Esme Platt is rebuilding her life; unsigned divorce papers in one hand, a toddler in the other. A foggy fishing town on the coast of Maine offers a quiet home for her child and a perfect hiding spot for herself. Until one day she runs into a man hiding a secret more horrendous than her own.
Apparently recreating Up with Bella ISNT a suitable sleepover activity
Emmett disagrees
Rosalie checks with Alice beforehand- cuz she isn’t TOTALLY insane - but she will never admit to anyone that she didn’t want Bella to fly away
Carlisle no longer lets Emmett near balloons
Edward and Esme will throw each other at Bella in hopes of catching her
I’d also like to imagine that Alice is in the trees - pushing Bella in certain directions, to ensure she doesn’t fly out onto the road or anything
And Jasper is perched in his own tree- with a basket of darts. Every so often there would be a pop, and Bella would be slightly lower than she was before
Holy heck I can’t help but imagine the school talent shows the Cullens have done over the years, and them having to do the craziest things possible while still appearing human
Alice has juggled 15 apples at once, held Emmett over her head, ate fire, made a dress in under a minute, and one year did a one woman production of Annie - start to finish
Rosalie has planked with Emmett on her back, deadlifted more than triple her weight, and has been roped into performances via both Alice’s ballet AND musical phase
Jasper does whip tricks, and he plays the banjo. hes never been super duper into school events, but he’ll do anything Alice asks him to , and he loves showing off to her
Emmett has done anything and everything you could possibly imagine one could in a talent show. He loves to dance, and sing, and break things, and tell bad jokes - this man has done it ALL! His favourite performance would be “the stage fire of 76’ “ from when his puppet show went horribly wrong
Eddie has only ever played the piano, cuz he’s a lil punk
And you can bet your butt he most certainly has played Backstreet boys- at Emmett’s request
And obvi this goes without saying- esme is THERE for every single performance! And she cheers and whistles and gives a standing ovation every single time !!
(Carlisle of course will always go when he can, but also he’s a busy man, cut him a break )
I can’t help but think about the Cullens being amazing ice skaters
I think Rosie and Emmett would love to just skate round and round, with the occasional twirl and trick. I think it would be an activity that really shows how graceful Emmett is capable of being. It’s just very sweet and gentle to think about
Oooh part two baby ♀️✨
Jazz and Alice are perfect and in sync - doin the craziest tricks you’ve ever seen in your gosh dang life. We saw them dancing!! We know what they’re capable of ! The image of these two being so graceful on the ice is really cute to me
Teehee it’s part 3 ✨✨✨✨♀️♀️
These two are total saps and now I will not take no for an answer
They just wanna have an excuse to hold hands - not that they need one
And also I think that they wouldn’t let Eddie skate alone, and they’d each hold one of his hands cuz they love him
Okie last part
Okie Bella “falls out of windows” Swan is not allowed to ice skate in any way shape or form
Blades on her legs? No way
Ice to slip on? Never
Put her in a bubble so she can be totally safe ? Yes!
Emmett and Alice play BasketBella? Not when Edward finds out

Came across this post by@molina-hoe earlier today and then @spanishinfluenza and myself had a lovely time discussing a potential kids swap, because we love vampire milfs and just… the idea of it was too endearing. And no, Edward did not escape unscathed. Not that he should… homeboy needs some actual discipline
With the announcement of HBO buying the rights to one of my absolute favourite TV shows and the further announcement of it getting a reboot next year, I have decided to do a mashup post.
SO , I want to give my thoughts on Twilight Characters and their Degrassi counterparts. Please feel free to tell me if you disagree or agree or have anything to add.
Bella:
Clare Edwards. Clare is a character that is shown time and time again to be passionate about her interests (journalism and writing) and is loyal to her friends when they are in need. She also is seen by some of her friends to have a strong affect on boys (queue ‘I will never understand the affect Clare Edwards has on Men’) like How Bella shows up and miraculously all the men are attracted to her. She finds herself caught in multiple love stories where she learns to stick up for herself and must make decisions about what she truly wants.
Edward:
Craig Manning. Craig shows up and instantly has girls frothing at the mouth for him. He’s dramatic and broody and doesn’t really give up when it comes to finding what he wants. He is talented with Music similar to Edward and also like Edward will often come off as very intense when expressing his feelings towards others. He also leaves his girlfriend at the time (Manny) at the drop of a hat just like Edward does to Bella in New Moon.
