Teh Sparkly

[donnaimmaculata]

Everything I know about Twilight I have learned from my flist, and I know that I will never, ever read the books. I never intended to waste any words on them, either, but I would like some confirmation that what I've now read is true:

Bella gives birth to Edmund's Sparkly!Vampire!Magical!WerewolfSoulmate!Baby and the following things happen in the process:

a) she pukes blood
b) the Sparkly!Vampire!Magical!WerewolfSoulmate!Baby breaks her pelvis and her spine
c) Edmund uses his awesome sparkly marble teeth to bite the Sparkly!Vampire!Magical!WerewolfSoulmate!Baby free from the womb

Really? I mean, seriously? Because if so, then this is the most beautiful cracky squick ever, and I am seriously impressed with SMeyer. I would have never dared to put anything like that into a novel I intend to be published and read by children.

Then again, I am not a romantic :-(

Heh! I can actually imagine that normal people are not aware of the meaning. I know I often come across RL people whom I would expect to be familiar with, ah, relevant terminology, but then it turns out I've got to explain the bloody obvious.

Some time ago, I had to explain what "butt plugs" are - to a woman in her 20s, who studies media and knows her way around the Internet. And has a sex life, presumably. I was quite shocked, I can tell you.
