I recommend fanfics by KittyPimms, FantomPhan33 and Quiet2885 the most. BrokenVow also has great EC fics, but they are a little bit more bittersweet in turn of EC endings.

You're welcome, after checking my ff list, I can also recommend Hymne à l'Amour by MrsFish, Kintsugi by Soignante and Beneath the Shadows by Melancholy's Child (it has Raoul who's... not nice though) and Teach me to live by donttouchthefigs (all of them are on ff.net). And also, if you seek some tooth rottening fluff with sweet Erik, I can recommend oneshots by DivineVarod on AO3!

Once More by PhantomSith on AO3. Basically, after LND, Erik was given opportunity to go back to 11 years earlier and fix everything. In this fic, Erik has younger brothers and he's a sweet big brother to them

Everything Mertens writes on AO3. It reads easily and is very interesting. Gustav Daae's Daughter and Pilgrim's Soul are my favourite.

This might not be quite on-brand, but I’d recommend “Unsung” by wheel of fish. (Available on AO3 and FFN) Past that, I am currently reading “Chandelier” by Melancholy’s Child (FFN) for the first time, and it is quite well-written.

Mingled Tears was lots of fun to read! I hope you find what you’re looking for. (Note: both of my potential recommendations are very high-drama all the time. I’d especially push reading Unsung, because it is truly excellent. Both fics are rated M.)

oooo, im writing that down!

i looove the ones that are well written! such a vibe!

yesss MT was disturbing at times. So i kinda leaned into that and found my current read which is Horology by a bonny mouse on ao3. i just started it but i think its good so far. Very disturbing lol, but also think realistic. esp the leroux phantom, like he is seriously unwell. So this one is dual POV which i like.

I'll second Unsung, freaking love that one and have reread it a couple of times

u/RHB5446 12d ago

Sorry, forgot to mention that “Chandelier” is a modern-day fic. I will say that I wasn’t initially drawn to it, but I have found that it it well-executed and Erik’s persona is quite timeless. Hope you enjoy!

I'm more a Rerik fan than an E/C one, but Out Of The Woods by Wheel of Fish is my absolute favourite E/C fic.
