French campers

Wednesday May 5, 2010 at 5:35 AM

Okay, so me and my friend made a totally impulsive decision and bought some tickets to Paris yesterday night at 3AM, a bit tipsy. We're leaving tonight, I'm actually packing as I speak, well, kinda. So I just wanted to send a shout out to fellow French campers, because I know there are a few, to see if you'd like to meet up. My friend said not to bother because the French are unfriendly (even though it was his idea to go to France in the first place) but the French campers I encountered in the forest were anything but, in fact they seemed very, very nice and helpful. So, since we had so many American meet ups, maybe it's time for an European one, right?

I'm staying until Saturday night, and since the planning involved in it was relatively low zero, I don't really have a schedule, we can agree on any time really.  So, PM me your email and we'll discuss the details.

I feel kinda wild now ;)

Good, completed T fics

Wednesday May 5, 2010 at 3:11 AM

Hi everyone!

I am usually an M rated fic kind of girl. I like a good lemon or two and some bad language thrown into the mix. Life is M rated.

However... I have really enjoyed a couple of great T rated fics. CarmelinaGunn wrote some wonderful ones, and I am currently addicted to Introduction to Swirl and Daisy.

I would like to read more T rated stuff, mix things up a little. I try to fic dive, but always end up reading things that seem to have been written by 12 year olds.

So, what I am asking for is recommendations to your favourite T fics.

(I would prefer completed, >60k, B/E, AH or Canon, but am open minded!)

Eclipse: Felix by day! But by night... Felicia?

Wednesday May 5, 2010 at 12:49 AM

We've all seen the stills of the Mighty Morphing Denim Rangers!, the dodgy wigs, the odd tweaks between the films, that you look at and think... Pero qué coño? But this one, this one takes the cake for me. This is for the ladies at ALASL, who broke me with an email chain yesterday. Because they showed me this from the offishul Eclipse website...

 OHAI Felix!

and I only see this...

  I've never smooshed video together, so I know, it's atrocious editing, but... it had to be done - Damn near pee my pants though!

Edit: Show me what other awful FAILS you've come across with the promosplosion! Show me your horror! ;)

Inexperienced

Lately I've encounter fics that have an Edward with sexual experience (not man whore Edward) a lot of it at times and I find that Bella is either a virgin or has zero to none experience with even kissing. IDK but this pisses me off. What is so wrong with Bella having fun too? Why can't she have the same amount of experience as Edward?

Feel free to discuss and prove me wrong, or rec a fic that has a good experience Bella that can match up to all the fics where Edward decides that he is the king of the universe and sleeps with every single girl in Forks/Seattle/Chicago, etc.

Driving...

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 11:56 PM

Oh hai.

So, I very recently started driving lessons. I've had 8 lessons and until yesterdays lesson, it was all going OK. Not perfect, but who can expect that, right?

Last night's lesson was... bad. It was my first one during rush hour. I started off OK but then stalled at a mini roundabout. I made the mistake of looking in my rearview mirror to see some woman who was clearly in a rush yelling and making rude hand gestures at me. After that I went into a complete panic and made stupid mistakes that I hadn't made since my second/third lesson (buggering up the clutch, stalling, not turning far enough for sharp corners etc). Everywhere I went, there were more people yelling at me, beeping, overtaking even when I was at the speed limit. It made me SO nervous that I ended up making more mistakes and ended up going home and crying at my mum for ten minutes.

Please share your driving lesson stories. Give me advice. Reassure me that these people are, in fact, a**eholes.

WTVOC  has already given me some lovely advice which I'm going to take advantage off hopepfully.

 

And remember, seasoned drivers - be nice to learners. We're a terribly nervous brand of person and we don't mean to get in your way :( Every lesson so far, I've received nothing but abuse from other drivers.

Wikipedia: Random Research

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 7:51 PM

I don't know if you're like me, but everyday I manage to read at least 4 random articles on Wikipedia.  More often than not, I'll be reading an article and referencing another in order to make sure I fully understand the topic--but regardless, the topics are always really random.

