Yesssssssssssss!

It's Tuesday again. Last week SO MANY of you stopped by to love Kristen with me. It was SO AWESOME. This week, I'm appreciating Kristen's derriere. She thinks she has a flat ass. I disagree. She has a perfect ass. It always look so good--in jeans, in dresses, in shorts. I can go on and on, but I won't. I'll just post some pictures and some gifs and I hope you share your favorites too. Oh, and tell me where you're from, what your deal is, etc. If you're comfortable enough, share your names. Or make some up. Idk. I'll stop now.

Bubbly90 made this collage. She's awesome. I am stealing it and using it here.

And SuperKannen found this gem. The song. LMAO. It's amazing.

I'll post my favorites in the comments!

Anyone else having problems reading updates on fanfiction.net?  For the last couple days, my favorites list has been going spastic, deleting and reposting the same updates.  When I go to read one, it almost always say, 

"Chapter not found. Please check to see you are not using an outdated url.
New chapter/story can take up to 15 minutes to show up."

... but this will go on for way more than 15 min.  Is this happening to anyone else or is it just me?

Salutations!  

First, I wanted to thank everyone for their participation in the fic lists we have compiled to date.  Y'all are wonderful.  

Links:

AU - Lemony Goodness

Canon - All Kinds

AH - Lemony Goodness

Wolfpack Prose

Angst & Heartfail

If this is your first look at one of our compilations, this is the goal:

We are compiling several lists of recommended fan fiction in a variety of categories.  These lists can then be "searchable" by clicking on the Compass icon at the top of the page and searching for a certain kind of campfire, for example.  Additionally, if someone asks, "I really want to read a good_____________________ story! What do you recommend?" We can send them to a pre-made list!  

In order to find these lists again, you should favorite them.  You do this by punching the pink heart next to the title of the fire.  You can only see this heart when the fire is part of the generality of campfires. Once you are "in" it, you'll have to get "out" again before you can favorite it. Once you have a favorite campfire, you can find ALL of your favorites by clicking on the campfire icon on the toolbar and then clicking on the My Favourites link.  (Yep, our web guru is a Canadian! Thank you, JOHN!)  Then, whenever you are looking for this or any other of your fave campfires, you can click right on it from this list.

Okay! So much for being all technical and stuff! 

* * *

Today, we are compiling the Rated T fic list.  Bring on your favorite fics, AU or AH, that are rated T for Teen or PG, or PG-13.  Angst, fluff, HEA or no, we want them all.

Remember the Rules of the Campfire!   Keep it simple, people.  And no discussions.  Just list your fics and move along.

And remember...if you find other fics in the future for this or ANY OTHER OF OUR LISTS, you can always go back to that campfire and either add a new reply OR edit the one you've already left! :)  It's really easy!

My recs will be inside, as always. 

Thanks again for your help in compiling the Rated T list!

I'm so upset that Rob-n-Tom (one entity) is not on this list!!!
 

Okay, so I usually never do stuff like this, but...

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5852805/1/Beyond_the_Seventh_Circle 

AU/AH. He's the predator. She's the weak human girl who seems to be his next meal...

But is it really that simple?

Reviews are ALWAYS appreciated.

Not that I'm begging or anything.

(If this breaks any ADF rules, rangers feel free to delete.)

Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!! Portrait of a Girl Updated!!!!!

I think I said it enough? Come inside and share your thoughts about this update. I just found this story and I love it!!!  Here is the linky--->http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5061598/16/Portrait_of_A_Girl

So has anybody read the magnificent NIGHT HUNTRESS SERIES! I think I am in love with Bones....he reminds me of a seksi-er Spike from Buffy. 

It's like the good writing of vamp books with the smutty fanfiction mixed in! I am absolutely obsessed with Bones and boy, oh boy, do I wish somebody referred to me as "kitten"

So I was wondering, is there an actor in your head that would play Bones? I can't think of anybody, and it is driving me bananas!

Let me know what you think of the series! 

For your fabulous time:

This is Matt Bomer, and he is one FINE man.
 

um, excuse me.

i know we're all busy people and that we're all very friendly, but apparently, a lot of you are either ignoring the rules or are unaware that they exist, so please, do not make me go around private messaging people.  (re-)familiarize yourself with the regulations of the forest!

1) rules are posted using the handy-dandy ranger station icon (the one that looks like a circus tent waving a flag next to a naked cowboy stick figure)

2) do not curse in your campfire.  in the comments, totally fine.  but please, not everyone appreciates your potty mouth in large/colorful font (so i've been told) on the front page.  

3) if it's not twilight/harry potter/true blood/vamp/werewolf/etc -related, you need to get permission from a ranger (the ten of us can be reached via the smokey the bear icon).  you also need to put "this was approved by scary purple lady/the wino/wnv the breaking dawn champion/etc" in the original campfire.  if you're unsure, it sure doesn't hurt to ask.

4) this isn't a rule so much as a suggestion, but for the love of david boreanaz, stop informing everyone you have copies of pulled fics.  i still get private messages from the ticked-off authors of said fics.  please, stop bringing grief onto your rangers.  by all means discuss these stories.  but dude, do you really want to incur the wrath of some of those people?  

5) if this doesn't make sense, feel free to get a hold of any of the rangers and ask for clarification. no need to apologize, no need to delete anything.  just.... remember, this website is what you make of it, and these rules help keep the peace, maintain the trees, and keep all of you knee-deep in pretty, pretty pictures.

hot, classic, and timeless leo thanks you for your time.

Yeah, we all know-Monday sucks (most of the time, right? There are a few exceptions, I know.)  What better way to make it less sucky than to introduce-

Robert Pattinson Mondays!! (lol...sorry, not very original on the name there)

I'll start off with a fraction of my RobPorn.  I apparently have a ton of this, as I've recently found out OMG don't tell my husband. He's already jealous of my background!

