“At LeAsT EdWaRd UnDeRStAnDs CoNsEnT”

You know you guys are talking about a guy who literally planned on murdering her, stalked her before they knew each other, snuck into her bedroom to watch her sleep, stalked her out of town, snooped through her things, made her do things she doesn’t want to do (prom, parties, wedding) disabled her truck, BROKE her truck to get rid of it even tho she loves it, told her she couldn’t see her best friend/true love bc he’s dangerous even tho his entire purpose is to protect humans from vampires and even tho his brother tried to kill her and every single near death experience she’s had is bc of vampires and him. 💀

i love that in the first book, bella’s free time from school & dealing w moody vampires is just. cooking dinner & reading the same book 5 times in a row.

it may seem like a lack of character development- but i too spend most of my time trying to remember the basic necessities i need to not die & hyperfocusing on a single piece of media for 8 months.

I just got an absolutely genius idea (stupidest idea ever). In Good Omens season 3 Jesus should be played by Robert Pattinson, that way he can face off Barth Crouch jr and Aro at the same time

#yes I saw that meme and got the idea #but imagine the references they could make #also Robert pattinson would be pretty great #and hilarious #good omens #good omens season 3 #neil gaiman #jesus #david tennant #michael sheen #crowley #aziraphale #harry potter #barty crouch jr #cedric diggory #twilight #aro volturi #edward cullen #robert pattinson

Everyone always talks about Esme scoring with Carlisle cause of the whole hot doctor thing but can we talk about CARLISLE scoring with ESME. LIKE THAT WOMEN IS BEAUTIFUL. SHES. SO. GORGEOUS. AND JUST AN AMAZING CHARACTER IN GENERAL. AGH. MOMMY.

(Yes, I’m queer.)

It was there, sitting in the lunchroom, trying to make conversation with seven curious strangers, that I first saw them.

They were sitting in the corner of the cafeteria, as far away from where I sat as possible in the long room. There were five of them. They weren't talking, and they weren't eating, though they each had a tray of untouched food in front of them. [...] But all this is not why I couldn't look away.

I stared because their faces, so different, so similar, were all devastatingly, inhumanly beautiful.

Teenie me in 2012 everytime the Team Edward VS Team Jacob conversation came up

Based on a true story...

For the attraction I felt for Aro I was considered weird by friends and my auntie. Today I know the Michael Sheen charm hitted me!

Wiggins!) the bizarre thing about the vampire men in the cullen family all seem to be at least subconsciously what Smeyer wants Bella to have but can’t seem to get over her initial vision of what she saw in her drafts or whatever. It’s odd that every single one of the Cullen men are like strongly devoted (but mostly devoid of personality because it’s so Bella centric) but when you compare them to Edward they seem interesting in some ways. Like Narratively we’re supposed to have this threat that Edward is constantly holding back from killer her but I don’t feel like we see that. Conversely, Jasper is constantly the one who is suffering about human smells and is the more vampire-like. But he’s also a glorified lap dog. So it’s like ‘oh he’s a monster but he’ll never hurt me” (things Alice has said out loud. Man even psychics slip up. I swear her powers weren’t so accurate until Smeyer needed an excuse for plot reasons)

Emmett feels like when some women say they like waifish guys because they don’t want to seem like they’re vapid for liking “big dudes with muscles” so of course you pair Emmett with the “shallow blonde”

Carlisle, I swear only exists so Edward has someone to model but I would also argue that he’s proto-Edward before whatever reworking she had to do when writing Twilight for a YA audience and brought him back as a different character.

Yeah a rant

hello again bestie Wiglet! (note to self: learn Photoshop so i can shop Jacob's bad wig onto a pic of Piglet)

this is such an interesting take! thanks for sharing. i totally see what you're saying. in all the Cullen men we see both a blend of softness & devotion *and*, interestingly enough, a patchwork of patriarchal ideas of what a man "should" be. & this idea comes to the forefront with the depiction of the love interests

smeyer wants us to see Edward as the chivalric gentlemen from the Days of Yore. we see this in the opening doors, the cutsey little romance taglines ("you are my life now," "look after my heart; i've left it with you," "so the lion fell in love" etc), the knight saving the damsel in distress, the expensive tokens of his affection, etc.

at the same time, in both Edward & Jacob we see the crude traits of the Patriarchy Dreamboat kinda guy. if i had to sum it up, it's like the guy you see in 80s movies. "bad boy." "opposites attract." he's a jerk. he's a hunk. he's domineering. he's allowed to show emotion only & especially if that emotion is anger. he's persistent in his efforts to get the girl, going so far as to kiss her without her consent if it's For a Good Cause (Edward in New Moon post-Volterra, Jacob in Eclipse). he's a cool guy who's In Control 👉😎👉

perhaps that's why the Twilight saga appealed so such a large swath of women & girls. the women, who grew up with the notion that they could have the true love of their dreams so long as they submitted to the patriarchal social contract, saw the contract being fulfilled in Edward. (i.e., "you can be the king if you treat me like a princess.")

on the other hand, the 90s/00s girlies who grew up in the midst of a feminist revolution & who could see the glimmer of a dismantled patriarchy on the horizon were attracted to Edward for the flashes of radical feminist love they saw: the unapologetic expressions of emotion, the honesty of him sharing his vulnerabilities & weaknesses, Bella's ability to override Edward's will when necessary, etc.

sorry, i know this isn't really the crux of the rant you submitted, but it is extremely interesting to see these contradictions playing out in all the male characters of the saga. it's almost like smeyer is having this internal debate with herself without even realizing it...

