have I found you?

merry christmas!

this is my @twilight-secret-gift-exchange present to @spacesaga. I was asked for either art, a moodboard, or a playlist for bella and edward, and they mentioned the prom and the wedding scenes were their favorite.

I imagine this little moment between Edward and Bella - laughing about something little, a moment not noteworthy enough to include in the book but perfectly representative of the simple joy they feel :3

I’ve included screensaver versions and versions with the text “have I found you” from Flightless Bird, American Mouth below.

p.s. thank you for being patient with my late gift as I was surprised with an unplanned weeklong stay in the hospital last week

My gift for @leah-clearvvater for the @twilight-secret-gift-exchange

Sorry for this piece being inexcusably late. I had to scrap my original idea because it was way too ambitious. It was fun trying to capture the likenesses of Jacob, Leah, and Seth. I decided to put borage flowers on the edges because they tend to be associated with bravery, loyalty and trust.

Hello! This is your Twilight secret santa! I was wondering what are some of your favorite Cullen relationships (romantic or familial)? Do you have any favorite headcanons about these relationships?

Hi Santa!

OK, here are some favorites that come to mind:

Carlisle and Edward. My absolute favorite. The way that Edward grows-and-yet-doesn't just makes for a delightfully angsty father/son dynamic in which they mean the world to each other and also drive each other up the wall. I'm especially thinking about how petulant Edward can be and how infuriating Carlisle's patience can be. The way they idealize each other!! The angst! Their silent arguments! The Great Soul Debate! The way they can drag each other out of a funk like no one else can! 💜

Alice and Jasper. Hands down my favorite couple to write for two reasons: their gifts are endlessly fun to play with and the ~magical element of destiny running through their story is just plain special. Neither of these two was even remotely complete without the other.

Rosalie and Edward. I just. I never get tired of their bickering. I have two teenagers and I'm just channeling Esme more than ever now because these two fight over the dumbest things and they can't even see how similar they are. And of course we all love when their bickering occasionally resolves with a sweet, awkward moment of bonding or grudging apology.

Emmett and Jasper. These two are just so, so good for each other. Their friendship is a much-needed haven of relaxation and fun and blown-off steam and easy understanding. Whether they're making stupid bets, smashing Esme's antiques with their reckless play-fighting, inventing cool vampire level games, or just listening, they're just so stinking cute.

Esme and Edward. So precious, so exasperating. She spoils him and he underestimates her. She's always fixing his hair and he's flicking it back out of place. She wants the whole world to see him play piano. He's always squirming under her well-meaning fretting. What's not to love.

This girl is powerful, he figured, knowing he was absolutely screwed if she wanted to make a move on him. So I gotta figure out the loopholes. ‘There are loopholes,’ she confirmed, smiling for the first time.

‘Now, now, sweetheart, we don’t want any trouble.’ Voice like honey, he thought, letting his lip curl into the smile he knew girls liked. This girl, with her corkscrew curls and pointy little chin…

Clicking her tongue, she then made an unimpressed face at his shirt, saying, ‘That’ll take more bleach to get out than you can afford.’

Jasper assumed she was referring to the meal spilled all down his front. ‘Fire’s the easy way out of that situation, ma’am, if you’ll excuse the barbarity.’

‘Yes—if you had another shirt,’ she said pointedly, and while she was perfectly correct, Jasper didn’t quite know how she knew he only had the clothes on his back to call his own. In fact, she was remarkably calm. Other vampires usually took one look at his scars and high-tailed it outta his way. The girl then said, ‘I’m not afraid of your scars,’ like she could hear what he was thinking. ‘I can’t hear what you’re thinking, I can just see the future.’

Jasper felt a swooping in his stomach at the thought. ‘Well, I’ll be damned.’ He carefully propped his dinner up against the nearby trash, sizing her up. Precognition was a rare gift. Those who’d had it in Maria’s war rarely survived long enough to make use of it, especially those whose powers were more than just simple “feelings”. Those folk didn’t usually become vampires at all.

This girl is powerful, he figured, knowing he was absolutely screwed if she wanted to make a move on him. So I gotta figure out the loopholes.

‘There are loopholes,’ she confirmed, smiling for the first time. It made her nose scrunch up like a child’s, red eyes excited. ‘And I don’t mind you learning them, Jasper Whitlock. I’m Alice.’

‘Miss Alice,’ Jasper greeted, an old instinct wanting him to tip a hat he wasn’t wearing. Again, like she was reading his thoughts, she—Alice—smiled, letting out a short burst of laughter, spinning around in a circle to release all the energy trapped inside her. Rather than worrying or annoying, it was…almost mesmerising. Jasper could feel all her joy. It spilled from her like soda pop, fizzing and bubbling over all her edges. It was light. Free.

She told him, containing her excitement on the outside and only doubling it up in her heart, ‘I think we could be good together, if you wanted to.’ Love, he thought, knowing the feeling of it from long ago. She loved him.

Well.

