Thanks for answering! đ„°
Yeah I think I would agree with that!
I've wanted to ask this for weeks and forgot time and time again, but after the ask about fire and now the one with the twins getting hurt I finally have to get it out:
Do you think the twins reactions to fire are different from each other? Does one hate it more? After your post about which one is more evil (which I still absolutely LOVE by the way) would maybe Jane for example get next to fire if Aro orders it, reluctantly probably, but she would do it, and Alec is refusing it completly? Does Jane maybe react more to the sight of fire and Alec hates the smell more?
Oooooo I love this!
See the thing is, there gifts manifested basically on what they wanted in that moment right? Jane was furious, she wanted to cause pain. For her, fire and flame are akin to fury, and she has plenty of it. She can be around fire quite easily given how its used to turn the enemies of her coven to ash. The only time she panics is when she is forced to be near fire. The heat emnating from the flames is too much for her and she will completely meltdown.
Alec is the one who completely wanted to be numb to it all, to forget it was happening. He cannot stand anything to do with fire, though he can somewhat control his reactions. Those who know him well will see the way be stiffens at the smell of smoke, see the way his nostrils flare and he hisses quietly when he sees it engulf a person. Enemy or no, he doesn't wish this fate on anyone. He adamantly refuses to be near fire. You'll see when Irina dies in breaking dawn, he remains on Demetri's left hand side, always keeping someone he trusts between him and the flames.

Some messages left by queer Palestinians who face annihilation by the Israeli government in their retaliation against Hamas. The Israeli government has dropped thousand of bombs, leveled streets, cut off water, gas, and electricity, bombed hospitals, ambulances, mandated evacuation and then bomb evacuees. Innocent people are dying in the mass.
There is no need for this government to employ these acts of collective punishment. The same logic that is used to condemn the acts of Hamas, should be used to condemn the actions of the Israeli government. No one deserves to slaughtered and dehumanized.
And keep in mind, that this terror is not unusual for the Palestinian people, and this is another horrific event in a decades long oppression and apartheid.
This is hilarious đ€Łđ€Ł
that fateful day at forks high began like all days at forks high did: by being described in excruciating, slow-paced detail.
today was no exception. after having a nightmare, bella got up, greeted the vampire in the corner (she was very observant), had a human moment, ate pop-tarts, slipped on a patch of ice, & scrabbled to her truck.
but today didnât feel like a normal day. not bc the classrooms were empty or bc posters had been pasted up around school announcing a new student. instead, bellaâs observant, effervescent mind made her feel this narrative setup in her bones. it was almost as if bella had the qualities of a third-person omnipresent narrator instead of a regular teenage girl.
sure enough, as soon as she stepped into the buzzing cafeteria, mike clasped a hand around her shoulder. âhey, bella!â
as you could probably guess by now, mike was in love with bella. she was an arizona girl that liked the rain. since girls from dry places didnât like wet places, bella was not like the other girls.
âyouâre just in time,â he continued. âthe new girlâs about to arrive.â
bella chewed her lip. âoh. new girl?â she just had a nightmare about a girl, so it was weird that there was a new girl, just like in the nightmare she had. it was almost like bella was narratively  set up to have the power of premonition. almost. Â
after rejecting several of mikeâs sexual advances w/ patience & deference (as a good woman should), her eyes caught her statuesque white vampire bf from across the cafeteria.
today, edwardâs eyes were a dandelion lemon starburst honeydew mangalope yellow, her favorite color. he wore a sleeveless white button-up that complimented his white undead face. Â in one hand he held a red apple which he kept with him at all times in case an allusion to christianity or greek mythology popped up.
bella bit her lip, yearning to raw dog this edwardian gentleman.
âhey edward,â she said, going for a kiss & getting rejected, âdid you catch the thoughts of the new girl yet? everyoneâs talking about her. i think somethingâs up.â
but on the other end of the table, alice flailed around with a permanent marker, scribbling on a lunch tray.
edward gazed at the apple as if it were a symbol symbolizing his crisp, sweet desire for forced symbolism. âyouâve nothing to worry about,â he murmured, pinching the bridge of his nose.
âwait a sec. alice is having a vision,â bella said, eyes narrowing. âsomethingâs up.â
âyouâre too stubborn & observant for your own good,â edward murmured, looking angrily down at the apple. âlike eve observing the serpent in the garden of eden.â
âshe has incredible power; i can see it,â said alice, still flailing & seeing. emmett leaned over to glimpse her work. â& her name is stephenieâŠmeyer?â
emmett said, âanyone else feel like aliceâs drawing looks like joseph smith?â
& as if on cue, she entered.
bellaâs mouth dropped open. a rush of estrogen washed over her. âholy crow,â she whispered.
with her brown hair & brown eyes & brown lashes & plain-but-beautiful face, only their fashion choices separated bella from the new girl. while bella wore a t-shirt & khaki skirt, stephenie dressed less like a feminist whore with her floor-length white maxi skirt, ivory turtleneck & beige cardigan. she also didnât wear makeup. she was not like the other girls.
