Broken » by
Trying Not To Love You
Origin story to movie-specific Erik, who never left the Opera House. No, this has no script/libretto (apart from maybe a name?). Possibly a few nods to Leroux & Kay, but my Erik is Gerik – 100%, blue eyes & all. I couldn't resist resurrecting Philippe, because he practically writes himself & never shuts up in my head (he's also my Beta's favourite character, which he would adore).
