As the Volturi talk, Bella keeps her shield up. Jane and Alec attempt to incapacitate the Cullens and their allies, to keep them from running away, but it’s to no avail against Bella’s shield. When the Volturi break off, Aro says that, regardless of the decision, it doesn’t need to come to violence and it would be a shame for anyone to die. This prompts exclamations of disbelief from the Cullens’ side. I’d just like to remind you all one more time that the only evidence of the Volturi wanting

Bella finally decides to look into J. Jenks. She drives Jacob and Nessie over to Charlie’s, telling Edward that she wants to give Charlie a chance to visit Nessie so she can use the away time to head to Seattle. Why she can’t just say, “I need to go to Seattle. Alice left a message that she only wanted me to see. I want to tell you but I don’t think I should. Sorry.”, I don’t know. Jacob’s still not happy with the vampires, particularly the Romanians. Nessie, however, is fascinated with them,

Showing fantastic proactivity, the Cullens wait for Alice to return. For hours. They don’t even send someone out to check up on her. What do Bella and Edward do during this? Take a wild guess.

We’d stared at each other all night, staring at what neither of us could live through losing: the other.

Do you ever see the content made by other Bronies and wonder: "How did they do that?"

And then right after asking that, do you ask yourself: "How can I do that?"

Then, this panel is for you!

In this lecture, I'll be going over the initial steps to take when trying out new skills such as writing, drawing, vectoring, audio recording, and video production.

Check it out! It's even subtitled!

Thanks to my friends deciding to spam me a few months ago, I have a decent title for this blog! You guys are the best. Worst. Burst?

Anyhoo, let's talk about something that hasn't been in a good long while. That would be none other than my flagship story herself, Learning Curve.

It's amazing how fast time flies.

Bella, Alice, and Jasper head the airport to meet with the rest of the Cullens. Bella keeps going on about how difficult it’ll be to lose them, and I’m still wondering why she doesn’t tell them what’s up (especially since Alice has just had a vision that Bella doesn’t know the contents of but she guesses is showing her meeting James). However, she has a spot of luck: she knows the airport terminal better than any of the Cullens. Before Edward’s plane arrives, she goes to a bathroom with two

NaNoWriMo is over. I didn't meet the written goal, but it's not a failure.

Last night, I finally decided it was time to do something I should have done long ago. I have officially changed Learning Curve's status to On Hiatus.

We're sitting at two and a half years since the last update rolled out for that one. It's amazing how time flies. It honestly doesn't feel like it's been that long, but the numbers don't lie.

This must set some kind of record. These are the very first sentences in the chapter:

“I miss you already.”

“I don’t need to leave. I can stay…”

Four words in, and CM + 1. Wow. Even by this series’ standards, wow.

It’s the night before the wedding, and our resident codependent couple is in the middle of a kissing session. Quite a clingy one, too:

Bella wakes up and is, for some reason, annoyed with herself for having that dream about the immortal child, as if she could control what she dreams. After breakfast, she and Charlie get ready, and Alice arrives to help them put the finishing touches on their clothes and make them look presentable. There’s an interesting bit where Alice mentions that, to keep the tradition of the groom not seeing the bride’s dress before the wedding, she’s been very careful to not think about the dress when

Most of this chapter is a sort of montage/summary of the first three months of Bella’s vampirization. It’s perfect, of course. She claims to take mythology a lot more seriously, which could be interesting, but it’s only so she can make a too-long metaphor about the Fates’ loom and the color of the threads of herself, her family, and her friends. Nessie keeps growing quickly and she’s adorable without having any character. Alice and Rosalie make a scrapbook of her growth to create the

The reception begins as Bella looks over all the people who’ve come. A lot of it is listing off names of the obligatory guests — friends and family who don’t play much of a role in the rest of the series. In spite of being a werewolf, Seth is genuinely enthusiastic that Bella and Edward got married. They go through the cake-cutting, the pictures, the dancing, everything. (I’m kind of curious who’s the poor schmuck who got stuck serving the beer and wine. When my brother got married, I, being an

Hmm. “Bloodlust” implies a throwdown. Could we actually end this series with a big vampire fight? Here’s hoping!

Bella and Edward pork all night, and she’s still not satisfied. It takes Edward saying Nessie’s name to snap her out of it. They get changed; we get another mention of how the closet is filled with lotsa clothes and can’t ANYTHING come hard to this couple?! In the middle of changing, we get yet another reminder of how so frigging hot like whoa Edward is that somehow manages to double as a reminder that their sex is TOATELLY GRAET EWE GAIS:

Bella’s stressing out about everything: the Volturi, Alice’s desertion, the fact that she’ll have to learn how to fight, J. Jenks, the vampires who’ll be coming over, everything. She tries to talk to Edward about it, but before she can get the words out, he’s kissing her. And then she just forgets about asking questions for the night.

Snide phrase that connects back to the chapter title in some way.

While Jacob and Seth are on patrol, Jacob wonders why the Cullens just don’t take Bella somewhere else, away from Sam. Seth says he’s already asked that; the Cullens have too many medical supplies to transport easily, and collecting them takes a lot of time. This debate takes two whole pages. I hate this book.

Lessons we learned this week:
-Don't go to a Porsche dealership with a phony check in Indiana, that only seems to work in Florida
-Don't make a fake injury claim and sue. But if you do, commit to the bit.
-Apparently pilots will draw dicks in the sky with their flight path and some of them are really good at it
