The Twilight Experiment--Eclipse, Chapters 5-I don't even remember. 10 or Something

This dreary day seems like a good time to update. Rather quickly.

Nothing much to report. Some strange vampire was in Bella's room, but I'm not concerned about it (yet, I suppose) because they did nothing more than display a slightly stalkerish tendency in stealing her pillow and a shirt. And since Edward is a stalker, I'd be silly to be afraid of Mr. New Vampire for being kind of a stalker, too. It just wouldn't be logical.

So basically we have yet another faceless threat (?) that's impossible to be frightened of.

Also Jacob and Edward aren't trying to kill each other anymore; I suppose there's something about mutually freaking out over an incident that they know nothing about and may or may not be threatening to the girl they love that just helps boys bond. Which is to say, they're both now on "Keep Bella in at least one of our sites at all times" mode. Honestly. It's like she can't pee without being in peril.

Also, werewolves are officially just weird. There's this whole thing about how they "imprint" on people, which is basically some mysterious connection that it's possible for them to instantly form with a member of the opposite sex upon seeing them. After which time they're hopelessly devoted to the person. But here's the thing: if, in your lifetime (assuming you're a werewolf), you do catch sight of the person you're supposed to imprint on, you will do so immediately--no matter how old the person is. One of Jacob's friends just imprinted on a two-year-old.

Oh, Smeyer.

  1. Your last paragraph is just setting up some wonderful, wonderful future reflections when/if you get to Breaking Dawn.

  2. You should hear my dad rant about the werewolves in that...it's amazing.

    I can tell this has gotten painful for you, and I just want to say that I appreciate you slogging through these muchly.

  3. I have to echo Alana's comment. Thanks for taking this literary bullet for us because curiosity might have driven some of us to read these books ourselves...