âpersephone,â murmured edward, golden molten butterscotch honey topaz eyes glittering. Â
she was gorgeous in a heterosexual way, like how bella felt about rosalie. like, so attractive bella could cry. but only because bella was insecure about her looks, not bc bella was gay or bi or whatever haha
bella touched his white forearm. âi told you to stop calling me that.â
ânot you,â murmured edward. âstephenie meyer. the angel, come to hell. sheâs as beautiful as you, my love.â bellaâs heart melted. he lovingly rejected her kiss.
âsheâs a god,â said alice, eyes shifting. âi can see it. she controls the universe. sheâs rich, mormon, & fulfills her domestic duties just as a good woman should. iâm 100% straight but stephenie meyer would be my dream girl, hands-down.â
bellaâs blood froze. wasnât bella supposed to be aliceâs vaguely homoerotic girl friend??
emmettâs eyes narrowed. âanyone else think she looks weirdly like bella?â but rosalie was too busy admiring her reflection in the face of her pearlmaster 39 diamond rolex watch w/ 18ct white-gold index dial & diamond-set oyster band, edward was ruminating over his soul, alice was still flailing, & jasper was daydreaming about licking daddy jefferson davisâ boots like the spineless confederate he was, yee haw
so only bella heard. panic bubbled in her chest. âwhat? stephenie meyer looks nothing like me.â Â
at the sound her name, stephenieâs eyes locked on the cullensâ table.
edwardâs sexy pale white hard marble triple-double-diamond vampire bod crumpled to the floor.
âedward, whatâs wrong?â asked alice. she was concerned about edward because he apparently had redeemable traits that made the cullens care deeply for him, itâs just not relevant to bellaâs story
âoh, god,â edward moaned in a murmur. âsheâs reciting the word of god.â
the ripe, juicy, succulent, voluptuous red apple had smashed to bits in his clenched fist. this symbolized edward willing to do anything & everything to destroy his temptations so long as it fell within the confines of a PG-13 storyline.
âiâve got to marry her,â he murmured possessively.
âif i wasnât a product of stephenieâs festering insecurities, i would say sheâs as pretty as me,â snarked rosalie. âbut iâm too vain & catty for that.â
bellaâs knees wobbled at rosalieâs voice. visions of rosalie stepping on her neck blipped through bellaâs mind, which was def a real thing that could happen bc rosalie was an absolute goddess of a vampire with heels higher than the empire state building & thighs thicker than the brooklyn bridge, heterosexually speaking
âright?? if you put bella & stephenie next to each other, the only difference wouldââ emmett couldnât finish his sentence bc all the cullens sans edward had a medical condition that prevented them from saying more than 25 words per 400 pages of text; itâs very common, you can google it
âwe are not the same,â said bella, her voice rising. âedward, please! we donât dress the same, act the sameâyou know we arenât the same, donât you?!â
edward turned broodingly to bella. âdo you believe in god, my love?â
âi donât know.â all bella knew of religion was her motherâs fad diets. âiâm either a keto or a lutheran. do lutherans have gods?â
âall my life i thought i was a soulless monster,â murmured edward. â& we could get into a thematically relevant debate about what it means to have a soul, but the detailed account of your morning has made it impossible for me to make a compelling case without sacrificing important exposition, so letâs forget i brought it up after this conversation. the point is, iâve discovered i do have a soul. & she has given it to me.â
âwh-what are you trying to say??â said bella. âwhat does she have that i donât?!â
âthoughts,â murmured edward. ânot her own thoughts, butââ
âall she does is recite scripture!â
âshe doesnât just recite scripture,â murmured edward. âshe is scripture. my scripture.â
he cried a single tear. bellaâs tearâyes!, the same one he had eaten that fateful day in the meadow. it tumbled from his chiseled white cheekbone, crashing onto the bits of smashed apple below.
âno!â the true nightmare had just begun. edward didnât love bella!
she passed out.
october
november
december
january
these were the only months bella learned in primary school, but she listed them all to make sure she didnât have a concussion
meanwhile, the cullens & the student body of forks orbited stephenie, praising her & quoting the bible & reassuring her that, yes, despite her hoarding an absurd amount of wealth (& giving nothing back to the indigenous ppl she wronged), she would definitely be getting into the kingdom of heaven
what if stephenie had come to replace bella? what if stephenie was bella? or what if none of this was real? what if bella had passed out in the woods again & was being carried back home by a bare-chested sam? (no doubt the rosiest scenario, but hey, a girl can dream)
&, as if on cue, the cafeteria doors burst open.
