Original LND Erik: Wow Christine, you’ve got a kid now? Guess if I want to win you back I should probably be nice to him. I bet he’d like a tour of my sideshow.
LND Australia Erik: Wow Christine, you’ve got a kid now? He’s so much like you. Sing for me or I’ll abduct him.
#poto#phantom of the opera#love never dies#lnd#I don’t understand why this was a necessary change#the original plot doesn’t make much sense but surely there are ways to fix it#without such character assassination#ftr tho I don’t think he intended to follow through properly#just made a threat and lured Gustave away to scare Christine at worst#logically I guess it makes sense because I hc lnd Erik as going through a mental health relapse#triggered by his ex being in town or something lol#but it doesn’t exactly make me root for eristine#which I thought lnd was made specifically to make canon

Okay. So. Was thinking of a way to fix "Love never dies," cause as it is, It sucks ass. For starters, we need to add a few things so that in the context of the original Phantom of The Opera, Love Never Dies should've never really happened. However, I think I've come up with a few ideas that could fix up the story and make LND make just a little bit more sense.
For starters, if you're gonna make Raoul villiainous, and make The Phantom the main love interest, give hints in the original play. In Phantom of The Opera, Raoul is still a spoiled rich boy, but he is still kind, loving, and cares for Christine so much that he is willing to risk his life for her. Home boy loved her through and through and it makes no sense for him to have this heel turn for literally no fucking reason. However, in the book, he was more whiny, entitled, and selfish, so if you implement more of those traits in the original Phantom of The Opera, then not only do you give Raoul more character but Love Never Dies makes more sense. Plus it gives that added tragic factor where Christine chooses Raoul over the Phantom in the end. So that would be the first thing I would do. Make Raoul a legit villainous character that wins in the end because The Phantom can't keep her. Hell, for added flavor, make Raoul responsible for some of the murders and pin it on The Phantom! That will also contribute to Raoul basking in his role as "The brave hero that slayed The Wicked Phantom and saved his childhood sweetheart."
Okay. Now onto The actual events of Love Never Dies.
I feel like Erik would take whatever riches he could and flee to America after the events of "Phantom of The Opera." He would become an anonymous poet, composer, and even an opera singer himself. His talents get him recognized in a smaller theatre on Coney Island where he thinks he can start his life anew. I think that Meg and Girys would still help him escape as they might have sympathy for him. Meg is a kind and gentle soul that Love Never Dies does DIRTY. So if she is going to have a new role, it's a support system for Erik. They help him craft a new identity and start a new life to cope with his heartbreak.
10 years later, Raoul, Christine, and Guastave move to Coney Island, with little Guastave wearing a mask that covers his entire face and his father giving him a dirty look. Yup. Raoul has a similar deformity to The Phantom when he was born and Raoul is not happy. He constantly accused Christine of going behind his back and, "whoring herself off to that hellspawn." When, no. No, it was sheer coincidence, or the gods above not giving poor Christine a break. At least The poor boy has his ever-loving mother to comfort and raise him while his father is getting drunk and gambling their money away. Things get so bad, that Gustave starts singing on the streets for cash as a street performer at night. Meg catches wind of Christine's financial situation and how Raoul has been treating her, so she gets a plan. She invites Christine to perform at the same theatre she's performing at along with her "new friend and colleague," Simon Rose. Upon meeting "Simon" she knows exactly who he is, but she keeps it to herself, but stays professional for her family's sake… and his. Simon does the same. However, upon seeing the love of his life again, he starts to spiral. He threatens to fall back into his old ways, and Raoul grows more and more suspicious with each passing day.
One night, Simon is walking the streets alone at night, when he sees Gustave performing for a few coins so the poor boy can buy groceries. Simon, feeling pity for the child as he was in the same position once, gives Gustave pretty much all the money in his wallet. Not only that, he takes the boy to a nearby park to perform a small song together on the park piano. Feeling comfortable with the child, he removes his mask showing the child his true face. Gustave is delighted and takes his off. Erik is the first person that's just like him. They share a tender bonding moment that has Gustave wishing Erik was his father instead of Raoul.
