edward really summarized his life in one sentence
Being a good person doesn’t mean that your thoughts will always be kind. It doesn’t mean that your thoughts will never be petty, judgmental or even downright mean. It simply means that you recognise when those thoughts occur, you may attempt to rectify them or combat them, or you simply don’t act on them. And Edward Cullen, sanctimonious bastard extrordinaire, still doesn’t recognise that, even after listening to people’s thoughts for a century.
imagine rosalie and edward going to high school when it was just the two of them lmaoo
- “oh yeah, the cullen siblings? they hate each other. but for whatever reason they don’t hang out with anyone else”
- “yesterday in gym class, the blonde one hit a baseball directly into the back of the guy’s head. it should’ve, like, dented his skull or something but he just looked mildly annoyed”
- they constantly bicker at lunch
- no one can hear what they’re talking about but it’s hard to miss them literally pouring beverages down each other’s shirts
- they even go to prom together, which would’ve been weird if it weren’t so painfully obvious that romance is the last thing they have between them
- the whole time they’re needling each other with insults while simultaneously outshining everyone else on the floor
- even though they fight 24/7 it’s obvious that they don’t completely loathe each other because one time in chem a guy said something vulgar about rosalie and edward just so happened to accidentally spill half a gallon of sulphuric acid on him
- luckily the teacher was female so edward was able to get off the hook but everyone knows it wasn’t an accident
- mainly because the chem lab doesn’t have sulphuric acid and about nine people watched edward take a mysterious white jug out of his backpack while deliberately staring at said boy
- but if it was good enough for the police it’s good enough for EVERYONE ELSE
- carlisle decides it might be best to homeschool them for awhile after that
Edward Cullen
Midnight Sun is incredible because despite being able to read minds, Edward is so self-involved we still don’t know a single thing about any other character or their motivations
Edward Cullen
A list is things smeyer thinks teen girls find sexy
hang on a minute, just hold on. so, edward is talking about when he rebelled against carlisle and started killing rapists and this is what the book says:
“From the time of my new birth,” he murmured, “I had the advantage of knowing what everyone around me was thinking, both human and non-human alike.”
so are you telling me... are you telling me that edward cullen can read the minds of animals and i never even considered it??
Edward every single second of his life having to hear the thoughts of horny teenagers, creepy teachers, and his family that just bangs each other 24/7:
Yknow what? Edward was right to have left, but he should have told Bella why he was leaving.
I think that Edward's moral compass is an important part of his personality, more important than his love for bella. He should sit her down and be like "Bella, I love you more than life itself, but this isn't right. I dont want to do it anymore. I cant live with myself when I'm wasting your time as a human, holding you back, risking your life, etc etc" because when one person revokes their consent, the relationship shouldn't continue!!!! And then Bella doesn't have to wander around believing that Edward doesn't WANT her anymore, or whatever.
I think one of the most harmful messages in twilight is that love isn't valuable unless its forever. Whether they had a year or a month or even just one day in the meadow, its enough!! Its love!!! Its good enough!! Edward should leave because he needs to because he's a vampire, he CANT stay with her forever!!
This is all I got out of Midnight Sun
A fact Edward Cullen would never admit to: he relates to Steal My Girl by One Direction on a spiritual level and sometimes he runs half way to Canada just to listen to it without his family overhearing
it’s a good thing edward can’t read bella’s mind because if he ever found out that the first descriptor of him she ever thought was “lanky” he would have to block out an entire weekend just to cry over it.
do you think bella ever forgot edward was like stone and dramatically dropped her head onto his chest and almost got a concussion
With all the dumb shit he says, of yeah for sure. Carlisle once noticed a bruise forming and Edward lost his ever loving mind and then decided to wear sweaters or very thick tops layered so Bella would have a cushion.
Could we also consider:
