ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARTISTS DREW MY SILLY OL' OC. 💛

Pssssst @buccaneeering

A humble offering...

before I inked and colored it ⬇️

Let's all collectively agree to ignore the fact that one eye is bigger than the other 👍

When am I not doodling? Goodness.

I was listening to music and got inspired.

Writing under the cut!

The hallways are dimly lit and empty compared to the hustle and bustle they were filled with this morning.

Julien finds himself admiring the ornate walls of the Opera for a second time as he returns to his daft little room, a plain one with a number 4 plated on its door, he settles and hangs his coat on the chair.

Nothing rang as peculiar, rather, it felt all too the same; down to the way the lantern set the room dimly aglow.

He takes a calming pace around the room, flipping through his papers and eventually sitting down on the bed to think.

Julien's mind was plagued by the peculiar interaction this afternoon; he planned to write about the mysterious voice later, perhaps before he slept.

He turns his head to the side, A NOTE!

The note was small and slender, folded into a neat little square.

It read: HELLO AGAIN.

I HEARD FROM A FRIEND THAT YOU WORKED THE ENTIRE DAY.

PERHAPS YOU HAVE GONE HUNGRY, AS YOU HAD NOT EATEN YET? THAT WOULD BE QUITE THE UNFORTUNATE END.

I HOPE THIS NOTE FINDS YOU WELL-FED AND IN GOOD HEALTH.

-O.G.

The note drew attention to the ache in his stomach that hadn't otherwise made itself known and mixed it with butterflies.

He slipped his coat back on, sneaking off into the Opera's halls at the dead of night...

😅It's been a hot minute since I've written something, I pray it was bearable.

(Edited as I proofread)

I hope you had a good day, whoever you are. ☺️💛

Rewatching Phantom at the moment, I thought this would be fun!

I hope you have a good day, whoever you are. ☺️💛

ask game: self insert lore

because i love developing my self inserts and their role within canon i figured there should be an ask game for it!

1. what are the basics of your self insert? name, date of birth, height, etc.?

2. when in canon does your self insert come in? do you have a scene in mind for your entrance?

3. how do the other characters generally feel about your self insert?

4. would you be considered a main character, side character, villain, or something else?

5. does your self insert have any special powers or abilities?

6. does your self insert have any pets?

7. would any other characters (besides your f/o) have a crush on your self insert?

8. what is your self insert’s orientation?

9. who are your self insert’s closest friends?

10. how do the other characters feel about your self insert and f/o’s relationship?

11. what kind of outfit(s) does your self insert wear?

12. how would the fandom view your character?

13. does your self insert have any information about their family?

14. what hobbies does your self insert have?

15. how does your self insert play a role in the plot of the story? do they help directly defeat the villain, support the heroes, etc.?

16. freebie! name a fact about your self insert you want everyone to know.

for the ask game, 5 and 13 :]

Hihi! Sorry for the late response.

5- Julien does not have any powers.. But he's a jack of all traits in the theatre world(a jack of all traits is a master of none, but still better than a master of one). He sucks at set building, though. Just can't get the measurements right.

You can find 13 in a previous ask!

Thank you always for the asks!! 💛

Snippet of a sketch.

☆ 1, 3, 8 and 10 for the ask game you just put up, lol :)

GAH! Yay!! 🥹🥹💛

1: Julien Alcantara, 12/04/1859, he is 23, uhh He's about 5'4, 5'5, his dad is a carpenter, and his mother is a seamstress.. Uhh.. He got into acting cause of a stageplay he was a part of in grade school.(Not all this information necessarily aligns with me)

3: He's taken on a sort of older brother figure to the corps de ballet. They'll hide behind him when they get spooked, poke playful fun at him.. But other than that, it really varies group to group. Most have a neutral to positive view, with a few outliers. He's liked among coworkers, you know?

8: He is a transman and sooommeewhere on the ace spectrum(?) But he's not open about either, many terms didn't exist at this time, and acceptance was often the latter of hit or miss.

10: It's not out in the open, so it's up for others to speculate.

💛☺️🥹Thank you always for the questions!(I hope this covers everything.)

Question about Julien: what's his job in the Opera?

He's a painter(though he wants to perform)! He does all the scenic painting for the sets and props you'd see on stage! 😊

He tends to get carried away and help with everything or work much later than he's supposed to, to the expense of his sleep schedule. 👍
