NEXT WEEK: BECOMING PARTS 1&2 ARE COMIN' UP.  DEAR GOD, STOCK UP ON KLEENEX AND BE PREPARED TO TURN OFF YOUR PHONES.  HAVE YOUR BEN & JERRY'S FLAVOR OF CHOICE ON HAND.  THE SIMULTANEOUSLY BEST AND WORST SEASON FINALE OF ALL TIME IS A-COMIN'.

FIRST OF ALL, though this post will be Twilight related, today is a very important day for me. It is the 7 year anniversary of Elliott Smith's death. This man was a brilliant musician, and seeing as he helped me through a lot of dark times in my life, I MUST post a video for you all. If you don't know of his music, it's about time you did. [I hope you will allow this, beloved rangers.]

Rest in peace, Elliott. You are missed. "I'm never gonna know you now, but I'm gonna love you anyhow."

Anyone know what happened? There's no note of anything. Everything was completed except for Stealing Second, the sequel to The Fan. And she just completed Bella Swan's Dating Guide.

This week has been hell on things leaving and it's getting me disgruntled. Wait a few days!

Here I am again, looking for interaction with people whose company I enjoy immensely. Join me here with your questions.

But this time, I've got one for you: Why is Edward always such a girl?

Don't get me wrong, girls are swell. But I prefer a male character to be, well... MALE.

I've been professionally procrastinating lately by reading a bunch of fic (or bits of bunches of fic), and I swear to god, if I read one more sentence wherein Edward is extolling the life-changing qualities of Bella's soft hair, I will vomit.

Why can't we have some honest Edwards out there? I want an Edward who acknowledges, at least to his dude friends, that Bella is a good lay -- if only she'd loosen the hell up, maybe they could have some real fun, rather than going to Emmett's house to moan about how just looking at Bella's face in the morning makes him feel like his blood has turned to molten chocolate or some such garbage.

Is it just me? Be honest.

ps: if you haven't already posted in Halo's thread about Robert, go away and do that right now.

You know it's gonna happen. Robert's been too nice to the fans for the last three years. Unlike Kristen's who let off some steam here and there throwing a bird or being a cranky cooch, Rob's been all smiles and "no, the fans are great!" Which only means one thing:

One day, when we least expect it, Rob's gonna flip his wig on fans:

lol xander

spike and some other buffy cast members were posing for pics at dragon con.

Could you see Rob and the rest doing this ten years from now?

me neither.

Does any one know how many chapters left for Beyond Time by TKegl?

I am dying to start reading it, but won't unless it is nearing completion...

Among all the WIP you are following, tell me what is the ONE that makes you drop everything and read it now now now!

come on people, share with us your fav WIP at the moment

Me, I just adore Emmett as a big brother figure.  Maybe it's because I'm a "first born" and never had a big brother and when I thought about it, someone powerful, intelligent and funny would have been PERFECT.

So, to me, EMMETT is the PERFECT BIG BROTHER!  (This does not mean I don't see him as a romance hero -- I do! But he's a great brother!)

Where can we find Big Brother Emmett?  I have a couple of recs, and they'll be within.

Thanks for sharing your big brother Emmett fics around the fire!

P.S. I totally want to thank all of you who have been updating the different lists on the MASTER FIC LIST. I check them out for myself once in a while and it's good to see that some of them have been added to, over the past couple of months. Thank you so much!  

GUYS i need fic-help also.

Edward and Bella are high school geeks who hate eachother due to their competitive natures. Eventually they learn to love eachother etc and i remember one scene whereby a poker chip represents a sexual favour?

Any help muchly appreciated im going insane!

So, lately there has been some understandable frustration/sadness about authors pulling fics (don't get me started, I have enough thoughts on this to write a novel... and pull it halfway through ;)  and the fandom being kind of slow going and so, in the spirit of bringing some freaking happy back to the fandom, I want you to show me your pretty!!!

We all love at least one of the actors or actresses in this series, which means we've all probably photo stalked them on the internet.  Show me your pretty fics, and if possible, make them HAPPY pretty fics.  I mean, I know Rob can pout like a mofo... *gets distracted by avi* ... right, so we know that brooding is hot and all, but I want smiles.  So bring it on!  Rob, Kristen, Taylor, Ashley, Kellan, Nikki, Xavier, Peter... I don't care who, just share the pretty!!!

And because the Vanity Fair shoot is my absolute favorite:

This one's not necessarily happy, but I think it's so funny:

And some Robsten, to finish it out... 'cause they look pretty naturally happy here:

Oh Forest, how I've missed you!

SO, I thought I'd come around with something that I've thought about recently that is sort of silly, but I wanted to discuss other people's opinions/thoughts on the topic.

Please come in here and share your Twilight theories or little nuances that have made you stop and think.

