Official Description: I used to think I was average, you know, dull and boring. Then I found out I was a shape-shifting, reincarnated death goddess with a knack for vengeance, the boy I’m obsessed with is my immortal enemy, and my friends are werewolves. So much for average. Also check out the extras, outtakes, and dirty little tidbits: The Misadventures of Bird Girl and Fang Boy.

goldenmeadow says: Little known, way under-read, sadly underappreciated: The Cygnet and the Strigoi. This is one of my favorite fics, and I’m a fickle bitch so you’ll want to read it.
Styx, Nyx, Night, Nemesis, Zeus, Olympus…phantasmagorical. And high school with its first love, initiative touches, teenagers wanting and waiting in the goddamn wings, Edward and Bella begging for a normalcy that will never happen. With simmering sultriness, we watch Bella as we have never seen her dance around the beautifully untouched Edward we know and love.
In creating a legend of her own based on the Strigoi Vii and the Strigoi Morti, the Greek Gods and personifications of human emotions, SureYouAre has completely captivated me and unearthed a story that explains some of the mysterious traits of canon Bella and Charlie.
The Cygnet is baddest Bella as a mythical creature herself, unbeknownst to her until she gets palmed off on Charlie in Forks. He is in on the fantastical gore. The web-weavery is sumptuous and brilliant craziness. The magnetic beastly pull between Bella and Edward is magnificent, and their mysticism seems to twine back through the ages. The lore is fucking kill-your-mind. The humor is dark, lush, scathing, biting and SureYouAre’s writing is up on high.
So far beyond my imaginings, SureYouAre constantly has me thinking, “What the Fuck?”, “Oh no she di-in’t!”, “MMMmmmm.”
Dark Bella and somber Edward, both lusting for blood and body, raw and worthy.
Alternate Universe my arse. This is like a tale written from inside the insidious Black Hole as it tears up that Alternate Universe and sucks it into its nebulous bursting innards.
One of the sexiest inside-outty tales of Twilight I have had the pleasure of reading. I implore you to do the same. Oh yeah, and it was awarded a Blue Ribbon on Twilighted. I don’t know what that means, but it’s good, right?
