why I love watching the arguably worst movie (and saga) of all time- Twilight
When I was maybe 10 years old (I have a terrible judgment of time/how old I was in past events), my mom was watching TV, well a movie. It was maybe one of the weirdest things I had ever seen, a very pale vampire with contoured abs and a shapeshifting werewolf fighting over a maybe 16-year-old girl who was as Y/N as could be. I quickly picked out all the quick criticisms that can be applied to Twilight.
the weird blue film they put over the movie
the acting (Kristen Stewart's lip bite, hair tuck move was surely something)
the premise of a 100-something vampire trying to stalk a 16-year-old girl
the blandness that was Bella's character development
the creepy possessiveness of both Edward and Jacob
I think that's enough to get the gist of it. All in all, this was a cringy teenage romance movie, and I, who was definitely not like the other girls who would enjoy this cheap film, had no interest in watching it.
Then, I took a complete 180 and binged the whole Twilight saga of novels over 8th (?) grade summer break. I played it much much cooler than what I really thought about the books. I inexplicably (and may I say, irrevocably) fell in love with them. It was stupid, it was basic, but that was the charm. I was a teen after all, so I liked them. This isn't really related to the movie story now that I think about it, but I'll leave it.
Now, back to the movie part. Since I had read the whole series, my mom decided to have me watch the whole saga of movies with her. I got to point out all the points in which the movie strayed from the book, or didn't make much sense. I have to admit, I thought the movies followed the books pretty well. So for hours, my mom and I talked about which of Bella's suitors was hotter (team Edward here), and which was more insane. It was a kind of bonding experience that only the two of us understood, because who else would binge-watch these awful movies.
Today, I sat at home and flipped through TV channels. On FX, none other than Twilight was playing. I turned it on and enjoyed it more than I should have, regardless of the "wtf?" moments (when Edward watches Bella sleep, among other things). I thought about how cool it might be to be a vampire (I mean, you're guaranteed to be rich with endless savings), how cool Alice is, and wow how I want to move to the Pacific Northwest.
My mom joined me in watching Breaking Dawn, and I of course kept myself from smiling or showing any sign of enjoyment- because I hate Twilight.

Hi honey! Idk if requests are open? If yes, I’d like to request something with a handsome character (it can be whoever you want) who loves to work out and play sports and he’s soooo in love with the chubby reader but she’s oblivious to his feelings until he’s jealous cause he thinks the reader has a crush on another guy so he confronts her and asks her what's going on, even tho, they don't have any romantic relationship and they end up making out and something more
Such a yummy idea, i love it 💕
───────────────
Imagine the captain of the football team having a crush on you. You're in a few of his classes and he can't focus on anything but you, the chubby cutie that he always tries to sit next to. He's always so nice to you, trying to win your favor but you think he's just being friendly.
Oh, if only you knew the thoughts he had about you, imagining you in all sorts of ways. He really wants to fuck you standing up, hearing you gasp when he picks you up with ease, holding you against the wall and pounding your pretty pussy until you squirt all over his abs and thighs. He wants to feel your chubby pussy cling to his cock, squeezing him tight, milking him for all he's worth. And then he wants to do it all over again, and again, and again and again until you're completely spent and can't even think.
But he's fine with being friends now, he knows you'll come around. So he carries your books to your next class and invites you to his practices and shows off while he works out just so you'll notice him. He wants all your attention on him so you'll realize that he's perfect for you.
But one day he sees one of his teammates talking to you while you sit on the bleachers, and he's making you laugh and you're touching his arm and it makes his blood boil. How dare another man come up to you and try to steal you away from him? He saw red and stomped up to you, pulling you away to the locker rooms to confront you.
"Why're you talking to Jacob? What's so special about him?"
"Dude, what are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about just now! You were talking and laughing and acting all cute around him. Are you trying to flirt with him? What's he got that I don't?"
"What... what do you mean?"
"I mean, I've been trying to date you for months now and it seems like you're not interested. Am I not smart enough? Am I not funny enough? What do I gotta do to get you to notice me?"
"You... like me?"
"Of course I do! I've liked you since the moment we met! When are you gonna realize how much I want you?"
