I am very proud to announce that I have been in touch with two people involved with the original 1976 production of Ken Hill's Phantom of the Opera: John Hartoch (Raoul) and Claire Lyth (Design) who have provided me with these photos! For those unaware, this production is not the same as the later Ken Hill adaptation that would play from 1985 onward: It even had a different score, which has been described as "more contemporary" as opposed to the opera music the reworked version used. Photos of this production have never been available publicly online before, atleast not in any circles I've seen. Some of these are freshly scanned. I am releasing these photos ahead of a documentary on the Ken Hill Phantom I eventually plan on releasing. I hope you look forward to it and enjoy these photos.

So here she is. My imagination of young Silver's love of his life. I had so much fun again drawing all those different emotions and designing this character.

Actually those are not the first images I did of her. I made the first sketches back in 2016. I just updated her a little and created a backstory for her ^____^

Her name is Janet Roughley and on the picture she is 19 years old. She grew up in an orphanage for girls, that she left at the age of 16. Since she has always been a talented singer and musician overall, she started to travel around the Aetherium to perform in different bars, taverns etc. to earn her living. And it is in one of those taverns where she meets the then 21 year old John Silver, who is working there as a bartender and waiter.

Oh, and her species is called "cyonid" btw. Yeah, I just made that up XD

𝄢 Brassed Off (1996)

[lazerswordweilder]

One day, mid way through a meeting, the zeta tube announces the arrival of Batman. Everyone turns to give him a piece of theirs minds for showing up hours late, except he’s barely standing, half his mask ripped off reveals a blue eye that isn’t focused on anything, matted black hair full of blood, he has stubble on his chin and he’s missing a tooth. His hand cluches his stomach as a knife pokes through his fingers he still tries to contain the blood, every breath he takes looks painful and there’s an indent in his ribs that wasn’t supposed to be there, there’s rips all over his suit revealing battered armour underneath, his cloak has long since been torn off and one of his entire boots is missing (along with a sizeable chunk of flesh), and J’onn cringes over at the pain and hunder and thirst and pain coming from his mind, iced over by vauge shock.

(Sorry about any typos, might write a fic on this I dunno)

32. My Babies (Part 2) || One Day At A Time

AMBER’S THOUGHTS:

“I'm going to show him how much he means to me!“

VALENTINE’S DINNER (CONTINUATION): Amber kissed him deeply. “Ready for our night?” Derek asked. “If it means enjoying your presence, I’m always ready…” Amber said. “Good to know…” Derek smiled. “How long were you planning this?” Amber asked. “For some time…” Derek said. “You actually thought that I wouldn’t be here in Valentine’s Day and your birthday?” “Well, you have work to do…” Amber said. “You’re more important!” Derek kissed her forehead. “I can manage myself…” “You’re getting too tired…” Amber said. “Don’t try to convince me otherwise.” “That happens because I’m doing everything, I love…” Derek said smiling. “But that doesn’t mean you can stop taking care of yourself…” Amber said. “You need to rest, eat properly…” Derek kisses her and they stay that way for a long time, he did not want to talk about how tired he was, the only thing he wanted was to spend some time with Amber. “We should sit down…” Derek said smiling. “I wanted to stay hugging you a little more…” Amber said. Amber heard Derek chuckle and she could not be happier. “You know we’re not alone, right?” Derek asked. Amber stepped away so fast and started looking for anyone but she did not find anyone, until a chef got out of the kitchen. “The dinner is ready…” The chef said smiling. “Sit down and give me a second…” They waited until he disappeared in the kitchen again. “Poor guy he should be with his wife.” Amber said. “We’re only here for an hour and a half!” Derek said. “I have other things planned during this dinner.” “Like what?” Amber asked curious. “It’s a surprise…” Derek said pointing to the table. Derek helped her sit and before he went to his seat, he put a necklace in her neck, which made her gasp with surprise. “How did…” Amber tried to say. “A beautiful surprise for a beautiful woman!” Derek said before going to sit in front of her. “It matches the ring I gave you!” “It’s beautiful…” Amber grabbed his hand. “I don’t have anything for you…” “You gave me everything I need…” Derek said smiling. “I need you to stop being so perfect…” Amber said. “You’re making me look bad.” “I’m perfect for you and that’s all that matters.” Derek said. The chef got out of the kitchen with a few plates in each hand. “Here I base each plate on the indications you gave, I hope both of you enjoy it” The chef places the plates in front of Amber and Derek. “If you need anything ring the bell.” He left them alone again and Amber was very curious. “How did you make that happen?” Amber pointed to the kitchen. “I have a lot of connections, you know that.” Derek smiles. “Try it I tried to make an experiment.” “What?” Amber said surprise looking at her plate. “Do you trust me?” Derek said. “I’m thinking about it…” Amber tried to smell the food in her plate. Derek started smiling before grabbing her fork, picked a piece of food and tried to feed her. “You’re lucky that I love you!” Amber said before letting Derek feed her. “I know….” Derek said smiling. “I love you too!” Amber finally tasted the food while her eyes were locked on Derek’s and the food was so good that she smiled so hard. “Oh my God… you have to taste it!” Amber said before seeing Derek picking up his fork to taste the food. . “No, I’ll feed you…” Derek looked at her surprised. “What? You fed me, so I can feed you…” Amber said. “It’s valentine’s day so I want to take care of you too and show you what you mean to me.” Derek tested the food that she fed him and smiled at her, he couldn’t stop looking at her eyes. “I need to confess something….” Derek said. “Something’s wrong?” Amber asked. “I failed you…” He said ashamed. “Hey…” Amber took his hand. “What happened?” “I told Mark that you were pregnant…” Derek avoided her eyes. Amber didn’t know he would feel so guilty, she got up her seat a pulled him from his seat and made him look at her. “I’m the one who should be sorry…” Amber admitted. “I told him first, I needed you to have someone to talk about all this” Amber was so focused in his eyes that she could see all his confusion. “I know how hard it is to you not being able to tell him, he’s your best friend…” Amber saw his eyes tearing up. “No, no, no, no…. I’m sorry…” She hugged him and he hid his face in her neck and she could feel his tears in her skin. “It was supposed to bring you joy, not this…” Amber said. “Der…” Derek stayed in her arms for a few more minutes and she couldn’t be more nervous for his reaction, when he stepped back, he just kissed her so sweetly that she had to control herself to no start crying too. “I thought I would lose you twice this week…” Derek admitted it. “Baby, no…” Amber said kissing him again. “Mark insinuated that you were dumping me, and I completely lost my mind!” Derek said. “I was with Cheryl and Emma, they thought I got crazy…” “I can't believe that I helped him prank you but believe me I didn’t knew he insinuated that!” Amber said holding his face near hers. “I love you so much…” Derek admitted. “Afterwards I thought I broke your trust by telling him that you were pregnant…” “Der, listen to me” Amber said. “Even if I didn’t tell him and you ended up telling him first, I would never stop trusting you or leave you because of it.” “You wouldn’t?” Derek