Canon: Twilight is a classic tale of vampire love in the shadows - mostly because if the leading man steps into the sunlight, he looks like a disco ball. Edward Cullen and Bella Swan's interspecies affair survives high school drama, feuding werewolves, and vampire civil war in large part due to the support and skills of Edward's close-knit vampire family. The Cullens have isolated themselves from most of their kind, living as "vegetarians" and dining only on wild animals instead of humans.
Alice is the only one of the Cullen "children" to join up on her own: one day in the mid 20th century she knocked at their front door and politely explained that she (and her lover Jasper, only recently persuaded that eating people was bad) would be a part of the family from then on. You see, Alice is a prescient who usually lives with one fashionably-shod foot in the future. Optimistic, pixie-like, confident and mischievous, Alice likes to tease and can be very playful. Although in general she's friendly and easy-going, she also tends to ignore other people's opinions and do things her own way - usually for the best, but sometimes just because she thinks her idea is more fun. Underneath this care-free attitude, however, is a fierce dedication to and love for her adopted family. She will do anything for them. And if she gets a yellow Porsche or the chance to give someone a make-over out of the deal, so much the better.

So this is Camp Fuck You Die! While I do question the taste of that name, it does have a certain quality about it... It's so... Atmospheric! And the swamp really does complete the scene, as it's thoroughly unpleasant. I must admit that I would have appreciated just a little bit more warning, though! I barely had time to pack properly, and that would have been tragic in several senses of the word. As it is, I've got just enough to pass muster - and I can't imagine how awful it must be to arrive here with no warning at all! If it wasn't for certain unnatural abilities and a practical pair of shoes I might be in real trouble with this muck. And please, don't even mention the fine dining I ran into back there - purple, really? I know I'll get used to it, but it won't be right away.
Relatively well prepared or not, there are more than a few little blank spots niggling at the back of my mind, and I really don't like being taken by surprise. It's very inconvenient! Of course, my overall impression of this so-called camp is, to begin with, one of extreme inconvenience from start to end. The lack of an exit strategy certainly comes to mind. Still, there is a lot of potential here. Almost too much - I'm going to get a headache if everyone keeps making such split-second decisions! As for the zombies, well. I can see they won't be too much trouble, but I do have a few concerns. Seeing the future, while extremely useful, can only tell me so much. It's best to meet with them now and have a real look at what I'm dealing with. ...Right now, in fact.
Hmm. There're not very responsive, are they. If I do keep trying, it will all just come back to brains! Though the 'why' is a little bit unclear - something that I'm sure will become quite irritating in the days to come. And the smell really is terrible. Even I don't understand what Miss Sayre sees in them, other than as a sort of macabre decor. But since a certain lady will insist on changing her mind so very often, perhaps in time something will present itself.
And meanwhile, being dead is no excuse for being shabby, and I ought to know! I suppose I could give out a little advice, since I'm here already. I'll start with the gentleman on the right - while that might have been a very nice Armani suit at some point in the distant past, it really is time to lay it to rest, so to speak. There's vintage and then there's vintage.
