I kind of ship Parker/Duke on the SYFY show Haven, but I also like Parker/Nathan. Parker/Duke is kind of like Jacob/Bella in that Duke is the underdog. The difference is that Parker is so fucking awesome and interesting on her own despite all the shit that is thrown at her every day that she has much better taste in the guy she picked: Nathan. He's not an abusive fuckwad like Edward. He was willing to die to save the town. To save her. Anyway, Duke has/had a gf last season and I liked her, so I'm not worried that the writers will fuck everything up. Their chemistry is through the roof and their friendship is the best.
I still think that Breaking Dawn is the worst book ever.
An FBI agent, Audrey Parker, is assigned to finding a fugitive/guy who skipped out on parole in his hometown. When she gets there, he is dead, so she investigates his death with Nathan, a town police detective. During the investigation she realizes something is strange about the town. A woman can affect the weather through her emotions. She is Troubled, as is Nathan; he cannot feel anything, pain or pleasure. Then two older brothers who run the town paper figure out why they recognize her and show her a picture of a woman who looks exactly like her, only it's from the 1970s and she wasn't yet born. She decides to stay.
For realsies, none of my RL friends understand why I love and hate this series so much. Most of them are E/B, and when I try to explain to them why E/B is a perfect example of emotional abuse and co-dependency, they don't get it. Part of the reason why I bowed out was not only due to BD, but also in the realization that J/B's relationship is just as abusive on Bella's part IF you include anything outside of NM. What she does to Jake and how she treats him... Bella's a cunt. *shakes fist* A. CUNT.
I just fell back into the J/B fic, and I LOVE the fics that fix it. That fix Bella, and make J/B work in it's angtsy, loving, happy, goodness.
Q1) Pretty much all of your fics bluesuzanne, anything by ophelietta, and anythingbutgrey's fics. Anything non-cannon. Haha. I can't remember the name of the fic, there is one where *SPOILERS* Bella is a witch and Jacob ends up dead. That broke my heart
( ... )
Q3) I LOATHED BD. I still do. I'm just inactive in my loathing. Though, if someone brings up Twilight in conversation, I usually have to stop myself from developing a full blown rant. Same thing happens when people talk about 50 Shades of Grey. IT WIGS ME OUT, the fact that it was originally E/B AU smut and the author just changed the names. Makes me wanna puke.
That's basically it: I've become inactive in my feelings. I still have the full Jacob/Bella mindset, I just don't have the motivation to show it.
I haven't been involved in this fandom in a long time, yet my love for Jake/Bella hasn't really dissapeared.
Q1: I've always loved their scenes in New Moon before Jake becomes a werewolf. Where they're just two friends and Bella is healing and it's wonderful.
Q2: Well nearly all my OTP's are doomed but I can't actually think one that reminds me of Jake/Bella, I'm sure it exists, but I can't think of it right now
Q3: They've pretty much stayed the same, I still hate, still think it's awful and I still haven't managed to make myself read it completely. I have developped some amnesia about it, I simply pretend it does not exist and it never happened. But then I tend to pretend Eclipse never happened either so.
1. Sometimes I remember that time Bella said she would run away with Jake and I just. Ugh. 2. Well Dan/Blair springs to mind. Which.... wow. Did those writers actually outdo Smeyer there? 3. I hate Breaking Dawn as much as ever, but also I giggle every time I see Edward's face in the movies because wow they went nuts on the makeup and the creeper eyes in that one. 4. I WISH I COULD DRAW 5. We should do an epic reread reread. I'm serious.
DON'T YOU DO THIS BLUE, DON'T YOU ALSO BRING DAN/BLAIR INTO THIS. I CANNOT HANDLE THIS, I CANNOT. ABORT, ABORT. IT IS LIKE MY PAIN COMPOUNDED.
I was actually more mature about BD then I was about the final season of Gossip Girl, I refuse to see, speak or even acknowledge there was a season 7. I constantly contemplate starting a punk band called The Dan & Blairs.
WHY HAVE YOU OPENED THIS WOUND?! WILL YOU NOT LET IT HEAL?! Hahahahhaa

Tumblr for the WIN! It's so true. NM all the way.

Also, does anyone have a working link to Evaporate by Sarakismet? Or is that fic lost for good?

Man, anythingbutgrey's fics were basically the reason I got into the fandom. THEY WERE BASICALLY THE REASON I STARTED WRITING FIC.
