[This device is odd. There is nothing like it in his era. But Erik is a smart man. It only takes a bit of tinkering before he is able to turn on the text function.]
To the captain of this vessel,
I should start by saying that I am quite pleased with knowing that there is a stage on board your ship. If given the opportunity, I would like very much to put on a performance of which I am sure you and your crew have never seen before.
But, to business. I am aware that you have a young woman by the name of Christine Daaé as a passenger. This too pleases me greatly, as I am sure you are aware of her musical talents.
My only request is that I be placed as close to her quarters as possible, so that her tutelage may continue without hindrance.
I am but a humble servant,
O.G.

[That everyone was dead. Gone. Never to be seen again. And she doesn't know whether it's a good or bad thing that Erik is here, mostly because she doesn't know how she feels about Erik himself.]

Hopefully.
Maybe she should try to change the subject.]
...What is happening at the Populaire? It has been over a year, and I had no way of knowing what had happened, and the crew just told us to forget...

I had thought you were still sleeping in my bed.
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-03 12:11 am (UTC)But the masquerade, Erik! And Il Muto!
[And her ripping his mask off, exposing the shocking horror of his face. Her engagement to Raoul. Buquet's murder.
Oh, Lord, what should she say if he asks her what happened to her after he was brought here?]

Date: 2010-01-03 12:33 am (UTC)The masquerade is not for several more months. How did you know about Il Muto? I had not thought the fools had announced it yet.

Date: 2010-01-03 09:14 pm (UTC)That cannot be.
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-06 12:17 am (UTC)I would not lie to you, Angel.
[Much. About something like this. Really, what kind of person do you think she is?]
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-06 12:28 am (UTC)Of course not, Child. I am just...
[He pauses.]
You've been here an entire year? You've been well?

But that's all in the past, and even if he sees her eyes, she can think of something, surely, which should suffice if he does not then mention it to someone who knows what they really mean.]

Date: 2010-01-06 12:51 am (UTC)[Don't tell him any of that. Erik is so very
jealousprotective of Christine and won't stop until he has avenged her.][Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-06 12:53 am (UTC)Oh, no! I mean, I was. Of course I was. There is no reason at all why I would not be well, now or any other time.

Date: 2010-01-06 12:57 am (UTC)[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-06 01:05 am (UTC)I am not. I would never lie to you.
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-06 01:19 am (UTC)[His tone has changed. It's low and authoritative. Come on, Christine. Don't make him mad at you.]
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-08 01:08 am (UTC)It is nothing, I swear! It is in the past, and not important.
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-08 09:32 pm (UTC)Then tell me what it is.
[Audio//French]
Date: 2010-01-10 03:53 am (UTC)[Christine hopes that Erik won't keep probing. It's so much harder to avoid telling the whole truth when he's actually speaking to her.]
