I think Erik is one of those rare people who know how to present themselves to the fullest.
Some may call it charisma, but his probably stems down from his complex about the deformity.
He's such a fascinating creature...

Thank you for your comment!

He always has been and always will be...I think that's why I haven't left that story or grown out of it like I did with LOTR or Harry Potter or most of my favorite animes. ^^ ERIK RULES!! Period. No arguments.

And you're welcome!

I know exactly what you mean - I feel the same way.
He's like ... an onion, layers after layers of complexity.

...Erik is glaring at me.
Apparently he doesn't like onions.

Um...Erik rules!

He looks so casual, and yet he knows he has us all in the palm of his hand.

The Phantom reigns over the Opera and all is well in the world, indeed.
I would gladly dance to his tune, even with two left feet!

I like the notes falling from his hand and the way the words hang in the air. Good effect. Great job!

Thank you for your comment!
I find his note writing very curious - it is a line of communication that he just cannot seem to sever.
True, it is necessary for running his theatre (yes, his, thankyouverymuch).
But writing letters are very personal, as opposed to, say, a disembodied voice, which you know he and his ventriloquism skill can accomplish.
This is why I love the man - he's so complicated!

I agree with you there. Notes are more personal. Which is why I still send letters instead of just Emails. (Don't worry, I am not commanding them to something and should the demand be ingnored and all of that...Well...some of them but they know what it means.) And it was very important for Erik to send the letters. If he was just the voice, then they would have called the Ghostbusters or Ghost hunters. (::giggles:: Which just inspired me.) But yea. One thing we can all agree on is both the complexity and love for Erik.
(I am sure I had a point in here too...Somewhere...)

I love how the paper is blurred. It creates a great effect with the perspective!

Three guesses to where I got my username from.

I do enjoy his sinister, condescending side, too.
He is a tyrant, after all.

I find it quite crazy I know that entire note off by heart I love Erik and his notes. Especially when they annoy Carlotta...

Forget the entire note, I pretty much know the entire show verbatim.
Comes from seeing the show more times than I care to admit...

I find Erik's note writing rather cute, especially since he's noted for his not-so-stellar penmanship.
Maybe that's why so many of them go unheeded - because no one can read them.

Thanks for your comment!

Haha yeah I'm a little like that - give me a line and I'll carry on singing for five minutes I've only seen it...3 times I think.

Yeah! Poor Erik, you're probably right. Sometimes I'm surprised they can read any of them.

I don't know which is worse, Erik's hard-to-decipher-childish squiggle, or Leo's elegantly-flowing-and-impossible-to-read cursive.