You're both silent for a bit before he steps closer, backing you into the lockers and leaning in, hesitating right before he locks lips with you. You're both nervous, but you kiss each other nonetheless, lips melding together slowly. You introduce your tongues soon enough, slurping around each other, making you moan into his mouth. His hands move to your waist, going down to your hips to your ass, giving it a squeeze. He pulls your hips towards his and you can feel him getting hard. He pulls away from the kiss, looking down at you with lust blown eyes.
"Do you wanna come over to my place after practice?"
You swallow, your face burning.
"S-Sure, that sounds fine."
He smiled wickedly, and you knew that you'd be in for a long night.

Ayeeee, let's start with a bit of critique, shall we?
(Because I definitely have nothing else to do... nooooo...)
Btw this contains spoilers, I guess
.
The things that I liked:
First of all: I love the actors. They did a really good job. Especially the portrayal of teenagers. In a lot of shows, they look like 25 year-olds, and they act like 25 year-olds, but I really had the feeling of "Yes, these are the 16/17-year-old idiots they're supposed to be".
I also liked the sets. You can see the details in the background and the little nods to their characters.
I love how Lucy can feel what Annie felt while touching the ring, and I love her exploring her powers.
Their. Bodylanguage. Like how George is switching sides and stands next to Lucy when he agrees with her. The "we look at each other like oblivious idiots".
The bonding moments between George and Lucy and George and Lockwood. It shows that he is also important to them even tho he doubts it during the events of the last episodes.
The manipulation from Joplin towards George was on point and her obsession with knowledge.
I loved Kipps (even he had robbed screen time) and the way the showed his insecurities.
I am also invested in the story-line with Norrie. She seemed like a very nice character that could be important later. Especially since they made the coma/ghost-locked thing an important aspect of the show.
The scene in the hospital where Lucy finds all the people in the coma was actually pretty fitting. I really liked the danger the ghosts can have.
And of course his whole team. Kat being an icon, Bobby being the little smart boy he is and Ned also being an active agent.
And the sarcasm was on point.
Things that could've been better:
I kinda miss some scenes that were in the book. Like the scene at the beginning of the second book (I know they didn't have the time or money for it but still). I also missed some scenes to calm down. Like them sitting together after a job and just chatting a bit. I know it's way easier to put that in a book than a show but one or two scenes wouldn't have hurt.
I also miss the ghost in Bickerstaff's house. Like how creepy it actually was and I kinda miss that Kipps' team wasn't there cause it took away their effort to win this bet.
I also think at some points in the show Lucy is a bit out of character. I mean how she actually likes working at Jacob & Co and how and during the scenes with the ghost she... didn't really fight? Cause she is a trained agent and she is talented. And I dislike that she wants the world to know about the skull cause it's more like a secret.
I also think George should've been with them at some points (like Lucy at the DEPRAC headquarters or the ball).
I also missed that Ned was the kind of guy who punches the info out of you.
And of course: the storyline with Annie was way too fast, especially the Combe Carey Hall bit. I also missed the tour and Lockwood's intelligence and Fairfax deep regret of killing Annie. That it was an accident that was made out of jealousy rather than an act of brutality and hate.
Things, where I don't know how to feel:
I'm not sure about the changes with Annie. Especially with the ring. It doesn't make a difference, but it wouldn't have changed anything to stay with the necklace.
What is going on with the skull?? Like I have to know. I hope they didn't "destroy" him.
Winkman being an absolute psycho instead of a business man. I like him as a maniac but I also miss his shop and Lucy and Lockwood's "shopping trip"
What I think overall:
I genuinely liked the show. Of course, they can't make it "perfect" but considering their budget (that we don't know) I think they did the best they could've done.
I really hope for a second season, considering it didn't have that much of a budget and only a few big actors on the show it's possible. Also considering that Netflix renews book adaptations more often than original shows we might have a chance (?)

I’m working on answering the ask you just sent me lol and I might just dump everyone in your inbox as well. To start, Jared? 👀👀 (@gezellig-writes)
YES I WILL STOP EDITING TO ANSWER (thank you, srs)
do I like them:
I didn’t really have an opinion on him throughout the series, then I read the Illustrated Guide and decided I liked him - if only for how he handled the Sam/Emily clusterfuck and REVIVED her after she was hurt. My dude is the same age as Jacob, probably 15y/o at the time, and he handled it like a bloody champ.
