So there is nothing about this that does not 1) crack me up and 2) amaze me. I cannot even believe how you are rocking all the prompts that have nothing to do with what you would normally write, except that I CAN, because you're fantabulous. Of course we have to be the only two people on LJ who have actually seen Shark Attack 3: Megalodon (Did I get that right?), which means everybody probably thinks I pulled that line out of my ass or something. But since I don't care what everybody thinks, WHATEVER.

This is hilarious. And perfectly in character. And I love that you're dedicated enough to this Christmas fic thing that you even get a new icon every time you post a fic!

Specific things I love:

He glares at the men sitting up front, as though by merely existing as a presence that makes her feel even the slightest bit uncomfortable or objectified, they have done something unforgivable.

This is so exactly Edward, which I am qualified to say, having seen this movie something on the order of four hundred thousand times. It was always one of the reasons I fell for it even though I knew it was horribly antifeminist and against all my better instincts. Because he was different, and I loved that so hard.

I love the way you worked in the line! I mean. THAT LINE. Not easy to use in casual conversation outside of the amazing of the shark attack film, right? But you pulled it off effortlessly, and damn. Made it adorable. You have such insane skills.

And OMG he wants to, in a totally hot and sweet and not even a little gross way, because he loves her, and she's all wait what? Because clearly she's still not quite used to being treated right by a man, and dude, this is all so insanely adorable.

And he swears he’ll tip five hundred dollars if the guy speeds it up already.

YES. Edward 100%. Throwing money around even in his head. This gave me such a huge smile when I finally sank down on the couch and pulled it up. THANK YOU. For writing this and for just geez. I can't get over how you are rocking all the different writing things. I still haven't had time to express my insane appreciation for your Ava/Boyd! Yikes. ♥

Aww. Beebs! You've been so supportive of all this dorky foreign-to-me writing. And for that I can't honestly thank you enough.

Bwah. I should have explained where that line came from in my rambling author's notes. But I don't think people think you're a perverted freak, even if you don't care what they think. Heee.

I'm so glad you like this! And yeah auuuugh. I love this movie even though it IS anti-feminist you just HAVE to love Edward because he wants her to be treated like she's everything, because that's like...what she is to him. (Am I revealing to the world my total dorkish girlish nuttiness yet? Oh, what's that you say? Just by writing this I have said a lot about myself, Ray?)---OMG your icon.

And I just couldn't resist making an icon when I stumbled across that pic. I mean... how adorable is Vivian in that bathtub scene?

Stuckey is like... the most perfect scapegoat for that terrible line. This prompt was for any pairing I wanted, but he was why, in the end, I had to go with Pretty Woman.

Muah. ♥

This confirms the fact that there is NOTHING that is not on youtube. OMG. That just made me die laughing, YET AGAIN. Well. At least now everybody will know that I couldn't make that up. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Best. Movie. Ever.

[adrenalin211]

GOD. Is that not the funniest thing EVER? OMG. That came from out of nowhere, not even left field.

I can't even believe it's on youtube. Oh wait. I can.

Don't they know that THIS is how you kiss people? *points to icon*

(Ridic aside: Thanks to the scrunched Firefox tab I had open, before I even saw the *points to icon*, or even the icon you used, all I saw was Don't they know that THIS is how you kiss people? and I was all, "Like how Edward is about to kiss Vivian on the vagina? Hell, yeah!")

(Also: I hope you are feeling miles and acres better, sweets!)

[adrenalin211]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Like how Edward is about to kiss Vivian on the vagina? Hell, yeah!

OMG. You have no idea how much I'm laughing right now.

That's totally the right way to kiss people. SNORT. *dies*

(Also, a bit cold medicine loopy and hard to not OD on advil with whatever the hell this is, but I'm sure I'm on the mend. Or will be soon. Thanks for asking)

[leigh57]

DON'T THEY KNOW THAT'S HOW YOU DO EVERYTHING SEXY AND INSANELY LOVING TO PEOPLE EVER, THE END?

Stupid people.

[adrenalin211]

THIS.

Exactly. A no brainer.
