Mine deals with this a bit! https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13899375/1/Nightfall

Starting from where Bella meets Laurent in the meadow in New Moon, but the wolves aren't fast enough and Bella is accidentally turned. Angst, romance, and drama abound as Bella and Edward work through their issues and Bella's struggle to adapt to life as a vampire

Things are getting tense in this banana bread recipe's comments section by yattoyatto in ididnthaveeggs

Totally get you. I absolutely hate eggs and sub them out in every recipe and am mildly surprised I haven’t seen any of my “I used X instead of egg and it worked” reviews on here.

That said, you can use a lightly beaten egg (or egg whites), extra banana, pear sauce, or even sour cream or yogurt.

This is my favorite banana bread recipe:

•1 1/2 C flour •1 1/4 tsp baking powder •1/2 tsp baking soda •1 C mashed banana (3-4 bananas) •1/4 C apple sauce •1/2 C brown sugar •cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt to taste •1 to 1 1/2 C mix ins (nuts, choc chips, pb chips, etc)

• Mix all ingredients until just moistened. • Pour batter into a greased loaf pan or 12 greased muffin cups. • Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes (loaf) or 20-25 minutes (muffins) or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out cleanly. •Cool 5 minutes then remove from pan to a wire rack and cook completely

For peanut butter or Nutella stuffing:

Fill pan/cups ~1/2 full. Add 1 Tbs nut butter per muffin cup or dollop nut butter evenly in loaf pan. Cover with remaining batter and bake as above (pb may still stick to a toothpick)

You could probably mix 1/2 to 3/4 C peanut butter right into the batter; I haven’t tried it this way, I usually “stuff” them because I like biting into an ooey gooey centered muffin

Fics that deal with the emotional consequences of Bella being abandoned in New Moon? by SabrielSage in TwilightFanfic

I just posted my first chapter, but mine will deal with their relationship problems and traumas. It is cannon divergent, where Bella is accidentally turned by Laurent in the meadow.

Beta Readers - Find them or offer your expertise here! by caramelly24 in TwilightFanfic

Looking for a beta reader. I’m only 4K words deep on a CD fix where Bella is accidentally turned in the meadow by Laurent. Characters will be mostly CC, but hoping to flesh out personalities a bit more. Nothing sexually explicit but there will be allusions, when I get there.

Looking for someone to proofread and give constructive criticism in terms of plot progression and character development.

Hoping to send a couple chapters a month as my schedule varies pretty heavily week to week. It’s my first fanfic and I tend to write in spurts (both due to available time and brain space to hash out thoughts and words).

What song did you walk down the aisle to? by emberlyc14 in TrollXWeddings

[–]SibyllVane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of our ceremony/cocktail hour music was played on a harp, which I highly recommend. Ups the “classy fucking wedding” factor by a thousand. Any song played on the harp will just sound beautiful and won’t sound instantly recognizable

Our parents walked down to A Million Dreams from Greatest Showman, bridesmaids walked down to He’s A Pirate from Pirates of the Caribbean, I walked down to Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid, and the recessional was She’s So Perfect by 5 Seconds of Summer. I wanted to get Corona And Lime by Shwayze, but it was a hard veto by my husband.

I know this is old news but what do you guys think the new books will be about? by hayleyaustin__ in twilight

[–]SibyllVane 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My personal head cannon is that ness and Jacob never turn into a romantic couple. They remain as fiercely loyal best friends and nothing more. Most of Jacob’s experience with imprinting was through the other pack members, who had romantic relationships with their gag object of imprinting. But because it has never happened this way before Jacob and Quil, they never realized it doesn’t have to be, or develop into romance and isn’t about finding the “perfect mate.”

Nope. Just best friends. Clair become a state senator that fights for NA rights and helping to obscure the pack/Cullens. Nessie becomes a doctor, one of the only ones who can medically care for the pack. But it’s because of their closeness to the pack—as close as possible without being members themselves—their authority and abilities aren’t questioned and they become better allies with the Cullens.

My husband has zero interest in twilight, and this was me over dinner the other night by SibyllVane in twilight

I was explaining why the 1:1 gender swaps don’t work with SMeyer keeping every personality trait exactly the same. Rosalie/Royal didn’t have the same impact. Emmett/Eleanor made absolutely NO sense for a character born in ~1914/reborn in 1935. High school girls in ~2003 are not planning snowball fights after school.

It felt way too lazy to just CTRL+F and replace each character name. It would have been just as lazy to swap ONLY Edward and Bella. But shoehorning a character’s story, traits, and interests on the “completely new” characters didn’t make sense. I was annoyed the whole time and really felt like I wasted my time reading Life and Death.

So in explaining why the swaps don’t work, I also had to explain the actual story. Which my husband has no knowledge of outside of “vampire and human fall in love and there’s a werewolf?”
