Megan sat singing and accompanying herself at the organ.
"This is Ground Control to Major Tom! You've really made the grade And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear! Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare! This is Major Tom to Ground Control! I'm stepping through the door And I'm floating in a most peculiar way And the stars look very different today! For here am I sitting in a tin can Far above the world Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do..."
She played a few chords in quick succession, clapped her hands twice, and looked at Erik.
"So. How do we get rid of the man who stole your girl?"

*Erik was startled at his work by a curious din from the parlour. He drifted towards the piano. When Megan stopped, he frowned, and ignored her spoken question.*
"What was that?"
((YES. MY ERIK LIKES BOWIE.))

((And why not?))
"David Bowie. 'Space Oddity'."

*Erik blinked.*
"Bowie? Like the knife?"

Megan chuckled.
"I guess. I'm pretty sure it's a stage name. But yeah, he's a musician from where I come from, and I think he actually owns the trademark to the word 'awesome'."

*Erik frowned but did not ask for the significance of "awesome" in this context. The girl said many nonsensical things. If he asked about all of them, there'd be much less haunting getting done.*
"He is clearly a genius. How interesting. Perhaps your world is not so benighted as Erik first thought."
*He shook his head.*
"But nevermind that! You asked an understandable, if ridiculous question. The answer is--by making her fall in love with Erik. You will continue to perform your work on his face."

"Look, I'm not a miracle worker, okay? If you'd given it time to harden last time, The Sexy might not have crumbled and fallen off. And the way I see it, he's too much of a distraction. She'll never go to you when he's around. So what you do is kill him and make it look like an accident, then step in as the shoulder to cry on. Get it?"
((Sue!Me is SO Harley Quinn.))

((The Sexy?))
*Erik frowned.*
"Kill Chagny?"
*He turned to pace the room.*
"But she will know it was Erik. I cannot have my Christine crying, no. She is much less pretty, when she cries."

((The makeup.))
"You could always blame it on me." Megan offered. "Or we could get him sick. Something Christine would never think of connecting to you."

"Look, boss, I'm just trying to help here. Cut me a little slack. I want him out of the picture as badly as you do."

((I know what you meant, I was just laughing at what Erik would think of such a phrase.))
*He shook his head.*
"No, no. If Chagny dies, she will suspect Erik. And she will not excuse Erik from your crimes; if she believes either of us is involved, it is Erik's heart she will break."
*He stopped and peered at her.*
"Why should you want him 'out of the picture'? Does he not pose a possibility of Christine' s leaving Erik for good?"

"Well, how long ago did the thing with Christine happen? Where am I in the timeline? Because honestly, it might mean that I've actually had it in for the fop longer than you have!"

((I have no idea!))
*Erik's eyes drifted up as he thought.*
"I thought I was dead for a time, so it must have been... A few months?"
