Um...I haven't read the book in a while (a few years, so my memory is kinda rusty) but I don't remember Christine actually, you know, loving Erik in a romantic sense. Pity? Sure.

there's actually a quote, when Raoul and her are on the rooftop under Apollo's Lyre where he asks her, "Do you love him?" and she hesitates and he says, "You do! You love him...and it is the love of the deepest kind, the kind you do not even admit to yourself"

So I kind of take it in that sense. Plus I put a lot of stock into Susan Kay's novel.

Even so, I rather think Erik was a rather manipulative and abusive man. Kidnapping Christine and threatening to kill her fiance, murdering people who displeased him, extorting money from the owners of the opera house and so forth.

Oh by no means am I saying that it's a healthy relationship, it's not. It's just my ship, so I defend it.

Also, as I said, I take Susan Kay's novel as practically my personal canon, so I see what's going on in Erik's psyche and understand it a lot more...that's just me though.

I've not read Susan Kay, but I've read the Leroux's novel, and I think that Raoul is misinterpreting the confusion of Christine's feelings here. I think she's attracted to him, and what he represents but it's by no means so clear cut as love for Erik. I'm particularly suspicious of that line in which he takes it upon himself to tell her how she *really* feels, claiming to know better than she does herself.

I definitely recommend reading Kay's novel. If you're a fan of Phantom it's a must, it's personally my favorite novel of all time, practically saved my life when I was going through some problems.

I tend to like the original's interpretation more than Kay's novel, but then again, it's not my ship. Have you read any of the comics? They're pretty cool. ^^
