Tomorrow when the farm boys find this freak of nature, they will wrap his body in newspaper and carry him to the museum.
But tonight he is alive and in the north field with his mother
Of course Operetta doesn't know how to be a proper lady! She was raised by an Incel magician probably in a cave under New Gorleans!
Also!
10. He wears Masks!
11. He creepily watches her
If I had a nickel for every time…
1. A much older man
2. Who rules over a place with an iron fist
3. Tries to woo a young brunet girl
4. With music, magic and mystery, he is very good at it!
5. Where he also brings her to his domain full of traps.
6. There is a Masquerade Ball
7. AND He captures her loved one in an attempt to persuade her to stay with him.
8. Is a fashion king!
9. And finally he has ✨Mommy issues✨
...I'd have TWO Nickels!

Part 6-11 in the reposts!
I relate to the phantom from phantom of the opera because I too am incapable of being normal about liking things ever
I haven’t really worked my butt off on a piece in forever, but this managed to happen. Christianna and Elrik, my poto based ocs! ♡
Hi!
I know I've already been on haitus for a while, but well, I'll be even more haitus for the next week because I'll be travelling.
I've been having a hard time drawing anything. It's not that I have any difficulties that I can pinpoint. It just never seemed to happen. And it kept not happening.
I've been working on a new writing project, I want to say it sucks, but to be fair, it's just not what I usually like to write or even to read, so I won't insult it yet. It deserves it, though. It includes someone sucking on a raw steak. And a ferris wheel. And sad things because of course.
Anyway, enjoy this doodle that hopefully I'll find the heart to finish after next week!
why is daroga so fat
Because of magnificent fur:
But I don't generally assign body shapes to my goober cats unless it's explicitly in the design of their human counterparts. So he can be anything you like.
Small cats are not always small characters (case in point: Kitty Cherik). I draw whatever best showcases my perception of the character.
(Drawing is from this comic. All Phantom of the Opera art here)
how do you feel about love never dies' erik and lnd altogether😭😭
(love never dies art + thoughts with actual words here.)
i love poto so bad it makes me wanna cry
Us when POTO:
(From Pharoga cats Christmas)
It gets worse when you have Phan friends. They have the most diabolical minds for tragedy. Yes, I'm looking at all of you here.
Unless you're speaking of the Spanish poto, Anon?
BAD. That's dirty fighting! Here, have this, okay?
(I'll have you know that Vlad is the whole reason I put in the sidenote. He's that notorious.)
which phantom is ur fav. in all versions. please.
Aahhhhh!
Got to say the OG O.G., Leroux's Erik, but it's EXTREMELY PAINFUL to say so and PLEASE don't tell me all the versions I didn't pick will be put on a converter belt to a Phantom meat grinder
(I'm sorry to every Phan friend who sees this. Cherik lovers, don't come at me with swords, I do love him, okay?)
All my Phantom art in which there is NO FAVOURITISM, I swear

