#erik forever

In celebration of the birthday of this most-beautiful building (a few days late, I know), I upload these photos I took on my recent visit to its majestic halls. Nowhere else have I seen such beauty nor felt such awe; it is a sanctuary for divine art and a fitting home for the Angel of Music.

Words cannot express my love for it, so I won’t even try.

Let me only say: Gaston Leroux NAILED its description in that book, both visually and atmospherically. That building IS Erik.

Wh—….

….

ERIK?

It would be a lie to say I understood particularly much of the plot, but this figure from the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris 2024 was apparently the Phantom of the Opera.

I have been plagued with a vision and must be lobotomized.

your krakoa era cherik art has altered my brain chemistry

more krakoa era is to come from me my friend so i worry for your brain

[manichewitz]

people who only want gay characters to be played by gay actors just dont understand the appeal of two ostensibly straight actors playing two ostensibly straight characters yet having so much chemistry together that they actually want to make out with each other more than just keep with whatever weird subtextual thing is already going on

This…This is PERFECT. Beautiful, beautiful symbolic representation of their relationship in the book. Like, this IS the book. and i’m picky. They are gorgeous and Leroux-accurate!! Bravo.

My heartbeat is a symphony by EriksDesdemona That pencil work, though.

The best of the best.

"Why, you love him! Your fear, your terror, all of that is just love and love of the most exquisite kind, the kind which people do not admit even to themselves." ... "The kind that gives you a thrill, when you think of it."

Magneto promised Leech would never be scared again. X-MEN ‘97 — Remember It (S01E05)

Ian McKellan saying, “Did you know that Magneto was gay?” is so unbelievably important to me.

Why does nobody talk about that jaw movement McCavoy does when playing Charles? He juts it forward and opens his mouth in weird ways and it makes the character more interesting. Eyebrows too. He just moves his entire face in a particular way and I love ittt
