I think it's a great story. The only ything is that, erik is obssesed with christine and if she killed her self he would be extremley upset. He probley wouldnt just "sigh saldy" and get on with it. But otherwise i think it's wonderful.

*sorry for misspellings

At first I imagined this was just after he had struck her, and yet it seems like so much more... and then in paragraph six where you first make it obvious, I thought "Oh, he didn't. He just couldn't!" but indeed he HAS and I think you've done a wonderful job with his guilt, his remorse, his denial and his final thought to keep her. Reminds me of a short story by Faulkner, except I like this one better because it has my favorite characters. Very true to the character, I think, the way he moves from love to rage and back to love. I think it's wonderful and I think perhaps I'll add you to my favorites...

Oh, so sad! But nonetheless it was a great fic and I look forward to reading more from you.

I think that you captured Erik perfectly! And I love the conclusion, because that is exactly what he would feel if that happened.

Next time, maybe, try to go into a little more detail of what happened and why. If you did that, it would be a little easier to understand.

Other than that, it was great, and I loved it. "In the Darkness" is going in under my favourites.

Cheers!

Really good job. Fantastic writing.

i thought that story was sad and i thought it was kind of the phantom to wrap her in bandages.I thought she was dead when she didnt good hes willing to get rid of his identity of the phantom

Very good job! A thing you could improve upon is making Erik more noticibly sad. I take it that you were going for heartbroken and too sad to show much emotion? Perhaps he was in a little bit of denial? If you were going for that you could devote a couple sentences to saying how he felt like as he stared at her. He must have been expierancing great pain that you just needed to express more.

The closing line was really good conclusion. And the story wasn't boring at all! I just wish to know why he had hurt/raped her and what events led up to that.

Good job!

Not bad...actually, I like this fic. So what happened? Did he rape her in his rage?

it was pretty boring. you wrote erik ok but the story was lame.
