This review pertains to the whole of this story; the only reason I'm submitting this at the bottom of chapter one, is that I'm too lazy to scroll all the way to the end. lol

i loved this; although it follows very little of the original plot, (which would normally send me running and screaming as I"m a devoted Leroux and ALW fan) it warmed my heart and was an extreme joy to read. Admittedly, a tiny part of me wished christine and Erik's relationship could have remained unchanged, without progressing to the next level so to speak, but I know it was for the best. I read a review that described it as "cute" but that the characters were not credible. I disagree, I found them real, humorous, and wonderfully dynamic. admittedly, Christine could have gotten angrier in some parts, perhaps she was too angelic, but that's the whole point in the end is it not? well, without boring you further, I will simply thank you for writing this, and I hope to read more of your work if I can.
Great job,
Erik's Song

Please do continue!

Cheers,

I have loved every minute of this story! You must do it justice and update soon, please!

I love this story and the direction it appears to be taking. Beautiful!

Ah, no! You can't stop here...it was just getting good! It's been almost two years now, I hope this hasn't been discontinued. I can't wait to read the next chapter.

Hey, I love this fanfic. It is one of the few that I have reviewed because I love it so much. It is really great and I cannot wait to see what happens next. I just had the wierdest vision of Erik playing Dance Dance Revolution. "Bob cannot write the opera because I am going to make the green jello myself."

Did you abandon this story? I just discovered it... and I really like it.

But it's been over a year...

I really love this story. Erik is so sweet and Christine is lovely. Please update soon!

What the heck! Why aren't you continuing this? It's been over a year. Update, already!

*Heavy sigh*...how do I say this...it was good. I loved how the two had been together since she was a child, that was cool but...it was very unreal. I could not believe anything that was going on. I was not being drawn into the story and alot of things seemed fake. It would have been more real if more things were explained. It seems like you had a good thought for a story in your head but it just didn't come out right. Most people who like EC is because they like Erik. And what they are really looking for is a romance between Erik and themselves, so they put everything they would like be to with Erik into Christine. This normally kills Christine's character and makes her very OOC to the point the stroy doesn't make sense. I'm not saying Christine would not have done all the things she did in this story but for her to have done them, alot of things would have to have been different. No child is perfect, we all have faults, and not just tiny ones. In this story Christine was a perfect angel, and that's one BIG reason why it seemed so fake. In the phantom of the opera Erik wanted an ideal woman, thinking that only a perfect woman could love him. He put this dream into Christine, telling himself that she was so innocent and wonderful, that if given time, she would love him like he loved her. If you really read the book you will notice this. Anyway christine was only human, she was just a normal girl, so of course she would react as anyone else would. That is why she feared him, and also why a lot of problems started, and it is also HUGE reason why they did not end up together in the end. Christine had faults, she had alot of them, which is why it took a while for Christine to see past those fears and realize he wasn't a monster, thus her quote "poor unhappy erik." Sadly Erik didn't step out of his fanasty that Christine was perfect, because that is why he wanted to kill Raoul because he found no fault with her. Anyways reading this story I did not see Christine, or who christine could have been, if she went through all this, all I saw was a phan gurl who really loved erik and so she created a romance between him, and her, while hiding behind Christine's name. Which is why Christine does not react to alot of situations like a normal person, instead she reacts like a devoted fan gurl and plays the role she has given herself in her little dream world. It was cute but this is not Christine's and Erik's story this is CrawfordsBiscuits and Erik's story.

P.S. Remember the characters and try to remove your feelings from some situations, so you can see things in a realistic view and not get yourself mixed up with Christine. Nice story it was very cute.
