Ahem. ;)

zoe_chan finally read Twilight and we gushed.

aradiachiba, you are not allowed to read this post until you finish BOTH books, and then you need to gush at me, too. ;)

Also, this post is mainly so I can hear

scribophile go supersonic over the Twilight squeeage. ;)

Lady_Sarai: so what're you up to?
zoe_chan: not much
zoe_chan: finished Twilight last night and started New Moon
Lady_Sarai: WEEEEEE!!!!!
Lady_Sarai: ::twirls you::
Lady_Sarai: fangirl at me, please. ;-)
zoe_chan: okay.
zoe_chan: ::squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees::
Lady_Sarai: I KNOW!
zoe_chan: OMG, I love this book
Lady_Sarai: IT HAS MY KINK!!!!!!!!!!!!
zoe_chan: It DOES!!!
Lady_Sarai: IT SO DOES!
Lady_Sarai: I've been dying to get that out.
zoe_chan: It is your kink all up and down.
Lady_Sarai: it's even got the less pretty side of my kink that REALLY does it for me and I try OMG SO HARD not to think of the psychological ramifications of.
zoe_chan: and the less pretty side of your kink?
Lady_Sarai: and... the less pretty side of my kink. um. ::turns ten shades of red:: okay, so, the horrid fevers and deathly illness really does it for me, but sometimes? I think I watched WAY TOO MANY superhero shows as a child and the whole kidnap/beating thing got a LITTLE too beaten into my brain. Did you know Two-Face beat Robin nearly to death in his first year as Robin? Yeah, then Batman fired him but not for long. I forget precisely what happened in TMNT to Raphael but you remember, I'm sure. But I blame these things.
Lady_Sarai: ::shifty eyes and hides::
Lady_Sarai: So, yeah, it was my kink, squared.
zoe_chan: I do remember.
Lady_Sarai: what happened?
zoe_chan: he went onto the roof for some alone-time because he and Leonardo argued.
zoe_chan: While he was up there, he was ambushed by members of the Foot.
zoe_chan: they beat the SHIT out of him, while everyone else was taking a tour of April's junk store.
zoe_chan: he eventually got thrown through a glass window, and dropped through a floor.
Lady_Sarai: I BLAME THE NINJA TURTLE MOVIE OMG SO MUCH!!!!!!!! AND HOW PATHETIC IS IT THAT I CAN TRACE MY KINK TO TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES?!?! ::has no idea what to do with this::
zoe_chan: ::shifty eyes:: I so share that aspect of your kink (and this is so terrible)
Lady_Sarai: THANK YOU
Lady_Sarai: I feel far less pathetic now. ::hangs head::
Lady_Sarai: it's so disturbing.
zoe_chan: yeah, I'm there with you
zoe_chan: it is
Lady_Sarai: but omg.
zoe_chan: Um, yes.
Lady_Sarai: and Twilight HAD IT.
zoe_chan: In SPADES
Lady_Sarai: ::moving back to the happy place::
Lady_Sarai: And I LOVE Alice.
zoe_chan: And I have this HORRIBLE sinking feeling about New Moon, and I *know* why Edward is acting so weird to Bella, and I HATE it, and I want to KILL HIM, because he's going to leave her "for her own good," and I HATE him.
Lady_Sarai: ...this is why I SKIMMED.
Lady_Sarai: I SKIMMED that book, Theanna!
Lady_Sarai: ::still headdesks over it::
Lady_Sarai: because it gave me GREAT ANXIETY!
zoe_chan: I have ANXIETY
Lady_Sarai: probably about where you are.
zoe_chan: yes, I so have it, and I'm so mad, that I flipped through it a little to see what happens
zoe_chan: ::hates self a little::
zoe_chan: It eats your brain
Lady_Sarai: it DOES.
Lady_Sarai: I may have hyperventilated through that section.
zoe_chan: I think my eyes were as big as saucers just trying to read it all at once and *see* it at the same time.
Lady_Sarai: YES!
zoe_chan: ::loves Bella::
Lady_Sarai: SO MUCH.
Lady_Sarai: she is kick-ass.
Lady_Sarai: and, um, EDWARD.
zoe_chan: um, yes.
Lady_Sarai: everybody loves "If I could dream at all, it would be about you" but my favorite line HAS TO BE "you are *exactly* my brand of heroin."
zoe_chan: yes, I love the heroin line

Then her husband came home and we both went our separate ways for the evening, but later, she came back to me, and we continued the squeeage.