Goodness, what is going on?
(All Phantom of the Opera Cats)
Sneak peek of some Kitty Cherik.
The pixelation is for spoiler reasons, I'm NOT emulating *that* cursed segment of the cursed Phantom 1990 edit I mentioned before although I can't say it's got nothing to do with the video.
Yes, very convincing, Cherik. Oh well, he tried. And hey, it worked! Apologies for messing with Kerik again, it's this or put him in prison, sooo...
Anyway, new reaction picture?
All POTO cats here! Prompts from this list still welcome!
Pharoga kisses, requested by @ruvyn29
Listen, I have something very wholesome and sad planned. I do. But in the meantime -
The first one is called "Where's Erik?" The second one I'd rather not explain.
(Shoutout to the Cheriks, I couldn't bear to crop them out)
Prompt number 10: Kisses from this list - comment or send asks with a number if you want unhinged content like this.
More pharoga cats here! Less specific POTO stuff here.
Tiny Erik is here to say cheers to you!
His hat looks CURSED off-camera, so I gave him some juice (it's Lego, and I can't say how much I love that piece). He still looks a little frightened and brain-off, as Aiden says, but I think he's buzzing inside about so many good stories about him!
Konrad and I have just proofread chapter 29 of the webcomic. I'm so incredibly happy that I've covered the next 10 months with enough comic chapters.
My visit at the doctor today was pretty sobering. Tomorrow I'm going to see another doctor for other problems.
Due to my state of health, it took me about 4 weeks to draw chapter 29. I'm currently putting off the next 3 bonus chapters. No energy for storyboarding.
But I am soooo happy. Chapters 16, 17 and 18 are already prepared in Tapas. I can't wait to read what you have to say. 😍✨✨✨
I love Gerik the Cat and cat vampires that you have drawn! Could you draw Gerik as 12 — a supernatural being? He must be so cute with vampire fangs 💗
He's here! The vampurr of the opurra!
Gerik ticks all the vampire essentials except for the FANGS. He even has a Byronic shirt, and we all know Byron was the first model pretty vampire.
From this prompt list! Send in which items (and cats) you want to see! I already have two cat kisses in the wings... 👀
All POTO cats here!
Original drawing
Hellooooo! Send a number in my asks for this drawing challenge I found!
As a treat, you get to say which character you want to see: POTO cats, any of the ones in my MultiPhantomverse, or my OC crew like Pierce.
If you people muddle around like the last time I asked your opinion, I'm joining Raoul in the chair-throwing club 🪑💨
BUT if you've got interesting templates/prompts to send me, don't hesitate, I'll take them!!
Pharoga cats are back!
Gremlin Cat Erik returns with his ducky swimmers! It should be a tag now, I've drawn them at least three times already
More Pharoga cats here, all POTO cats stuff here
The Daroga and Raoul in the Torture Chamber:
Wireless drinking
Merik, put that down. You know Cherik is one second away from throwing that timer at you. You're all banned. (THANK YOU for doing this!)
A special episode of the Phantoms House sitcom!
A trade/ collab with the fantastic @purrlockswatson <333 (ily)
Our boys tend to fight A LOT, so Cherik (who’s really good at cooking and basically the chef of the house) had the unfortunate idea of proposing cooking together as a bonding activity…
It was supposed to be something simple… But things did not go very well…
After all this mayhem he has banned the other Eriks from the kitchen, if they want to cook they have to ask direct permission to him and show him a recipe and a detailed plan on how they are going to cook said thing (or beg him to cook, like Gerik usually does)
WHAT DID I SAY? What did I say?
ARGH.
Original posts: Nosferatu here and Lescat here.
Thank all of you who pressed the little funny buttons!
Phantom of the Paradise, you're a curious one
For some reason, I was convinced PoTP was set in outer space. Star Trek meets Phantom of the Opera, if you will. ⚠️Mild spoilers afoot⚠️
In a way, I'm glad I was ridiculously mistaken. I felt the full shocking impact of a rockstar-biopic-style narrative turned '70s Faust fever dream. The rooftop scene was like waking up in a nightmare: the metaphor coming horribly to life.
Winslow is a great Erik/Phantom incarnation. As a writer, I'm in sympathy with him for being unable to realise his masterpiece because it's "too long" and the entertainment world doesn't care. And horrible adaptations ARE enough to drive one to notoriety, you go, Winslow. Terrible tragedy that he wasn't allowed access to Erik's gunpowder stash, he deserved it.
Beef is probably the most dramatic La Carlotta parallel to exist, and that's saying something. What in the Santa-looking heck was he wearing as a coat during his "I'm outta here" scene? Somebody Super Like You is absolutely delightful - until he started performing, that is.
Phoenix has a stunning voice and a certain something that just screams superstar.
I'm less impressed by Swan. I'm not acquainted to Paul Williams' works, so I'm speaking solely without context about his background. Personally, I don't think he has the devilish, vampiric quality I'd have liked to see in that role. That's the only letdown in the film, honestly.
Rambles about other POTO adaptations here!
THIS!
It's hilarious! It has the Daroga! And it has the best characterisation of Christine I've see so far! Ramble tomorrow, my brain is on strike today.
Apparently, 15 years (and two, three days) ago, Love Never Dies had its first run.
Have some snarky Ramin Phantom from Devil Take the Hindmost
And why not have the Ben Lewis version, too?
I honestly didn't have to add much chaos at all, it's... what happened
More POTO cats here, a rant about LND here and more LND cats here.
Fanart as penance. More to come 😈

Months go by and still nobody has given you an explanation for the higher-than-average number of customers seemingly dressed for the cabaret. It’s almost becoming a hobby in itself for you, watching the comings and goings of the five masked men.
@purrlockswatson is to blame for this
@blackforrestpunk you’re not blameless either
