Yeah, there's no offense taken on my end either.
Jo, did you say she was doing more novels other than Midnight Sun, or did I make that up?

I love vampire books, but i'm a little sick of them all being vampire romance... ugh... i haven't read a decent vampire story in ages... i liked the concept of twighlight, but i hate the way she has written it. I'm sure many others immensly enjoyed it, 'for some to love it, others must loath it', and the whole shiny vampire in the sun thing... *shakes head in disgust*, well, wondering if anyone can point me to some better written vampire books...
So here's my next question:
If vampires have no blood...
and no bodily fluids...
How did this all happen?
please tell me this does not require clarification
even before that...
I actually asked my housemate about it- the one with the fetish- and she said that opinions on this vary from book to book. Some say that once a vampire falls in love he starts "living" again, heart beating and whatnot. I think it's just a convenient excuse for the vampire to be able to get laid. Silly vampire romance novels, she reads! :lol:
Alrighty, you ponder that one and get back to me:D
Ok I am baack and in control of myself Charm so here I go.
It is standard lore in the vampire cannon that vampire usualy mate for "life" - hence Victorias reaction in Twilight when they kill James. So all I can guess is that love is an emotion and a such is not connected to the silent heart of the vampire but to the mind -I would have said soul but then we have a whole other fight on our hands do they or do they not have a soul.
I think that Bella is Edwards "soul" mate and that is why she smells so good to him and that is why it is so rare for a vampire to have that reaction to a human. Sort of a love at first smell rather than sight if you will. Jasper alreaady has Alice and Emment killed the woman that smelt so good to him and now he has Rose. Carilse has Esme so no problem there.
Vampires and the act of drinking blood have always been expressed as being a sensual act - even Edward says that sex is second to drinking human blood I persoanlly think that they are linked and that vampires get off on feeding.
It was only Edwards control that let him move past wanting to feed on Bella and thus allowing the love for her to take over. By the end of New Moon is tells her that he is over the thirst for her blood that thinking she was dead cured him. In Eclipse she falls and cuts her hand and he patches her up. I think that vampires do retain their sould I just think that it is very well buried and in some cases as the Cullens do they manage to set a little piece of itfree. That is how I think Edward is able to fall in love with Bella.
I hope that makes sense Charm hit me on the head if it doesn't. It is late Friday night here and I have had a hell of a day.
I still can not explain the baby though we still have the problem of the bodily fluid - I think she fell pregnant the first time they made love and remember it was the first time for both of them!!! Maybe that 100 years of waiting paid off for Edward - told you it was late.
AHA!! Now we have it! All the fluids he stored up before he became a vampire. I think that's our only explanation...though, even still...
I'm a student of science, my brain is just not allowing me to grasp the concept of impregnating without blood or fluids...I'm trying, but I just don't get it!
I suppose I'll have to take me roommate's advise:
"They're vampires! Just bend your mind!"
Apparently I'm not very flexible. :sick:
Welcome to the Twilight nonsense discussion, Equal! Feel free to throw in your two cents (or whatever your smallest denomination of currency might be)!
Are you a fan?
Same here. I can't see why he didn't just agree to be a godfather to her or something.
