What In The World?

Photobucket


So. We have a new segment this week! What In The World focuses on our favourite quotes from our favourite stories.
So, for our first edition of this segment I decided to choose two stories which, as you know, we freaking love here.

The first one up is The Quiet Room by givemesomevamp

Do you know how damn hard it is to only pick two quotes from this story? It’s damn near impossible, I tell ya! And because it’s so difficult to choose only two quotes, so I’m going to focus on her most recent chapters. givemesomevamp is… hilarious. Actually, that doesn’t quite cover it. But she can also make your heart ache for the characters she’s writing, so I’ve decided that I’m going to focus on a quote that shows her brilliant wit, and one that focuses on her ability to write heart wrenching scenes.


"You don't understand! I'm damaged! There is no 'me' only this! Only him." She screeched out with her eyes squeezed shut. "On my body and etched in my skin, it's all him!" She clawed at her chest through her clothes as she cried out the words in a bitter wail that tore at my soul, and I stood helpless to do anything but watch the scene unfold before me through the venom poolin' in my eyes.

This… damn. It makes my heart ache for Bella. And for Jasper, having to watch her break down, and the pain that emanates from Bella is palpable in givemesomevamp’s writing. She just..she’s amazing.


“I would deal with it with dignity,”.
“You mean clinging to the nearest leg and begging them not to leave?”
“Of course,”

I love the arguments Bella has with her own psyche, and this is just a perfect example of it. givemesomevamp infuses Bella with both razor-sharp with and heart-warming vulnerability at the same time, yet still keeping her hilarious, even when dealing with her demons.



Now. My second choice for this week is Nowhere Left To Run by Spirare

Now. I love this fic. And not just because she references my favourite movie of all time, Heathers, but because Spirare is just…she’s funny as fuck. Really. Gigglesnorts galore. And not just funny, she can also write a lemontastic scene that will have you running off to take a cold shower. It's another one where picking only two quotes, but I've made an attempt, at least.


He lays down the flop. 2 of diamonds. 7 of diamonds. King of diamonds.

I giggle and he looks at me questioning.

"Diamonds sparkle in the sun just like you." I coo at him. He wants to laugh, I can tell but he has his Mr. Cool persona on and he's probably spent decades perfecting that shit.

I…yeah. I laughed my fucking ass of. Spirare’s Bella is hilarious, witty and spunky, mouthing off to Peter before she even knows who he is.


"Last year when Jane came to visit, we decided to write a how-to guide. You know, how to fuck with the Volturi. The working title is Things To Do in Volterra When You're Dead. I'll dig it out and show it to you later."

"Who the fuck are you and what have you done with Bella Swan?" Jasper frowns but I can see I entertain him.

"Bella Swan died, Jazz. Now, I'm just me and you find me enchanting."

Again, just…yeah. There are no words. Spirare is awesome. That’s really all I can say, right? Her Bella is not only hilarious, witty and spunky as I previously mentioned, but she’s ballsy, and self confident.

So there you have it. My quotes for the week! Hope you enjoyed reading my insane fangirling.