asked. “No, what got you so insecure about us?” Amber asked. “Someone told me about the fact that I’m always away from you, it would mess with us and then I started thinking that I’m always away when you need me the most” Derek took a deep breath. “I just feel guilty…” “Look at me…” Amber asked. “I would love nothing more than have you by my side every single moment but we both know that our lifestyle it would be very difficult but that doesn’t change how I feel about you.” Derek smiled shyly to her. “I still love you, you could be in the other side of the world that you still would be the most important person of my life, my love for you is so strong, don’t ever doubt that!” Amber said pecking in on the nose. “I feel the same way, without you, it’s like a part of me is missing” Derek said kissing her passionately. “I wish I could take you home already…” “Well, we just have to eat fast and then I’ll be all yours…” Amber said. “You look gorgeous in that outfit!” Derek said. “You’re finally using it.” “Just for you…” Amber said. “I’m glad.” Derek smiled. Both of them stepped away from each other and went to the dining table to eat their dinner a enjoy each other companies before heading home. THEIR BEDROOM: Derek got upstairs so fast that Amber got a hard time to keep up but when she got to the bedroom's door, she just saw Derek laid on the bed. “Are you tired?” Amber asked. “No…” Derek said. “I just missed our bed so much.” “Really?” Amber asked surprised. “Well, what I missed most was having you in the same bed as me.” Derek admitted. Amber went near him a pulled him up, do now Derek was in front at her looking her deep in the eyes and she took his jacket. “You look so handsome in this suit but let me take care of you…” Amber said smiling. She was so excited to have in front of her again, the moment she started to unbutton his shirt and Derek’s breathing changed immediately. “You’re the best gift I could have…” Amber admitted. “I’m just one of them…” Derek said smiling. “It’s so good to be home!” Amber took his shirt off and she admired his chest before going to his jeans and started to unbuckle his belt, soon after, Derek was naked in front of her. “Come with me…” Amber pulled him to their bathroom. As soon as she closed the door, she could see the depth of Derek’s feelings for her. “We’re going to take a shower and I’m going the enjoy every piece of you” Amber said smiling. “I want to show you how much you mean to me…” “Let me undress you…” Derek asked. “I need to touch you!” Amber smiled and nodded to Derek and without warning he was already next to her taking of her earrings. “You’re so beautiful.” Derek said. Derek grabbed her dress and took it like it was a t-shirt before heading to her bra. “Your mine…” Derek said. “Only mine…” “Yes…” Amber whispered. Within seconds Amber was naked and being pulled to the shower with Derek, he turned on the water and waited until it was at a temperature that both would enjoy and then they got in there. Amber picked the soap and started rubbing Derek chest while he rested his hand on her waist. “I missed this…” Amber said. “Taking care of you!” “I don’t want to leave you again…” Derek said. “It doesn’t matter how we miss each other…” Amber said. “It’s our jobs to be some days here other days there but the only thing that will always remain the same is that no matter what happens or where we are, we’re always be there for each other” “It doesn’t mean I have to like it…” Derek said. “Turn around baby…” Amber said when she was done washing his chest. Derek was with his back to her while she washed his back, after she was done, he felt her hands going down to his manhood. “Don’t…” Derek whispered. Amber freezes. “I won’t be able to keep it together…” Derek said embarrassed. “It has been too long without you.” “Since when do you do that around me?” Amber asked worried. “Babe…” Derek said. “You’re pregnant…” “What does our baby have to do with it?” Amber asked. “Do you remember the last time we were together?” Derek asked. “It was the night where you left me in New York alone.” “Der…” Amber whispered. “I don’t want that to happen again!” Derek admitted. “Is that why when I told you that I was pregnant you didn’t want to make love to me?” Amber whispered insecure. “You thought I would leave you?” “You don’t understand how broken I was when I realized that that you left me in the middle of the night” Derek admitted. “I had prepared a beautiful breakfast, I thought about how I wanted to say goodbye and how I would show you how much you meant to me and that it was just going to be a phase.” “I just couldn’t face you knowing that you couldn't be home with me.” Amber said. “I’m sorry I didn’t think about how you would feel.” Amber couldn’t stop the tears from falling and Derek hugged her. “I’m sorry I didn’t want to hurt you.” Derek said worried. “I’m the one who hurt you…” Amber said hiding her face in his neck. “Can you forgive me?” “I forgave you the moment you picked up the phone that evening.” Derek said hugging her tight. “I heard in your voice the same pain I was feeling.” “I spent a few days without getting out of our bed…” Amber admitted. “I never cried so much.” “Please stop crying…” Derek begged. “I