5 good qualities:
someone has to be Sam Uley’s best mate I guess lol
he entertains Embry's side bets
seemed a pretty decent Second to Sam before Jacob took over
best vision in the Pack
makes little Kim happy, probably
3 bad qualities:
Everything about that scene in Breaking Dawn when he tried to play peacemaker and said to Jacob that he’d “torn” their family apart after he defected gtfo
Pulled the guilt thing on Seth: “Sue asked me to tell you—no, to beg you—to come home. She’s brokenhearted, Seth. All alone. I don’t know how you and Leah can do this to her. Abandon her this way, when your dad just barely died—”
THEN HE SAID TO MY GIRL, “Sam told me to beg. He told me to literally get down on my knees if I have to. He wants you home, Lee-lee, where you belong.”
NAH
favourite episode/etc:
Favourite scene I can recall is in New Moon at Emily's house. I like to think he wasn't entirely joking when he suggested that Bella could be bait.
otp:
gotta be our Kim surely
brotp:
Jared, probably: If Sam has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Sam has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Sam has only one fan then that is me. If Sam has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Sam, then I am against the world.
ot3:
imprint-addled Jared doesn't share (but there is a fic out there with Jared watching Kim/Seth and even after all these years I'm still not sure how I feel about it, I think it's by audreyii-fic?)
notp:
I've seen a few popular fics with Jared/Bella/Paul but just doesn't float my boat
best quote:
Of course I had to flip through New Moon for this:
"She's just a girl," Embry protested. "I didn't say it made sense. But that's why the bloodsucker's been trying to get past us. She's been heading for Forks." They continued to stare at me, mouths still hanging open, for a long moment. I ducked my head. "Excellent," Jared finally said, a smile beginning to pull up the corners of his mouth. "We've got bait."
head canon:
Saving Emily made them pretty tight. He'll go down swinging for his pack mama any day of the week.

The fashion question back to you! But I want to ask about Indigo and Phoenix. What’s their style? You can include Jacob as well, of course, but if it’d be too much or you don’t have a clear idea for him yet, that’s fine too :)
Also, please, take this question however you wish. You don’t have to make collages or anything – unless you want! Then go for it!
Thank you so much for sending the question back 💖
I didn't have to but, I don't if you ever used it, I spent my early teens on Polyvore day and night making collages and I forgot how fun (and tiring) they are so I made it for each! Polyvore closed years ago, so b4 anyone asks, I did them on Medibang with PNGs from Tumblr.
I focused more on them during Hogwarts years, but I hope to make a post for their fashion as adults.
Indigo's Style
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So this isn't half as much as I really wanted represented here xD due to the confinement of the space and png availability. I made one for her more academia side and one for her colorful self.
As general style rule Indigo will avoid anything tight or that shows too much skin, she wants freedom of movement. I'm sure I didn't convey her witchy vibes enough, nor her 70s influence, but soon I'll make another set.
She also doesn't vibe with blue, pink, nor with black. Yeah, no matter how gloomy she's feeling. But her favourites are red, green and orange brown.
Phoenix's Style
Tumblr media
Here, I suffered with the lack of good male clothing pngs and my laziness xD.
Though I focused on his more yellow and neutral side, Phoenix has a passion for the colorful as well, with inspiration from the preppy fifties, with some boldness from the 60s/70s especially with clothes handed down from his late (biological) father.
Anyway, I think I did convey his very cozy good boy vibes, he's milk and honey, breeze on a hot day type of person.
I had been so long staring at screen doing his, my head began hurting, I had to lay down before moving on to Jacob, reason why his has less stuff than the others. Also I don't think I planned the space right 🙈
Jacob's Style
Tumblr media
His collage is the most chaotic but that's pretty resonant with his character, not as much red as I'd like for him nor as punk as his style really is.
You right, I still have very little on my Jacob, but searching trinkets and clothes I actually got inspired x). Anyway, I like to think there's a before and after the vault Jacob in matter of style, I'll say more below, but can get experimental with his style, despite his laziness to put any effort into it.
And I'll talk under the cut just to avoid being huge x)
I don't think I can't explain Indigo's style as whole all at once so I'll divide by her Hogwarts years.
1st
Indigo is trying to drive her image away from Jacob, better yet, her mother is doing it for her, the colors are toned down and very basic, but it's inevitable the resemblance. She spends most of her time in complete or half uniform.
