I just have this terrible feeling that Stephenie Meyer did the whole EJ thing as misdirection because she thought otherwise Jacob falling in love with Bella's daughter would be too predictable

#I have no proof it's just a guess #like I get that EJ is far from her only useless plot point #but I just.... have a feeling #this is how her brain works #op #twilight #bella swan #Jacob Black #renesmee cullen #twilight renesmee

I like the idea that some vampires become obsessively fixated on children and childlike things because they see children as a perfect representation of the innocence and purity they no longer have. It's delightfully eerie to think about a rash of immortal children, of vampires becoming so obsessed with possessing a child's purity that they steal the rest of that child's life and erase everything they ever could have become in order to keep them in a state of perpetual innocence. And I do like the implication that the Cullens themselves are slightly warped in this same way.

However. I absolutely do not think Stephanie Meyer recognized any of these traits in her characters. I'm almost positive she thought shit like Rosalie being attracted to Emmett as a lover because his boyish features reminded her of the son she could never have was a totally normal and relatable thing to write and we would all find it extremely romantic.

#op #twilight #Rosalie Hale #Emmett Cullen #I think it's interesting how the vampires have this obsession with purity while also craving growth #because those two things are kind of anathema #but I also absolutely do not think Stephenie Meyer was capable of exploring those themes

My friend and I were talking about how pickup truck drivers are almost always complete assholes with virtually no exception and then something rather shocking occured to me

#Bella drove like a complete asshole it just never came up because it wasn't relevant to her relationship with Edward #op #shitpost #twilight #bella swan

I always found EL James's take on Bella re: kids kind of weird. The Ana version of Bella doesn't want kids specifically because they might interfere with her relationship with Christian, while OG Bella accepts that she can't have kids if she's with Edward but it's hinted several times that she'd want them if things were different. Idk where I'm going with this, I just feel like EL James took the absolute most toxic possible reading of Bella and Edward's relationship because she can't distinguish between BDSM and abuse. There's a huge difference between "I accept that if I'm with this person we won't have children" and "If I'm with this person I don't want children because I don't believe our relationship could handle it."

The clearest evidence that Twilight was written by a white suburban mom is Bella describing rap music as "a voice shouting angrily to the beat"

#tbh in 2006 even most suburban white women were listening to at least some rap #it had either broken through to the mainstream or was in the process of breaking through to the mainstream #op #twilight #bella swan

#I'm so obsessed with these #also first time I realized how odd it is that Edward accepted Bella as a vampire so easily #like that was literally his nightmare but when it happens he's like... actually this is pretty cool #tbf I guess he's 17 so he doesn't really know what he wants even if he thinks he does

If you don't think twilight is 2000s enough the heroin is literally named IMS

That's not a typo btw. Bella is the heroine of the novel, but she is also, far more importantly, the heroin of the novel.

Just a reminder that Bella and Jacob's fathers are named Billy and Charlie so by the law of Bella making the worst possible decisions her son with Jacob would have been named Barley

And then presumably when Edward falls in love with Barley he'll nickname him Bar-Bar Binks but human Bella won't be able to beat his ass for it

We don't talk enough about Renesmee being born on 9/11

#this makes me even more certain that Stephenie very specifically wanted Bella to be dead for exactly 3 day before resurrecting #for.... no reason #op #twilight renesmee #renesmee cullen #twilight #bella swan

I understand why Haymitch didn't tell Katniss that after he won his games he blew up the fucking arena but god I wish I could see that conversation. "Yeah, nice job with your little berries, exploiting that obvious loophole really made the hunger games look stupid, but have you considered blowing things the fuck up?"

#more proof that katniss and haymitch are the same person in katniss going on to blow up another quarter quell #the hunger games #thg #hunger games #katniss #haymitch

Putting Bella and (human) Edward in a hunger games AU is kinda frustrating because they'd both be SO hellbent on getting the other one out alive but neither of them is smart enough to think of the ultimatum with the berries so realistically Edward would just be on the ground housing nightlock while Bella tries to wrestle it out of his mouth like a dog

Conversely if Emmett were in the THG universe I think he'd be a Capitol citizen who defects to the districts, but only so he can volunteer for the hunger games

I'm not crazy about the super on-the-nose district character names in The Hunger Games so I headcanon that this whole thing of using baby names related to your district industry wasn't fully by choice but rather something the Capitol heavily encouraged to further alienate the districts from one another (Katniss even thinks the D1 names are stupid) and to reinforce that your sole identity is what you provide to the Capitol, and that's why people keep walking up to Katniss and saying shit like hi I'm Bluetooth Wireless and I'm good with computers

#like in what universe would people in a command economy willingly name their children after their industry #I will say that in the context of the weirdass dystopia name trend these names at least serve a purpose #by reinforcing to the reader that the districts are culturally dissimilar #but I don't care for the dystopia name trend unless it's used REALLY well (eg handmaid's tale) bc it distances you from the characters #op #the hunger games #hunger games #thg #hunger games commentary #beetee latier
