I don't normally read much fan fiction but just popped in. Nice story start RR1. Interesting pairing, I was always a fan of Bella. She had so many story possibilities that were never explored. You're doing something to fill the gap.

Great summing up RR1!! My only addition to that would be that these days the writing is lazy. They seem very reluctant to tackle issues which arise in relationships and have people actually work through them. It's also my feeling that there is too much reliance on constant and repeated high points of drama with the result that they lose their impact.

I loved that storyline as well.

I have to agree with this post. I have been watching the show since the early 90's and have thoroughly enjoyed many of the iconic characters over the years. Unfortunately the producers are slaves to the harsh realities of commercial TV. If a show doesn't draw an audience and with it paying advertisers then it doesn't last. Hence the "shape-shifting".
