What a sad, yet sweet story! I really enjoyed this new look at bit of Erik's early life.

I loved how you explored Erik's childhood from a completely new point of view. It would be very much in character, for Erik to lie to Christine for any sort of sympathy.

Wow, very creative story and completely believable! Very interesting!

Very interesting story. I love the creative look at Erik's childhood. I kind of like the idea of Erik actually having a mother who didn't absolutely loathe him, but still having a pretty sad and screwed up early life. This is very believable and in-character and just great. Thank you!

(Also, Erik's doll house reminds me of the ridiculously complicated and ongoing games my sister and I played out with dolls when we were little. So I enjoyed that aspect quite a bit.)
