An amazing chapter! I love the glimpses of future vampires, though I feel sorry for all the Cullens when I think how long the awkward stages are going to last, lol.

I imagine it's going to be very difficult hiding little children who do not appear to age.

If Rosalie's baby is calm and Emmett's is anything like Emmett, then I can see Rose's baby being very observant and consequently talking/tricking Emmett's baby into doing stupid things. Maybe things like eating crayons?

Can't wait to meet the baby vamps next chapter!

Author's Response:

The way I see, vampires measure time in longer increments, so to them, the slower aging balances out with their altered time conception, so the extra awkward years do not seem long to them :)

Thanks for the idea about Rose and Emmett's kids. I'll start thinking about what else they can trick the others into doing!

I think it was a great idea to use two HIV pos kids as the adoptees--the adoption gives them a chance for a longer than normal lifespan (though how normal can a life be when adopted by vampires LMFAO).  I love that you use your pennames for the twins!

Author's Response:

You have it backwards: I needed a penname and had already named the twins, so I stole their names :) And I'm glad you liked the idea of using AIDs babies! Thanks for the review!

Alice's story with her experience with cooking was LOL! If I was Jasper I wouldn't let her use the toaster either!

Author's Response:

Yes, Jasper is too over-protective to let ALice try to cook again :)

I like how you showed Alice interacting with her humans at the end there! And I can so see Rosalie demanding visions of babies from Alice!

Author's Response:

Yes, Rosalie wouyld likely become addicted to Alice's visions :)

Yay! LOL it was funny, I knew my name would be in the story somewhere but when I read it, it completely surprised me! Its not every day that I see MY name somewhere that I havent written it. : ) BTW how in the heck do you pronounce Skxawng? Shawn?

Author's Response:

It always surprises me which names other people ask about. I would have thought someone would have asked me how to pronounce Zikare or Zakaira, given that they both have silent letters in them. But Skxawng is from the movie Avatar, and is pronounce Ska- ow- g., just put those three sounbds into one sylable.

I'm glad you liked seeing your name! Just don't get offended when Rosalie brushes your character off to go play with the baby vampires! I hope you do not mind how I did not make the hosts humans perfect: giving them flaws made them more real to me. And I think they all turned out pretty well in the end...except maybe one...

So if marriage is so frowned upon, the Cullens will draw a lot of attention by admitting that all of the couples are married What story are the other Cullen's telling the humans?

Author's Response:

Good question! Alice and Jasper, as well as Bella and Edward, have not admitted to being married just to avoid the attention it would cause if all of them were married. Esme and Carlisle are a little older, so their marriage is more acceptable in the culture of the future.

woah geez. it seems to be not only the volturi would see this as building an army but to me also. if the cullens wheren't the cullens this would seem sinister

Author's Response:

Well the Volturi will be coming for another visit soon! And when they find out, they will think the Cullens are building an army and declare war. But that is still a ways off.

Thanks for the review!

This was the most complicated adoption yet: the Cullens sure went to a lot of work to get the TB babies.

Author's Response:

Yep, but Carlisle just could not bear to watch all of those dying TB babies and not do anything about it

I'm glad Rosalie got the human babies she wanted! And she only had to wait 200 years. I'd like to see the baby vampires trying to hunt any mice that wander too close

Author's Response:

Well animals in general are going to shy away from the babies, but I'll try to work something like that in!

LOL- Explanating vampiric parasitism as anal probes and alien implantation was hilarious!

Author's Response:

Glad you like the aliens! They are here to stay, as the humans will continue to buy that explanation until their deaths!

Mmm right now I cant think of an embarrasing story about my childhood (selective memory hehe) and I dont think you're interested on any dirt from my parents or siblings (from them and many other family and friends I do remember many)...so I'll call my mom in the morning and ask her what she remembers and I'll get back to you xP I enjoyed reading your story a lot so I feel you earned that piece of honest information =-)

Have a good night,

Daniela

Author's Response:

Thanks! i'm glad you are enjoying the story!

I don't know how you managed to come up with so many stories! Very entertaining.

It sounds like your whole family are entertaining! My little brother was always gatting the best of me because he was stronger. So when he annoyed me, I would take one of his toy cars and bury it in the garden. I don't think he ever knew, but it made me feel better, lol. They are probably still digging them up at our old house!

Author's Response:

I wrote the stories a little at a time: this chapter took me a lot longer than the others for that reason.

Your toy car story sounds really cute :) But you should have given them back to him eventually!

Ha ha, pretending to be aliens!!! PMSL!

He might be a lazy slob, but you have to feel sorry for poor Xavier.

Very clever! I'm always amazed how authors think their way out of situations. (I guess next time I need a story plot I should talk to my Mom - She-of-the-Twisted-Mind, who is brilliant at cryptic crosswords.)

Well, you did warn us the piano would come up again and again, lol. Yep, still funny!

Author's Response:

Xavier may be lazy, but no relative of Alice's could be called a slob! She would never allow it.

I'm glad you still like the piano gag. But, unfortunely Edward will not own a piano for much longer: As soon as Elizabeth arrives, the piano will go...
