You have always been a creative and passionate girl. And I don't know if you remember this, but when you were young, you had all these characters you would come up with. And you used to have these little shows for your mom and me, using the living room as a stage. I think my favorite was the blind farmer. She would stumble around, bumping into all these furniture, yelling, "Has anyone seen a brown cow?" But in middle school, you had a brief affair with theater, and you were really into drama. But no more blind farmers. It had to be serious. Preferably life or death. But as a teenager, you became an activist and you developed a strong passion for gun control, which you got so serious i had to pick you up from the police one time for egging Walmart employees for selling weapons. It was obvious it came from your big heart, but I have to admit, I think part of it was about you rebelling against your dad too. You know, the dad who works in the military and happens to own a rifle. The same rifle which mysteriously disappeared right around that time. You remember that? Wasn't that a wild coincidence?

Imagine Bella being immune to vampire venom. Edward wasn't able to suck all the venom out and her body ended up used to the small amount of venom left over and she's bitten again and can't change.

GENINUELY one of my favorite AU scenarios.

And I personally think it makes more sense than the biology behind Renesmee's existence, but your mileage may vary.

In my head it works sort of like a vaccine; she's been exposed and now has the antibodies to fight off the effects of venom. She doesn't feel pain when bitten (other than the pain of teeth breaking her skin) and she can't be turned.

It totally upends all her plans and puts a REAL obstacle in place for her and Edward to be together. Before it was just Edward not wanting to turn her which, sure, is a problem but a fairly easy one to get around: she knows a bunch of other vampires, one willing to try to turn her (Alice) and another with a proven track record of successful turnings (Carlisle). It's not impossible.

Her being immune does make it impossible though. I could be here for the tragic impossibility, how there's no way for them to be together forever now.

But I ALSO think that in such a scenario it might be possible to make a cure for vampirism from Bella's blood. I think if you want happy fairy tale ending for your vampire story, the way to do it is 'unhappy vampires become human' not 'unhappy human becomes vampire; other vampires still have same problems that made them unhappy.' Good for Bella she was following her bliss as a vampire in BD, but I never got how Bella being happy made things any better for Rosalie, or Esme, or Carlisle, or Jasper. Emmett and Alice were reasonably happy as vampires already, or Alice at least didn't know anything different. Rosalie and Esme wanted to be mothers, not aunt/grandma. And Renesmee literally grows up so fast they're missing out at most of those baby/toddler/childhood experiences anyway. Plus Breaking Dawn doesn't really address the issue of whether Bella lost her soul or not, or if Renesmee even has one at all. Edward's happy in BD but will it last or will his worry start creeping back in with time? He's got plenty of it.

But if Bella's blood could be used to make a cure and the option to become human is a thing . . . that gets SUPER interesting to me. Who would take it? Is it reversible? Like, could Rosalie and Emmett become human, have a couple of kids, age until their 30s or 40s and then ask Alice and Jasper (who presumably stay vampires) to turn them back? Or is it one way choice and they become immune to venom like Bella is? Part of me thinks Carlisle deep down wants to be human more than Edward and Rosalie even do (he has crafted his whole vampire lifestyle around being as a human as possible--a job, a wife, kids, a house . . . all very weird for a Twilight vampire) but would the knowledge that he could help more humans as an immortal doctor than a mortal one hold him back? Would he and Esme stay vampires to watch over Edward and Rosalie/Emmett if they all became human? Would the Volturi see this power to turn vampires human as a threat, a weapon?

And just the irony of the one person who wanted to be a vampire being the one who can't become one and whose blood has the power to turn the vampires she loves and envies human. Delicious.

Billy: Here’s how I try to look at it, and this is just me, this thing being out there, it’s like there are Vampires loose in the Highschool. There are vampires loose in the Highschool. I think eventually everything’s going to be okay, but I have no idea what’s going  to happen next, and neither do any of you, and neither do your parents, because there are Vampires loose in the Highschool. It’s never happened before, no one knows what the Vampires are going to do next, least of all the vampires. We’ve never seen them in a Highschool before, they’re as confused as you are. There’s no experts.

They try to find experts in La Push. They’re like, “We’re joined now by a man that once saw an bear in the forest.” Get out of here with that shit! We’ve all seen a bear in a forest. These are vampires loose in the Highschool .

When Vampires are loose in the Highschool, you got to stay updated. So all day long you walk around, “What’d the Vampires do?” The updates, they’re not always bad. Sometimes they’re just odd. It’ll be like, “The Vampires are having lunch with Charlie’s daughter?”

I didn’t know they knew how to do that. The creepiest days are when you don’t hear from the Vampires at all. You’re down at then beach like, “Hey, has anyone heard-” Those are those quiet days when people are like, “It looks like the Vampires have finally calmed down.” And then ten seconds later the Vampires are like, “We’re gonna cause a seven car pile up and set a ballet studio on fire. We’ve got a sharp teeth and marble skin, We’re vampires!” That’s what I thought you’d say, you dumb fucking vampires!

Then you go to brunch with people and they’re like, “There shouldn’t be Vampires in the Highschool.” And it’s like, “We’re well past that.” Then other people are like, “If there’s gonna be Vampries in the Highschool, I’m going to jump off a cliff.” And those don’t match up at all.

And then, for a second, we were like, “Maybe the werewolves will stop the vampires?.” And then the Vampires are like, “I have made a treaty with the werewolves.” It can do that? That shouldn’t be allowed no matter who the vampires are.