zoe_chan: Sara...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Auto response from LadySarai: I just tried to say "whiskey tango foxtrot" and it came out "whisko tangey foxtrot." Somehow I think I earned the laughing and the mocking.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
zoe_chan: ::whines::
zoe_chan: I'm *upset*
Lady_Sarai: is this RL or New Moon?
zoe_chan: New Moon
Lady_Sarai: I know.
Lady_Sarai: ::pats::
Lady_Sarai: what part? (I can guess. :-P)
zoe_chan: I'm actually deeply unhappy.
Lady_Sarai: I KNOW.
Lady_Sarai: HENCE MY SKIMMAGE! oops, capslock.
Lady_Sarai: ... ::physically restrains herself from spoiling you::
zoe_chan: It's an exercise in misery for me.
Lady_Sarai: I know. It hurts so bad.
Lady_Sarai: ::cuddles:
zoe_chan: Bella and Jacob are wokring on the motorcycles
zoe_chan: but I'm so *deeply* unhappy.
zoe_chan: I *cried* when I realised that Edward had taken her pictures and her CD
Lady_Sarai: YES! OMG Edward, you stupid stupid stupid self-sacrificing Drama King.
zoe_chan: YES.
Lady_Sarai: ... but I still love him.
zoe_chan: I loved when Bella was talking about their "deal" how it was supposed to be like he never was, but she's dead inside from missing him, and how could that ever be like he never was?
Lady_Sarai: except for how you're so heartbroken you're almost catatonic.
Lady_Sarai: yeah.
Lady_Sarai: And I was MAD at Bella!
Lady_Sarai: Because OMG BELLA HE WAS LYING IT'S SO OBVIOUS! :-P
zoe_chan: And yes, I could have killed her, because it is *so* obvious.
Lady_Sarai: those blank pages with just months on them?
Lady_Sarai: BROKE ME IN PIECES.
zoe_chan: O
zoe_chan: M
zoe_chan: G
zoe_chan: yes.
Lady_Sarai: SERIOUSLY!
zoe_chan: I *died*
zoe_chan: My heart is broken
zoe_chan: *seriously*
Lady_Sarai: yes.
zoe_chan: so... the Edward thing... it's walking all over one of my major kinks...
Lady_Sarai: ::hugs and pats and snuggles and otherwise comforts::
zoe_chan: ::shifty eyes::
Lady_Sarai: YES IT DOES THESE BOOKS HAVE BOTH OF OUR BULLETPROOF KINKS!!!!!
Lady_Sarai: IS OMG STUCK IN CAPSLOCK!
Lady_Sarai: OMGWTFBBQSQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
zoe_chan: ::flails::
Lady_Sarai: ::flails with you::
zoe_chan: ::flails wordlessly::
Lady_Sarai: and WAIT FOR IT!!!
zoe_chan: fasdhflksajdf;laksjf
zoe_chan: what???
zoe_chan: It can get better???
Lady_Sarai: ::is REALLY exercising INSANE WILLPOWER!!!::
Lady_Sarai: YOU HAVE NO CLUE!
Lady_Sarai: ::MASSIVE FLAILAGE!::
zoe_chan: ::squees herself::
Lady_Sarai: BLARGH!
zoe_chan: so...
Lady_Sarai: EDWARD AND BELLA OMG.
zoe_chan: I'm already a third of the way through
Lady_Sarai: I read it in one night.
Lady_Sarai: day.
zoe_chan: I'm...
zoe_chan: considering that
Lady_Sarai: yeeeah.
zoe_chan: I don't have to work tomorrow
zoe_chan: I babysit at one.
Lady_Sarai: tomorrow is your New Moon day, I thus decree it.
zoe_chan: I can theoretically sleep until noon
zoe_chan: (and I loved Bella hearing his voice in her head in... the town whose name I cannot remember. I think it eally was him--not a delusion)
zoe_chan: ah, Port Angeles

Around this point, we started discussing several topics at once and the New Moon talk wound up getting inserted into the other conversations, so I'm cut/pasting related bits...

zoe_chan: I'm...
zoe_chan: obsessively reading
zoe_chan: but still talking!
Lady_Sarai: I will spam you and HAPPILY listen as you obsessively read.
zoe_chan: hehe!
zoe_chan: Oh, Mike
Lady_Sarai: what'd he do now?
zoe_chan: Dream on, lad
zoe_chan: Oh, asked her out to a movie
Lady_Sarai: heee, yeah.
zoe_chan: movie
zoe_chan: Sweet-but-not-too-bright
Lady_Sarai: yeah
zoe_chan: OMG, reckless Bella
zoe_chan: who wants to CLIFF-DIVE
Lady_Sarai: OMG. YES.
Lady_Sarai: BELLA!!! AND I FLAIL A LOT!
zoe_chan: me too
zoe_chan: ::SQUEEEEEEEEEEEES VIOLENTLY::
zoe_chan: "This is reckless and childish and idiotic, Bella," the velvet voice fumed.
Lady_Sarai: I KNOW!!!!
zoe_chan: I love/hate Edward
Lady_Sarai: yes

Then we went to bed, and the next night, she IMed me:

zoe_chan: I finished New Moon today
Lady_Sarai: SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111
Lady_Sarai: OMG EDWARD
zoe_chan: ::shifty eyes:: I looked up when the next one comes out--late August/earky fall is the ETA

(LJ-ify your IMs before pasting!)

And that? Is really the sum total of everything I feel about these damn books. I am consistently reduced to screaming, gleeful, flailing CAPSLOCK. :)
