This story started out very good, and I enjoyed the first few chapters very much, but it has shifted from being an Erik/Raoul fic to a hate on Christine fic. Her only purpose here is to be made as despicable as possible and to keep the main two characters apart. Characters are much more interesting if they are complex- neither wholly good nor wholly evil- and these characters are unfortunately very simple. The story is all very repetitive. Erik and Raoul also haven't spoken in a while. I miss them. I think you got carried away with the angst and your own opinions on the characters that they became quite flat and you stopped paying so much attention to the plot. I don't know if I will finish it, but I do still believe you have talent, if the first few chapters are anything to go by. I will have to read more of your work to see.

Lu,
I love your short stories. They are very good and concise. Your longer stories are too slow paced and convoluted for my taste.
You are a very good writer. Just reel it in and get more to the point.

Aww so sweet that they finally got together, with Erik maskless! Plus, Christine survived to be a better woman. That's good :)

There is another alternative explanation for the discrepancy in the number of hits. On mobile devices its difficult to hit the arrow for the latest chapter, so many people click on the story and go to chapter one before going to the latest chapter

Absolutely loved it! I hope you realize just how much of a Raoul/Erik genius you are, because no one does it better than you!

3 Oh my. Too much fluff. Adore it! -fansself- Thank you~ I needed that epilogue badly.

Ahem. Your style of writing could be trying at times cause you characters tend to over analyze themselves but I still love their thought process nonetheless. I also noticed that you like to use certain words repeatedly but I can't for the life of me remember which were there. Other than that, I hope you continue writing! This ship need more stories like this. All the best~

This story was great I can't really say perfect becuase I did find somthing that I thought was abit rush but great I can do. Amzaing as well but I am not suprised like your other story well the ones that I have this story was amzaing it had love but you didn't make it too far fenched. How I love your storys and I look forward to the ones that you will write and too the ones that I still have to read. Oh but I must say you forgot to let Erik find the violinist or you might have let him not find out, it just seem pointless to say and then just to forget about it. I am sorry if I sound like I am flaming I am not trying to.

Beautiful!

... Meanie. v.v

You had my hopes up, then you stabbed them with a cane-sword and slit their throat, and THEY didn't survive, so why'd Christine? (My ramblings make no sense. Ignore them. This sentence counts as a ramble. Ignore it.)

Christine's... Dead...?

... Ding Dong, the witch is dead!

Which old witch?

The wicked witch!

Amazing story! Loved every minute of reading it! Great job! :3

Loved the ending. Good job. I also liked how you've got Giry and Henri as the sort of parental figures. Keep up the great work!

Obviously you did complete this in the end without a review from me but all the same; I'm reading it now! :)

OMG i LOVE this fic its one of the best i have read! thank you!

Loved the story, the only thing that disappointed me was that Erik never really found out that Raoul was the one playing the violin. other then that amazing job.
