Not so much with the Edward Cullen: he's not annoyingly moody or stalkery!

It's funny, but whenever I read a 'verse (any 'verse) where Rodney is a woman, I always think of it as a modern-day take of The Taming of the Shrew; modern-day because of the lack of creepy Shakespearian misogyny and societal approval of male domination. If you take the creepy away, what you have left is the idea that Petruchio is a somewhat laid-back, thinks-outside-of-the-box kinda guy who totally *gets* Kate. He loves her fire and her smarts and her complicated personality, loves the way she makes everyone cry or shrink away, and is attracted to her from word one... or scream-of-outrage one. He just totally *gets* her, he just has to get over her prickly defensive walls to convince her of same.

Hope you keep writing in this fabulous 'verse!

I really love, love, love these two. They're perfect together.