That was a gamechanger, weren’t it?

‘Miss Alice,’ he repeated, letting the idea sit in him for a bit. He thought about taking her to walk at the park and asking her what her favourite colour was-

‘Lilac!’

-and what kind of flowers she liked when she was human-

‘All of them, though I can’t remember being human very well, or at all, really!’

-so he could get to know her, just as she was. Maybe then, then, he might consider staying with her forever. Jasper wiped his bloodied hands on his equally as bloodied shirt, then felt a pang of guilt. If they’d been mortal, the both of them, neither would have thought a dead body to be all that attractive, he was sure.

‘No,’ Alice agreed, a flash of sorrow hitting him like a whip, before it was soothed by hope, fragile, fleeting, then compounding until all of a sudden, he felt it tie together in a great rope—a lifeline, meant just for him. When she stepped forwards, taking his outstretched hand, Jasper found he didn’t care about who she used to be, or who he used to be either. ‘No,’ she repeated quietly, ‘but we can find Carlisle Cullen, and we can live without the death. Blood isn’t something you find in humans alone. We can try.’

Empathy, Jasper found, could often be a curse. But as he held hands with a stranger named Alice, who had already captured part of his heart, he found that today, it was a gift.

This ficlet and moodboard is for @edwardsshinyvulva

Merry Christmas, my dear! I hope you enjoy this fluffy little date with a happy and carefree Edward & Bella

Edward & Bella's best date ever <3

It's an overcast day and they've driven to an empty beach. They walk hand in hand on the shore and lay out on a flat rock, listening to a playlist Edward composed just for her, sharing the earbuds on his iPod. Some people start to near their rock, so they put on hoodies to hide themselves, closing the hoods tighter than they need to, dissolving into giggles. Edward rents them a bicycle - when Bella protests that she doesn't know how to ride, he tells her he doesn't expect her to, just hop on! They ride down the boardwalk as the cloud obscured sun starts to set. Edward takes her to a secluded spot, where he surprises her with snacks and a guitar, and he serenades her as she eats. When she's done, they dance in the sunset...well, Edward does the dancing while he carries Bella, but she loves it. Finally the sun has set and they spend a few hours stargazing before heading back home where they snuggle in Bella's bed until morning.

Twilight Secret Gift Exchange

Disclaimer: I've really struggled with writing these last few weeks and the time pressure on this hasn't helped either. Luckily, my amazing writing wife @theunexpectedness / @notthetwilightyouremember came to save the day and offered to swap gift receivers for the @twilight-secret-gift-exchange . So, @ashlee04 I hope you enjoy this Edward / Bella - wedding themed moodboard!

My gift for @foreverdawning for @twilight-secret-gift-exchange!

These are for vampire!Bella and werewolf!Leah. After Bella turns, she and Leah end up being thrown together at family events, pack get togethers, and just hanging out at the Cullen house when Leah accompanies Jacob. They start out making forced small talk (something neither of them are great at) to keep things civil, but they eventually begin to genuinely enjoy each other’s company. They can comfort each other over the trauma of both of their changes and can help the other view their new selfs in a different light. Bella helps Leah appreciate her new abilities and life, while Leah helps Bella retain her human nature despite having changed.

I hope you like your gift! Happy holidays!

Like a Melted Chocolate

This is for the Twilight Christmas Exchange. This is for @percyiackson!

I am also posting this on AO3.

Leah always treasured the moments when she had her thoughts to herself. Seth and Jacob were known to sleep in soundly on the weekends—ever since the leeches had left years ago, there was no reason to do so many patrols. Leah allowed herself to get lost in the forest and feel the soft earth under her paws. In a few more minutes, she’d have two idiots in her head again but for now she could enjoy the freedom.

Unsurprisingly, Jacob’s thoughts came into Leah’s head.

Looks like you’re enjoying yourself.

Leah tried to ignore him unsuccessfully until a question entered her mind. Seth?

He’s still sleeping. He has that final coming up in a few weeks and I gave him the rest of the month off. I tried giving him the whole semester but he’s stubborn.

Leah made a thought of acknowledgement. She slowed her run to a light jog and transformed back to her human form. She could hear Jacob do the same behind her. Leah crouched down to pick up some clothes she’d stashed before her run.

“Where are you headed?” Jacob called out behind her, already dressed in his signature cut offs. Leah ignored him and finished getting dressed and started walking away. Jacob caught up with her.

Leah sighed. “I’m going to Charlie’s house. He and my mom want us to have Sunday breakfast together. But Seth’s not going to make it.”

Jacob laughed. “Oh, I’m sure you love that!”

Leah tried to smile and kept walking. Jacob kept pace with her. “Must be weird, you and Bella being almost stepsiblings.”

“Not as weird as you’re making it out to be. Aren’t you still in love with her?” Leah jabbed at him.

If Jacob was hurt, he didn’t show it. “As I’ve said a billion times, Bella and I are just friends. What crawled up your butt?”