âi heard thereâs a new girl in town.â Â Â
âjake!â bella said for no other reason other than to identify jake.
jake loomed in the doorway, a hulking eight feet & fourteen inches. instead of sporting his bare rippling abs & tight jorts, he wore a rippling xxxxxl t-shirt with Mormon Boys Are My Favorite Toys printed in rainbow lettering. over that he wore a turtleneck sweater. over that he wore a pinstripe suit w/ a monogrammed lapel; in fact, it seemed that every inch of jakeâs typically objectified, UNDER-EIGHTEEN body was clothed.
behind him stood the quileute teens, all scowls.
âquick!â said jacob, throwing bella a shopping bag. âput this on & follow us!â
bella dropped the bag because she was clumsy, then she tripped over the bag because she was clumsy. bella was so clumsy. then she pulled out a bowling shirt, cuffed jeans, & doc martens. meanwhile, the crowd of students grew louder, larger.
âif you want to get out of here alive, youâre going to have to dress like the disaster bisexual you are,â said jake over the growing cheers of the student body. ânow!!â
âjake, i canât, you know iâm too het for these clothes!â
âhet?? ok, strong disagree,â said leah, poking her head out from behind jakeâs nine-foot-five frame.
at the sound of leahâs voice, stephenie shot her a glare. she & leah were natural enemies. for reasons.
from the back of the pack sam shouted, âwe can have a healthy nuanced discourse on sexual orientation after we escape smeyerâhurry!â
âsteph-en-ie! steph-en-ie!â cheers & howls drowned out the wolfpack. bella slipped into her new attire & bolted out of the cafeteria.
âwait, solike, what just happened?â bella asked. she could run alongside the pack even though she lived a completely sedentary lifestyle & was just described as clumsy. âwhoâs the new girl & why am i pretending to be bisexual?â
ââpretendingâ?â leah smirked
jake said, âitâs smeyer. sheâs writing a new book.â
âsmeyer?â
âif you say her full name, you summon her.â jacobâs voice dropped to a murmur. âsheâs trying to destroy her world.â
âher world? you mean ours?â
ânot yet.â jake shook his head. âitâs her world. we are her world. & the more she adds to it, the worse it becomes.â they burst through the side door into the gloomy afternoon. âweâve got to take back smeyerâs canon before itâs too late.â
âwhaâholy crow, she has a cannon? Â Â what?â
âjake, câmon,â said sam, car keys jangling in his hand, âwe can talk meta later. smeyerâs going to follow us if we stick around.â
bellaâs head spun. âw-well if she knows where we are, who we areâhow the hell are we gonna stop her?â
whipping out a pair of shades from the folds of his monogrammed lapel, jake said, âwell honey, lemme tell ya.â he slid the shades over his steely eyes. âfirst things first: we reclaim her characters.â

Aww :)
I have a crush on this on guy... We we're really close, and we tell each other everything. I feel like he likes me too, because whenever I approach him and his friends. They start pushing him towards me. I never had a boyfriends, and i never felt like this...
ahh young love
Btw, this is how conservatives keep getting to claim that trans people are a new thing no one has ever heard, because our history and existences have continually been erased or obscured systematically through out history.
The most famous example was 92 years when the Nazis raided the library of the Institut fĂŒr Sexualwissenschaft, the medical practice where the term transsexual was first coined and the first gender affirming surgery was performed in in 1931.
What did the Nazis do after raiding the library on May 6th, 1933? You may be familiar with these images
It is happening again.
OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH <33 and honestly, I did all of these things you mentioned :(
I will message every single one of you beautiful people. You donât have to reply but if you want to I will continue the conversation. I dont care if I get 1 hour sleep for the rest of my life I will do this. I honestly care and I donât judge. I love each and every one of you and if the above is true for you, please donât go through it alone, even if you just click reblog who knows what a difference it could make not just in your life but maybe one of your followers is sitting at their computer screen in tears and seeing this gives them some hope?
Loving environment protecting Volturi! I knew I was team Volturi for a reason
The Volturi eating people has a lesser impact on the environment because it removes one of its main polluters which is in an abundant supply everywhere. It's been pointed out that the Cullens have to feed more than normal because of their human charade so they are constantly eating a lot of animals EACH (because animals are small and their blood is less filling anyway so I imagine eating Bambi is the equivalent of eating draining all the blood in a humans left leg and just...stopping there) and off the top of my head I can tell you of maybe 3 animals who actually pollinate certain plants so...whose the real bad guy here? đ
Yup, you heard it here folks. The Cullen's are being problematic.