 

Show me what you're reading/have read recently, and tell me what you've learned!

 

Example:  I currently have open the following articles:

Lilith - Adam's first wife, as in Eve was the second woman created.  She left Eden after Adam refused to treat her as an equal.  She's the first feminist!

Samael - Married Lilith...and also slept with several angels who symbolize prostitution (and you thought prostitutes didn't have angels!)  He is often considered a fallen angel and conveys a sense of God's severity.

Uther Pendragon - Father of King Arthur--slept with the wife of his enemy, Gorlois, and impregnated her as Gorlois was killed by Uther's soldiers.

Sub-Roman Britain - An archeological period in Britain during the 5th and 6th century.  Predates Anglo-Saxon period.

Crohn's Disease - An inflammatory disease of the gastro-intestinal tract that has no cure, merely treatment for the associated symptoms.

Mike Mizanin - Hot ass man who was on Real World-New York.  His alter ego, The Miz, is a professional wrestler. While I don't give a shit about wrestling, the profession promotes a lot of shirtlessness--ie allows me to oggle his sexy arms, shoulder, back, and chest.  RAWR.

Badgley Mischka - Designers whose fashions have been described as "red carpet ready."  They've made an appearance on Project Runway on the garden-wear episode on Season 2.

Tasha Yar - Hideous bitch Lieutenant stationed on the USS Enterprise on Star Trek: The Next Generation.  Luckily for the series and viewing audience Lieutenant Yar was killed in the line of duty before the end of the first season in the episode, "Skin of Evil."

 

 

This post has been brought to you by the letter "W," as in wolvesnvamps.

And yay for my first campfire.

Twilight picspam

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 7:10 PM

I'm writing an AU. It's an alternate Midnight Sun. I need some inspiration. Can you guise picspam me with Twilight stuff? Personally, I feel the Twilight movie >>> New Moon. And also, it kind of puts me in Twilight mode, maybe because I saw the movie before I read the books. SO LET'S GET NOSTALGIC, SHALL WE? Don't you guise miss the days when Jasper's wig wasn't such a hot mess? I'll start:

Extra points for forearm porn.

Love Post

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 7:01 PM

One of our campers is in serious need of a laugh or two (and the Cullen boys - especially Edward - would also be helpful)

Our very own Lady Jane is suffering from a serious case of life kicking her in the butt RN.

Lets show her in true camper fashion just how much we care about our own.

Post something to put a smile right back on her face.

Lady Jane, I <3 you bb and you'll get through this.

NERD ALERT!!

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 5:15 PM

OK, I'm a grown up now.  So what!  I love all things Twilight.  But, seriously off topic...Harry Connick Jr is on American Idol and the kids are singing the classics.  I'm loving life.  Please don't judge.  Jump on in the crazy pool with me and let's swim to the deep end!!

This may be a bit early...

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 4:35 PM

But has anyone heard anything about the Eclipse soundtrack?


I can't remember how soon before NM came out before they had the line up announced, but I was thinking that there should be some rumors or something by now.


Also, does anyone have a good idea on what they think would be on the soundtrack or better yet what they would like to see?

AU or Cannon Recs

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 2:14 PM

So finals are over after this week *party!* and I would like to celebrate by kicking back and reading some high quality Twific.  This is the best place to get a variety of recs, and this is what I'm looking for:

- AU or Cannon (not AH)

- Bella-centered

- Bella in character

- Bella/Anyone

 

My own personal rec that meets these criteria: Hide and Drink by Savage. She writes my favorite AU Edward in the entire world. He's an adorable nut. ^_^

I need ideas!

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 12:28 PM

Some of you might know that my best friend is getting married at the end of june...

She won't have a big ceremony, just what you guys call "going to the City Hall" and a party (no church) so there's no "bridesmaid" title, but I get to be the Witness of the C.H. ceremony, which we will say it's the equivalent (shhhh, you just humor me!)

