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?
Oh look who caught me on camera
Ignore Von McFangs in the corner, this isn't about him (who am I kidding, everything with him in it is about him)
Want to see his charming visage in colour? Look here
Hiii, just wanted to say hi and ask how your Halloween was?
Have a lovely day/night
- Jam 🐝 ✨️
Hellow Jam, thank you very much for asking! It always makes me happy to see your little frogger picture!
My Hallowe'en season has been bonkers! I was burnt out from Inktober and also the case-of-internet-identity drama came right on its heels.
It's fine, I'm fine, at least I can have a laugh making Sherlock memes about it!
The most spooky thing I did this year was make a bunch of costumes for my stuffed Purrlock and rant about how Kindle had the AUDACITY to recommend me a Christmas romance on November 1st. Me, whose library is full of rubbishy vampire fiction side by side with Victorian horror classics! All good fun.
I hope you had a good halloween & a lovely day/night!
I was reading POTO in French and remembered that this existed, and everything seems a little less bleak. Thank goodness for art.
I sometimes wonder if I'm selfish for spending my time and life on something so immaterial as art. I forget that it's what keeps me sane.
It's not escapism; it's a fight to understand. Immaterial is not the same as useless. It's easy to forget these things.
(I intended this reblog to be a joke about how I've forgotten Erik is French - I imagine him having an RP accent after watching the musical - but I got punched in the face by a dose of Doom and Gloom so here we are. Apologies.)
Local Sad French Man
@cecil-87 This scene when he took off one mask to reveal another mask beneath it had me on the edge of my seat. I went from 'Wait, are we going to see his face this early?' to laughing my head off so fast.
Today on the Goober Cat advent calendar! Leroux's Erik doesn't like the mask, but I'm sure 1990 Erik would. He's got many fancy masks, after all.
Thank you to everyone who showed the Persian love! @jennyfair7 @angel-with-paper-wings @differenceenginegirl @lokislynx your reblogs are delightful!
More Phantom: Cowboy (Cowcat) of the Opera, more Cherik here!
I need to put him in a safe place, he's so small 😭
Ah, good, ask box still open. Don't close it, or small Erik won't be able to visit you -
(Serious Questions coming later, but enjoy some fluffy Erik first)
Yeah, it is still open :-D
And OMFG AHHHHH look at him how cute he issssss ahhhhhhh can i buy himmmm??? Ahhhh
Careful, the hampsters have escaped from Desolation Row!
This is one of the songs I constantly have on loop, but I still mishear "circus" as "suck-ass" and get a fright, every time
Appreciation for how horrifying hamsters are when they've got their mouths open:
(Full hamster yawn on Instagram)
Revenge Era hampsters here! Which song or era should I draw the hampsters in next?
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
The trouble of having a deadpan face. She's going to be passive-aggressively delighted about this for the rest of her days.
Thank you so much @frommarshtheycome for drawing my Sarah!
@purrlockswatson 's OC Sarah Bernard from 'Gothic Tales from Melancholia.'
I love her design, I had a lot of fun drawing her!
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.
Amanda. Artist. Writer. Victorian vampire. Here lies my shenanigans.
