hello twihard nation
i love twilight's chapter 7: nightmare so much, man. bella's literally like "i received knowledge that completely altered my perception of the world and was about to freak out. but i listened to some punk rock then had a nap and a walk and a bowl of cereal and now i'm chill". icon behaviour
Bella’s dream🩸
twilight, again. another ending. no matter how perfect the day is, it always has to end.
prints + get a tee with my design and have 5% of the proceeds donated to medical aid for palestinians + commissions info pinned to profile :)
these two are both so insane like the way he’s like “im going to break into ur house 🧛” and her response is just ok but he’ll never find my keys 🙄
twilight renaissance happening once again (in my brain)
Interesting we tend to associate Twilight with autumn (at least that's the vibe in fandom and I feel it, too!) when most of the story actually takes place in . . . not autumn.
Most of the first book takes place in March, with a little at the beginning in January and the Prom in May. No autumn at all.
The second book starts in September, although technically still summer because autumn doesn't start until around the 21st, but then skips to January. Again the climax of the story happens in March.
Eclipse is all May/June.
First part of Breaking Dawn takes place in summer (August - first half of Sept) then there's a time skip to just before Christmas and the confrontation with the Volturi happens on New Year's Eve.
The most "autumn" part of the series are the blank page months in New Moon.
guess who is rewatching / rereading twilight
humbling
people saying "write what you want to see in the world!" and that's always a good sentiment but this post isn't really about "oh no there's no content for my ship", more the feeling of "i looked up something that i thought was so obvious that surely plenty of more seasoned ao3 perverts would have thought of it already, but apparently i'm the weird one"
Omg yes finally someone else whos an autistic bella believer LOL. Im reading twilight for the first time and im on new moon. Im autistic and find Bella to be really relatable at times and honestly hate that so many people dislike her because she seems a bit awkward but ive always seen it as shes autistic. What made you also come to this realization?
I don't know if there was a specific thing that made me realize Bella can easily be read that way, I'm not sure if it's something I came to on my own or if I just saw others online point it out and agreed with that take? I think I just have a tendency to notice autistic traits in a lot of characters I like, it gives me a new lens to analyze her character & relate to her through. Or maybe it's just projection lol
It wasn't a headcanon I had when I watched the movies, but a lot of the way she's characterized in the books just really stood out to me, I was surprised at how much more relatable I found her in the books. It's especially apparent to me when the other characters are making comments about her behaviour that she's not conscious of, like Edward in midnight sun making note of her constant fidgeting. Also beyond her behaviour, she thinks a lot about how she constantly feels like she's observing her peers' teenage behaviour from the outside and how she's not in the mood to be human, and it's meant as a nod to her being Destined To Be A Vampire (She's Not Like The Other Girls) but thoughts like that really resonated with how I felt about my own peers a lot of the time. I think Bella's inclination toward the supernatural can be read metaphorically as a lot of different things (which is why I also like queer readings of twilight).
idk, it just makes sense to me! it's just about her vibes. I see weird girl I say Oh You're Going To Be My Favourite and then I hit her with the autism beam.
“for never was a story of more woe than this of juliet and her romeo.” 🦇🥀
Edward and Bella in the meadow 💜
if you like a piece of media that is good eventually youll more or less run out of things to say about how good it is but if you like a piece of media that is objectively pretty mediocre but also somehow deeply compelling thats how the demons get you
