Let's share some funny!

Let's have a laugh on this Friday.  Post jokes, pictures, videos, whatever you got!  I just read a great email that nearly had me in tears.  I'll post it inside!  

Come on!  Come inside!

Free for all you say? well I'll use it to pimp what I post here on ADF (But at the bottom I'll give you a rec).

First of all, I have posted the last chapter of Eros & Psyche. Here is the Saturnia's walterfall where the story ends.

Then I tell you that next week I'll start posting The Archer. 5 chapters in all, no vampires, but surely supernatural.

I have a blinkie for it, made by Raum, but I have to post it inside (No nudity, they say...) Enjoy

And now, the rec. It is an one shot by Anna Lund. Very funny, but also a punch in the gut. (and it could open a serious discussion)

My little sister http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7621190/1/

Summary: My brilliant little sister Bella. (Jasper POV). Vamp. Canon pairings.
Slightly OOC. Rated T. No mature content, except for regular vampire stuff.
Yeah, that means no lemons. Deal with it.

Happy Free For All Campers!

Post whatever you want during free for all.  It's all good as long as the front page is clean and you don't attack anyone.  

Fertilize the forest trees by giving those ads on the top/side a click or two. 

Tell me what you're up to this weekend and share with me a song that's been stuck in your head and just won't vacate the premises.  

Here's mine:

Have a wonderful weekend! xoxo

So I finally broke down and went to see Breaking Dawn last night. There were only 2 people in the theater including myself...and the other one was some random dude!

If you, like me, are late to the party as always, come in and talk about the movie. My remarks will be in the comments.

Ok, so I know that this campfire may not be completely legal in the realm of supernatural fanfiction, but I really dont know who else to ask! Everyone here is always so helpful with recs and there has to be ample amounts of you, on both sides of the pond, who can weigh in on this one!

I stumbled across an old episode of "Queer as Folk" the other day and I was completely sucked in! (pun completely intentional) OMG! Where the hell have I been?
What was I doing in the year 2000 that I never watched this show?! Oh... yeah, havin babies and such. 

Well, now that my time is my own and my laundry pile needs a tv show playlist, I am asking my hubbie for the complete series box set for Christmas! Im so excited!

My Question is: American version or British version??  Is one better than the other? Are the cast of guys in one hotter than the other? I'm an American livin in the South yall, but I do love me some saucy Brit speak.

Give me your opinion!! THANKS!!

Saw this article and thought it relavant since some people here blog. In ten words or less:

 http://blogs.seattleweekly.com/dailyweekly/2011/12/crystal_cox_oregon_blogger_isn.php

LOOKS LIKE BLOGGERS ARE NOT CONSIDERED JOURNALISTS, AND SOME ARE GETTING LAWSUITS AS A RESULT OF THEIR POSTS.

I am curious on your thoughts and how this effects blogging. I also wonder if this effects "Gossip Blogs". I think it is about time they are seperated from journalists. People are forgetting the Internet does not have a high validity or relabilty factor...anyone who can read can post. I am not sure but I am guessing the average readability (an equation you use to determine the reading level of a passage) is about seventh grade level (that is analyzing health related websites so it is probably lower on average daily sites). That means if you can read above a seventh grade level you can post and read on the Internet. That is great that it is accessible to so many but too many people BELIEVE EVERYTHING THEY READ! ESPCIALLY ON TWITTER TWATTER!

ANYWAY...WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS...I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR AND DEBATE...NICELY OF COURSE IT IS THE HOLIDAY SEASON! 

I JUST WATCHED CHARLIE BROWN AND KEEP THINKING SCHROEDER IS THE EDWARD OF THE GROUP. LUCY IS ROSALIE TO A T AND SALLY'S HAIR SO SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALICE'S IN THE MOVIE....I AM THINKING MY LOVE OF THIS FANDOM IS GETTING INSANE!

With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, I think it is a great time to sit back at night with a relaxing adult beverage and START A NEW FANFIC...

What are you reading?

What is the ULTIMATE escapist fic?

What type of fic is your GUILTY PLEASURE?

Since I think some people may have been confused by the help desk yesterday, if you would like help with finding a fic or recs you can put that in here as well. I think my information on the holiday help desk was unclear. Sorry for that! 

Give us links and tell us why you love what you are recc'ing!

ok guys this is my first campfire so i don't know if i'm doing this right but here it goes..... 

ages ago i started reading come a little closer baby  http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5275398/1/  i totally loved it as it seems to have a new take on E/B Having a baby.   

First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes...a baby carriage? Bella and Edward both enjoyed their child-free life. What happens when one of them has a change of heart? AH,BxE,M SPOILER-  It's Bella that's not ready for babies!!

it's been like a year since an update  so  do guys know either why there is no update or if there are any other fan fics out there which are similar????

Or do you feel the same?

Tell us what's going on in your world today campers!

I'm looking for a fic I read (I think) over the summer.

Bella and Edward were friends throughout high school, and planned to road trip to LA after graduation.  Edward's dad dies before they can and he tells Bella to go on her own while he stays home to take care of his mom and Alice.  Some-odd years later, Bella returns and is the star of a show somewhat like The O.C.  

