Deeper Discord by ifyouweremine


Edward is a boxer with a dark past and secrets. When his best friend's little sister moves in, he finds himself in the biggest brawl of his life. A story of love and sacrifice and fighting for what matters most. AH/OOC - M for content

Edward's is a fighter, well was a fighter. He is literally bound from moving forward with his life because of his ex-wife Rose and the baggage of his parent's death. 

Meeting Rose after his parents had died in a car crash, Edward casually hooks up with her, refusing to give the commitment she wants. This forces her into Emmett's waiting arms, however a pregnancy and a subsequent diastrous marriage leaves Edward with a beautiful daughter but a controlling, bitter ex-wife.

Bella arrives at her ex-stepbrother Jasper's home in Chicago after her mother and current stepfather Phil, spend her college fund and then demand that she instead works to contribute to the house. Bella accepts Jasper's offer to stay at his home and get her life back on track. 

But who do you think is Jasper's housemate? Yup Daddyward himself, and having Bella in his home will cause nothing but trouble. Why? Well Rose demands that Edward essentially get approval for any girl he dates or has around their daughter Grace. If he upsets her then she threatens his visitations with Grace. When Rose sees Bella at Edward and Jasper's apartment she automatically gets herself up in a suspicious bunch. Bella is at first unaware of the dynamic between Edward and Rose and feels herself being a bigger inconvenience than she ever had. Add to that Edward's disdain towards her, Bella is struggling to find a happy medium in her interaction with him. Poor girl, doesn't she know that Edward's fighting a growing attraction to her.

I'd done nothing but think and dream about Bella since the night I'd scared her in the kitchen. I had no intention of touching her - ever, but I'd reacted too quickly, knowing she was about to scream. Once she was in my grasp, I was gone... lost to her.
I'm a visual person, and her response to my actions only heightened my senses. When she leaned against me, I saw myself sliding my hand from her hip, down into her panties and finger-fucking her until she came, screaming my name. Then she'd unknowingly displayed her perfectly round tits through her tank top when she leaned back against the counter, asking if I was allowed to have a girlfriend. I knew she didn't mean it the way it came out, but her words set my mind reeling about if she was my girl. 

It's still early days for this young fic (5 chapters) but I can see a lot of potential in exploring Edward's character and whether he'll make the decision to fight for the light he actually wants. Also, who doesn't want to see the oncoming shit storm from Rose once she realises how important Bella may actually become to Edward. I'm thinking that Bella may not just be the naive little sister people think she is.

Happy Birthday Robert Pattinson


It's May 13 which means it's a special boy's birthday. Happy Birthday Rob!

Did you know that when this man was born that The Chicken Song by Spitting Image was the No.1 song in the UK? This reaffirms my belief that the UK contributed greatly to the shiteous music of the 80s. ummm SAW anyone?


So it's this guy's birthday but why do we all just lose our freaking minds over him? Well for me, it is because he seems like just a nice, normal, likeable guy. He's someone who doesn't promote himself shamelessly or project a sense of entitlement. He is genuinely kind & patient to his fans and that in itself is the mark of a great movie star. As an actor, he is making really smart choices and I believe that he'll only improve as an actor with projects that will only be sources of pride for him. 

And finally, I respect him because he appears to be a loyal friend, a good son and is completely in love and protective of his girlfriend. The respect and tenderness he shows to his girlfriend Kristen, shows us all the kind of man he is.

Rob I can assure you, the dedication you receive from your fans is not because of anything Stephanie Meyer has written about a 1 dimensional character like Edward Cullen, it's because of all the above. Congratulations on all your successes and I wish you nothing but the very best for the next 12 months.
Happy Birthday!

Biggest FicH00r of the Week - That's Me!


Guess what? Not only is it my birthday today (10 May) but yup I finally did it y'all!! ::dusts off shoulders like Rob dancing in front of a mirror::

After a year of trying I have finally achieved the honoured titled of "Biggest FicH00r of the Week".  Quite funny actually considering that I wasn't even going to play this week but after a cup of coffee to jerk me into consciousness I played.

