AAAAAH! This is such exquisite writing! And last touched over 10 years ago. My heart breaks knowing i shall not be able to finish this tale. Please come back, PoaB! Please?

(snickers)

Erik's dark humor and sarcasm really leaves me giggling. Only HE would say such things casually

This fic is so incredibly brilliant, and it's so much a pity that it's unfinished... I absolutely adore the plotline, it's brilliant, not at all clichéd, realistic - I can see all of them behaving like this... The humor makes me laugh aloud, I love hurt/comfort, Erik being a horse whisperer is so cool (that's what you call it in English, right?), I'm Hungarian so I'm a bit sorry Erik didn't drag Christine here... XD I'm normally an E/C shipper, but if you stary true to canon in that Raoul really is a good man, and if Christine really is in love with him, then a plotline where Erik stays a friend is what I wish for.

"Then maybe you'll have more than one friend in this world. Though if I didn't know any better, I'd say that scares you." 'It did scare me.'

Just love it...

Anyway, I'm putting this and your other stor on alert, in case there are miracles... ;)

Great- as an R/C shipper, former E/C shipper, and Erik sympathizer, it's great to see this stuff out here. (Sorry for this vague comment; I'm new at this- you can delete this now. :) )

Whoowhoo! 101 reviews! Be proud!

Anyhoo, it has been an obscenely long time since your last update...Please do work on this, it is by far one of the best fics I've read!

Eagerly Awating the Next Installment

Wow, the screaming horse symbolism is haunting!

Lol i ADORED this part, brilliant writing!

"The Persian was speechless for several moments as he tried to take in the scene. 'What on earth has happened here?' he demanded in his heavily accented French.

'Having a damn tea party, Nadir, what does it look like we are doing?' Erik spat".

lol i cant believe that i actually put that quote in "proper citation" i need a LIFE! ;)

I am extremely impressed. Your characterization is BLOODY BRILLIANT! As one of the many who usually (but not maliciously) cry "FOP" around Raoul, I was delighted to see great characterization!

Yay for three-dimensional characters! ;)

"I hope everyone loves a good wounded!Erik, because pain and suffering always equals a good time..."

I think so as well D

I also think a murdering Erik equally great.

Sorry, but I've no useful comments. I'll probably not review again till the end, just save up comments for one big squee-fest at the end )

Yes, so anyways, I'm still liking the story so far. _

This is the first that made me laugh:

“And what is the cause of your pallor, Monsieur?” she asked.

“Disfigurement.”

“Erik…”

“Auditions.”

I smiled at previous things, but I was mostly occupied with figuring out the identity of the point-of-view character.

Anyways, from this beginning, I doubt it will be the last )

I am just ignoring the OOC-ness. As I said, I was a bit confused and wavering on whether or not it was really the Phantom's point of view or an original/minor character for most of the chapter but I'm quite willing to go where ever you want to take this story )

Highly amusing. The banter between Erik and Nadir is quite well done. Please do not discontinue this story!

Yay, another chapter! The wait was ghastly, but the plot and writing is spectacular as ever. I can't wait to see what you have in store. I especially love the interaction between Erik and Nadir. They are too wonderful and witty. Please don't hesitate to write more.

Great new chapter. I can't remember when Christine said Erik left without saying goodbye or apologizing, so I'm a little bit confused as to why Erik's apologizing. I guess I'll have to back track and find that part so it'll make sense. :-) Please update soon!

Once again your dark humor made me laugh, and your excellent writing style made me green with envy.

My favorite part:

“Well,” I began as I moved slowly toward the window. “I had considered going there in the middle of the night – one o’clock, if you need specifics – kidnapping her and running away to make her the star of some Hungarian opera, but then I thought…why not just go and have dinner. Perhaps look at a horse while I am on the property.”

“That’s a terribly normal choice of plans.”

“Yes, but the first one is what dreams are made of.”

Congrats, and keep up the good work, Senorita.
