✨️A JASPER X OC FIC✨️
A Cowboy's Dream
Character info:
Name: Eliana (el-e-anna) Smith
Nicknames: Eli (El-e), Ana, Silly, Star Girl
Insults: Accident, Freak, Weirdo, r-slur
Age: 17
Birthday: April 6th
Blood type: O-
Mental illness/disorder: Autism
Sexuality: Omnisexual
Gender: Female she/her
Backstory: Eliana was born in with a semi-normal family. She had a father, Michael, and a mother, Terra. When Eli had turned about 6 months old when Michael realized he was gay and wanted a divorce. Terra went along with it, as she was a closeted lesbian. She couldn't stand being in a marriage with a man, so once the divorce was finalized, Michael and Terra stayed friends but went to live on their lives. Terra kept Eliana, as Michael wasn't sure that traveling in a van would be safe for a 6 month old, and met her later wife -Vanessa- when Ana was 3. They got married on Eli's birthday, with her permission of course, and have given Eliana the world and more that a girl could ask for while living in Forks, Washington. Michael comes to visit Eliana for special days just whenever she wants to see him because Terra and Vanessa decided that it'd be good for her to have connection to her father, despite calling him "Uncle Mike." Eliana was diagnosed with autism at 7 years old after she had a meltdown about having to sleep on silk sheets in a hotel that the 3 women were staying at for a trip.
She's lived in Forks her entire life and doesn't mind the quietness or rain because at night, when the rain clears, she see the stars and often draws pictures out whatever shape(s) she sees in them.
START NOTE: IM AUTISTIC AND CAN RECLAIM THE R SLUR. I WILL AVOID USING IT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE SO IT MAY ONLY POP UP 1 OR 2 TIMES. If people are uncomfortable, I'll remove the slur from the story entirely <3
First Meeting
"Do I not look Italian-?" Eli asked, laughing as Mike was in shock learning the autistic member of the group was Italian.
"No, you look white-!! Like, white white." Mike protested as Eliana walked with Bella to her truck.
"Bye bye, Mikey~!" She called as Bella shook her head and ruffled Eliana's dual colored hair.
"So, I'm guessing you and Mikey are close?" Bella questioned as Eliana moved closer to her to avoid bumping into the Cullens.
"Eehhhh, if you wanna call teasing each other like siblings close because you're both only children then yes...? Besides, we grew up neighbors, so we see each other every day and let me tell you- being surrounded by loud neurotypicals hurts like hell."
"Really?" Bella looked up at Eliana as the smaller female sat on the hood of the car. "I thought they were ok- a bit better than the people back in Arizona."
"Ehhh, depends on the person. Since I'm autistic, and I don't speak for every autistic person, I have sensory issues meaning I can't handle super loud crowds or friend groups. But they were my only friends, so I sucked it up as best as I could and dealt with it. You, however, aren't autistic and don't really mix with the loud crowd and tend to avoid them as much as possible," Eliana explained pulling a marker out of her patch-filled messenger bag and started to draw stars along her left arm.
"Oh.. that makes sense, yeah," Bella replied after a moment, watching Eliana draw on herself. Throughout the day, Bella noted that Eli would do this whenever a certain blonde was around. According to Jessica, Eliana has had a thing for one of the mysterious Cullens- Jasper. Yet, he was seemingly taken by Alice. It hurt Eliana, so she took to drawing on herself to avoiding staring at him and causing drama.
Yet, every so often, Jasper would catch himself staring at her and he looked away, attempting, and failing, to not be caught.
The reason why the pair did this was because Jasper saved her life exactly 3 years ago today.
"Are you serious dude? The Freak?" A student inquired, laughing his ass off as Eli walked passed, clutching her books and not noticing the 5 squares of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of her shirt.
"Yeah! I mean, besides, it's not like anyone's going to stand up for the retard and won't it be awesome to humiliate it in front of the whole school?" The student's friend spoke up, grinning and seeing Eliana walk to class faster to avoid being seen crying out of distress.
