POTO Queer Week 2023, February 25-March 3
Tumblr media
Hi, everyone! I’m happy to announce that from February 25 to March 3, I will be hosting an event celebrating the different queer pairings and headcanons in the Phantom of the Opera fandom.
What could this look like?
It can look like one or a combination of the following:
-A queer sexual orientation (lesbian, gay, bisexual, asexual, etc.)
-A queer gender identity (transgender, nonbinary,etc.)
-Either a romantic or platonic relationship type
-Genderbends are also welcome!
How to participate:
-Follow the tag #poto queer week 2023
-Contribute fanart, fanfiction, gif sets, fic rec compilations, headcanons, or anything else fannish that catches your fancy. AI works not encouraged.
-Anyone is invited to participate! There is no gatekeeping to this event, just the obvious if I have you blocked I won’t boost your contribution.

When the moon rose in Manzandarin, they became different people. In those hours, Erik was no longer the sultan’s executioner, and he could pretend that Nadir wasn’t the daroga. Maybe they were lying to themselves. Maybe those versions of themselves were their true selves.

About Me
Hi! My name is Elizabeth. I used to create memes of Phantom of the Opera and its sequel Love Never Dies by applying quotes from Texts from Last Night to screenshots from the musicals, but these days this blog is my space to enjoy POTO content and also repost some of my old memes.
General: they/them, 20s, bi/pan.
This is a sideblog. All replies, comments, and asks from @deceivedcomet are from me.
My fanfiction is compiled into this masterlist.
If you’re here for the memes: #texts from last night.
I also run two annual events in the POTO fandom: Queer Week and Fluff Week.
Queer Week runs in late February/early March and is a celebration of queer pairings in the Phantom of the Opera fandom.
               Queer Week 2022
               Queer Week 2023
Fluff Week runs in late July and promotes fluff fics in the fandom.
               Fluff Week 2022
Fluff Week 2023
Fluff Week 2024
I block TERFs, racists, and antis on sight.

2022 Year in Review
I feel like 2022 ended up being a really busy year for me! This was the first year of this blog being a general fandom blog rather than just a meme blog.
January: Started the month off by announcing that I was moving away from just being a texts from last night blog and I commissioned this piece from @chocobascas after a conversation with my beta. I finished my first multlichapter fanfic, All the Things Yet to Come.
February: Started publishing my Encanto/Poto AU which. Um. Oops. I might eventually rewrite what I have written of it because I was never happy with the pacing. Held the first annual Queer Week, which started on February 25. Published the oneshots Old Friends, When Will the Blood Begin to Race, Loneliness, and Fear Can Turn to Love as part of the event.
March: Queer Week continued, and I published the oneshots Quiet Hours, A New Life, and Healing. I wrote a smut reclist. I also wrote a smut oneshot titled Sweet Music's Throne.
April: Wrote and published the oneshot Unspoken Secrets, which to this day is my most popular fic. Reached 420 followers on 4/20 😎.
May: Participated in the second annual Paris Commune Week, hosted by @paperandsong. Reposted Old Friends from Queer Week for the event and wrote a POTO/Les Mis crossover oneshot for the event, Hope.
June: A pretty quiet month, announced the first annual Fluff Week.
July: Held the first annual Fluff Week. For the event, published my oneshots The Truth You Can't Hide, In Your Skin and Bone and Blood, I Found It, All on My Own, Grace in Your Heart and Flowers in Your Hair, Dark Stories of the North, and Hellfire.
August: Published the one shot Before We Get Too Old, which was a one shot I had started for fluff week and then it veered too much into angst.
September: Wrote the oneshot Preparation for Mortality for Crack Week. Behind the scenes, I started writing my next longfic at the beginning of this month.
October: Began publishing Offer Up Your Daughters, a Carmilla Webseries-inspired AU with a female Erik. Also published several POTO oneshots for various month-long events. The ones I published were The Ones She Had Lost and the Ones She Had Found, A Gift, The Saints Can't Help Me Now, All This Devotion (which actually got archived by the Whumptober account), No Way Out, and Begin Again. I didn't publicize it on this blog, but I also published my first oneshots outside the POTO fandom this month. For Stranger Things, I published Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight. For The Witcher, I published Undo This Storm. For the MCU, I published Night Terror. And for Star Wars, I published Hiding, Breaking Out, Stargazing, and The Third Option.
November: Very quiet, just continued posting chapters of Offer Up Your Daughters.
December: Accidentally went viral, -100/10 would not recommend. Published Merry Crimes for Christmas, which is a Christmas-themed oneshot from the Offer Up Your Daughters universe. Finished Offer Up your Daughters! Started work on separating old oneshots out instead of keeping them all in multichapter oneshot collections. Announced the second annual Queer Week to be held again from February 25-March 3.
What to expect in 2023: The sequel to Offer Up Your Daughters will start being posted January 16. The third and final installment will also be published this year. I will also hold Fluff Week again. Other than that, we'll see!
