i feel like people focus too much on edward’s unenthusiastic first impression of bella’s appearance when this is literally how he talks about her after he falls in love with her

Bits from a current portfolio I put together as a chem TA working on nothing important lol.

I feel like a lot of the complaints about Bella and Edward’s relationship lose their edge when you keep the inspiration for the series (a dream about a boy and a girl in a meadow talking about the difficulties of being in love with him wanting to kill her— he’s a vampire) in mind

If you start there and work backwards, then of course they’re going to have a whirlwind, all-consuming, all around bonkers start in their relationship. Smeyer really leaned into the “he wanted to kill her” bit (best decision she ever made tbh), so for the relationship being worth the constant risk and struggle, the feelings had to be drastic.

For example: it causes the boy pain (literal and emotional!! Bloodlust is crazy in twilightverse!!) just to be around the girl, so he’s got to be so irrationally obsessed with her that he wants to watch her sleep to even put up with being around her. Now the girl’s got to be enough of a freak to match him, otherwise there’s no story

Smeyer’s writing has plenty of problems, don’t get me wrong. But Bella and Edward being freak4freak is a feature, not a bug
