How many of you realized today is Edward Anthony Mason Cullen's birthday?
I didn't even but thank you Lexicon.
(most beautiful drawing I have ever seen of him)So their site has started a list of 107 things we love about Edward. Lets make our own.
(closest thing to our real Edward)
And really if anyone reading this claims themselves to truly be a Twilight fan, this is the kind of post where you walk the walk, or whatever anecdote fits. How can you NOT leave a comment here and claim to love Twilight, in

And of course our
Movie Edward:
27 comments:
1. his selflessness, always thinking of Bella and trying to make her happy.
2. His chivalry
3. His gentlemanly manners
4. the way he touches Bella
Which brings me to another train of thought. We started a list spontaneously a few months back of what Edward makes sexy. So either list what you like about him, or what he does that is sexy. (if I find it I will add it to this list to get us ahead.) If we never finish then I will pull some answers of the Lexicon, but I'm quite certain we can do it.
For instance
5. Edward made the name Edward sexy
6. cold hands
7. cold lips are sexy now too
1. Butterfly's in the stomach from those black eyes.
2. Marble chest
3. Diamonds in the sun
4. The neck, the chin, the jaw, everything he touches with his nose instead of kissing Bella. It is so much more intense, so much more sensual, and yet proves the theory you don't need smut to be sexy! Finally!
5. Romance that he brought to all our lives, even if it is only fictional romance.
Okay, there is the beginning of my list. Happy Birthday Edward!
Let keep the numbers running. So if I seperate out all of AWB's we are now to #14.
Yay!
14. His voice. In my mind, he has an incredibly sexy, beautiful voice.
15. The fact that he is indestructible, yet vulnerable.
16. His amazing amount of self-restraint.
17. And last, (and one of my favorite things about him) the fact that he plays piano and writes songs.
Ahh, Edward...where to begin...
18. His hair! Whether it's wet, windblown, nicely combed, or he tousling his hand through it, he never has a bad hair day!
19. How he protects Bella.
20. He's so polite.
21. He's very loyal.
22. His crooked smile!!
23. How he learned how to cook dinner for Bella by watching the Food Network, even though food is gross to him.
24. Because he was "that boy."
25. Because he's strangely moral for a vampire, let alone a human guy. :)
Okay, and for some sexy things, which is pretty much everything!
26. His protective stance he takes in front of Bella before a fight.
27. The way he writes.
28. His driving.
29. His temper.
30. When he raises one eyebrow, or both!
31. How he pinches the bridge of his nose.

33. How he catches things before they hit the ground.
34. How intelligent he is, he can answer a question in biology while concentrating on Bella.
35. How his eyes smolder...
36. His scent...(sigh..how can we know what that smells like?)
OK! I'll stop now!
I just have to say how much I LOVE all the pictures!! Wow! Nice job on putting pretty much all the favorites of Edward on this post. Love the mountain lion!! Ha! And everyone should know that MA herself put that new picture together herself of Edward and Bella kissing, with the forest background and the amazing quote beneath. The new one up top. I know, she's something else!
Ok, a few more...since I'm already here...

39. His love for his family, especially his parents.
40. That he became friends with Seth, even through all their immense differences.
41. How about the way he walks...
42. How mentally tough he is, even when Jane is torturing him, he doesn't make a sound, Aro is awed by that.
43. How amazing he must look in a black tuxedo!....(sigh)...
44. How much he still loves Bella even after she kisses Jacob.
45. How badly he wants Bella to be happy for herself.
46. That he didn't really destroy her pictures, CD, etc when he left.
47. That he sends her money as a way of taking care of her even though he's not with her physically.
48. When he tries to bond with Charlie by watching sports with him.
49. His frustration when he realizes that Bella really can accept presents--but he hadn't gotten her one so now he feels bad.
(be back later)
50. That he fell in love with Bella for who she is, not just how beautiful she is to him.
51. That he works so hard to find his humaness.

