I'm going to be honest and say that I ship Meg/Erik.
My head!canon screams Meg having this fantastical view of Erik
because of tales that Madame Giry might have told her about
his geniuses. It's reinforced in how eager she is to go after
the phantom at the end of the film. Maybe I'm delusional, Idk.
P.S. If anyone would be willing to fill my day for me next week (October 27th), that would be fantastic. I have three tests next week and already know that I will be short on mental coherency, let alone time.