Ring any bells?

Hmm... for your time, here's a rec:

Neutral Buoyancy » by PiedPiperOSIB 

In 1659, Marcus Volturi's wife was kidnapped. 350 years later, Edward Masen is hired to uncover what happened. Edward's quest uncovers more than he bargained for as love, family, history, and treachery collide during one unforgettable summer. AU-AH.
Twilight - Fiction Rated: M - English - Romance/Action/Adventure - Chapters: 11 - Words: 87,913 - Reviews: 235 - Updated: 11-6-11 - Published: 7-10-10 - - Edward/Bella

And for you hunger games fans out there, check out the Five Loaves of Bread Series by aimmyarrowshigh.  They're different AU oneshots (there's three so far) and utterly heart wrenching!

Hey Campers!

It's time for our first discussion fire for the last story in this series of shorter vampire fics....

ITHACA IS GORGES by giselle-lx

Come in here and share your thoughts, feelings, etc on chapters 1-10.  

No spoilers in this fire please - we've got lots of first time readers!

Join us back here on Monday to discuss the rest of the chapters and this story as a whole.  

Thanks for participating! 

I have been battling insomnia for a few weeks now. Last night, unfortunately, was a bad night as far as sleeplessness was concerned. Which is why I found myself, at 4 a.m., pondering perceived similarities between American Horror Story’s Tate and Twilight’s Edward. I came up with more of them than I was comfortable with.

Is it just a coincidence that, against all odds, many females are rooting for the Tate/Violet pairing? Is Ryan Murphy poking fun at the most popular male, literary character to come along in many, many years? Or is he just milking a proven formula for all it’s worth?

My observations are in the comments. It is quite possible that this whole comparison will make you think I’m totally smoking crack! I could be way off base. What is your opinion? Why do you think most of us here at ADF fell so hard for a vampire? And what makes so many females so sympathetic towards Tate, when everything we know about him so far indicates that we should hate him instead? WARNING – CONTAINS SPOILERS.

 

Well, wasn't this a busy episode?!!!!!   (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)

Anyone on here fans of the show "The Closer?"  Looks like Papa Swan a.k.a. Billy Burke is returning to the series!

http://www.daemonstv.com/2011/12/07/actor-billy-burke-to-cause-big-trouble-during-final-act-of-the-closer/

As any fan of the long-running TNT drama The Closer knows, actor Billy Burke (of Twilight fame) played Philip Stroh, the one “who got away” from Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson (Kyra Sedgwick).

According to the folks at TV Line, Burke will be back as Stroh for – SPOILER WARNING!!! – the final two episodes (set to air next summer) of the series in a faceoff with Brenda in which she is investigating the makeshift cemetery of a serial killer that will cause Stroh to resurface.

Back at the close of season four of this TNT drama, Stroh was “introduced when the suspect in a series of rapes backtracked on his confession”, pointing a finger as his own attorney instead. At the time and ever since, Brenda could never find enough evidence to actually pin the crimes on Stroh. Since then she has dedicated a room of her and Fritz’s home to tracking the unsolved case.

The next new episode of the limited fall/winter run of ‘The Closer’ will air on Monday, December 12 at 9/8c. The final six episodes of the show’s final season will air next summer.

WHO ELSE IS EXCITED!!??!!!
 

It's time to open up the forest for all of those inquiries you have been dying to make.

SPECIAL NOTE! THIS IS A TRADITIONAL HELP DESK BUT NEXT MONDAY WILL BE THE FIRST OF OUR HOLIDAY HELP DESKS...

For this first Holiday Help Desk in the series, we will be setting the campfire up like an advice column. 

Many of you might not want to post your questions publicly so I am trying something new. PM me your questions and next Monday I will post it under an anonymous account to be answered by fellow campers. That way, people can give you all of the advice you need without you having to fess up that it is you. Of course, you can post using your own name as well.

You can also send me questions that you think lots of people would want answered about the holidays and next Monday when I post, I will comment all of the questions that need answers. 

If you have any questions, just ask. I would be happy to answer them! 

Now we return to our regularly scheduled HELP DESK!

Some things you never forget, they just hurt too much to remember

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7385951/1/Stolen_Secrets_and_Shattered_Dreams

A NYC barman views his mind reading as an isolating cancer, until he meets a lonely 28yr old trying to escape her sad reality. His life is full of harsh lessons. Hers an uphill battle, so she never complains when a beautiful boy treats her badly. EXB AH

And one complete because patiente is not my thing.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5930569/1/Dont_Take_the_Girl

Bella Swan met her match the day her father agreed to take Edward Cullen on a fishing trip with them. Little did they realize that a few simple hours on an old fishing boat could change the course of their lives forever.

The more I listen to the audiobook the more convinced I become that book Bella is, sadly, kinda bitchy. Not just the relatable weirdo we all know and love, but, like, not nice, yk? I know so many people, who'd read the books before seeing the movie, are upset with the way she was portrayed in Twilight, but, idk, I really MUCH prefer her in the movie than in the book. Opinions?
