Dear Erik,
I
am not going to drool over you and make you think that I am
some
disgusting "Mary-sueish" fangirl who wants to
huggle you and do all sorts of
other ridiculous things that would
no doubt be embarrassing to both you and I.
I have a question
regarding my own awkwardness in the fact that you and I have
one
similarity. We are handicapped, (that's what we would call your face
in
the modern world.) My friends all say that I am weird because
in all of my
Phantom stories you either have found love or will at
some point. Tell me, do
you think it's weird that I want
you to be happy?
Courgly:
Phantombeliever
Dear Believer,
That's very kind of you to wish me happiness… Thank you.

Dear Erik,
During
my most recent bus trip between cities, I happened to sit next to
a
very charming lady. She wore a bonnet and sunglasses for
the entire 5-hour
ride. We ended up talking for the majority
of the trip, and it struck me that
she had a very pretty, slightly
accented voice. Being a musician myself, I
found it natural
to discuss my art, and she revealed that she herself did some
singing
a very, very long time ago. We then spoke about opera, and she
became
very passionate, speaking about opera as though she had
performed it herself.
But as soon as I began to show interest in
her knowledge of opera, she
suddenly became very close-mouthed and
somewhat sad.
On her finger, she wore a ring, though
she told me it wasn't from her
husband, but from a very dear
friend. This "dear friend" apparently taught
her
everything during her childhood, and she was unhappy she had never
again
seen him. She only gave me her first name: "Chrissy"
and said her last name
was "Daniels." Then, at
another point in the trip, she forgot "Daniels" and
said
it was "Day." And toward the end of the trip, she
said it was "Diana"
before catching herself, saying:
"Oh, I meant that's my middle name." Then she
laughed (a
very nervous laugh, though quite bell-like in sound) and
quickly
changed subjects.
I don't know if I'll ever see her
again, but perhaps this was your long-lost
Christine?
Respectfully
yours,
Audacious
Dear Audacious,
Wow, that's quite a story. It could very well have been Christine. I suppose there's no way to know for sure, though…

Monsouir Erik,
I
am curious: what is your opinion on--dare I say it?--rap? Should it
REALLY
be considered music? Quite honestly, I cannot stand it. I
consider it cRAP
rather than music... there is no tune, just a
rhythm! Honestly, how poeple
could confuse the two is beyond me.
What is your opinion?
Your humble,
Saloma-Kiwi
Dear Saloma,
Please, do not get me started on rap. I appreciate the artists' right to self-expression, but could there be any more obnoxious way to express one's self? I think not.
-Erik
Dear Erik
I have
been a singer since the age of seven but lately it seems people
have
lost interest of my voice. Could you please help me find my
angle of music to
help my voice become amazing
again
waiting,
deformed2
Dear deformed,
Why certainly. For the low price of 20,000 francs per month, I'll happily lend my AOM skills to anyone.
However, if even such a low price is too much, you could try talking to experts and see what they have to say.
Good luck!
-Erik
A/N: Sorry if you like rap music, but I'm not a fan, and I'm sure Erik wouldn't be too pleased with it, either.