Mmm, Rob in bed is ALWAYS good!

Wet too.  Very yummy!

I <3 happy Rob XD

Mmmm, can't have a post like this without that delish tongue!

This photo always does bad things to me...

Hobo Guitar playing Rob..:D

Please post anything Rob related!

Do you write a fan fic?

Post excerpts from your upcoming chapters here! Put impatient minds to rest and give a sneak peek at your goodies!

Don't forget to include a link!

I was happily and speedily rushing, rushing, rushing to read the update of The Hood by yogagal and surprise! it's an 'I love you' chapter but not just any 'I love you' chapter.....the best one I've ever read in fanfiction.

I'm not goin to post the excerpt because if you haven't read it, that would suck everything out of it...but I was curious...what is your favorite 'I love you' scene???

What makes them good?

What makes them extra, extra good? A lemon? yea i'd say so.... but I wanna know what you think...

show me the L-O-V-E

You really love meh?

-.-

I'm back! Well, I've been back.  Anyway, the plan was to post this on FFFA but that didn't happen (mainly because I didn't realize how many pictures we took-oops!).  So, here's the recap-and a few pics will be in the comments cause I don't want to clog up the feed.

Day 1: Drove to Bratislava and went to the castle.  It's closed for renovations so we only got to see the outside and the grounds (what wasn't torn up).  The church was also being renovated on the outside, so no pics of that either.  From there we drove to Budapest and had dinner before going on a cruise of the Danube.  It was so amazing- I would recommend it to anyone if you have a chance to go on it, so worth the price (I think it was like $20 a person).  We went at night and it was just beautiful. Pictures don't do it justice.

Day 2: Went and saw the castle and walked around the castle grounds and went to see the church as well.  It was really hot so we went to lunch to cool down where I tried beef tartar and foie gras paté (I try almost everything once. Honestly.)  Learned that Budapest is actually 2 cities that are split by the Danube river-Buda and Pest (pronounced 'Pesht').  Hung out at the bar on the corner trying to connect to the free wi-fi which was spotty.

Day 3: drove to Bosnia which was really interesting.  Some of the houses you could still see the bullet holes in the sides (in Croatia and Bosnia both).  Bosnia wasn't the third world country I thought it would be, but there was a huge difference between the houses, much like in Croatia, there was extreme wealth and extreme poverty.  Tried frog legs at the restaurant at the hotel which were okay.

Day 4: Went to Pula and checked out one of the last standing colosseums which was amazing.  Checked out several beaches and had amazing yummy ice cream :)  Which if you can, try European ice cream.  It is the best stuff ever. Literally.

Day 5: Checked out and drove through Slovenia.  Had lunch in Bled, which was absolutely gorgeous.  Drove through Austria and Southern Germany and got home at around 10 PM.

And again, pic teaser in the comments.  I'll post the link to my Flickr account too so anyone that wants to can check it out :)

This post was approved by Grown.Ass.Woman <3

EDIT: I forgot to add that coming out of Bosnia I attempted to take a picture at the border and the guard/police guy started yelling at me and looked like it was about 5 seconds away from shooting me. Yeah, all the crazy ass stuff happens to me.

And husband laughed at me because I had like 9000 Hungarian Forint and 400 Croatian Kuna in my wallet, and a one dollar bill. *eye roll*
 

Pants monday is pants. So imagine how happy i was to find my unopened photojojo email from last week!

Kristen Stewart was spotted BOWLING over the weekend at SHARX in Montreal and posed for a pic with fans

An Extra on the Water for Elephants set had some nice things to say about my stalker Robert Pattinson (source):

The cast, namely Robert, Reese and Christoph were truly amazing. Each one truly genuine and kind. Working with two Oscar winners and a future Oscar winner was amazing. Robert Pattinson will show the world with this movie his versatility and depth as an actor. The fight scenes between Robert and Christoph were true genius. Both on the part of the actors and the fact they did the fights themselves.

i can not wait for this movie omg

~On average, there are 178 sesame seeds on each McDonalds BigMac bun.

Tell me something good, Campers...

Good morning and Happy (?) Monday!

I was going to suggest that we compile the Fluffy list, but thought...nah... Y'all might prefer ANGST for Monday, seeing as how it IS Monday... Angst it is!

Looking for your favorite stories that seem to offer no hope, for that is what angst is.  Stories that tear you apart in pure heartfail, causing despair that the story will ever right itself.  Sad, sad stories that may or may not end in an HEA.  All Human, Alternate Universe, any rating... Let's put together a searchable list for anyone looking to feel the pain!

To date, we have compiled lists for:

AU - Lemony Goodness

Canon - All Kinds

AH - Lemony Goodness

Wolfpack Prose 

Just in case anyone needs the links!

Rules of the Campfire 

1. Keep It Simple. We're not pimping fics nor writing commercials for them. Just the title, author and author's summary/info from the site where the fic is posted.

2. No Discussion. When someone clicks on this thread in the future, it should just read like a long list of the best of the stories we recommend, here.

Remember to punch that heart to mark this as a favorite so you can find it again!

My first recs will be within, like always.

Thanks for working to provide a list of Angst and Heartfail fics!

So I want to know if anyone has found a Beta reader on fanfiction.net, or if your a Beta helping someone who found you on fanfiction.

What I want to know is:

How did this work out for you? Was it good, bad or downright UGLY??

Do you prefer to find a Beta this way or use someone you know?

Thanks for your help!! 

Okay, it's another Eclipse promotional interview.  But she looks rested and so pretty in blue; she makes some fresh comments.
