    Summary

    Set before and during the 2004 movie. My origin story for 2004 movie-specific Erik, who never left the Opera House once rescued and hidden by Mme. Giry. This is my version of how he and Christine met and fell in love (NOT when she was a child) and tumbled headlong into the inevitable tragedy of Final Lair. This has no script/libretto (apart from maybe one or two absolutely necessary words). This explores the motivations and emotions BEHIND what happened. The scenes around what was on screen. There may be a few nods to Leroux and Kay, but my Erik is Gerik – 100%, blue eyes and all. But I couldn’t resist resurrecting Philippe, because he practically writes himself and never shuts up in my head (he’s also my Beta’s favourite character, which he would adore). Plus he makes Raoul seem like less of a dick. Sorry Patrick - love you, truly - but movie Raoul makes me want to beat his oblivious, arrogant, dismissive head against the nearest brick wall!

    Summary

    Loosely based on the 1990 Arthur Kopit play/miniseries but darker/sexier - mixing in a bit of Leroux/Kay.

    Begins when Christine sings at the bistro with the company. Takes a different turn. A whole lot of sexual tension, angst, lies, half truths... different takes on Philippe, Gerard and Raoul.

     

    Got back into the Phandom recently and fell in love all over again. This is my first fic. I hope you like it and want me to continue.

    Summary

    She stirred to the most severe pain in her head. Groaning, she placed a hand on the back of her head. The room didn’t brighten at all - but the lights were wavering because of the candlelight.

    A now-familiar cloak was draped over here as a blanket. She fingered the velvet lining and looked around: a shadowed figure hung across the room, and she settled him with a tired glare.

    “Was the strike to my head really necessary?” She groaned.

    The silhouette shifted slightly, recoiling a little, she thought perhaps. “I did not want you to scream.”

    She used a nearby wall to get to her feet, plumping out the bustle of her skirt. Her head ached sharply, and it made her irritable. “Then you shouldn’t be grabbing women in dark alleys, monsieur.”

     

    A self indulgent OFC phantom fic that has been eating my brain in lockdown for three weeks. Too many descriptions of fashion, too much research in places and wild inaccuracies in others.

    Summary

    Paris, 1880s. Christine Daaé came to the Conservatoire to study music, not to haunt it. But when her quiet songs in a riverside hotel draw the attention of an unseen patron, her life begins to blur between the living and the listening. Letters arrive without senders, melodies echo through the walls, and the city itself seems to lean closer to hear her sing.

    But her patron’s past is not as silent as he believes, and the echoes that find her voice will carry farther than either of them intends.

    A reimagining of The Phantom of the Opera set in its original era.

    Summary

    "She felt the strong impulse to look beneath his mask. She wanted to know who he truly was, and seeing only half his face felt... unsatisfying. After last night, when he had brought her here and shown her his "Music of the Night," the mask felt misplaced. As if it upheld a distance that was no longer needed. But she resisted that urge."

     

    What if Christine hadn’t torn off the mask?

    This story begins after the events of “Music of the Night” and offers a fix-it take on the original tale. Christine and Erik slowly begin to understand each other outside the shadows of the opera house. Their relationship develops step by step, shaped by trust, conflict, and growing affection. Alongside them, other key figures—Raoul, Meg, Madame Giry, Nadir, and Darius—play important roles as they each navigate the changes brought by Christine’s choice.
    A character-driven exploration of love, redemption, and second chances.

    Smut can be skipped, I'll put it in the chapter notes.
