Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

No one asked, but I am on Gaia to specifically be cringe, so I'll write about the full lore behind my avatar. I'll probably only change it seldomly now anyway.

I got a neat little mostly-self-insert AU going. It's 1990 PotO with Charles Dance, but I'm happy to extend it to Lerik too. Essentially, the Opera Garnier gets a new benefactress and it's meeeeee. Well kinda. Me but in a fin-de-siecle friendly way. It's partly a power fantasy so I inherited a big stupid title and the French courts can't take it away.

Guess who gets swept up in the Opera Ghost intrigue and, upon learning that the meddlesome phantom is actually a musical genius who lives in the basement, wants to take him on formally as an artist-in-residence at their estate? It's me.

And then it's a neat thing where Erik does find a place in society while we heal each other of some wounds. And maybe have an ill-advised romance because apparently, I am Leslie Knope. But whatever. It's Erik and The Baroness in a fantasy land.

The eye thing is like a joined-soul reference.
