  • Hi! I'm Ellachanted and I'm a fanfic-oholic.
Thread #4 - We are crazy talkers here!

ADULT DISCUSSION HERE, SO TRY TO KEEP IT CLEAN! UM NO, WAIT! IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED, LOOK AWAY NOW! 

This is the new thread as the other was sooo long and had lots of pages. Continuation of our wonderful discussions on Twilight Fanfiction, Books, and Life in general.  But mostly Twilight fanfics... and life stuff that will get me a NOT ALLOWED statement. 

Okay, here is a place to discuss what you are reading, ask for recommendations and complain about the writing.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, so please play nice   

Because we know drypen's watching    :googlyeyes:

I'm using mine as I write, and I am still loving it!

I love it so much that I almost feel like I should start wearing the little badge!

Almost.

I've only tried the Diva and as no-one I know had even heard of a menstrual cup, then I can't give advice on the other brands.

As for whether it is worth it, I would give a resounding YES! If you need to use a tampon or a pad, then you use a cup. I am still shocked that I have none of the side-effects of Shark Week - no cramps, no aches, no nausea. Apart from twice a day when I "freshen up", I completely forget that I am even having my period.

I might even have to start setting a reminder on my phone!

I was doing my laundry last week and was wondering why I have such a stockpile of napisan (This might be an Aussie thing - laundry product that removes all stains and discolourations from clothes? Not bleach.) and realised that I haven't needed to use it or my soaking bucket for 3 months!

The only issue I can think of with a light flow is
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

As for the stem, I can't feel it but my friend's SIL has started using it (she is a convert too!) and she had to trim it a little as

she could feel it when she was sitting down. She is only 22, no kids. Different brands have different lengths - one I saw online  had a stem that looked to be about 2 inches long and you just trimmed to suit.

With all the research I have done, and also using the cup, I have learnt more about my body in the last 3 months that I have in the last 40 years - angles, lengths and depth, internal temperature, what actually comes out. I could almost open my own clinic now!  :D

I still haven't bought mine. I'm guessing ill be looking for it next time my period comes.

I finished You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login last night. It was sweet and Edward was adorable, but I thought it lacked a little plot wise. Maybe with all the rec's I thought it would be more complex. A nice romance without any complications, it was a little bit of a let down for where my head is at right now. I liked the writing though and will definitely look up some of TheFicChick's other stories that I saw Ajamm rec yesterday. Comparatively, I think I liked Rochelle Allison's light and airy stories more (so far).

I'm more than half way through Comp Sem 101 by bornonhalloween and really enjoying it.

Just came from watching the Wolverine and it was great! Loved Hugh Jackman's beefed up bod! I am amazed at how much work goes into developing their bodies to fit a movie. But the results obviously show how it paid off.  :)

I was wondering if anyone else is having any issues with the new search filter at fanfiction.net. I had a day off from both jobs today and wanted to catch up on downloading completed stories. All of the tabs I had reset when they did the new filter. I can use the filter fine but when I try to go to a different page by page number, next or last all I get is an error. Their front page hasn't been updated since April which would be a logical place to put updates or trouble with the system. I sent them an e-mail but they haven't written back, nor do I expect them too. I tried 4 different browsers with the same result.

Is everyone having this issue also?
Yes, I can't get past page one with completed stories.  Fortunately I checked a few days before & realized I was okay.  It works if you do all stories.  So something about the "complete" filter messes stuff up.

There is a vampella fic that I read (I'm so sorry - I have been fail recently at remembering titles!). Bella is a vamp, I think she was turned by Peter but he abandoned her. She is nomadic, and is currently hiding out in a cabin. She is found by Edward, who is also a vamp, but is something more as well. I don't remember much else, but when they have sex, their coupling results in some sort of powerful thing that no one else can be near. I also think that because of the power of this thing that happens, they are able to have children that are some half breed supernatural thing.

I have a feeling that I read it during my "a" phase, so it either starts with "A..." or a word that starts with "a".

Ring any bells?

This sounds good, please let me know if you remember! thx!

Am reading this one now and enjoying it. UST abound, am on Ch21 but they haven't kissed yet though there have been hugs, gliding of lips on arms etc...quite a refreshing switch from the 5 DTE i've read so far. This is an actorward  :)

When Bella accepts a home-care provider position, she has no idea that the impossible son, Edward, will have such an impact on her. Will she find herself completely wrapped up in his complicated world, or will she learn to hate him?
OMG, I loved that fic - probably one of my actorwards.  :)

Hello newbie here!

I remember reading my first few fanfics, when Edward POVs of the twilight books where the best things ever, how naive I was back then. I think it might be back in 2010? I remember loving 'The List' as it was one of those top fics in twilighted, when MoTU was only about 30-40 chapters long. Aah the good old days!

