I wouldn't say that, at all. "Most" fans? Most fans that like Kay's novel and consider it a sort-of canon are fans of the musical more than the original novel. Which, I suppose makes sense, since Kay romanticized Erik as much as the musical itself did, if not moreso. So, Kay's Erik falls more along the lines of his musical version than his actual canon personality.

I'm not saying it wasn't a good book. I thought it was, except for some rather flaky parts here and there (But lots of books are like that). Still, the bottom line is, you may like it all you want, but you can't claim it canon. It is NOT canon. It will never BE canon. And you can't use a published fanfiction as a defense of a pairing you like. That is kinda silly. You can actually use true canon to argue on your own behalf. I know you can; I've read the book.

And I did use the original book to defend my ship, go back and read the comment I made to another person about Raoul asking Christine if she loved him, her hesitating and Raoul saying, "You do love him, and it is a love of the deepest kind, the love you cannot even admit to yourself"

Leroux is MY canon, I love Leroux's work. Notice I also said, "ALTERNATE" canon. I didn't call it canon, I called it ALTERNATE canon. There is a big difference. I've been a Phantom fan since I was six years old when I first heard the musical. I read the original novel when I was 8 and I've been a fan of that since then. I'm 20 years old now, I've been a fan for almost all of my life.
