TwiCarol Brings You Some Light In The Dark
Hey everyone! Sorry that I've been MIA for a while. RL has been a nasty bitch, but here I am once again. After sort of struggling to find a fic that could compare to the epically hilarious piece of genius that is The Red Eye by badjujube (Have you read that one yet? If not, WHY?!? Btw, the last chapter of it posted this week and there's a two-part epi to follow), I started this fic yesterday & I am LOVING it!
Once More, With Feeling by WhatsMyNomDePlume
Edward/Bella
Summary - Exes and co-workers Edward & Bella are sent to investigate the strange happenings in Forks, but they might drive each other crazy figuring out what's going on in the town. And between them. Humor/Romance.
Named after one of my favorite episodes of Buffy, it's extremely well-written, original, witty, snarky & downright amazing. I have definitely not read a fic like this one before. Sort of X-Files-y, sort of Men In Black-y, and featuring our favorite cast of characters, this is a MUST-READ. Only 10 chapters so far & it hasn't updated for a while since the author was finishing her other fic first, but what a 10 chapters they are! Here's a quick taste...
There are many types of magic in the world. There's the type of magic between a man and a woman—the sparks and stuttering hearts, the sex and the heat. There's the type of magic in a smile between strangers, linked in a moment by their one simple action. There's even magic in a lonesome moment, where a sinking sunset or a beautiful vista births intangible dreams and indescribable feeling.
And there's the type of magic that none of us are quite sure exists. The magic that goes bump in the night. The magic that gives you goose bumps and prickles on the back of your neck. The magic that keeps your nightlight lit well past childhood. You know… not magic but Magic.
It's a debated, nebulous idea, this Magic. Both in its existence and its content. You're not sure it's real and if it is—where does it start? Where does it stop? If there are ghosts in the world, are there zombies? And if there are zombies, are there witches? And if there are ghosts and zombies and witches, then there must be spells and curses and voodoo. Right?
That is to say, if ghosts even exist. If any of it exists. You have your doubts.
There's one very big reason that you—and the majority of the world's population—doubt whether this Magic exists. And that reason is called the Paranormal Investigative and Supernatural Services Division. While part of the FBI, PISSD operates completely covertly—most civilians, and a large number of agents, are completely ignorant of its existence, with good reason.
Truly a fantastic reading experience that will have you laughing out loud at it's brilliance. Trust. Since I've told you about this one, I thought I would remind you about the other amazing fic that this author was writing, which is now complete...

Edward/Bella
Summary - Sex between friends complicates everything. Bella knows this. But she has no idea how much more Edward is going to complicate things.
I've rec'd this one before so you may know about it, but in case you don't, I'm telling you again. It's a superbly written story of good friends becoming more. I highly recommend it, as I do pretty much anything this talented lady writes. Enjoy! Have a great weekend, everyone!

The Best I Ever Had by WhatsMyNomDePlume
Edward/Bella
Summary - Sex between friends complicates everything. Bella knows this. But she has no idea how much more Edward is going to complicate things.
I have been hearing great things about this little story & I finally got to reading it this week. It's 6 chapters in so far, looking to top out at 8 or 9 chapters in total. What an absolute pleasure to read! If you fancy a bit of extremely well-written, hilarious, charming & utterly engaging fluff this weekend, then this is for you. The witty banter between all of the main characters is superb & it draws you in to the point where you feel as if you know them personally. It starts out with Bella letting slip to Alice & Rose that she experienced the best sex of her life two nights before, but she REALLY doesn't want to tell them who it was with. Then one after another, the rest of the friends pick up on the conversation. Tell me this doesn't make you want to run & read this fic right away...
Oh God.
I see it happening in slow motion, the words leaving Alice's mouth like a car skidding and screeching on the brakes, trying not to hit anything.
"Bella told us she had the best sex of her life two days ago but won't tell us who it was with."
I wish a car would hit me right now.
"Actually, it's 'whom'," Jasper corrects.
"Shut up, Jasper," Emmett says.
Edward turns to me, his green eyes bright and blazing, and it reminds me of the look he had as I took my shirt off that night. My stomach twists, and the feeling is not as unpleasant as it sounds.
And then he smirks and looks more like what he actually is: the smuggest bastard on the planet. "Really? Really? The best sex of her life, huh?"
Different, funny & a wonderful way to spend some time, this a must-read & I cannot recommend it enough. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. :)
