Summary:

Now, I love every single one of the Twilight characters, especially angsty, overprotective Edward, but let's face it - sometimes they can go overboard. This is a parody of the characters' personalities.

I actually want to lick you right now. Is that weird? I hope that's not weird. But yeah. This is fucking hilarious. I would pay money to see this performed, swear to god I would. Thanks so much for writing it - seriously, you just made my month. :)

 
Summary:

Bella Swan was your average woman working for a publishing company. She was certain that she was destined to be alone for eternity, much to her mother's dismay. However, two very different yet very similar men happen to walk into her life and change everything.

Hilarity and sex ensue. Loosely based on the movie, "Bridget Jones’s Diary".

An awesome collaboration between XShear (Seducing Edward, Unknown & Smut Series) and kARLOTITA09 (Forever is Where We Meet).

Okay, I call MEAN. Mean mean mean! You can't give us a little tiny taste of Bella getting double-teamed by the Edwards and then just... cockblock us! That is just mean. However, I love how this story is progressing (even without the Edward!Bros!Afternoon!Delight)... thank you so much for writing!

 
Disc Jockeys by casket4mytears Rated: NC-17 starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 371]
Summary:

Disc Jockeys

2009 Nominee, Best AU AH, Most Romantic Moment, Indie TwiFic Awards

2009 Nominee, Character You Wish Was Real (Jasper), The Faithful Shipper Awards

A small-town music store... Several music-obsessed slackers with a penchant for sexual misadventures, disastrous love lives and a little too much alcohol... Customers with horrible taste in CDs... Thousands in missing cash deposits... and Carlisle's not even supposed to be here today!

Disc Jockeys is the story of Velvet Records, one of the few remaining independent music stores in Washington State. From shoplifters to has-been singers, from franchise threats to the complicated love lives of the inhabitants within, the employees of Velvet handle it all, under the watchful gaze of Carlisle, their long-suffering manager.

This AU, AH is a spoof of Empire Records blended with healthy cynicism of the Clerks vein. If you haven't seen Empire Records, have no fear; this fic assumes you haven't the faintest idea what "Damn The Man - Save The Empire!" means (but SEE IT because it's an awesome flick).

This fic is rated NC-17 for underage drinking, drug use, sexy naughty times, dark issues including sexual assault and abuse and language. Slightly OOC for some players, canon pairings apply (eventually).

You have officially spoiled me for all men. You bitch! :-P But really, I'm seriously considering running away to a snowy cabin somewhere, waiting for my very own Edward Cullen to show up and throw me down on a twister mat/dining room table. No, really. Really.

Really.

Say, as for any other shenanigans our amorous avalached lovers (I really wanted to keep that alliteration going for you, sorry) could get into, I forget: is there a piano in the cabin? Where our dashing lothario could practice his skills, and by skills, I mean sexin'-Bella-up-on-top-of-a-piano? Even whilst snowed in on vacation, you must keep in practice. ;-)

Thank you so much for writing - whenever you can! - even if you have solidified my future as the crazy lady with 15 cats, all a variation of the name 'Edward.'

 
The List by Laura Cullen Rated: NC-17 starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 13645]
Summary:

Four weeks before her wedding to Edward, Bella is frustrated. She knows there's little-to-no chance of getting him to bend his rules and boundaries now, but there's no harm in fantasizing about what could happen later. So she begins compiling a list of things that she and Edward can do together once they're happily married. She's surprised to find she might be able to cross some things off earlier than she thought...

Story contains mature themes and is not intended for younger readers.

Every time I get an alert in my inbox that this story has been updated, I find myself doing a happy dance around my computer - the sad thing is, I'm totally not exaggerating. This story is so full of emotion, humor, sexytimes, and... awesomeness... that I reread the whole thing every time you update. No joke. It is beyond spectacular, and this chapter is no exception. You take so much care in crafting the storyline and making it perfect, that you could go without updating for months and I would still be indescribably giddy over this story. Thank you so much for taking the time to write for us readers - you are truly appreciated!

*blink* *blink* Um... all coherence has fled me, so I'm afraid this review is going to be pretty useless... and damn, I need to go to work in 5 minutes, with this in my brain! Another spectacular chapter, with another item crossed off the list, right? I loved how tempted Edward was to say 'screw the wedding' (heh, no pun intended), and how Bella managed to bring him back, even though she wanted it as much as he did. Though I am loathe to admit it, I'm glad they decided to wait. The shenanigans they're getting into without fully sealing the deal are certainly more than stimulating! Thanks so much for writing!

Seriously, you call ANYTHING about the delivery of this chapter bad news? Clearly, you and I have sufficiently differing opinions on 'bad news,' because an update with a) sexytimes, b) Edward finding her list and inciting said sexytimes and c) the promise of not only another chapter but also more sexy sexytimes? That is really, really, really not bad news to me. That's... Christmas in April, is what that is. I am amazed at how you consistently deliver such excellent quality of work. Thank you so much for writing!

Holy crap. This is just... freaking HOT. I love the writing style you've employed here, and despite - or perhaps because of - the simplicity (I mean your the 'just-the-facts' style, not that the writing is at all... simple) the connection you've created between these two characters is beyond compelling. I'm going to the next chapter now, but I felt like I needed to review this chapter. This is incredible!

