Jasper and Alice are my faves and I would love to see more of their characters. But, as in the last book or second to last, Meyer did focus a bit on them and it made me cringe. I just hate that everyone started calling Jasper Jazzy or something like that, and yes my fangirl is showing, but after that they started acting a bit dumb, as I recall.

That and I don't know why Meyer phased those two out of the last book. Egh, it was really hard to read because my faves weren't there. I also agree that it would be awesome if Bella told Edward to stop being creepy and we saw more into the vampire culture and the werewolf culture too. Like, what's the difference between a shapeshifter and a werewolf? I assume there might be werewolfs in her universe; that and her vampires kind of act like fae, so that'd be an interesting take too.

So many good ideas, so much poor effort resulted.

The really sad thing about Twilight is that potential peeks around the corner every once in awhile but no one ever bothered making anything of it. It could've been a story about a fucked-up romance, like some Natural Born Killers kind of thing. It could've been a fantastic horror story centering around Charlie's efforts to save Bella from the vampires. It could have been a series of short stories about each vampire's origins ending up with the formation of the Cullen clan.

It's frustrating that we got what we got in Twilight!

Preach haha.

Yeah, and when Charlie did find out about Jacob, his best friend's son, being a were and the existence of vampires and that Bella was now a vampire (or had a monster baby I can't recall) she just skimmed over it like he was supposed to be cool with it right away. I would have loved to see Charlie recruit Jacob unknowingly to stop the brainwashing the Cullens did to his daughter. It would have been sweet.

I like your idea too, though I'm afraid if she did touch on the secondary characters she might screw them up a lot. =( I didn't read her short story about Bree (Was that her name?) so that might've been good but...who knows. *siiigh*

I pitched the "horror story about Charlie" to some other community at some point. The best thing about that idea is that it would require only minor changes to the story. Shift the narration to Charlie and it's suddenly a horror story about a man losing his only child to the temptation of blood-sucking monsters. He wants her to be safe and successful and happy, but the more she hangs around the vampires, the worse she gets, becoming completely willing to throw away her entire future, her family, her friends, and even her life, just for the sake of some impossibly pretty blood-suckers she's known for, like, a month (but particularly the one with the worst relationship to her). Everyone else in their world encourages it and thinks it's fantastic, and thus no one else tries to prevent her quickly-worsening self-destructive tendencies or doomed relationship. He wants to help her when absolutely no one else in the world will. She started off with potential, but he's seeing his daughter fade away in front of him. He tries to fight against it, but fails in the end, because he doesn't know how to deal with this cult of pretty monsters--only humans and their relatively banal evils--and his only child merrily slips away into a cursed and hopeless future where she will never progress or grow.