The thing is... I need to plan her bachelorette party, and I HAVE NO IDEA.

Please, fill this campfire with great ideas, anecdotes, and things you would have like to do or have done to you in your bachelorette party!

So this was made for me for my birthday last year.

I completely forgot about it until Emily(prettiestflower on twitter and eaw0216 on LJ) just linked it to me on twatter.

I thought I'd share, because I almost peed my pants laughing.

 

 

ENJOY

Another round of name that fic

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 10:03 AM

So I read this fic a REALLY long time ago, I cant remember the name (obvs) I cant even remember if I even liked it but this scene wont get out of my head and its driving me insane.

So the only thing I remember was that the whole gang (well at least most of them) went to a ski resort (for a class trip or personal vaca I cant remember). Bella liked Edward I cant remember how he felt. But the scene I remember is

Edward is in a basement with a bunch of other kids, and they are all getting high and drunk. Bella finds them and Edward is being an ass and teasing her about being goodie and what not(I think) so she smokes and drinks. Then I think Edward gets mad and leaves and she follows him and they end up messing around on a bench or something. IDK. Im pretty sure Alice and Jasper where in the basement too.

Thats all I remember. Thanks a bunch for any one that knows anything.

OLDER ROB is so hot... but what kills me the most about this, is that after this movie comes out, we're supposed to believe he's a 17yr old vampire again in BD?  LMAO

Looking for a fic

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 9:02 AM

So I started reading a fic a long time ago but it wasn't finished and I wanted to go back and check on it but I don't remember the name.

Edward works in a bookstore with Jasper (I think they own it together) in Seattle.  Bella is living with (and I think engaged to Michael who is wealthy).  Edward notices Bella in his bookstore, she comes in regularly. She's always dressed impeccably.  I don't remember all the details, but he takes her to the best pizza place in the city and she confides in him about feeling trapped.  She didn't grow up wealthy and it wears on her.  Anyway, they start a semi relationship while she's still engaged to Michael.  One day she is walking and calls Michael to pick her up then she goes into the store and up to Edward's upstairs apartment.  Mike sees them in the window kissing.  She ends up going to Chicago to stay in a place Jasper owns to figure out what she wants.  Edward intends to give her space but ends up going to Chicago to see her anyway....

Does any of this sound familiar to anyone?  Thank you so much!

Campers, Show Me Your Cast

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 8:58 AM

There's something that's been bugging me lately. No worries, though, it's twilight-related. My inner-voice began to question whether I should picture certain characters the way I do. I mean, I see KStew as my Bella - always, for some reason - and RPattz as my Edward - self-explanatory - but what do you guys see? I'm more curious about the minor characters, if I'm being honest. Do people see the same thing I see? Do people see something better than me? Then I have to know, because I want to see it too.

So give me pics of your Twilight cast, campers. It can be any character. Lauren, Jessica, Ben. It can be a celebrity or it can be a model or it can be somebody you know in real life. But if you don't see any of those things when you read, then what do you see? Blurred faces? Do you not picture at all? What is that you do and see? I am honestly curious. I'll show you mine. Go ahead, laugh at my cast, I don't care. Let's discuss.

My Victoria (Isla Fisher):

My Leah (Megan Fox . . . what, you don't see it or something? Good, then tell me):

My Rosalie (Amber Heard):

My Alice (Jessica Stroup):

My Tanya (Lindsay Lohan, I really don't know where this came from):

Entertain me Forest

Tuesday May 4, 2010 at 8:08 AM

It's Tuesday, my allergies are going haywire, and I am exhausted from lack of sleep.  I could sure use a good giggle to fire me up for the afternoon.

So with that said...let's play a silly little game, ff style.

1. If you could have any vamp power, what would it be?

2. if you had 20 minutes with Jasper's wig, what would you do to it?

3. What canon backstory or missing moment do you ever wonder about?

4. Is there a ff question you've ever wanted to ask an author? If so, tee it up, maybe you'll get  a response.

And finally

5. show me something pretty...