Okay, so somehow... I just totally missed this update. And here it is, February... and I am finally reading this and laughing like an idiot and absolutely loving it. This was the most ridiculously awkward, painfully sweet, and utterly REAL thing I've read in a long time. Good God, do I remember (and still occasionally experience) the awkwardness of crushes, and boys, and boys who may or may not have crushes, and the absolute paranoia and overanalysis and emotional floundering that goes on, and sweet Lord did you capture that, here. Reading this chapter, I was transported back to ninth grade, when I asked Jason Miller if he wanted to go to the dance, and he looked at me and asked, "What, you mean with you?" So... aside from reminding me of that particular trauma of my youth, I absolutely loved this chapter :-P. Sorry that I'm so slow on the update uptake. Thank you so much for writing - this absolutely made my night!



Author's Response:

Thank you :)

I'm glad you're enjoying it, even if it does dredge up some painful memories.

Okay, I'm an utter crap reviewer, but this chapter compelled me to give you SOMETHING. This story is so unique, so touching... it is excellent. I love this less... macabre? telling of a human/vampire pregnancy. Edward's attitude, really, the whole family's attitudes, toward the baby seem so much more in characterfor the people that Stephanie Meyer created. So... I just wanted to drop a line and let you know that I truly appreciate all of the work you've put into this story - it shows, and it definitely pays off!



Author's Response:

Wow, thanks very much.  I'm glad you're enjoying the story and I appreciate your comments and feedback very much.  I always wondered what Edward would be like with a happy pregnancy and that kind of prompted this story.  Thanks again!

This chapter was absolutely hilarious. My favorite line? "My father was a baby shower enabler! And now the wolves wanted to show support for the half vampire, half human baby. It was like being in a parallel universe. I needed a moment." Hehe. And the boys were just too funny. This is such an excellent story! Thank you so much for writing!

Summary:

What if Bella hadn't moved her junior year with her father.  Instead she moved with her mother to Florida.  Upon visting her father before leaving for college she encounters two members of the Cullen Family.  Alice's vision tells her that Bella would change their lives forever. 

Edward's first encounter with Bella is 30,000 feet in the air on the way to Darthmouth.  With no means of escape will he be able to resist the temptation of her blood?  Or will he bring the whole plane down for a taste?

  ~Edward's POV: Chapter 2

 

I closed my eyes to listen to the tones of voices around me. I heard at least one hundred passengers. It would be a massacre. Could I really justify destroying all the lives of everyone on this plane just to taste her blood?

Okay, first of all, I let out a gleeful (really loud) FUCK! whilst reading this chapter. You know why? My real name is Molly Kate. So... I was really excited when I read the baby's name, thus prompting the loud expletive that probably woke my family from sleep. If for any reason you ever need a nickname for the little bugger, my family called me Tater Tot. And Thunderthighs, but that had less to do with my name and more to do with my rolls of baby fat.

E.J. is absolutely adorable. He was such a real little kid! Get little kids started on Pokemon... "And there's this one and he does this, and there's this one and he does this, and this yellow one does this..." but they're cute and adorable so you let them ramble. Will E.J. ever get revenge on Uncle Edward? The whole family scene was excellent!

As to the comment that some feel this is going too fast? In RL, it might be ill-advised and impulsive. But... this is teh Edward/Bella, and they just... work.

You are fabulous, and thank you for writing. If you put more of that baby in the story somehow, I may just run around my neighborhood in my pajamas at midnight. Geez this was a thoroughly useless review. you get cookies just for making it all the way through. ;-)



Author's Response:

This was so NOT a useless review! You made me laugh!  My best friend from high school named her daughter Molly Kate--that was the first time I had heard it and I loved it, so it popped into my head when I was thinking of a name for Kate and Garrett's baby. And don't feel bad--my family called me Butterball when I was a baby because of my fat little legs.

And the Pokemon Kid? That's my son and he is completely obsessed. He's the model for E.J. and his conversational skills. You're right about the rambling. Sometimes it's cute and sometimes I have to beg for mercy. :) Oh and E.J. did get revenge remember? He shot Uncle Edward with a Super Soaker full of ice water.

Well, I'm going to have to work Baby Molly Kate into the story some more. Be on the lookout and prepared to run around the neighborhood in your PJs!

Thanks for the great review!

This one time, our car broke down, and my mom gave me a Snickers bar and a can of Coke. I towed the car home. When we got home, I was tired.

Okay, onto the real review! I just can't let a Philip the Hyper-Hypo reference go unlauded. Nor can my favorite imaginary fighting move (the palm-to-forehead, windmill-arms classic, which I implemented when staging an epic girlfight in a production of A Midsummer Night's Dream) go ignored. This whole story is absolutely made of win. The Bella you have created is just... so freaking hilarious. Her inner monologue, aka The Ovaries, is quick-witted, sarcastic, and so smart. Even when under Edward's 'sexytime tractor beam' - which, by the way, is quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever heard.

So... thank you for writing, and for putting up with this ridiculously long and irrelevant review wherein you learned more about me than you ever needed to know.
