How is the relationship between Erik and Christian and Raul?

As in what is their relationship in fantomestein? I need to make a chart one of these days! But the long and short of it is: Erik and Christine have an attempt at a father/daughter-esque relationship (albeit a weird, sad, strained and macabre one). It’s complicated and messy and co-dependant—but it is platonic. Christine is in love with Raoul and vice versa (not platonic). Erik is primarily scared of Raoul right now and probably couldn’t put a name to what he feels. The Daroga and Erik…ahhh that remains to be seen.

Total aside: but The "Christian" spelling sent me and I think I love him.

Christines are powerful as is, but with the power of 1800s era male privilege on his/her side? Geez, an unstoppable force.

the training montage in crossroads re-ignited a headcanon i had of geralt waking up and doing gymnastics, performing kickflips and mid-air spins around on a fencepost outside an hour before sunrise to ‘limber up,’ and bleary-eyed dandelion wrapping himself up in a blanket to be like "heyyy... what the hell are you doing 💖"

my friend said they saw a spoiler about tim and sasha and asked me "do tim and sasha...?" i gaslighted so hard it wasn't even funny. i genuinely thought he saw a major spoiler regarding those two and then suddenly he says. "do tim and sasha hook up?"

I really like seeing people talk about ballet because it’s the one sport that seems to get a really weird uhhhh “mythological”/magical treatment. Like what if people did the same thing with baseball or something. Thr batter is in charge of sending a love letter to the heavens(the ball)

Not to sound like an angry old man but one of the things that bothers me most both when I’m teaching my kiddos and when I’m in class with adult beginners is that like there is etiquette in ballet class that’s just archaic and shitty, there’s etiquette in ballet that’s just about courtesy/tradition, and then there’s etiquette that’s there for safety

And ppl tend to pick up on the second pretty quickly both as kids and adults—like thanking the teacher/pianist, being quiet when the teacher is talking, etc.—but they’re really bad at the third category, which is imo the most important

And like obv some of that is because they haven’t been taught but, frankly, a lot of ballet etiquette is learned through observation—noticing that, hey, if all the experienced dancers are starting this combination from the corner in the same formation, maybe I should, too. But people (both kids and adults!) just…don’t seem to pay very much attention to that side of things?? Even though it can literally save you from or give you a broken ankle depending on if you’re doing it correctly or not??

And I get that when you’re focusing really hard on understanding the steps or combination, less of your mind is on spacing/not getting tackled by your neighbor—but people (mostly adults for this one) get like kind of uppity about it?? When they’re? Wrong???

warren going to an american university would be pure chaos. he'd be the movie cliche exchange student from england who just wants to spread mischief , flirt a little , but also needs to make it to his 10 am philosophy class on time for once.