2nd
Now determined to explore the vaults, she invites the 'Jacobness' in, she's purposefully looking for him not just literally but figuratively. She's wearing jackets and shirts he left behind even if they definitely don't fit her right yet. She's got a classic colorful 80s girl style out of class and isn't afraid to call attention to herself. A time to be experimental with her hairdos.
3rd
Starting to develop her own style while being influenced by Rowan, trying to mix her new nerdy side with remnants of her brother.
The year she slowly starts growing, she has her first period, she gains weight, she's well, confused in herself. The colors are a tad toned down in comparison to the previous year. Tho, as the year progresses, since the current curse has to do with fear, she subconsciously seeks in her fashion saturated, happier and bolder colors.
But when she joins the gryffindor quidditch team, it enforces that red, burgundy color palette.
4th
Despite the exercising and duelling training, she continues to gain weight due to stress eating. Lucky for her, she continues getting taller which helps hide some of the weight gain, but her ever changing body does influence in the types of clothes she picks.
Since Rakepick is around now, she wants to be defiant - strong colors, oversized shapes, leather details and footwear, bringing back those Jacob clothes she had.
Also with the start of her friendship with Barnaby and with more of Aspen's influence, she begins wearing more and more plaid patterns to represent her Scottishness.
Another year of fun hairdos, especially considering her approximation to Tonks.
5th
As Rakepick's apprentice she's more and more inclined to dress with confidence.
She's dating Barney and he influences her fashion / As well as spending more time with Rakepick - she adopts the habit of wearing jewelry, a belt for her utilities, a lot more red and green, she begins putting her hair in place.
In the matter of hair, here is where it becomes like I usually draw (or try to), with hormones flourishing as well as her Legilimency, her hair has a growth spurt and becomes very thick and voluminous.
On opposite route to the previous year, she's stress starving, due to pressure because of the Curse and working in kitchens makes her lose her appetite. Therefore she's colder than usual, fluffy coats and a brown leather jacket and a tartan wrap Barnaby gifted her become ever so present in her daily wardrobe.
She's wearing saturated colors but also lots of brown, she associates the color to maturity and is how she wants to appear to her friends and, especially, to Rakepick. Red also becomes prevalent with the feelings of love.
For the first time she's putting actual effort into looking pretty for a boy.
6th
In here Barns has broken up with her for seemingly no reason and this takes a tool on her fashion for most of the year. She's not putting effort at all, dark colors patternless mourning the loss of her relationship as well as the departure of both Rakepick who she was beginning to grown fond of, as well as Jacob.
But with Jacob back around after a while, it's his style she's back at mirroring, tho most clothes she and Phoenix had borrowed had to be returned, she still keeps many he doesn't want anymore or that don't fit his new weight.
Then later, Achilles, whose fashion is similar to Jacob's but closer to what the 90s will bring with a renewed side of punk. She's also trying to make Barnaby jealous with Achilles so a bit more revealing clothes, blacks and strong greens - which doesn't last long since Achilles himself tells her how this isn't her.
Even then, she's not certain who she is.
7th
I'm not sure what will happen this year cause I don't feel like following canon and I've got so many ideas.
But it's a confusing year to her, while things have an air of settling down, the future feels unsettling. While she takes hold of her Legilimency, her self confidence doesn't follow. She's not sure of herself or her purpose and it reflects in her fashion.
Except, this is the year of true reconciliation with Rowan which brings her back those times of their third year, resurfacing with her nerdy academia side, this time with accents of leather and darker colors.
7.1
Yes, she stays another year cause she fails her NEWTS spectacularly.
The year of nostalgia with the golden trio coming along, therefore vintage, 'childish' patterns and styles, also trying to blend into the background because she really doesn't want to be there.
Preference for brown and burgundy, mostly trousers instead of skirts, hats and beanies more often used. And plaid, lots of it.
Phoenix
Phoenix never worried about fashion, he wears what mom buys and that's good. He also grew up with Jacob's hand-me-downs as part of his wardrobe ever since he was a baby, consequently paralleling his brother's style, not to mention always being a few years outdated in relation to the other kids.
But even after Hogwarts, his best friend is Rowen, not popularly known for being a fashion king himself.
