Any recommendations for marking pencils? I've had a couple, but they were so hard they barely left any mark at all. I know you don't want them so dark that they stain, but they don't do me much good if they're too faint to see. :B

I’m pretty bad about this... often I just mark fabric with whatever’s handy.

I’ve gotten fabric marking pencils that were pretty awful, and which I think were just cheap watercolour pencils sold under a different name, so sometimes I just use my actual watercolour pencils. Those can stain though, so sometimes I mark lighter fabrics with regular pencil crayons, but if it’ll show up I tend to just use regular graphite pencil. Waterproof fine tipped pens are good too, and I have used them for embroidery designs on light fabric, but it’s important to do a sample first to make extra sure they’re waterproof and don’t bleed.

I’ve used up my entire bright yellow watercolour pencil on dark fabrics, and am now onto the bright yellow pencil in my regular pencil crayons pack.

In the past I have used those washable crayola markers for things but I don’t do that anymore, as I’ve found they are Very Bad on anything that won’t be washed because if you happen to sweat a bit or spill some water on the garment you suddenly get huge marker stains. And they’re not even very good for light coloured things that will be washed because the ink sort of gets trapped in the felled seams and bulkier bits and takes forever to actually come out.

I always liked Sarah Brightman's voice. I would kill to hear Floor Jansen sing more PoTO stuff though. She's not an actress though, so I doubt she would ever actually audition to play her, but...

also having a 6' tall Christine would be... very very interesting. XD

I guess we have to be satisfied with her singing with Henk Poort but yeah... I would like to see that too. Maybe have her as guest but in costume at a concert event something like that. But in general, I personally, would fucking love to see a tall Christine. You’d only have to change the blocking a bit, otherwise I think only male egos are in the way.

"Monkey Farts"?? XDD

Dyslexia would be the obvious option for a learning disorder that effects writing, although there's nothing that indicates he had a hard time -reading-, so perhaps not. ADHD would also effect his ability to learn something he wasn't interested in, and it just happened to be writing in this case (and using it as punishment would not aid in that in the slightest.)

It’s ok, hon. Americans can’t keep American geography straight.

I still hold that the only way LND's Raoul could've worked is if he'd been sorry and sad, turned to drinking out of depression after blowing through their savings showering his wife and son with things because he was born into wealth and couldn't understand that money wasn't infinite anymore. Not the abusive, neglectful gambler ALW made him into.

But Lord Andy needed somebody to make Erik look good. :P

Good point! Even though it would still be obvious character assassination it would provide some context why they’re in the situation they are. I feel like Raoul knowing or having a hunch from the beginning that Gustave isn’t his child would be the only valid explanation why he lost his grip that bad for me.