It's also quite safe to say that when I realised I had won there was a lot of screaming, flailing on the floor and yelps of 'Holy Shit!' at my house.

And not only do I get this awesome avi but I was also interviewed by @maxandmo. So if you are interested on who I want to use a butt plug with/on, check it out on the TwiFicTrivia blog: TwiFicTrivia

Someone Like Your by IReen H



Age of Edward Judges Choice Winner: Bella struggles with mental illness, Edward struggles with fidelity. Story set in 1950 with flashbacks through the 40s. Title based on "Someone Like You" by Doris Day.

You know what I love? I love when you bored, restless searching aimlessly for fics through lists, blogs and facebook pages. You see one fic, read the summary and think 'yeh nah, not for me', but then eventually you decide to read. However halfway through you physically stop and think, "why did I wait so long to read this?!". This is what Someone Like You by IReen H is to me.

This fic, hands down, is the best o/s that I have read in as long as I can remember. Come to think of it, it's one of the most well written fics I've read in a long time, period.

Set in 1950, Bella & Edward's marriage is slowly crumbling. Bella, who suffers from mental illness that has only become worse because of World War Two, lives on a knife edge trying to be the 'good wife' whilst maintaining a grip on her sensibility. She feels Edward slipping away and he is. Edward has found comfort with another but maintains his commitment to his marriage. Shit hits the fan when Bella starts to suspect there is more than one person in her marriage.

Bella walked over to him purposefully and inhaled deeply through her nose. "You smell of Shalimar."

"Bella – YOU wear Shalimar."
"Not since Christmas, when you gave me the Miss Dior Cherie."
"And you wear that?" She didn't. It was gathering dust on her vanity.
"Sometimes." She whispered.
"Sometimes. Like when you have dinner ready on time? Sometimes." His tone was annoyed, and he was already regretting it, but then he thought of Maribel. Her warm mouth, her warm welcoming body. Just get through this, he told himself.
Fire flashed in Bella's eyes, cocoa turned to steel. "You scarcely take meals here anymore. Honestly, Edward, I don't know why I bother."
"Bella love, you DON'T bother."

I can't praise this fic enough, the tension that pulls underneath that suburban veneer is palatable, with Edward  struggles at once to bring Bella in with one arm whilst pushing her away with the other. This fic absolutely deserved to win Judges Choice in the Age of Edward contest.

Word of warning though, this o/s is not for the faint hearted. It's macabre, a tragedy and angsty as all fuck but I will promise you once you finish the last sentence you will know it was all been worth it.

I'll Be Your Lover Too by EdwardsBloodType


Bella is helping her best friend Edward cope with his dark and tragic past while strugging to hide her true feelings for him. When a friend comes to visit, she will force them to recognize their deepest desires.

So thinking about what "classic" fic to recommend, I thought to look at my Favourites List. Well the third fic that I had added in 2010 was a little fic called HIGH ANXIETY. You might have read it. Well there is no denying that HA is one of the ultimate classics but to be honest I find EdwardsBloodTypes' I'LL BE YOUR LOVER TOO to be the first classic fic that I occasionally reread and my first Oldskool rec.

Best friends Edward and Bella are living together and apparently cohabiting quite happily. Bella has just come out of a bad relationship that was originally only intended to be a casual hookup. Edward seems to be coasting through his manwhore life without issue. But, you know how these things go, Bella is in love with Edward but Edward is apparently still suffering from the death of his fiancé Jane several years ago.

When an old tart comes back into town (good old Tanya) Edward begs Bella to accompany him so he doesn't have to suffer Tanya on his own. Bella agrees to the night out and what unfolds is a night of first time drugs and a threesome. Admittedly this threesome is going to blow your mind a little but not because it's just a steamy lemon but because Edward is actually also in love with Bella and believes this could be his only way to express his love for her. 

From that point there is another night of group sex (also involving a young actor Robert Pattinson) and the ramifications of what these expressions of intimacy mean for Edward & Bella. They struggle to process what the sex meant because they are unable to communicate properly to each other and this is exasperated  with a pre booked holiday to Mexico.

