I finally got Procreate! What a better way to break it in the doing all the sticky note drawings I’ve done at work for Welcome to Demon School, Iruma-Kun. I’m still figuring it out, but you know, I’m pretty happy with my beginning attempts.
So I watched Love Never Dies and I liked it ! Let me explain.
The actors, the costumes, some songs ( I think about "The beauty underneath" and "Devil take the hindmost" ) are incredible, charming, so good and all of this !
So yeah the characters are really weird...
Raoul is a bad father, Christine have a son with Erik (?) and I won't speak about the Giry's...
But it can show some interesting things !
For example:
Raoul is a bad father. He never plays with Gustave ( the son of Christine and Raoul think that he is his son but no ) and when Gustave try to play his own music he cut him.
Then we see Erik. He let Gustave plays his music and then he show to him some beautiful things.
So I think the show what to show that Erik, the one who never gets love or kindness, compassion, is a better father than Raoul whot got love and affection!
It's what I think and you probably have to watch the show to make your own point of view.
Sorry for the long post and thanks to read it all !

If I had a nickel for every time I found out an obscure book I like was turned into an opera, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice. Anyhow catch me falling in love with the actress who played Sela.

Hello dear friends! ❤🤍🖤💚
🍉I am Mahmoud Ayyad, a Palestinian from the besieged and destroyed Gaza 😭😭, coming from an extended family of young children, women and elderly people ❤❤ who have been suffering😭😭 for 300 difficult days from an aggressive war.
Our lives are harsh because we lack all the basic necessities of life. Everything has become scarce and unattainable. There is no food, no water, no medicine.
So, I ask you to help me keep my family safe and alive, especially after we had lost all our sources of livelihood.Please do not leave my family to struggle and suffer these difficult days alone. You can support my campaign by donating whatever you can or by sharing my posts to reach others who can help us survive the war to safety and peace. You are helping the lives of many people with your small contribution. Every donation makes a difference in our very difficult lives. But this is a legitimate campaign and has been checked by 90-ghost.

Ooooh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh Ooooh!
[Verse 1: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] I had this perfect dream Un sueño me envolvió This dream was me and you Tal vez estás aquí I want all the world to see Un instinto me guiaba A miracle sensation My guide and inspiration Now my dream is slowly coming true
[Verse 2: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] The wind is a gentle breeze Ooh, él me habló de ti, aah The bells are ringing out El canto vuela They're calling us together Guiding us forever Wish my dream would never go away
[Chorus: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] (Barcelona) It was the first time that we met (Barcelona) How can I forget (Ho-oooh-oooh) The moment that you stepped into the room You took my breath away (Ho-oooh-oooh) (Barcelona) La musica vibró (Barcelona, ooh) Y ella nos unió And if God willing We will meet again someday
[Verse 3: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] Let the songs begin Déjalo nacer Let the music play, aaah-aaah-aaah! Make the voices sing Nace un gran amor Start the celebration Ven a mi, and cry, Grita Come alive, vive And shake the foundations from the skies (Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah!) Ah, ah, shaking all our lives (Aaaah!) Aaaaah!
[Chorus: Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé] [Both] (Barcelona) Such a beautiful horizon (Barcelona) Like a jewel in the sun Por ti seré gaviota de tu bella mar, aaaah-aaah-aaah-aaah (Barcelona) Suenan las campanas (Barcelona, ooh) Abre tus puertas al mundo (Aaaah) If God is willing, if God is willing If God is willing (Aaaaaaaah) Friends until the end Viva, (Aaaaaaaah) Ooh-ooh-ooh, aaah-aaah-aaah-aaaaaaah! Barcelona
[Vocalized Outro: Montserrat Caballé] Oooooh-oooooh-oooooh-ooh! Ooh-ooooooooooh!
