Here’s your triple flip off @thunderpoolisawesome hehe

Idk why I’ve put this much effort into this stupid shitpost

As usual this comes from the Discord tomfoolery

Yes, there is a story behind elf Erik! I also call him DnD Erik, because he originates from that universe. I can tell you everything about him, if you want me to.

For now, here is a sketch of Erik in Persia that I made while listening to class.

And another elf Erik sketch.

“Y’AINT”

LOL sorry, so they were suposed to say different stuff, but a friend of the phantom discord server kinda came up with that, and i just can’t...its so much better LOL. So there it is, a little comic strip, with a very very tired Christine, and a very annoying Erik (so, just the usual)

ok, so, what do you think they should be talking about??? i really wanna know. maybe i will make another version 

also, do this look blurred for you in your desktop???

Terrible quality, I'm trying a new editor) Young Erik from Persia?...

Imagine

(Set in Leroux/Kay POTO)

Erik and Christine, after revealing himself to her, somehow maintain a semi-normal relationship. Every night, she goes down to his home by the lake and they spend their nights singing together, reading, telling each other stories from their past. It’s not completely normal- not when one of them has a hole for a nose- but it’s a comfortable routine.

Then, one night, Christine goes down to Erik’s home only to find that it’s empty. Assuming he’s still out and about doing whatever fake ghosts do, she simply grabs the book she had started the night before and makes herself comfortable on the couch. A few hours pass by- according to the mantle clock, at least- before Erik suddenly bursts into the room. In his arms are dozens of different bags and packages filled with a mix of ink, quills, parchment, etc. All Christine can do is stare at him in shock while surveying everything in his arms. She looks at him as if to say, ‘What the hell, Erik?’.

Erik lookes at his angel, then to his immense amount of purchases, then back to her before saying, “I got paid today.”

Back at it again with more Kerik!

So, Kay split the book up into perspectives and I thought: “Hey! What if each POV was introduced by a cover of who is speaking?”

Thus, this idea spawned. I had originally though to have it just be only a photo but when I got the chapter idea, I changed my game plan.

My favorite thing about researching translations is discovering that adaptations I would never have suspected are just out there, translated into different languages when I wouldn’t have expected them to ever leave their small sphere of original influence.

Like shit, I would never have guessed there was a Hebrew edition of Sam Siciliano’s The Angel of the Opera or a Croatian version of The Phantom of Manhattan, but there they are.  (Probably should have seen the Persian edition of Susan Kay’s Phantom coming, though.)

Friendly reminder that Erik is not a psychopath. He's a man destroyed by the world's hatred and his own misery. What surprise does it make that a person who spent all his life as an outcast (even better in ALW version even better, lived all his life in a damn basement) has no social skills and mind of a child? That's why he acts the way he does. He knows no other way even if he wanted to.