Alright. Alright. Because I am a slut for "Devil takes the hindmost" & "Devil takes the hindmost Quartet," I found a way to work into this version. After getting Gustave home safely, Erik is outraged at Raoul. Here is his poor son, begging strangers for money, while he's becoming a stinking drunk that practically burns through what little money they have. Erik confronts Raoul at the bar he's drinking at and the wadger is on. During Christine's next performance, if she doesn't sing, Raoul wins. He gets Christone, his family, and all the money to fill his pockets and pay off his gambling debt. If she does sing, Raoul leaves alone. Forever. The devil takes the hindmost. However, Raoul panics and tries to bring back that pretty boy charm to win Christine back. Something of note here. In "Before The Performance," The Phantom puts a diamond necklace on Christine. While it may appear to be a romantic gesture, similar movies like Moulin Rouge and Titanic portray this as an act of control and obsession for our female heroine. Like a diamond encrust collar or leash of sorts to tie them forever in a golden cage. I think this kind of thing would be better if it was Raoul putting the diamond necklace on Christine, using the last of his money in a last-ditch effort to secure his love before the show. It would also be more thematic if Erik came to her and took the necklace off her as he sings about her setting the music in her free. As for Devil takes the hindmost Quartet, Girys' lines would have to be changed, but you're gonna have to that. Just because I'm the firstborn of a lyricist doesn't mean I am one folk.
Christine chooses to sing. And love never dies can have a few meanings here. Not just love for Eric. But love for Gustave, Meg, herself, and The art of performing. Christine had to give up all of that except for Gustave after she married Raoul, but she takes back her life and choose her happiness for once instead of the happiness of others. After the performance, Erik runs up to her backstage and gives her a Hollywood-worthy kiss, dip, and all. They then give their short reprise version of "All I ask of you," but there's one problem… Where's Gustave? Erik and Christine panic, when Meg states she saw Raoul run off with Gustave towards the pier. Christine, Erik, Meg, and Girys all rush off to find Raoul and the poor child before something tragic happens.
Meanwhile, at the pier, Raoul debates whether to shoot little Gustave or drown in the ocean with him, all while the poor child is sobbing and pleading for his life. Erik and company show up just in time, but Raoul holds a gun to all of them, threatening to kill Gustave if they get any closer. It's there that Raoul hashes out all of his grievances, his insecurities, and his hatred towards Gustave. All he can see is "That Damned Hellspan," even though that's 100% biologically his son, he just has a similar deformity to Erik. Erik uses his skill to lasso the gun and Gustave away from Raoul and has the cruel drunk at his mercy. He's tempted to kill him right then and there, but then looks over to Christine and Gustave. His anger quells and Erik gets a bit of character development here. Because he now knows what real love is… It's taught him so much. Romantic. Familiar. Platonic. Self-love. It has changed him forever. It has taught him patience, kindness, empathy… and mercy. Erik harshly tells Raoul to board his cruise and leave. Never return. Raoul leaves like a dog with its tail between its legs as Erik comforts his family.
Time skips to an elderly Raoul lamenting about the woman he lost, and "has died," because while he still loves Christine, she's dead to him now. (You know, mirroring the beginning sequence of the original play~?) Meanwhile, on Coney Island, Erik, Christine, and Meg sit in the opera box and listen in awe as a grown-up Gustave's voice fills the opera house with a beautiful rendition of "Think of Me."
The end! This is… by no means perfect, and could DEFIDENTLY use some tweening, but this is what I got so far. Hope you all enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it and feel free to give me some feedback!
#vic speaks his mind#phantom of the opera#love never dies#Me: Ya know I'm a bit behind on swordtember I should get on that.#Also me: Rewrites a god awful phantom of the opera sequel#IF YOU'RE GONNA WRITE CHRISTINE CHOOSING THE PHANTOM DO IT RIGHT

