The contrast between the two Coppelius is really funny because in the book we have that scary alchemist man who looks like Faust and Mephistopheles decided to have a baby, who is said to live on the moon where his birds babies are waiting to be fed children's eyes and is literally like a nightmare come true...

And in the ballet it's the silly old man, everyone in the village thinks he's crazy with his experiments but even when he tries to use Frantz soul (or literal life) he's just ridiculous or almost cute when Swanilda is tricking him !

Both of them are very dear to me, they should hold hands and kiss, something like that

Back on the ever after high obsession. Ima describe my oc and post her later.

Her name is Ena Mel. The daughter of Coppelia.

A porcelain windup doll brought to life, though with several imperfections.

She can't move her face and her movements and quite rigid. She needs to be wound up again to be able to move. And she can't speak whatsoever (though she does communicate through sign language)

Despite all this, she is still a ballerina and loves to dance.

She's best friends with Duchess, and she often joins in with alot of her schemes. They both don't have very happy endings to their stories, so they both are a little resentful of the rebels that do and yet throw that all away.

She's quite shy but a huge romantic. Often reading love stories. She really likes attention but can't hold it due to her aforementioned inability to speak, emote, and sometimes move.

Prob gonna do some comics with her because I love her to death

Swanilda (disguised as Coppelia) jokingly trying to hit Coppelius with a sword is too funny, poor old man is always getting bullied for the entirety of the ballet