Leah grunted and stopped in her tracks. “You’re very annoying, you know that?” Leah was suddenly glad Seth wasn’t around for this. It would have been awkward doing this half-joking, half-flirting thing with her little brother around.

“I’m known to be a bit of an annoyance on occasion.” Jacob grinned innocently before running off, “I’ll see you at breakfast!”

“I didn’t invite you!” Leah yelled back and then smiled.

…

Jacob could be the only person in the world that felt comfortable showing up unannounced to the Clearwater-Swan awkward family breakfast.

Charlie answered the door, “Hi Jacob. I didn’t expect to see you here.” His face trailed off to Bella in the kitchen standing next to Leah.

“I invited him,” both Leah and Bella said at the same time. They both pointedly looked away from each other and found the cracks in the linoleum floor much more interesting.

“Okay…” Charlie was not the type to ask questions when things got weird.

Things were already weird enough with the unspoken do-not-speak-about-the-Cullens rule. Leah still remembers Bella’s face when she got unceremoniously dumped by Edweird. Bella and Jacob had become inseparable in those months. But of course, once Bella got her bloodsucker back, it was her turn to dump Jacob. Or whatever it’s called when you dump a friend. But now that the leeches have left Bella for a second time, she’s begun calling Jacob more. And it’s really grating on Leah’s last nerves. Especially now seeing Bella sharing private jokes with him.

“Leah, how has your search for a new job been coming?” Charlie asked.

Charlie had always been pleasant to Leah and decent enough to her mother. She bit back the automatic retort she had and instead managed a somewhat nice response. “I’m still looking. It’s not like the prospects have changed much in six days since you last asked.”

Sue gave Leah a warning glance before patting her napkin against her face. “It’s alright, sweetie. This area’s not exactly crawling with jobs.”

“I recently quit working at the Newtons’ hiking store so they’re hiring,” Bella chimed in. “Since I started this new semester at Washington it’s just too hard for me to balance school and work.”

Leah wanted to punch Bella’s annoying ass face in but managed a quick smile and a considerate hum.

Jacob piped up with his usual annoying charm and directed the attention on himself, much to Leah’s relief.

…

 After dinner, Leah and Bella were cleaning the dishes. Jacob, Charlie, and Sue were laughing loudly in the living room.

Neither girl said anything to the other for a long time until Bella spoke. “You know, if I had to get a sister, I’m glad it was you.”

It took everything in Leah not to roll her eyes. “Why is that? You don’t even know me.”

“Jacob talks about you all the time.”

Leah paused momentarily before collecting herself enough to continue wiping the plate in her hand. “He does?” The softness in her voice was on full display and all the usual snark was gone.

Bella nodded. “In fact, he said you were probably his best friend.”

“No he didn’t.” Leah hated being the butt of a joke.

“I’m serious. He told me this the other night. I think he likes you.”

Leah shot a look at Bella, and Bella blushed and looked back and the plate she was drying. Leah prayed that Jacob was not eavesdropping on this conversation. “Let’s just drop it,” Leah gritted out.

…

Jacob offered to give Leah a ride back to the Clearwater residence. Sue spent most of her nights at the Swans’ anyway, but it was too cramped for Leah. Not that their house was any bigger but there was a very obvious lack of Swans that Leah particularly enjoyed.

Seth was hunched over the dining room table with his textbook propped up against a roll of paper towels.

“Hey Seth.”

Seth didn’t look up. “Hey.”

Leah reached out and ruffled Seth’s hair on her way to the fridge. Jacob stepped through the door.

“Leah, you left your phone.” Jacob held the phone up high above his head almost hitting the popcorn ceiling.

“Thanks.” Leah took the phone from him, and Jacob shifted from side to side. “You know,” she started, “you could hang out for a bit if you wanted.”

Jacob honest-to-goodness blushed, and Leah had to look away. Thankfully, Seth was oblivious to the flirtation going on around him. “I actually was wanting to talk to you.”

Leah’s heart began pounding. “Sure, we can talk in my room.”

Walking the few feet it took to get to her door felt like agony. Leah’s heart felt like it was going to pound out of her chest. Once both of them were in the room, she closed the door.

Jacob took a moment to look around. Leah felt weirdly naked having Jacob looking at her childhood bedroom and preteen posters still hanging on the walls.

“I don’t know how else to say this…” Jacob scratched the back of his head and stared at the ground. “But I like hanging out with you and was wondering if maybe we could hang out just the two of us.”

Leah snorted. “Is that seriously how you were planning on asking me out?”

Jacob looked at her sheepishly. “I didn’t have some grand plan for it. It just kinda sprung to mind.”

Leah rolled her eyes and stepped closer to Jacob. “Yes, I would like to ‘hang out just the two of us’ sometime.”

Jacob grinned and grabbed her hands. “Really?”

“Yes, really.”

Jacob hugged Leah and laughed awkwardly.

Seth shouted from the kitchen, “Finally!”