Jacob:
Zig Novak. He goes after the same girl many times, and most of the times he decides to make a move is while shes in a relationship, thus creating romantic tension and a love triangle. He is also a lot of muscle and uses his knowledge of the world around him to protect himself and others on many occasions, such as Jake using his knowledge of the Wolves and the forest.
Alice:
Imogen Moreno. She knows who she wants to be friends with and knows what she has to do to become close to them. Often she will drop into conversations randomly with cryptic messages. She also has a very eclectic fashion sense. All of these are pretty much identical to Alice IMO.
Jasper :
Sean Cameron, He has a dark past that he isn’t proud of and often will have time controlling his anger, but all in all he wants to be better and often will lean on his significant other to see what he should be doing morally.
Emmett:
Spinner Mason, The epitome of a himbo, just as Emmett is. Sure in the beginning of the series Spinner was often problematic, but he wanted to learn and once he did he became a reliable source of support for all his friends. He is also super tough and does ‘whatever it takes’ to look after people on many occasions.
Rosalie:
Paige Michalchuk. Paige is queen B at Degrassi for many years. She is gorgeous and confident while still wanting to be there for those she cares about. Much like Rosalie, Paige has also had an unfortunate history with men and it gave her a fire to fight back and look out for others in the future.
Carlisle:
Marco Del Rossi. Marco is the dad friend. He is super smart and wants to put his skills to good uses such as running a blood drive for the school. He always looks out for others (except in a few random episodes) and does his best to make sure that his friends voices are heard.
Esme :
Holly J Sinclair. I’ll be honest it took me a while to think of who matched Esme and the best I could come to was Holly J in her later seasons. In the beginning holly J is definitely nt kind or caring, but I feel that these parts of herself come out more in her later seasons, especially in the Fiona storylines where she is so caring and helpful in trying to help Fiona with working out her sexuality.
Charlie :
Principal Archie Simpson. He is an absolute angel that is not getting paid enough for the amount he has to deal with from these kids. He constantly has to try and hand out advice to children that often aren’t listening and will stand there dumbfounded while still being supportive of their decisions.
Seth :
Adam Torres. Adam is the best, he is the best boy and I love him. When Adam is on screen I have the same fun filled reaction to when I see Seth. Adam is young but he just wants to fit in with his friends and be able to do all the cool things that his brother does even if it gets him into trouble. He wants everyone to get along while still making sure to stand up for himself.
Leah :
Many Santos, She is a bad-ss. Manny has had a few failed romances but she never lets it hold her back, she uses that as a fire to go and get what she wants get it while scaring you half to death.
You know, for Twilight being four books of almost everyone around her (I say almost because Charlie actually respected her decisions even if he didn’t like them) infantilizing Bella, acting as though she’s this confused little girl who doesn’t know anything, who can’t be trusted to make her own decisions, Bella was actually one of the fastest to figure things out
She figured out that the Cullens were other, based on their eye color and other patterns
She weaseled the legends out of Jacob and figured out they were vampires on her own
She outsmarted fucking Jasper, getting away from him to sacrifice herself at the dance studio
She was able to remember the legends and figure out that Jacob was a werewolf when she was in the midst of her haze of depression and numbness
But her most intuitive moments all come in Eclipse
She outsmarted Alice and Edward by making the snap decision to go to La Push before they could stop her
It took her a very short amount of time to figure out that Victoria was back when Jacob and Edward had their weirdly cryptic conversation about the night the wolves and coven chased her
She was the one who put it all together later, that it wasn’t the volturi creating the army or invading Bella’s house, it was the same vampire messing with Alice’s vision and entering her house as the one creating the army in Seattle. She even figured out that Victoria was involved, and she was right
Even later in Breaking Dawn, she outsmarts Edward by calling Rosalie to protect the baby, and later on, she’s the first to realize that the Volturi are coming because they think the Cullens created an immortal child.
Everyone around her acts as though she doesn’t know Jack shit, that she is nothing more than a human caught up in a world she doesn’t understand. But girl is smart, she could pick up on patterns the rest of them couldn’t, and figured out some of the most vital information of the series. She deserves more credit, sure she made horrible decisions with her love life, but she’s got some good intuition.