More things he has made incredibly sexy:
58. kidnapping

#73 The way he talks and whispers so seductively to Bella that it turns her mind to mush.
#74 That he never pays any attention to any other girls/women other than Bella - even though they are just dying to capture his attention.
Ok, that's all the fantasizing I have time for right now....
Oh I love everyone's comments. I really want to finish these myself, but I am sure when a few others finally stop by they will be able to complete the list for us.
Where are you Jillike, BFB, Cullenized? We need you.
Well, here's a few more, I hope that none of these are duplicates, sorry if they are...
75. When he winks
76. When he whispers Romeo's lines in Bella's ear while she tries to watch the movie.
77. How he watches Bella sleep, and never tires of it
78. How he gives Bella a helmet and riding jacket to keep her safe on her motorcycle...then pulls it off her to kiss her!
79. His clothes...of course they're all very stylish and fit him nicely, even if Alice picks them out for him.
80. His tearless sobs when he is afraid he's too late to save Bella from James, and she is hurt so badly.
81. The look on his face when he first sees Bella on prom night.
82. How he pins flowers in her elaborately styled hair.
83. The way he dances with Bella by doing all the leading. They must have looked great even with Bella in a cast and a stilletto.
84. His throaty chuckle (anyone know where that one is?)
That's all for now!
Ahh I'm not sure about the throaty chuckle. Oooh is it in the "benefits" chapter. What is the real name of that chapter anyway.
You named some of the ones I have been saving if they weren't said. Like the dance leading. Sigh.
I guess its up to you and I to finish the list. Good think that will not be a problem at all!
Right book, wrong scene though...Come on, I know you can get it...
I'm not sure about the real name of that chapter. It will always be "benefits" to me :)
Well I know having recently reviewed the last meadow scene, I do remember him saying something in a throaty way but I'm not sure if it was a chuckle. But that will be my next guess since I know you were just reading it.
I guessed "benefits" because I know Edward finds her particularly funny that night, with all of her bed comments. But I'll take your word for it. YUMMY thoughts. Thanks.
Nope sorry...nice try though. Just a "groan" in that scene that sticks out...ahhhh
85. How he tampers with Bella's memory with his eyes, scent, caressing, kissing, touching, talking you name it!
Sorry, this one has probably already been said, but I just read the "jeep kiss" so well, you know...
86. How the power and grace of Edward running is enough to take Bella's breath away.
87. Who would have ever thought that a snarl, a growl or even a hiss could be so sexy!
88. His concern for Bella's temperature. Whether it's by turning the heat on in the car or putting a blanket in between them while they are lying down, or offering his jacket, to name a few (I don't want to talk about the painful tent scene). That is especially thoughtful to me, because it's something he doesn't ever have to think about because it doesn't effect him at all.
89. How polite he is to Jessica Stanley, even though he knows her mean inner thoughts.
90. His respectfulness for Charlie and Renee.
91. How sweet that he has kept all of his mother's special keepsakes. And has given some to Esme and Alice, and now to Bella.
Well we're getting close! Your turn MA!
Oh man, what a GUY!
Ahhh. . . .
So I think it just dawned on me,
The computer kiss scene! Yes?
Yes!! The computer kiss is correct! I knew you'd get it. Reading about that 'throaty chuckle' has stuck with me since my first time through Eclipse...
Funny how we have our own little nicknames for different scenes in the books. :)
92. That he bought Bella 2 cars! The "before" and the "after" car.
93. That he could save Bella even from a crashing plane, they'd be the only 2 survivors.
94. That he is planning a surprise honeymoon for Bella.
Ok, thanks.
I will take my turn but I just can't tonight. And yes you have repeated a few. But they were worth repeating.
But how about
95 - that he "was that boy". So commited to marraige (and virtue, yah chastity, although steamy chastity to be sure).
96 - that he only ever "did away" with bad guys
97 - that he is friends with Seth
98 - that he was there for Bella when she was crying over Jacob, (sorry I had to mention that)
99- that he can control his jealousy even though it has the power to rip out trees (or eat the heart of certain werewolves)
100 - that he is truly happy only when Bella knows everything about his life.
Woops just noticed I have repeated several as well. I will review tomorrow and then add more. We need a few bonus answers to be legitmate.
101 - that his face is so breathtaking you don't notice what he is wearing most of the time.
Oh man, that's a GOOD one (#101)!!
Yep, we have both repeated a few, but definitely worth repeating!! I agree, we better go over the original 107 - darn :)
102. That he can suck the venom out of Bella's blood (even though she tastes even better than he imagined!), and be able to stop once it's tastes clean...
103. That he was the one to get to James first and pull him off of Bella, roaring in fury as he ran in, and regretted he wasn't the one to be able to finish him off. (This is one of those sexy ones :)
I'll back up to number 100 to keep us accurate.
100. That he watches sports with Charlie.
101. That he is so respectful to Charlie even during Eclipse.
102. (wanted to mention Edward running his hand through his hair, but its been done). So instead:
That he touches Bella's hair.
Brushes it over her shoulder
Catches a stray lock
Kisses it
Breathes it in,
And even brushes a strand off of her face. Whoa.
103. That he wants Bella to go to college.
104. That he couldn't take another day of the movie in Biology.
105. That he can carry Bella like she is a feather.
106. That when he can't wait for her human slowness, he scoops her up and runs.
107. That he forces her to ride on his back until she learns to love it!
Oh yes, good ones...
How about on #102 when he uses a lock of her hair to wipe a tear from her cheek (remember when he does that?)...
108. That he is still trying to track Victoria to make her pay for her involvement with and helping James, while he is away from Bella for all those months, but in the end he can be humble enough to admit he was horrible about it.
109. That he can clean and bandage her cut hand (that's bleeding!) after she falls when they're leaving a fake trail of her scent for the newborns.
A few more bonuses perhaps?
