That was really well done!

I was surprised that Anton went into medicine (having had such a passion for the theatre), but liked that it was an unpredictable conclusion for him...as well as for Christine...and Raoul.

I was very surprised that there were offspring - and no mention of them until this chapter...not a bad thing necessarily, just a surprise!

I liked that you gave some room for speculation within the realm of Leroux's knowledge of Erik.

That was a satisfying epilogue in which there is definitely a happily ever after more fitting to Erik's real life.

Thank you for all of your hard work!

Whoa! This was a huge epiphany for Erik! To learn that he was worthy of love is...well...phenomenal. I'm so happy that you brought Freud to him to uncover the webs that shielded his past. Also enjoyed the bit about Elizabeth having used her hypnotism skill on him a couple of times.

Almost there...finally!

Hah,

now i finally know why i keep putting off reading this: I hate it when good fanfictions end. *sigh*

Anyways: "Why bother, when things had just suddenly gotten so good?"
That one made the chapter complete. Just perfect. XD

I probably should go and check out your deviantart accout too... but these ~100 or so "newly" uploaded pictures keep freaking me out, since i REALLY look at all of the stuff that the people on my watchlist are uploading. haha

For this chapter: again, i like your portrayal of Dr. Freud. Oh, and of the persian too.

Wow, for all that I love Leroux (not just Le Phantom, but his other works too), I'm usually extremely particular about fics that claim to be sequels to his work, or 'missing chapters.' But you actually write in much the same style I love him for. I look forward to reading more of your work.
my Regards.

I finally finished Therapeutic. Is it avaliable in paperback yet? (^-^) I absolutely loved it! If you ever decide to publish, let me know. Wow! Words cannot describe the sheer awesomeness, or at least my words can't. That's why I'm a reader and not a writer. Wow! It was Be-Awesome! *get the movie reference to prove yourself cool* (^-^)

...Wow. This was the best phanphic I have ever read, and most likely, the best I will ever read. You've written a highly believable story, where Erik hasn't been turned into a whiny crybaby, (as I have unwillingly done in the past) and he stayed in perfect character throughout the entire story! ^_^ Your OCs (Eliabeth and Anton, specifically) are amazing, and they definitely ARE NOT MarySues. I love the idea that Erik was friends with Leroux and gave him the right to create a novel based on his pursuit of Christine. lol. I also love how you interpreted real historical figures (Freud, Merrick, Treves) into the story. You should be extremely proud of this work, and let me just say that I'm so going to miss sitting at my computer day after day to read it. ^_^ Well, at least I can get back to my stories now... :) Again, great work!

Hello again! ^_^ Love it (as always)! I'm so glad that Erik finally has a wife and FRIENDS! Even just having Nadir, Christine, Anton, and Elizabeth will sure make a difference! Now he won't be alone all the time... :) I sure hope that Dr. Freud will help Erik recover those memories... And BTW, I want to complement you on Don Juan Triumphant. I thought it was great, Erik would be proud! ^_^ BTW, I sent you a PM regarding Elizabeth's home country. I think I have a pretty good idea where she is from, and just want to make sure I have it right. ^_^

O.M.G. Erik is going to kill himself!? And based on the vial in his pocket, I'm guessing poison! Which means that what happens next is 1 of two possible outcomes: Erik will drink the poison, but once again, he won't die. Or, he sees Elizabeth at the show and can't bring himself to do it because he never really said goodbye to her. I must be close, right? Once again, love the story!

Ok. So it took me a tiny bit longer to read an review. XD
But to be honest... my sense of time is rather messed up anyway...*cough*

Now: That was a very interesting portrayal of Dr. Freud. It feels like you put a lot of thought and research into this. How much exactly...? Once or twice I even had to fight the urge to go and visit a psychologist. (IMMEDEATLY! *haha*)

The trance was also very well written. I was remembering that one time my dentist was hypnotizing me some ten years ago and it felt extremely similar. (with your story it´s a good thing that I live what I read... with Orwell´s "1984"...well...it wasn´t! o.o)

I really should have expected a mirror to be the thing in the room. But it took my by surprise...don´t know why though. *hm*

OK...since I simply am not able to criticise anything you write - not even constructively - I better stop here.

It´s late and I still have to finish this book...and a portrait of somebody... *sigh*

Wow. Stupendous, amazing, spectacular. Every phrase, every word, was needs and not wasted in telling this story. You have written this like a love letter to Erik. I was entranced by it. Evrything was accounted for. Love was earned. Even when it was at it's most angsty, it was a sweet pain. I absolutely was blown away by 2 things in particular. Your presentation of Don Juan Triumphant (it was as if Erik had whispered it to you in a dream), and the psychoanalysis with Freud. I don't know how you accomplished this; I am in awe. If you choose to publish, which I think you should, this will be known the world-over as the definitive REAL story of the Phantom of the Opera. Bravo. Well done.

Aww... Poor Erik! Though I must say, BHC, that Anton is my new all-time favorite OC! I mean, he's absolutely perfect, yet believably so. He's full of himself and annoying at times, at times he's kind and polite, sometimes he's funny, sometimes he's serious, and sometimes he's just plain everything! All at once! And to mention he's handsome, and loves music! I love him! OK, sorry for the rambling... ^_^ But really, he is my favorite OC of all, followed closely by Elizabeth. :) Your story is so addicting, it's not even funny. ^_^

I feel so freakin bad for Erik! Though I am glad that he's gonna reopen the Opera. ^_^ I wonder... Does he hire Christine? And will he ever see Elizabeth again? What's going on with her, btw? She hasn't been mentioned for a while... And I feel really stupid writing such questioning reviews on a completed story, when I could just be reading... lol. ^_^ Great job as always! BTW, I looked at your friend's POTO comic things on Deviantart. They're really good, but I'm not a memeber, so I couldn't tell her. Anyway, I'm gonna read now! :)

O.M.G. Why must he always jump to conclusions about EVERYTHING! Poor Elizabeth, poor Christine, poor Raoul, but most of all POOR ERIK! This will become cheery again, right...? He is going to find out the truth from the Persian (because I feel weird calling him Nadir) and go after Elizabeth. Right? Oh, well, anyway, great job! On both the story and making me cry. lol. Just kidding. ^_^

What an amazing story...I loved it.
It is totally different from anything else out there.
I put off reading it for so long because I believed it was all about Erik on a couch talking about his experiences.
I was very pleasantly surprised when I started reading it.
Thank you for all your hard work.
I would love to know how many children they actually had and how many they adopted.
I would love to know if their first time together resulted in a baby or how long after they married they had their first child. Thanks

Once again, amazing! ^_^ I read at least 10 chapters last night, and I had to stop because I was so tired. Which is why I didn't review then; I didn't want to say something stupid while in my zombie-like state. You have me addicted- which does not happen to me often. So good job!
