, it’s so good.)
2. Next will be The Gentle Spirit by Fyodor Dostoevsky (my favorite author to ever exist). This is one of the few stories of his I haven’t read yet, so I’m very excited and have been preparing my soul to be crushed once more.
3. Les Misérables is a must. Finished Notre-Dame de Paris a while back, and I’m in love with his writing style. Truly a master at his art.
4. Bleak House by Dickens. Because nothing that man writes is bad.
5. The Turn of the Screw. A recommendation from my sister, so we’ll see.
6. And finally, Fear and Trembling by Kierkegaard. I started it a while ago, but I was too busy to give it the attention it deserves (30 pages in and could already tell it was a masterpiece), so I’m going to start from the beginning now that I have more time to absorb it properly.

Was just blessed with a trip to this masterpiece of a building. Indeed the most beautiful place I have ever stepped foot in. It IS Erik. Haven’t understood or loved that novel more than now.
Palais Garnier.
