*As I stare into his dark brown almost black-coloured eyes with my sky blue eyes. He's so cool... I can only think to say aloud to him as if confessing my undying love for him..*

"Tanner.... you're so cool.." *I speak with a nervous and quiet tone as a light pink blush dusts my cheeks, I look at him shyly as I wait for his response...*

"I'm not a kissboy." *he hisses with a tone filled with hatred and anger, he's glaring at me as if he loathed my existence, I can only think to tear up at his pure despise for my words...*

(I thought this would be funny to write)

The strap of Joel's bag slips from his shoulder, tugging at his arm as he reaches into the pocket of his coat. After the eight-hour flight and the rush from the airport, he wasn't sure if he'd remembered to take his phone off airplane mode, but the phone call answers one question. Or make that two questions, he thinks as he catches a glimpse of the name at the top of the screen.

Swinging his carry-on back over his shoulder, he changes the hand that is on the suitcase and adjusts the phone before tapping the accept button. "Hey, I--" Someone walking the opposite way along the sidewalk has to sidestep his bags, and he waves apologetically before continuing to the front of the building. "Sorry. Hey! Happy almost New Year. Or... happy New Year's Eve? I guess?" Chuckling, Joel glances up to make sure he has the right address. All at once, the anticipation rises to the surface, but he would hate to ruin the surprise now after having put so much time into planning the trip. "So... three days, huh?"

Joel's voice coming over the line instantly lifts his spirits, and he smiles in amusement as he listens to his greeting. It's a bit chaotic, but it's still the best thing Tanner has heard since the last time they spoke. "Nobody wishes anyone either of those things, J. It's just happy New Year starting at like, Christmas." He leans his head back against the couch, still smiling as he stares up at the ceiling. "And hey. What's it like in the future? Do we have flying cars yet?" Tanner wonders who Joel rang in the New Year with. Whoever it was must be gone now, because the background is quiet on his end. "Three days," he agrees, feeling the ache of loneliness once more. "I wish you were here now. Kissing your picture at midnight isn't going to be the same," he jokes half-heartedly.

"it's less about who alice is than what she can do for bella" is the only sentence you need to sum up both alice's entire existence and every last crumb of character Discourse so let's type it out again but big

it's less about who alice is than what she can do for bella ✨

The first Twilight book ending with so much genuinely intriguing information about Alice that is immediately ignored is so crazy to me that it’s honestly funny.

The other vampires don’t necessarily remember their human lives well compared to their vampire ones but they do clearly have a lot of memories that inform who they are as people. And then we find out that Alice remembers almost nothing about being human and is the only vampire we meet who basically had her entire personality be created from only her vampire life. And the idea of who someone would be if they had only ever been a super powered future seeing non human is interesting, and it would have been especially interesting to see how it makes her act different from the others and perceive the world differently because she wouldn’t in any way identify with humanity or being human and any human experiences.

And then she just is exactly like everyone else and no it didn’t actually affect a single thing about her personality. And the fact that as both a human and vampire she has never experienced time in a linear fashion is way less impactful on her character than one would think beyond that she used future sight as a helpful tool.

Smeyer is so wild for creating genuinely really cool character and world building ideas and then immediately ignoring them and not considering that they would in any way correlate to how that character acts

Oh for sure! There are so many fascinating little character details that just . . . don't . . . go . . . anywhere. Really Alice waking up as a vampire with no memory of anything else is SO interesting and could be such a contrast to the others, but it's only sort of hinted at and doesn't end up really mattering at all. There's Edward's line about how if she hadn't had her ability to see the future and saw Jasper and Carlisle and where her life would end up, she'd probably have turned out to be a feral monster or something and how no one could understand how she could be abandoned like that. SM pays lips service to the idea that Alice doesn't remember being human but she mostly uses that to like, push her into being obsessed with human rights of passage for Bella that she can sort of live vicariously through rather than a deeper, more meaningful exploration of what it would be like to be in Alice's shoes.

Genuinely, I'm fascinated by every single one of the Cullens' stories as newborns except Bella's, because it's just the most boring one. She doesn't give up or lose anything, she doesn't wake up to a world she didn't know existed. She's about as well-informed as a human could be and she wants to be a vampire and is instantly good at it so it's all just so . . . blah. Alice waking up with no memory and superpowers and insatiable thirst is about 1000 times more interesting. Just imagine how disorientating and confusing and frightening that would be! Carlisle lived out his own horror movie as a newborn, being bitten on a vampire hunting raid gone wrong, hiding during his transformation out of fear his father would burn him alive, realizing what he had become and trying to destroy himself before he hurt anyone ending with him starving himself in the woods for months. Jasper, too, had a whole horror movie where he was the nightmarish monster, to humans as well as other vampires. And the other Cullens died and 'woke' up to a new life they had no idea about and had to lean on strangers they either barely knew or didn't know at all. That's the interesting stuff. That's what I like about vampire stories. But these experiences barely matter to how they act in the present day. Jasper's poor self control matters in some scenes and doesn't matter at all in others. Rosalie's baby obsession is a big feature of Breaking Dawn, but Esme, who actually had a lost a baby, might as well be wallpaper in that book. Edward's going on about how could he ever love this thing if it kills Bella, meanwhile Carlisle's mother literally DID die giving birth to him and it never enters the conversation.

And for SM, Alice's whole "doesn't remember being human" ends up being focused entirely on like, shopping and parties and clothes, so she can live vicariously through Bella. And on one hand there's something interesting then there, something pathetic (in the pathos sense) with Alice trying to understand humanity in this sort of superficial ways because she doesn't have the experience or memories to go any deeper, but it's mostly portrayed as just wheee isn't Alice fun! I wish I had a sister/best friend like Alice! It's just blatantly obvious that it's less about who Alice is than what she can do for Bella.

Even in New Moon where we find out that Alice has been researching her own history, found her own grave and asylum admission papers, and it goes nowhere! It doesn't change how Alice behaves at all, it doesn't change her relationship with Bella, Bella just kind of goes "huh interesting" and we never hear about it again. I mean Alice goes through it in these books and you wouldn't even know! She finds out that James had hunted her when she was human and this other vampire turned her to save her and died defending her. She finds out she was put in an asylum by her father and he told everyone she was dead. And even though she's the 4th most prominent character after Bella, Edward and Jacob, there's still no room in the Bella-centric narrative for Alice to have the space to actually deal with any of this. She's too busy fulfilling her role as Bella's fairy godmother sister.