What brings me back though to this fic is the flawed characterisation of Edward, he's damaged & guilt ridden but not for reasons you may think. Bella also must come to terms to opening herself up to Edward without any fear. Finally combined with the insane crackling lemons this is one for the shelf.

Fan Fic Vidiot

When it comes to making rob/kristen fan vids, I think I can pretty much make anything out of a couple clips & the right song. When it comes to fan fic vids, I'm often left pulling my hair out, groaning because I can't get my head around conveying the story correctly. Basically it's because I feel such a responsibility in honouring the author's intention and their characters, plus you need a fuckload of clips to work with, which is something I don't necessarily have. 

So when I see fan fic vids that rise above the norm, I'm always blown away and in awe. It's like putting a jigsaw puzzle together from pieces that belong to a hundred different puzzles. So every now and then I'll post up the fan fic vids that own me and are perfect companions to the actual work. 


Love is the End by melg0510



First one, well it's mine. I'm not blowing my own trumpet but I thought I would just put it out there. This fic is phoebes.promise's LOVE IS THE END. A gorgeous story & one that is very dear to me, as is the author.



Under the Apple Tree by digitalxtc73



Have you ever watched a fan vid and it's made you cry? Nope, never happened to me until I saw this fan fic video by digitalxtc73 for UNDER THE APPLE TREE. This video is a slow build, in a photo slide format but it is soooo freaking beautiful that by the end I'm tearing up. Digitalxtc73 hints at the fragility of Bella and vulnerability of Edward in a beautifully tender way. Doesn't hurt either that the fic is just so fuckawesome that you can't help but be moved.

Last Call by Robsmyyummycabanaboy


The past she's struggling to remember is the time he'd rather forget... Can they move beyond the scars and forge a new beginning together or have they missed their Last Call? AH, Rated M for language & eventual emons.

What can I say about this fic? Every time Last Call updates my heart skips and I pretty much have to clear the decks so I can read this awesome fic.

Edward and Bella know each other. Well Edward knows this but Bella well she doesn't since she suffers amnesia from a tragic accident she was involved in which resulted in the death of all her family. Edward met Bella when he began working as her family's cabana boy (I LOVE this) as a teenager in Ocean City. What followed was a short intense romance that ended due to Bella's mother's disapproval. Bella took this very hard and became a grade A bitch making Edward's working life a complete misery. 

Flash forward years later Edward is the successful owner of Last Call in Surf City, NJ. The business is doing extremely well and he's engaged to be married but then Bella walks into the bar. He's rude and dismissive to her without realising that Bella has no recollection of who she previously was and thus the story gets under way.

The UST is off the radar as Edward tries hard to resolve his feelings for Bella. Bella (who begins dating Edward's brother) is drawn to Edward and slowly realises that he had played a big part in her life and may hold the key to finding out who she was. Problem is, she probably wouldn't like to know who that bratty, mean teenager was.

At this point in the fic, Edward has explained to Bella their history but will they ever take the chance to be together. Is Edward just in love in the memory of his first teenage love? Can Bella handle the hard truth of what her life was before the accident? We are over currently over the mountain, so for all you newbies you can start reading now knowing the end is close. 

"Isabella, your parents won't hear us 'cause they're in Atlantic City for the night. And as much as that was a really lovely invitation, ass-wriggle and all, I'm gonna have to pass. You're drunk as hell, and I guarantee once you sober up and daylight hits, it'll be Groundhog Day all over again; and you're gonna hate me again. Just like you always do. Every. Single. Day."
My words seem to startle her. She gets quiet and collapses on her belly, tucking her arms under her face and turning her head to the side to face me.
I sit down on the edge of her bed after pulling the comforter up to her shoulder blades and gingerly removing the rubber band from her pony-tailed hair.
"I could never hate you, Edward," she whispers, sounding pained. "I miss you. Every. Single. Day."
I see a tear fall over the edge of her gorgeous brown eye as she continues, "…more than you'll ever know."
