Wow, this story was something right up my alley! For some reason, I really, really like the idea of future!Bella becoming disillusioned with vampiric life, and coming back to warn her younger self. I had tons of fun reading present!Bella's incredulous reactions to the absurd future her canon designed for her, and... while future!Bella might be hard on herself, in this story they both show more common sense than canon!Bella ever did.

I think it wouldn't hurt to include just a bit more explanation of what exactly made her change her mind about vampirism (maybe she missed the dreams? Or the sun? Maybe she got tired of being supervised and controlled all the time? Maybe she longed for a career which the forever-eighteen appearance prevented her from having?). Either way, it was a real treat.

Thanks very much! :D I'm glad you enjoyed it, and could see exactly what I was intending!

You know, I was thinking of that, too. I might go ahead and write a prequel that would take place during which future!Bella would have a wake-up call and realize what mistakes she's made. So that's a good idea! I think it would be a great thing to shed light on that.

Thanks again! :)

Awesome job. It's nice to see Bella finally get her grip together, and give some common sense to her past self.

Thank you so much! >w< That was exactly my intention! Plus I even wanted to develop her character a bit and add as to why she's a little bit awkward around people, since really...Meyer knows nothing about depth.

You know, maybe a sequel is in order! ;) That's true, it would be neat to expand on it and see how Edward goes about all this.