Later that day, Eli had forgotten all about the worry of being humiliated. She felt safe and at peace. Besides, she had gotten to talk to one of her more mysterious classmates, Rosalie, today and she promised to help Eli get a good hair-do that would make her feel happy.
Life felt perfect and completely worry-free... until one of her bullies kicked her in the back and caused her to trip down the stairs of the building and fall into the wet pavement.
She groaned, rolling onto her side and hugging her ribs as blood ran down her face from her nose and her head spun in dizziness. She was in so much pain that she didn't process a car come barreling down to her until she heard a large crash and a familiar voice yell.
Two sets of hands pulled her up, eliciting a cry of pain from the younger as pressure was put onto her right foot. One of the 'strangers' whom had helped her up, scooped her up bridal style as she began to fall in and out of consciousness.
After a few hours had gone by, Eliana woke up, groaning.
"Ah, I see you're awake, Eliana. You gave us a scare there," a gentle and friendly voice said earning a tiny smile from the teen.
"Hi, Dr. Carlisle..." She groaned out, putting a hand to her head and flinching in the process.
"Hi, dear," he greeted, sympathetically and gently running his hand through her long bright blonde hair. The doctor cared deeply for her and she loved him like he was her dad. "Can you tell me what happened this time?"
"I- uhmmm... I don't think I remember a lot of it..." She told him, honestly and shrugging a tad. Carlisle merely smiled reassuringly.
"It's alright, you don't have to try and remember all of it now, but would you be able to give me a gist of what happened?" He questioned, sitting in one of the rolly stools while checking her heartbeat.
"Uhmm... I think I tripped down the stairs... and then hit my head really hard, but I don't remember anything after that," She told him, trying to focus on the light he was using to check her eyes.
"You tripped? Eli... these injuries don't typically come from tripping down the stairs- accident prone or not," Carlisle started, looking at her and she moved her gaze to her hands. "Are you sure someone didn't kick you down the stairs or anything?"
Eliana tensed and stayed quiet. She didn't want the senior to get in trouble, but her silence did confirm that someone did kick her down the stairs.
"Eli..? Come on, you can't stay quiet for this, honey. Jasper and Rosalie already told Chief Swan everything that they know and he's waiting to talk to you downstairs, as he's wanting to know if your mothers will press charges against whomever hurt you and, apparently, tried to run you over."
"He's gonna kill me if I say anything though..." Eli buried her face into her knee that she could move and groaned audibly.
"But he also could be behind bars. Freedom from him, Eliana, wouldn't that be nice?" Ana paused for a moment and nodded a bit, earning a kind smile from Carlisle.
However, before Carlisle could continue, one of the Cullens entered the room with Eliana's stuff. This one must've been Jasper, due to the fancy shirt he wore and his wavy/curly blonde locks were pushed out of his face that as Rosalie had described.
"Ah, Jasper, here with Eliana's things. Thank you, son," He said as Jasper sat her bag by her shoes and nodded, then went to leave, not making eye contact with either.
"Hey, Jasper-?.. uhm... Thanks.. to you and the other person who helped," Eliana called. Jasper had froze at the door when she called his name. He'd never heard it said so... kindly and softly before. There was no sound of reassurance or manipulation behind it- just pure gratitude and the blonde could sense that from her, even without his power.
Partially turning to face her, he smiled at her kindly.
"You're welcome, ma'am. I'm just glad to see you're not bleedin too bad," He said to her, with his Southern accent coming out before leaving the room. This left Carlisle chuckling softly at his son for sneaking in a thank-you to her for not causing him to go feral and Eliana completely in love with him.

