I like this. Thank you for making A Normal Life fav.

This is how the movie should've ended!

cool

Beautiful, thats how it should have ended.

Hello! Er, I did read the story, and I think it was amazing, brilliant, and genius (synonyms, I know, but they all fit). I just wanted to thank you so much for your lengthy review on my story. It has helped me so much in the long run for making sure things make sense. On another note, my story is going to be rather odd. I'm planning on writing a sequel which will go, in a way, back in time. The current story is more an explanation of Erik's childhood or rather his teenage years. The sequel would follow how Erik got from where my story ends to the story of the Phantom in the Paris Opera House, elaborating on the things only vaguely mentioned in Leroux. Thank you for the review, you are a great writer yourself, much better than my meager self. To clarify, Myra is her own entity and character rather than a modern representation of Christine. She is actually Christine's older sister seperated at birth (and I know I'm treating this too much like a corny soap opera by doing this) but don't tell anyone. _~

*applaudes* Lovely, lovely story. Not a drop of PotO movie in it! I'm so happy to have found someone who is Anti-ALW PotO movie in the midst of all these twitty n00bez who think Butler is a god. Michael Crawford's where it's at _ I mean, the deformity on Gerry's Phantom looks like bad sun poisoning! Sorry, ranted, better now.

Love your PotO work!

Interesting. More than a bit out of character for both, though.

Good use of details, i.e. her ballet injuries on her feet.

Your use of modern slang was extremely jarring. "Gonna," and "we 'did it'" and things like that. Might want to avoid modern anachronistic speech when writing a period piece like this.

I liked the explanation at the beginning, how she pushed Raoul away and returned to Erik. That part was nice; also, his severity when she returned was very much in character.

Aside from that, though, I think you departed too much from the real characterizations to be really believeable.

I loved it!

Aw. That was sweet! Very nice!

Aw...That was really sweet. *adds to favorites*

Lovely story, much better ending than Christine/Raoul.

beautiful *smile*
The most famous couple in the Phantom of the Opera deserve such a beutifull telling of their powerful never ending love affair.
Very good!

Woo-hoo! I love it! This is so awsome. I'm a big Erik-Christine fan, and I can't stand the thought of Christine and Raoul ending up together. I like how you stayed on the exact line of the musical, so for all of us who've seen it, we can imagine this is what happened. You didn't change the story, just added on to it. That's perfect! Yay!

Oh my god... This was very well done! I favor your work.
