#kate x garrett

I watched the Twilight movies for the first time recently and I've decided I don't care that much about the Bella/Edward/Jacob stuff.

I do however care lot of about them:

[simpfordemetri]

Good night sweetheart, I hope you are doing well on your final exams!! Could you do some headcanons on Garret and Kate with a silent partner? They are both very loud

• Garrett is LOUD. We all know this.

• But when youare around, he is like mildly quieter.

• Not that he stops being loud, he still shout about something across the room, but every now and then, he glance at you for a second.

• It’s almost like he wants to make sure you are not silently judging him.

• It only makes him more dramatic. You got this calm aura, and he is literally obsessed with it.

• You are the one who can make him pause in the middle of a rant with just a simple look.

• Kate is a firecracker.

• She loves to joke around, be sarcastic, and playfully argue with Garrett, but when it comes to you? It’s like there is this unspoken understanding that she doesn’t have to compete for attention.

• Your silence doesn’t faze her—if anything, she thinks it’s a challenge.

• She will still throw out her usual loud energy, but she sneak little glances at you to see if you are kind of impressed or reacting.

• And when she catches you smiling? You know it’s the highlight of her day.

• There is just something about having you around that calms her, but she is not quite ready to admit it.

• There’s a strange sense of calm when you are around them.

• Garrett will go on a 15-minute rant about something ridiculous, and then he will look at you to gauge your reaction.

• Your expression is usually neutral—but it speaks volumes.

• Kate, despite her wild energy, has this moment where she stops mid-argument just to stare at you. The longer you stay silent, the more she softens.

• She can’t help it. You just have this quiet power that pulls them in.

• In private, when they are alone with you, the dynamic shifts.

• Garrett is still loud and expressive—but with you? He knows when to tone it down because you don’t need the volume to understand him.

• Kate may be playful and sarcastic, but she will also sneak in soft moments of affection, usually without saying a word. She will probably touch your arm, your hand, give you a soft look that makes her teasing smile so much more intense.

• There is something about you that makes their loud personalities seem… quieter. And they love that.

• Garrett and Kate can finally take a breath, not having to prove anything—just being in your presence makes them feel seen.

• You ground them in a way they didn’t know they needed. They talk, but they realize they don’t have to fill the space with noise. Your silence gives them the room to just be.

• And the moments when you speak? That’s when they are fully entranced. Because when you speak, it’s so much more powerful coming from someone who is usually so quiet.

• Garrett will always be loud, Kate will always be electric, and you will always be the one holding it all together with your silence.

• They will fight. They will tease. They will argue. But at the end of the day, you are the one who will keep everything from falling apart with just one look or a gentle touch.

• They are a mess. But you’re their calm in the storm. And they wouldn’t have it any other way.

Balance.

Happy Valentine's Day

No one in Twilight ever loved anyone more than Tia & Benjamin love each other or Kate & Garrett love each other.

And I FIRMLY believe that.

Thinking about how the main vampire couples in the Twilight universe seem to always answer a specific need or desire for one half of the couple.

Esme's greatest desire was a kind man, someone who would listen to her and let her be herself, and she found her mate in Carlisle, who first showed her an example of that kind of man

Jasper's greatest desire was hope and stability and he found his mate in Alice who can always stay ahead of the curve and give him assurance and who never settles for the worst case scenario

Rosalie's greatest desire is sort of torn between wanting to be a mother and a need for contentment and honesty--enter Emmett who is both childish and who always says exactly what he's thinking.

Kate and Garrett are a most interesting case because they fulfill mutual desires. Garrett, the perennial wanderer unable to stay in one place for any length of time needed someone lively and strong to keep things exciting, while Kate, with a long string of lovers behind her needed someone interesting and tenacious who she could never tire of.

I suppose Bella and Edward fulfill mutual needs too though. Neither of them have any conscious desires about love or relationships, but they do have unconscious needs. Bella, who has spent literally her entire life being responsible for her mother instead of the other way around has developed into the kind of person who always puts herself last, to a fault and thinks of herself as plain and "Painfully average" looking-- she needed someone who would highlight her worth, which Edward does (even if I think it could have been illustrated better). Meanwhile, Edward is... well there are a lot of theories on what Edward is. Common ones ranging from autism to near-asexuality and those are good, rich theories. My personal thought, though, is that Edward is largely just very repressed. He grew up in a repressive time, his father was very absent so he and his mother became very attached and I wonder if (and this is speculation of course) she wasn't a bit like Renée herself, except instead of being an irresponsible parent she was an overprotective one. What we learn of her in midnight sun, objecting to Edward's aspiration of becoming a soldier, is perfectly normal parental behavior; but what must the inner workings of your mind be like to have the will to figure out, as a fever is killing your brain, that your doctor isn't human and whatever he is he can save your son by making him inhuman as well and you would rather that than your son dying? Did Elizabeth Masen have latent abilities? We'll never know, but if she was so overprotective then it may very well be that Edward, even subconsciously, felt stifled by her and wanted to break away from her, but not through getting married or finding a lover, which may have seemed too disrespectful, so he focused obsessively on joining the war instead. Whatever the case, I believe Edward's greatest need was simply something to be passionate about. He genuinely enjoys his running and his cars and his music, but it seems that he approaches them all with nothing more than just enjoyment. Nothing seems to light any kind of fire in him. Carlisle loves Esme, but it's clear that he's passionate about his work. The same can be said of Rose and her mechanics, Alice and her fashion, Emmett and his sports. Jasper is written very poorly in the text regarding his interests outside of his violent love for Alice, but what we're told in the supplemental material paints an avid scholar, and I believe that Jasper does love his studies, the chances he's been given to exercise his intellect after a century of being wasted on destructive pursuits (although you could argue that he's passionate about war, i think the key there is that Jasper's talent for war stems from his strategic intellect rather than a natural inclination to fighting).

I suppose what Edward really needed was a muse.

     Garrett flung himself at her, knocking her to the ground again. He bound his arms around hers, locking his hands around his own wrists. I saw his body spasm as she shocked him. His eyes rolled back in his head, but his hold did not break.