Welcome to The Pass!
That is the name of the new novel I had the pleasure of Co-Authoring with long time friend and school mate, Allan Krummenacker. Together we managed to create a different type of supernatural novel. Well, rather than me trying to explain it, why don't you read what Kirkus Reviews has to say!
Find it at Amazon and see for yourself!

hot take but we as a society need to be more comfortable about discussing "icky" parts of history, and even telling the side of the "bad guys"
hear me out
history is written by the victors, and will be heavily biased. The defeated will be painted as evil, deviants and/or like they have always been "the bad guys".
Reducing people to "the bad guys" does a huge disservice to the opportunity of learning from the past, because it creates a distance between the modern reader and the actual events, it creates the comfortable position of "I'm not like the bad guys, so i will never make their mistakes"
I think is important we understand how and why people believed in something, and where did things turn a certain way. Yes. Even "the wrong side". Even the nazis. Even those people you are thinking about, whoever they are.
Because you are not immune to propaganda and it's so so so so important to understand what happened and how did we get to those points before we fall to the same techniques again and again.
"Learning from the past" isn't deleting the ugly parts or cringing when someone brings up war. Thinking otherwise is a huge mistake and precisely what someone who wants to make the same mistakes wants you to think.
#rant#gil talks#not to get too real on main#but this comes from watching a funny haha video about vampire diaries#and the essayist wanted to discuss how the series treated certain parts of US history and sure it was bad#and i agreed with a lot of points#but the whole 'this character was a confederate soldier and eughhhh' cringing hard#honestly i would focus more on the wasted opportunity of discussing the guilt of fighting for the wrong side than eughh they portrayed this#idk man people sometimes chooses the wrong side?#same with twilight#which btw jasper acknowledges is was bad and he was young and impressionable and just wanted to be a soldier#still fandom is like OMG STEPHENIE MEYER HOW COULD YOU#bruh#yes. even your blorbos can be in 'the wrong side' and they are not evil incarnate

"The House voted on Friday to expel Republican Rep. George Santos of New York after a critical ethics report on his conduct that accused him of converting campaign donations for his own use. He was just the sixth member in the chamber’s history to be ousted by colleagues."

Those Twilight fans trying to justify SMeyer decision to make one of her main characters a confederate:
#he could have been a union soldier#or just a cowboy#he didn't HAD to be a confederate just because he was white in the middle of the civil war#and no it doesn't make sense for his character his story with maria could've been the exact same#jasper hale#jasper whitlock hale#jasper whitlock#the twilight saga#twilight eclipse#twilight saga#jasper cullen#twilight renaissance#effervescent#and no his confederate past isn't written as in he made a mistake or something#no one bats an eye at that little thing about him#no one cares its supposed to be another thing for the reader to sympathize with Jasper#he's proud about it he just regrets the things he did when he was with Maria#and there was texan men on the union side!#“he's white and texan it makes sense” no it doesn't!

honestly if the George Floyd joke the Bates made at a FAMILY gathering wasn't the nail in the Bates Family coffin for you, i have some serious questions. i feel like we don't talk enough about how heinous that was.
like being able to find humor in the slow death of a man who wasn't doing anything to anyone, who was a son and a father, is pretty fucking bone chilling and it's weird to me that so many people (reddit) just kinda write that off
#like are we forgetting the framed confederate soldiers also? not even relatives to the Bates but people who committed insane crimes against#humanity? like how do the cute baby pics make up for all of that??#the Bates family#what do you tell yourself to still be able to be a fan

SoCal gothic is like missions haunted by the ghosts of genocide, crumbling eastside graves full of dirty men like Doheny and Mulholland, rotting Victorians in redlined neighborhoods, & studio backlots that abut mausoleums where the sound of old films play in the ghostly night. Development deals cut with USC on the site of destroyed native villages, patriotic monuments on the site of forts + battlefields where Californios were slaughtered by American conquerors, Edwardian public schools filled with asbestos where the lights turn on by themselves.
#California history#los angeles#usc#visited Savannah Pioneer Cemetery today and was inspired by the white narrative it upheld#San Gabriel Mission is down the street#The cemetery holds 49ers and colonisers (oops I meant pioneers) confederate Mexican-American and “Indian” war soldiers 🤢#The man who captured Tiburcio Vasquez Japanese immigrants from the turn of the century and a single dog#California gothic#Los Angeles gothic

#anyway truly needed to share this and I WISH IT WERE A JOKE#but it really isn't#feels a bit in line with the same Type of oc being idk a confederate soldier/iberic conquistador#hating poor people is also bad woaw#an's ramblings#anyway organize. mobilize. politicize.

if the vampire diaries aired today everytime they mentioned the founding families they'd also do a land acknowledgement and nothing else would change
#avd speaks#tvd lb#the salvatores would still be confederate soldiers but someone would make a witty whedon esque comment about it
