"Raoul vs. Erik: The Court Case" was a sheer inspiration, brought on by months and months of playful arguments over who Christine should have married at the end of the story, and by a shorter, less-comical version written by Lotte. Some of the quotes in the first part of the story are hers--thanks for letting me use them, Lotte!!! :)
I own none of the characters. Well, except for myself--I'm the Prosecution lawyer. I can't very well own the other Julie (who is actually Lotte) or Holly! I hope you guys don't mind that I used you without asking first. :) The Phantom and "Hello, Dolly!" characters do not belong to me!
It would be a VERY good idea to be familiar with both "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Hello, Dolly!" before reading this story. My inbox will be flooded with "Who on earth is Cornelius Hackl?!" otherwise!
I realize that this could have never happened in real life--but what if it had?