#twilight meta #twilight renaissance #the twilight saga #i have been reading too much bells hooks (jk that's impossible) and have been thinking about radical feminist theory & #how it actually both applies and does not apply to twilight #i've been wanting to write a meta about it but fuck it #fuckmeyer 2.0 only takes meta requests i guess #anyway you brought up a really good point about how the cullen men are all a mix of what smeyer wanted Edward to be #and yet she was too afraid to realize the vision to its fullest extent #like yes she wants the muscles but she wants Edward to be soft and loving and delicate #and she wants Edward to have an Unforgivable Past but not SO unforgivable that he's completely damaged goods #and she wants him to be Devoted but not SO devoted that he's 'pussywhipped' #and she wants the devout religiosity and Goodness of Carlisle but she recognizes at the same time that women & readers want conflict #my response was getting long and frankly i didn't want to derail or dtract any further from the facts you were spitting but #i see what you're saying and i think you touch on something very incisive about the vision versus the execution of twilight #if we imagine a saga in which Edward WAS balls-to-the-wall Edward...what kind of character would we see? #that is another meta for another time but WOW am i thinking about this Intently and how different the saga would be if smeyer were to Commi #thanks for sending this my way!!! #cheers <3

The Most American Things About Twilight

Native Americans are misrepresented and dehumanized (literally)

being 18 years old forever is seen as a desirable thing and not a living nightmare

there is loads of violence but almost no sex

a fetus's life is prioritized over that of a mother

a mother dies in childbirth

rich, evil vampires survive the series while poor, evil vampires are ripped to shreds and burned

children fight a war

a teenager leaves their parents home to start their own life and plans to never return

the school system is so broken and lazy that it doesn't notice when students are literally (un)dead

the death penalty is Good sometimes

cars are characters

the difference between states/regions is emphasized

a vampire coven is seen as powerful even though 7/8 members are less than 100 years old

Europeans Are Weird and coming to the New World is the only way to Be Free

regularly hunting megafauna without a license

baseball

Christianity = morality

the power of the individual: with all of his infinite wealth and influence, Carlisle decides to help people by... being a small town doctor. which, like, he's not wrong about, doctors definitely help people. but it's kind of the Batman problem, right? is that really where he's most impactful? get involved in some aid groups, man. lobby the government or something

#sigh #yes I'm blogging about #twilight #stephanie meyer #don't worry #this isn't what my blog is now #but #twilight renaissance #having thoughts about #bella swan #edward cullen #and the mess that is forks washington #feel free to add ones I missed

Do you think Bella ever gets the intrusive thought to bite Edward and remembers all her teeth would fall off if she tried?

[petratherrock]

Edward trying to get himself killed after hearing Bella died is really peak emo behaviour. Is it stupid? Yes. Totally in line with the behaviour of someone stuck mentally at the age 17? Also yes

#look mannn bro dude #edward cullen #bella swan #twilight saga #edward x bella #new moon #stephenie meyer #being older and rereading this series gives me a stroke and also nostalgia yes it's kinda dumb but man am i being pulled into it again as i #was when i was 13 also yes

So we all know Stephenie Meyer has mentioned how My Chem had an influence on the books while writing, and she published “soundtracks” for each book on her blog with:

“i’m not okay (i promise)” in her soundtrack playlist for twilight,

“this is how i disappear” and “sleep” for her soundtrack playlist for eclipse,

“the sharpest lives” in her playlist for breaking dawn

Stephenie Meyer has jokingly said that Gerard would have made a good Edward, and that he was a fan-fave when they were casting the film.

She started writing Twilight in 2003-2004 with the book being published in 2005.

If we had gotten Gerard as Edward, he would have looked like this:

I think everybody should put all of the characters from their favourite fandom into Tomodachi Life so they can see who everybody would end up with and so they can see their favourite characters do weird shit.

#I've been doing this with twilight and i think its the best piece of twilight media i've ever consumed #Emmett asked out Jess whilst she was dating mike and when she said no he asked her to meet again and mike came and rejected her for him #then he asked out Esme and she told him no #and the only couples tgat have actually said yes to each other are surprisingly cannon ones #Edward and Bella are together and so are Mike and Jess #twilight #twilight saga #twilight renaissance #bella swan #edward cullen #jessica stanley #mike newton #tomodachi life