Even with growing older, Phoenix is a Veela, naturally beautiful and charming so he often relies on that more than style - even though, sometimes, not even his pretty face can help his dweeb fashion.
What I wasn't able to add to the collage was Ismelda's influence on his style. Not only he has the boldness of dying a strand of his hair turquoise, he begins wearing black!!! Mostly stuff that used to belong to Jacob, but it does start seeping into his fashion slowly the longer he stays with her, though without ever losing his soft essence.
Jacob
Considering Jacob was a teen during the late 70s, he got caught in the beginning of the punk movement, taking inspiration from Vivienne Westwood, Sex Pistols, Blondie, Bowie, and well whatever media he could access at the time.
But also the classics, bell bottoms, weird patterns, bright colors along with plaids, and very funky hair.
After the vault, he loses the body he had along with his confidence, he used to be stocky and reasonably tall, but now he's skinny, cold, and feeling very unsexy. He's opting for dark colors, uninspired combinations, beanies and gloves. Though he doesn't realize straight away, he does use a wrap around his shoulders much like Rakepick does.
Also, even though he's not very sporty, he like sportswear, jerseys, baseball caps, and cool basketball sneakers.

"You look like you'd be fun to tickle"
AHHHHHHHH! CORY NO! That's not how you make conversation!!! lmfao😂😂
Also I read breaking dawn and I myself was definitely irritated by Jacob's perspective, to be fair I was Team Edward always when it came to the books I mean there is no other real option especially in New Moon where we clearly see from Bella's perspective her stance on her relationship with Jake. The movie New Moon though I think the director tried to allude that there could of been something between her and Jake eventually. Which is think is what intrigues me the most, you know? The what if?
Tv show I could watch over and over would probably be Game of Thrones or Stranger Things and movie is without a doubt Dirty Dancing and The Outsiders.
I do believe in ghosts definitely, I don't think I've had an experience personally besides THINKING that I've seen shadows and not really knowing if it was but my mom had an experience when I was little that freaked her out pretty bad. Growing up my grandma lived with us and her room was right next to mine and our beds were against the same wall. At night I would knock on the wall and she would knock back and call out my name and one night my mom woke up to her knocking and calling out "Holly!" So naturally my mom got up to tell me to go to bed but I was asleep so my mom went to tell my grandma to leave me alone and not wake me up.....she was asleep. My mom said she ran back to the couch and hid under the covers.
And best compliment I've ever gotten was that I'm very well-spoken and that I'm really in touch with myself. Sounds dumb I know but it means a lot on days when I feel like the dumbest person on the planet lol 😆
Greatest accomplishment? Are you religious? Cats or dogs?
yeah lol to this day i still think about that "experience", if you will.
i think that was the thing in the books is that at least from my memory, bella never wanted jacob. like she cared about him, of course, but she didn't love him the way she loved edward. so when the movies came out and they were trying to do this weird love triangle i'm like... that's not correct.
oh interesting choices. i've never seen game of thrones and only watched the first episode lol but i love stranger things ! dirty dancing is fun and i don't think i've seen the outsiders before.
i think i would pick the first two seasons of skins, and for a movie i would have to go with a cinderella story. there's a reason it's one of my favorites haha
omg that's terrifying! i've had a bunch of different paranormal experiences and my mom believes in this kind of stuff too. my dad and brother never believed. my brother still doesn't, but he has had some weird experiences that kinda make him question.
and no, that's a great compliment ! right before my dad died he told me that i was a really great writer, just based off of the papers i used to write in college and honestly i still think about it.
not to get too dark on you, but i think my greatest accomplishment is continuing to live past the two times i've tried to end my own life. even tho i still struggle with my mental health the fact that i continue to find the will to live is i think the biggest accomplishment i've made.
idk if i'm religious, but i would say i'm spiritual. i believe in a higher power, but i don't know if it's God, or like the cosmos or something otherly that i couldn't comprehend. but i do also believe in an afterlife that would be kinda similar to heaven, but not quite. i think my idea of religion is a bit all over the place to be one specific religion, if that makes sense.
and i'm gonna go with dogs, since i've had dogs all my life. i do like cats tho, but dogs are my favorite.
i feel like i'm starting to run out of question lol but here's some more: if you could have any animal as a pet, what would you have?, if you're going to the movies, what food are you getting?, what is the worst food you ever tried?
