This series looks promising. Old and recent characters being corrupted by a glitch is something I never would've expected in Adult Swim.
This is like the hybrid of edutainment and creepypasta and it's totally right up my alley.

Well, that didn't go over so well.
I wonder what went wrong? Maybe I'm just the victim of a flood of people who hate vore.
Ah well, analyze what I did wrong and maybe do better next time, yeah?
The first sentence of the chapter is this:
We made our flight with seconds to spare, and then the true torture began.
Hearing something scratching at her window, Bella freaks out, thinking it’s Victoria. No, it’s actually Jacob, climbing a tree to try to get into her room. Bella opens her window to let Jacob in, which brings up lots of bad emotions.
So, what’s the reason for the cliffhanger last chapter? What’s beyond that door that’s so surprising?
A hallway. Lame.
Three more pages of walking through halls, and then the group emerges into a castle turret, populated by both humans and vampires. They’re greeted by Aro, who…
Really?! (looks at table of contents) …Nope. Dammit.
Anyway, during Bella’s day at school, Edward’s distant, and the rest of the Cullens and Hales who still go to school aren’t there. Naturally, this is terrible for Bella, and her job after school at a sporting goods store drags on and on and on. She thinks it’s nothing, even though your boyfriend’s family almost eating you on instinct shouldn’t be nothing.
Bella drives out to the Cullens’ house, trying to get a glimpse of it. Actually, she’s wanting to hear Edward’s voice again, hoping deja vu will trigger it, but she doesn’t want to admit it. Think that’s unhealthy? So does Bella:
I didn’t want to admit the strongest motivation. Because it was mentally unsound.
She admits it’s mentally unsound and does it anyway. CM + 1
If any chapter in the series so far has come close to breaking me, it’s this one. If I wasn’t reading the series to find out what it did wrong, if I was only reading it out of a trainwreck mentality, I would’ve quit here.
In light of today’s events, I feel the need to speak up in regards to friendships.
Friends are a tremendous blessing to have…but there will always be ups and downs. There will always be times when friends have arguments, disagreements, and even fights. But there will also be times we kiss, make up, forgive, and forget. It’s all part of the friendship process. Nevertheless, there are limits in this relationship.
Young Applejack: Aunt Orange! Uncle Orange! Thank y'all so much for lettin' me stay!
Aunt Orange: "Y'all". [laughs] Isn't she just the living end?
Uncle Orange: [chuckle] How quaint.
Aunt Orange: Don't worry. We'll have you acting like a true Manehattanite in no time.
Come one, come all! Watch in awe as I corrupt Mosely's only canon line into something absolutely terrible!
I've had to re-learn some lessons with my latest story. Gimme a sec and I'll explain.
Even though her first encounter with him was almost completely negative (except for the fact that he’s so frigging hot like whoa), Bella’s next day at school is terrible because Edward isn’t there. She keeps expecting him to show up, as if he’s skipping school to wind her up. She suspects his absence is her fault, which I can kinda see, but is also ridiculous and egotistical (something she herself points out, but that doesn’t make it not ridiculous and egotistical).
It’d rained in the previous chapter, but Bella wakes up to find the weather cold enough freeze the rain solid, coating everything in a layer of ice and turning the roads into an ice rink. Naturally, school’s cancelled; there’s no way the school’s going to let students drive out in those conditions.
No, wait. School’s not cancelled. Students have to drive out in those conditions.
Holy crap was this chapter uneventful.
Bella’s dream of Edward can be summed up like this: “Edward’s so frigging hot like whoa, but I can’t get to him.” (By the way, I’m not exaggerating with working that phrase into every post thus far. Nearly every mention of Edward talks about how beautiful he is.)
After a little more waiting, Alice gets another convenient vision of James in another room. When she sketches out the room, Bella recognizes it as her mother’s family room; James is going after Renee to get to Bella. Fortunately, the rest of the Cullens will be arriving in Phoenix soon. (Side note: there’s two or three more times when Bella says something stupid about Edward’s absence, like, “Just a few more hours to keep breathing till he was here.”, but I’m giving up commenting on them.
I did. These books are predictable.