Anyway! I just want to lament over a story that I have loved since then, it's been abandoned by the author and I doubt that it will be completed. It's Nothing left to Lose by Sarahjaynefics, it's one of those fics that I could not stop reading and until now it bugs me that I don't know what happened next.

If I was half a decent writer I could have maybe wrote what I think might have happened but I'm not half as talented as the worst fic writers are  :P. writing a fic from a fanfic so to speak.

Just thought I'd share my thoughts.
:welcome: :djparty:
Welcome Crystal!!
You'll soon realize that on here we pretty much know the ins and outs (literally sometimes ;) :D) of each other as we talk on here about practically everything and now again we might throw in a bit of fanfic - just to spice things up.  :D

We actually lucked out and all 4 of us flew using hubs airline points. Hotel is free too, again using his points. I guess that is one pro in hubs always leaving me travelling for work. We are actually in Portland, Oregon. What's on the agenda?
Mt. Hood
Mt. St. Helens
Crater Lake
Annual beer festival that starts tomorrow
Open air market on Sunday
White water rafting
Zip lines
Cannon beach
Science museum and planatarium.
Voodoo donuts
Waterfalls and maybe a hot spring

No rest on this vacation.  :)

The only sad part is I guess it's the last one with all of us together.  Oldest who graduated from college in May goes off in Sept for basic training since he joined the military. . We move the youngest to college the weekend after we get back from vacation. 

All the little birdies have left the nest and I survived !

You're going to have so much fun! Stay safe and take care of you and yours. (Also, if they still have summer snowboarding on top of the glacier on Mt Hood, give it a try!)

Ok, like Nal, something else i don't want to do, kissing/sucking/nibbling of toes/feet. Specially when he just removed her shoe, after being on a date or something. Surely she sweated a bit, must have some dirt on her feet from walking. Just grosses me out  :sign0137:

Yep, I'm with you on Nal and toes! Toes are rarely sexy, and are certainly not in my 7!!!

However, in a pool or bath, after some cleansing has occurred - then I might re-consider some toe action!

And if they looked like this, then definitely!

I see The Practicum and Rochelle Allison's fics as 2 different genres - The Practicum is a rom-com, but Rochelle Alison's fics have a bit more substance, more feeling - they stay with you for a little bit longer.

Both genres are great, and both have a big part in my library, but I prefer to read different genres at different times but, like you, I also have a preference for RA's fics. I really do love TheFicChick's writing too - especially her loooong one shots.

I've bitten the bullet and started Drotuno's Gravity series (Blood & Glory, Sin & Innocence, Smoke & Mirrors). I'll see you all in 6 months - these are not little fics!

Awesome! SexyLexiCullen just filled my inbox with 103 chapters.

Apparently she posted or re posted a story and she did in in the matter of hours. I had to turn off my phone because it kept notifying me of every single one of those 103 chapters!! >:(

I'm sure I'm not the only one that had that happen to them. :(

And I don't even have her in my author alert so I don't know wtf happened.

Well, I'm off to clean up my inbox.

Thanks for the welcomes :)

I'm not sure if this is the right thread for this but I remember reading a fic and I feel like re-reading it, I just don't remember the title  :(. I think I've read so much fics that I usually get them all jumbled up in my head.

I think I'm putting two fics together, but this is what I remember:

- Broken Bella, I believe she's an artist (painter) something tragic happened to her in the past and she loves to swim. I think Charlie called her his little starfish or something.

- I think it's a time travel fic.

- Edward is helping out in his uncle's bar.


Ugh. I feel like the title is at the tip of my brain and it's bugging me to no end that I can't remember!

Please ladies, help this poor soul.  :-\

We separated the requests from the discussion initially because they were getting lost. But since you asked for something still on ffnet, it wasn't a big deal.  Ficfangrl indexes all the uploaded stories so keeping them together helps her. 

But stick around. We always love having new people :)

The Twilight star has taken part in an unusual 13-hour shoot in honour of Cosmopolis director, David Cronenberg.

In the photo shoot, Robert Pattinson finds himself naked in bed with a pregnant woman…and himself. Yes, that's right, two Robert Pattinson's for the price of one!

The pictures, which appear in the June issue of Premiere magazine, show the 25-year-old star is pictured in bed wearing nothing but a red silk sheet.

The bed is scattered with old-school VHS tapes but what's most striking is that the Twilight heartthrob is in bed with a naked woman (Kristen Stewart fans, look away now!) and a second R-Patz!

The concept for the shoot, which apparently took 13 hours, was Robert Pattinson's own idea as he wanted to pay homage to Cosmopolis director David Cronenberg.