don’t like seeing you like this, and it’s breaking my heart.” “Hold me…” Amber asked. “Gladly…” Derek pressed his body against hers. “As you can confirm, I didn’t stop wanting you, I do want you, more than ever before.” “I know, you should just have talked to me before, I thought you weren’t attracted to me no more because I became pregnant!” “That’s impossible.” Derek blushed. “It has been so long that I’m afraid I might hurt you.” “You would never hurt me…” Amber said stepping away from Derek and tried to look him in the eyes. “I’m having doubts I can control myself.” Derek admitted. “Do you want to go to bed?” Amber asked worried. “No, I still want to wash you…” Derek smiled. “If you don’t mind…” “I don’t baby…” Amber said smiling. “I just want to make you happy and see you smile again…” “So first you finish washing me, then I wash you and then we go to bed!” Derek said full of confidence. When Amber pick the soap again, she took a deep breath. “Everywhere, this time I won’t stop you.” Derek said nervous. “I just want your hands all over me!” Amber smiled before giving him a passionate kiss on the lips. After 10 minutes both were already in bed looking at each other the she just couldn’t stop playing with his hair. “Happy Birthday Baby!” Derek said kissing her deeply on the lips and before stepping away gave her a peck on her nose. “The first of many birthdays together.” “I love you…” Amber smiled completely in love with the man in front of her. “I love you more.” Derek said. “Mr. Hough how can you be so perfect?” Amber asked. “Babe, I’m far away from perfect.” Derek said getting near her. “You’re perfect for me” Amber said before receiving Derek’s lips for another passionate kiss. They kissed a long time before Derek stopped, he was almost on top of her. “I want to make love to you so much…” Derek said with a worried expression on his face. “Make love to me.” Amber whispered in his ear. Derek eyes were so intense looking at her, she thinks he was trying to see if he would find any doubt on her eyes, but she just smiled. “Everything that happens between us is pure love…” Amber said biting his ear. “If you need to be more aggressive in bed, you talk to me, we do it the way you need, you want to know why?” Derek nodded yes and waited for Amber to continue. “Because I trust you…” Amber smiled. “I know I will love it because there’s nothing more that I love than being with you.” Derek didn’t know what to say. “The same way I know if I came to you and asked you to do something because I might need it, I know you would do it, because I was asking you to do it with me.” Amber said. “As long as we do it together, there is nothing we can’t do, we just talk to each other and enjoy each other.” Derek jumped of top of Amber and kissed her neck. “So, I’m going to tell how it’s going to be…” Derek said smiling and gave a peck on her nose. “We’re going to make love the only way we know how, with our heart in it, we will enjoy each other in a way that we never did before because I don’t need to be aggressive to be satisfied, I just need to be loved” “Der…” Amber whispered. “In the future we will see, and you’re right, the important thing is that no matter what we do, we do it together.” Derek smiled. “I thought I was going to lose control with you, but I was mistaken, I was overwhelmed because my love for you was just showing me how much you mean to me and how much I need you.” “I need you too.” Amber admitted. “I love you”. “I’m going to enjoy every single moment with you, I’ll see in your eyes the reflection of mine, where our love will be united, and we will become one.” Derek said biting her neck. “I love you!” Derek and Amber made love for a long time and they found time for a second round, falling asleep right after. IN THE MORNING: Amber had to get out of bed for two times because of her morning sickness and every time she steps out of bed, Derek was right there with her. After a few more hours Amber was looking at Derek while he slept right next to her with his arms around her. She waited for so long to be in his arms again, and this was the best birthday gift she could ever asked for, Amber kissed Derek chest near his heart. Derek opened his eyes slowly. “Are you feeling sick again?” Derek asked worried. “No!” Amber smiled at him. “Can we stay like this forever?” Derek asked. “We can…” Amber smiled and kissed him lightly on the lips. “Thank you.” Derek said. “For what?” Amber played with his hair. “For listening, calming me down…” Derek took a deep breath. “For being everything, I need.” “Always…” Amber smiled at him. “You know I should more secure but when it comes to you I just…” Derek whispered. “I can’t think straight…” “You know between you and me, you’re the gorgeous dancer that everyone thinks doesn’t have a heart and is a pure playboy, but I only see my Derek.” Amber smiled. “My boyfriend, my man, my baby daddy, my Derek…” “I’m yours…” Derek smiled. “There’s only one thing that is bothering me in your signs of possession that you have over me.” “What?” Amber asked surprised. “I want to be more than your boyfriend…” Derek said. “I can’t stop thinking of us together and married as a family where everyone will know that you’re mine.” “You only want