Careful, The Hampsters Have Escaped From Desolation Row!

Have some more silly comics of Leroux Erik roasting his descendants while I storyboard a Phantom music video animatic.

@jennyfair7 your reblog of my WIP is on point, that's basically what happened 😹

All PotO cat comics here

Here are some stupid pics of my gremlin cat :3

(Maybe they can be a bit of help) <3

I HAVE BEEN BLESSED BY THE GREMLIN cat!

Every one of these photos is precious, but there's a special place in my heart for blurry cat pictures. Here's my stuffy gremlin as a tiny token of gratitude🥹 Thank you so much, Ghost!

(I was shooting him with a Lego gun. As an Experiment.)

Vampurr to vampurr. I've seen people wearing antique Victorian gowns to cinemas to meet the Count, but I'm afraid I'm in my hoodie.

Computer is dead, brain is rotted. The mostly hinged Phanart I'd completed is unavailable, so have some unhinged Nosferatu.

It's a bit early for Valentine's, but it's never too early for ✨️miscommunication✨️

This happened during Erik's monologue to the Daroga after he dragged him off the boat. I maintain that we don't know what Erik was wearing when in Siren Mode, so it COULD have been duck swimming trunks.

Pharoga cats are back! More of them here and all PoTO cats here! (Spot more Erik in ducky swimmers)

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.

Erik feels a bit lonely on Christmas.

(Let me make clear that I only ship Pharoga on condition that they are a fluffy perisan cat and a bald gremlin sphynx cat. But in this particular case, I will do it often and obnoxiously.)

Erik DOES cook chicken. The meal is canon, people. More (very canon) Pharoga cats here!

*Slams this lil dude down on the table* Phandom, dinner time!

I found out that the Chinese Phandom calls the Phantom 饭桶, "Rice Bucket," because it sounds like "phantom" (fàntǒng... meh, close enough).

That isn't the best bit.

If someone is a rice bucket, it means they're good for nothing but holding rice inside them (i.e., eating). So it means "useless person."

Now, isn't that perfect for someone who cools his heels in a dank cellar and blackmails his way to massive wages?

More POTO nonsense here!

I think I drew an OC versus Creator thing a while back, but I can't remember what I've done with it, so here's one I drew today

I swear I'm not Undead, I'm just cynical as anything and spend too much time squinting suspiciously at people. How I can have such a happy vampire, I have no idea.

The Freedom to be Grotesque: Gothic Authoresses

Reclaim authorship over “grotesque” writing. Writers have long been forced to deny the impact of their writing for fear of frightening reade

"I shall thus give a general answer to the question, so frequently asked me—How I, then a young girl, came to think of, and to dilate upon, so very hideous an idea?"

- Mary Shelley, Introduction to Frankenstein

In the 1831 edition of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley explained how she, as a 19-year-old young woman, wrote a work that shook contemporary intellectuals.

“I didn’t mean anything by it; it’s only flight of fancy,” the writers who defined gothic literature said to a world that was not prepared to accept that women with no formal education were capable of the intellectual prowess woven into these tales of dark, profound, terrifying worlds.

We have long lived in a society that is quick to denounce, demonise and deny the voices that speak in a different tone. Even if you never show it to a single soul, write. Write, because to write dark, terrible things is to accept that they exist inside you without shame.

Unedited post - with a short piece I published years ago - linked above!

HISTORICAL REFERENCE IN A CHRISTINE DESIGN AAHHHH -

I'm treating this rationally. I am. Honest.

(Original meme by @blackforrestpunk )

@forever-and-whats-left ,a Christine Daaé for you. I hope she fits the bill. I gave her an earring and some hair accessories based on some pictures of Christine Nilsson, widely believed to have been an inspiration for Gaston Leroux.
