Mid-30s guy with an addiction for fan fiction presently, and a slew of unfinished writing in my file cabinet and computer that I never seem to manage to complete full stories. Plots and bits and pieces, sure, but start-to-finish stories still elude me.


Aside from that I'm always over-thinking things, have a science background but love my fiction books... and I guess I'm a twi-guy being here as much as I am lately :S (I own the series and The Host as well). Also a fan of David Eddings and Clive Cussler.


Just starting an Education degree that'll eventually send me out to Middle and Secondary schools to teach math and science (mostly biology, probably).


Oh and my friends just gave me an Edward doll from the Barbie range (he sparkles! lol they didn't realise it at the time either) My Twi-diction is kind of a running joke for them, but their nice enough about it :)

oh man... another cliffie! :)

I wonder if someone, even Victoria is going to show up in the nick of time... or maybe (overly hopeful probably) Aaron is playing possum...

whoa that was some close timing there for Jane! I'm just itching to find out whom the white wolf is! :)

Alright Edward!! Very impressed! Though I'm very disappointed in Jacob and his part in Jane's pain :P

 
Summary:

An old, dilapidated hospital residing in the outskirts of Forks, Washington, sits untouched - other than being the occasional setting of a teenage party. Everyone knows the rumors, and it's because of those rumors rebellious teens are lured there. They want to be the first to spy the young man who supposedly lives inside its walls, the man who's either a ghost or crazed maniac that murders those courageous enough to enter the building.

No one has ever seen him, or at least no one that's ever lived to tell the tale. But it's all just rumors, right? Well, Bella Swan is about to find out.

hmm well that chapter did take an interesting turn.. but with the little snippets of Edward's past we've had so far, it's not so surprising really.

Just glad that he's willing to let Bella be the one to bring him out of his shell, layer by layer :)

relieved to see Bella get Edward calmed down at the start there... and the shower scene was oddly intense but not exactly sexual, more like... dawning realisations/epiphany sort of feel to it??

Clever idea, Alice!

Oh and Edward's got his answers sort of, though Bella's going to be blushing fire engine red right now hehe :)

whew close call there with Charlie, and funny one with Emmett hehe It would've been nice to see Charlie or Em offer to help with the food prep though... it's the one thing that continues to irk me in a lot of stories, but oh well. It seems to work for their dynamic, at least :)

hmm Edward almost seemed coy when talking about his bath :)

I do like the progress B&E have been making, and Marcus' similar reaction to Bella at finding out a small part of Edward's history.

hehe a few movie/book lines sneaking in there ;)

I'm curious what the favour is that Bella is asking for... I have a suspicion or two, but trying not to think about them too much because I like seeing it unfold while I read :)

ahh so much progress there, but I think Bella's got some work ahead of her to calm him down now...

Oddly looking forward to Alice's "reckoning" with Bella later too hehe

And of course it's Alice to drop the L-bomb on Bella hehe looking forward to seeing where she goes with that next :)

Oh and really looking forward to Edward & Alice's eventual meeting, even if it's not exactly happening soon!

hmm it feels as if a lot of progress has been made on the foundations to get Edward and Bella out in public together... it'll still be a while, but it looks good at least! They were both cute when they were stumbling around their "I love you" moments hehe :)

 
Summary:

An unexpected discovery reveals that Edward lied when he left Bella.  Now, Bella is determined to find a way to contact him, and in the process she learns more than she ever knew about Edward Cullen.

Good to see Edward's being made aware of how forceful he was coming across; there's hope for him yet ;)

hmm well Edward's certainly doing well at making Bella feel good ;)

I did feel confused for Tanya through her internal monologue there... though frustrated because she doesn't put together that she'd gone on and on about Edward to Bella and the girls before he ever showed up...

Bella had this pre-conceived notion that Edward was "it" for Tanya, and she already looks up to her as a mother/older sister/mentor - what was she supposed to say? "Gee it's great that you told me all those things that never worked on Edward, because I just mate-printed on him kthnxbai"?

It's difficult to see it when in the midst of the emotions... also difficult when we're dealing with an unforeseen circumstance and using how "we" would react to predict how someone else is likely... or how the "majority" would at least.

Wonder how things will stand in a few days at the return to the family?



Author's Response:

Tanya's just not being rational right now. I put a lot of my own reactions into the characters and sometimes when I'm really mad about something I don't want to see reason. I just want to be mad for a while. That's kind of what's going with her right now. I know that's not really a healthy way of dealing but that's just how it goes sometimes. Things are going to get a little interesting when everyone meets back up in Forks. Thanks so much for reviewing!

Glad to see Alice and Bella settle things between them... but all I can think of at the end there was "ruh roh" (that seems to be happening a lot to me in general) :)



Author's Response:

Lol. Thanks for reviewing!

ahh such a relief to see Jasper and Bella sort things out a bit... need to get Alice on-side though :P

Oh, and Tanya's been imprinted upon? hehe :)



Author's Response:

We'll see about Tanya in the next chapter. Thanks so much for reviewing. Bella and Alice will talk soon too.

quite remarkable, and amusing to have Bella so very fast AND be so clean after her first hunt!



Author's Response:

Yes I'm trying to make a somewhat different Bella. Thanks for the review!

damn - and here I expected Phil to be pairing up with Kate :S

Should be interesting to see what Bella's noticed and what she means when she says "Please"...

lol thanks for the review!

Good to see Bella settling in so well, it was very cute to see her so excited about the eye colour and sparkling hehe

I am wondering how Tanya & Bella are going to deal with the Edward-shaped elephant (assuming it becomes one?) :)

Thanks for the review!