to marry me because of the baby.” Amber said. “No, I want to marry you for some time now, even before the baby I knew you are the one…” Derek said quickly. “Mark can confirm what I’m saying!” “Baby…” Amber whispered. “Why do you think I gave you this ring?” Derek grabbed her hand and played with the white ring he gave her and placed her hand in his heart. “In was like a promise that next time I would offer you a ring it would be for real…” Amber could feel his heart racing and she knew he was being sincere. “I just want to make sure that you know that I planned a future for us…” Derek said. “I see us as a family!” “I see us as a family too…” Amber admitted. “That’s why Mark has been calling me Mrs. Hough for months?” Derek smiled embarrassed. “Yes, let’s just say since the first time I mentioned this topic to him, he has been messing with my head…” Derek said avoiding looking at her. “I’ll kick his ass if he kept messing with you.” Amber said. “He won’t able to do anything because I’m pregnant and I will make him feel guilty until I forget that he has been messing with you.” Derek chuckled a little and kissed her. “Do you see us married one day?” Derek asked. “I do…” Amber said smiling. “Besides if you want to propose you need to make it unforgettable.” “I will ask you sooner than you think….” Derek confessed. “I know…” Amber said. “Has to be romantic and unforgettable!” “It will.” Derek smiled. “Then I can tell everyone how amazing you are just by how you proposed…” Amber smiled. “Then our kids will know the true meaning of love.” “Kids?” Derek got on top of her. “How many?” “I don’t know maybe two or three” Amber said seeing the passion in his eyes. “No baby, four kids…” Derek said. “It’s the magic number.” “We will see…” Amber said smiling. “I think we should start practicing…” Derek smiled. “To make sure we don’t lose momentum…” “You’re lucky that I love you…” Amber said kissing him. “I know…” Derek whispered to her before returning to kissing her. The made love again and enjoyed more time alone. LIVING ROOM: Amber was in the kitchen preparing the living room to receive her family and friends for lunch, well she was ordering Derek to the stuff since he didn’t let her do anything. “Der, I can help…” Amber said seeing him moving the couch. “Let me…” Derek said behind the couch. “Thank God it’s just lunch…” Amber said. “If I knew you would be here, I would reschedule everything and spend all this time just enjoying you…” “We still have time…” Derek smiled walking back to Amber. “So, when will you start recording for glee again.” “I didn’t accept yet.” Amber confessed. “Why?” Derek asked surprised. “You know why!” Amber said sad. “You don’t have to worry about me I love you and I trust you.” Derek said. “You want to go back, you should do it” “But…” Amber tried to justify herself. “No babe, we support each other.” Derek said smiling. “Like a very wise woman said to me in many occasions last night, we talk about everything, we trust each other, and we will handle it together…” “You shouldn’t be using my own words against me.” Amber said putting her arms around his waist. “Like I said a very wise woman.” Derek said kissing her nose. “And you’re returning to the show?” Amber asked. “I don’t know, they said they have someone in mind that will challenge me but I’m still waiting.” Derek confessed. “Can I choose what you’re going to be wearing for lunch?” Amber asked. “I want to spend every moment possible taking care of you.” “You choose mine and I will choose yours…” Derek said smiling. “Deal!” Amber said. “Where do you want the table?” Derek asked stepping away from her. “No…” Amber complained. “I want my kisses first…” Derek laughed and came back to Amber and started kissing her shoulder and went up to her neck, biting her ear before going to her lips. “I have a better idea…” Derek whispered to her. He picked her up and went to the middle of the living room and laid her down of the floor before and started making out with her. Amber couldn’t hear her phone since it was in their bed, but someone was calling her, the screen showed one name, Nina.

Black History Fact Of The Day

On November 26, 2013 Amber Riley (best know for her roles on Glee, The Wiz Live! as well as various roles in theater musicals) became the season 17 winner of Dancing With The Stars, making her the first & only Black woman to ever win the mirror ball trophy in the show’s history. She was a fan & judge favorite throughout the season never scoring below 8/10 over the course of the 12 week season. Another notable fact is that she was the first plus size winner breaking the boundaries and stereotypes that surrounds people with her body type that say big people (especially women) can’t dance, be athletic and be sexy. Overall a prime example of #Black Girl Magic✨. 

- “I did this competition because I didn’t know if I could do it and anything that scares me, I wanna do. So I wanna let women of all sizes out there know you can do whatever you put your mind to. It doesn’t matter what size you are, what color you are; you can do whatever, whatever, whatever you put your mind to!” -Amber Riley during her trophy acceptance speech

Here’s her week 1 Cha Cha Cha & season finale Free style
