[Phantom of the Opera] Dear Phantom
Name of Series: Phantom of the Opera (musical)
Name of Character: The Phantom
Warnings: Swearing and mentions of rape. Possibly spoilers for Love Never Dies, but I know the spoilers and it's not even out yet.
Summary: The upcoming sequel says Christine has the Phantom's child. Analyzing the musical timeline, this leads to a scary conclusion.
Dear Phantom,
I know saying "Phantom is a musical about rape!" is old meme. But according to your sequel musical, it looks like it was truer than I thought.
Apparently, Christine has given birth to your child. Since we're going by musical canon, the only time you two were physically together and offscreen was when she passed out in your lair. This means that you had to have impregnated her when she was unconscious.
...you fucking BASTARD. Is this really supposed to make me think you're better for her than Raoul? Not only am I glad she went with the other guy, I think she should have given you serious injuries rather than a kiss! You stood there and pleaded for her love and made her feel guilty for not returning it while she didn't know you'd raped her when she passed out?
Fuck you. I'm really, really going to have to say Phantom: Love Never Dies is discontinuity if I want to have any sympathy for you.
Your ex-fan,
Mira
