How Do You Feel About Love Never Dies' Erik And Lnd Altogether😭😭

Tiny Erik is here to say cheers to you!

His hat looks CURSED off-camera, so I gave him some juice (it's Lego, and I can't say how much I love that piece). He still looks a little frightened and brain-off, as Aiden says, but I think he's buzzing inside about so many good stories about him!

Konrad and I have just proofread chapter 29 of the webcomic. I'm so incredibly happy that I've covered the next 10 months with enough comic chapters.

My visit at the doctor today was pretty sobering. Tomorrow I'm going to see another doctor for other problems.

Due to my state of health, it took me about 4 weeks to draw chapter 29. I'm currently putting off the next 3 bonus chapters. No energy for storyboarding.

But I am soooo happy. Chapters 16, 17 and 18 are already prepared in Tapas. I can't wait to read what you have to say. 😍✨✨✨

The trouble of having a deadpan face. She's going to be passive-aggressively delighted about this for the rest of her days.

Thank you so much @frommarshtheycome for drawing my Sarah!

@purrlockswatson 's OC Sarah Bernard from 'Gothic Tales from Melancholia.'

I love her design, I had a lot of fun drawing her!

A Christmas Carol, but Scrooge is dead (Pt 2, 3 & footnotes)

@blackforrestpunk Gruel is served! (Pt. 1 here)

C'est le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

I’m reading the Le Fantôme de L'Ôpéra. Here are some highlights of my Kindle highlights:

The correct translation is actually something like 'she was reading a book with gold edging,' tranche meaning both 'edge (of a book)' and 'rasher (of bacon.)'

(As a walking, talking dictionary, I am morally obliged to mention that the translation is actually ‘dandies’ not 'gentlemen.')

You can probably guess that the last word means ‘unmask.’ And we all know how well that goes down with Erik.

Poor Persian, though.

This segment was cut out of De Mattos's English translation, so I don't have an explanation for this. (See replies for Vlad's traslation!)

Being a Goth has really improved my French. First I kept writing French captions for my Interview with the Vampurr comics (examples here and here), and now I'm reading a French classic despite only understanding around 1 word in 5.

I was reading POTO in French and remembered that this existed, and everything seems a little less bleak. Thank goodness for art.

I sometimes wonder if I'm selfish for spending my time and life on something so immaterial as art. I forget that it's what keeps me sane.

It's not escapism; it's a fight to understand. Immaterial is not the same as useless. It's easy to forget these things.

(I intended this reblog to be a joke about how I've forgotten Erik is French - I imagine him having an RP accent after watching the musical - but I got punched in the face by a dose of Doom and Gloom so here we are. Apologies.)

For the OC ask game: 9 & 14!

Hiya, thank you for asking! I love doing these. Questions are from this ask game.

9. Does your character swear? Do they remember their first swearword? Pierce doesn't swear much, though he loves a saucy euphemism. He was in with a very... radical, wild crowd when he was young, he definitely learned a thing or two. Cleopatra was born in the Noughties, she has an extensive mental curseword dictionary but prefers creative insults . Her first swear was 'shite.' Sarah swears every few sentences, mostly 'hell' and 'damn', which were pretty bad in the 1700s, but she also uses slurs (which are never actually written out - once she 'called Pierce a name') that were common back then.

14. What animal are they afraid of? Pierce is afraid of terriers. He likes most dogs, but the small kind makes him jumpy. His fears change depending on what animal form he's taking, really. Cleopatra is afraid of fishes. She thinks they look very creepy in the water. Aquariums make her intensely uncomfortable, but she also enjoys it. Sarah is afraid of vampires. They symbolise corruption and depravity, but most of all because she is tempted by the power they have.

i love poto so bad it makes me wanna cry

Us when POTO:

(From Pharoga cats Christmas)

It gets worse when you have Phan friends. They have the most diabolical minds for tragedy. Yes, I'm looking at all of you here.

Unless you're speaking of the Spanish poto, Anon?

The Phantoms meet Love Never Dies Phantom. They are Unamused. I refuse to accept that this Phiasco Phantom is the same entity as the Phantom from the original musical.

I said I'll be pretending LND doesn't exist for the rest of my life. I lied. I watched it yesterday. Lying is bad.

All my Phantom cats here!

Hi!

I know I've already been on haitus for a while, but well, I'll be even more haitus for the next week because I'll be travelling.

I've been having a hard time drawing anything. It's not that I have any difficulties that I can pinpoint. It just never seemed to happen. And it kept not happening.

I've been working on a new writing project, I want to say it sucks, but to be fair, it's just not what I usually like to write or even to read, so I won't insult it yet. It deserves it, though. It includes someone sucking on a raw steak. And a ferris wheel. And sad things because of course.

Anyway, enjoy this doodle that hopefully I'll find the heart to finish after next week!