Here's my recent one:

So, if we accept that whole "Twilight vamps CAN get and sustain an erection and produce seminal fluid to get someone preggers" my question stems from there. According to the lexicon (mind you I could be wrong, I'm not THAT well-versed in this stuff) the reason that Edward was able to get Bella pregnant was that when he was changed he was "frozen" as he was. And he had his supply of semen just waiting and raring to go. Sorta like cryogenics I'd assume--once it's in warm little ol' Bella it was good as new again! Now I'm thinking, okay, if I ignore some of those other discrepancies and just go with this idea, that makes sense. Eddie was a virgin when he tapped that, so obvs he was still packing in the "supply" department. But what about the other boys, like Emmett or Jasper or Carlisle for that matter. What if they were to take a romp with a warm body, do you think they'd be able to get their partner preggers? Considering this theory, they'd probably already have run out of stock YEARS ago. AND on top of that, what about that vamp that got that other chick pregnant, you know the one that produced the kid Alice went looking for in Breaking Dawn, didn't they say that that vamp had done a WHOLE bunch of trial and error until he was able to make his kid. So how did he have enough to produce offspring, I'd think his supply would have gone dry too.

Thoughts? Anyone? Any other silly little Twilight stumpers that go through your mind from time to time? Please feel free to share!

Edward and Bella are seriously dating just married, post-college? They go to her home for Thanksgiving/Christmas?? Jake is a really good family friend has an obvious crush on Bella. Edward and Jacob fight outside, Edward accidently pushes Bella off the curb. She breaks her leg.

Anyone know? I pay in sexual favors and Take-Out Coupons.

EDIT: Solved.

The Honeymoon's Over

I just found out there's a Walking Dead Preair available to download! I'm so excited about this!!!

http://www.ev0.in/The.Walking.Dead.S01E01.PREAiR.x264-P2P

For those of you who have no Idea what I'm talking about, it's a mini series about zombies that airs on Halloween. Here's the trailer:

Are you guys as excited as I am? Will you watch it when it airs? :D

To make it more interactive, tell me what you think about Zombie movies, and which are your favorite ones? I love Zombieland and anything by Romero.

 *approved by the lovely Tor*

OK I seen a fic and forgot to add to favs. Anyway it was about Bella on the beach with her dog and found a lost girl. Can't remember her name but she was Edwards daughter and got seperated from them. Turns out Bella was best friends with Jasper and he is married to Alice which is Eds sister. That's all I know. Oh and the little girl loves her dog.

Does this fic sound familar to anyone?

I'm relatively new here, my name is Rachel. *waves*

I'm scrolling through my favorites on FF.net, and I see Finding Bella updated. I squee, because I heart that story, and I go to check it out. Instead, there's an Author's Note ranting about how there's a fic database for people to post fic lists for anyone to use, and she's not happy. She's removed Finding Bella because she feels her story will soon be targeted, and she's already working on publishing an actual novel...so it's something she's not comfortable with.

I've left my thoughts in the comments, for anyone who may be interested. /end rant.

Am I the only one who logged into their email today and had their heart broken when they saw that Oh, Inverted World is not going to be continued any time in the near (or distant, it sounds like) future.  I realize that it hadn't been updated in forever, but hope springs eternal.  Until she updated w/ the A/N saying she was leaving the fandom for an undetermined amount of time, I was still keeping my fingers crossed that she'd continue the story.  Not to mention how excited I was when I saw the notice of an update...only to crash and burn when I saw the title was "The End, For Now."

So, what has broken your heart just a little lately?

ps...she also removed all of the story she had up so far.  if anyone made a copy of it prior to this and wants to send it to me, i'd love you forever.  k?  thanks, bye.

Buffy: Homework.
Willow: It's my way of saying get well soon.
Buffy: You know, chocolate says that even better.
Willow: I did all your assignments. All you have to do is sign your name.
Buffy: Chocolate means nothing to me.

Is this fandom slowing down?  Are things on a downhill slide? 

The forest is still quite lively, but how much of that is driven by our enjoyment of each other's company and how much is driven by our love of all things Twilight?  Lately, it seems to me that my favorite message boards are DEAD.  Likewise my favorite TwiNews sites.  And even though I am still following at least 10 or 15 favorite stories, I'm lucky if I get notificaton of an update once or twice a week.

Am I alone in thinking this, or has anyone else noticed this too?  Do you think interest in the fandom has peaked?  Do you think once production of BD is in full swing, things will naturally pick back up? Did Robsten v. Nonsten kill your Edward and Bella fantasy?  Do you think splitting BD into two movies over two years is a big mistake?

My thoughts in the comments, and here's some pretty for your time!

Hey campfire people! I just bought a new mp3 player and need some good song suggestions. This sucker is going with me to the gym, so I need the stuff that will get my body movin, groovin, and hopefully butt-shrinkin. I like all kinda dance/hip-hop, 'cept the teeny bopper stuff. Also, if you follow me on Twitter, you know how I feel about Keisha? Kasha? Kashi? whatever-her-name-is.

For your trouble...Rob giving good face.

Approved by the awesome littlesecret84 cos she can deny me nothing. True story.