Did ever happened to you or some friend in school those times were you top undewear just opens and you need to run to an empty place or get the girls to forme a barrier around you so you can fix it without being seen? Well, it happened to me once and my friend was the only one there to help me (the plastic lock thing was broken so he gave me his coat to use untill i was home).
I was thinking if you could write something like this with the LnDs boys (can be in those message app style), please?
Hi nonnie!! I haven’t actually experienced that myself since I always bought bras with strong ass iron clasps, but I’ve definitely lost a strap or two, and watched many of my friends fall victim to broken clasps and had to help out 😭😭 I did finish this request today!! It’s right here. I tried to mix up the situations a bit, but they’re still the same general idea. Hope you like how these turned out!!💗💗💗

I’ve seen people making metaphors of LnD:
LHJD=revolution
Sifeng=reform
Bailin/HC=oppression
and the ending of LnD is reform taking over and appeasing revolution to subside. That is a nice kind way to conclude the plot isn’t it?
So for the metaphors, then what does Xuanji represent? Perhaps, the deceived public.
Deliberately kept in a maimed state, with their intrinsic ability to anger, hate etc amputated away(attempted anyway), to reduce the possibility of resurgence from the root without having to fix the real conditions that led to the negative responses.
So that’s why although I like the way LnD concluded its plot, I see that it could totally go the other direction. If reform failed, what comes should be revolution, or else an evil order will be perpetuated.
Until its eventual self-destruction (what a grander scale firework that would be).
So no matter how much I love Sifeng, I totally disagree that Xuanji should follow Sifeng’s words as order if he died. It would be a farce if Xuanji just become someone holding over memory of past good times but losing the actual person she loved so much. It would means the world had taken away too much from her/LHJD, and played her like a fool by killing innocent to destroy her will to fight. It would mean to perpetuate a ‘peace’ built on the back of endless ‘virgin sacrifices’. I’d hate for her to fall for that. If that, she absolutely should tip over the Cauldron of Primeval Chaos and let the order of three realms reset.
That would be a much better path than the alternative, in every sense.

been lurking lnd and the sheets server for ni updates bc im too lazy to join the actual ni discord but it seems the domain was renewed altho the site itself isnt back up yet, hopefully it will be! more importantly tho please for fucks sake be normal about a fanmade fanrun resource thats a labour of love by someone who might not even play the game anymore but has put in years of work to make other players' experience easier (which. kinda fucked up that we need a whole external site for this and im glad sn fixed that problem even if ln didnt)
its just kind of ridiculous how entitled ive seen people act about it on twitter and discord. ni is not an official resource, its organised by a fan and what cupcake does or doesnt do with it is her own choice even if it inconveniences you.

🔥 🔥 gimmie TWO opinions
🔥 for an unpopular opinion
1. Kay's Phantom is literally my bible like. that's canon for me babey. when i think about Erik's backstory it's Kay all the way down — I don't agree with every single characterization or plot detail, especially towards the end, but overall it has been more formative to my muse and understanding of the character than the original novel ngl
2. i have a complicated relationship with LND, like i hate it but some of the music fucks and there are things within it that make my brain go brrrr like Meg's character arc and Erik having a son. my toxic trait is believing i can fix her

❝ i'm very lucky to have you. ❞ ( i am handing you a hammer, we are fixing lnd )
@delanuit || thank you! have a very damaged bby
Meg pulls pins from blonde curls, stray pieces of hair ripping from her scalp in her carelessness as she does. She had thought her dressing room door locked— after meeting with investors, it was the only privacy she could be awarded before falling into a troubled sleep, soon greeting the waves in the cover of night to seek peace.
If not for his voice, Meg would have continued her evening ritual; instead, she turns on her vanity's stool to be met with the man who she is certain has forgotten of her existence. Part of her wishes to tell him to leave, the other part can feel her cheeks become hot as anguished tears fight to finally release down rouged cheeks.
She swallows, her throat dry and uncomfortably sore before turning back to view her haggard reflection. And then her fingers begin to fiddle with cheap earrings— mother says the men prefer it that way.
No, she does not believe him.
"What do you need from me, Erik?"
#delanuit#c; mister y#v; glistening and glimmering#god she is just a ball of hurt#she doesn't even believe him

Hello!! ^^
I got some fanfiction asks for you too:
🌍fave type of au to write?
🧑 favorite character to write?
📒any fics planned?
hi there! thanks for the asks!
🌍favourite type of au to write?
i have yet to have the pleasure of writing an AU in the true sense of the word, i suppose, but i am a sucker for writing LND fix-it fics (hence why my main fic exists), but I'm also hoping to write a modern AU at some point! i would love to do that.
🧑 favourite character to write?
so i previously answered this question when flora sent me an ask and said erik was my favourite (which is true), but nadir/the daroga is another fav for sure. getting to play him as erik's opposite, his moral compass, the other side of his brain is a super fun thing to play around with. nadir is also a character with an interesting backstory that an author can really play around with it, and the friendship that he and erik have is one of my favourite things to write for sure!
📒 any fics planned?
i answered this ask already as well, but I'll reiterate - i'm hoping to return to Like Father, Like Son's companion story, as well as (hopefully) being able to put together a modern Cherik AU! plus a bunch of oneshots as well :)
thank you again! <3

Okay, since someone already asked and I can't fight them, still for the fic game, 💡
What inspires my fic ideas.... wow, this is a tough one. Dreams? Sentences I read that I find fitting for PotO? Situations where I think WWED (what would Erik do)? The urge to fix the half mess that is LND (that is how it all started, basically *g*). That's the gist of it.
