When did emmett start calling Esme and Carlisle “ma” and “pa/pops” like did he ask them first or did it just happen and what did carlesme do
I swear I've got so many headcanons and thoughts on Cullen family dynamics like you have no idea, i could go on for hours and I’m about to thank you so much @ellrond/@carllisle I love you for this
so with Emmett, he came from a huge family. lots of brothers and sisters, he was like the oldest so he felt very protective of all his family and loved them all so much. I always imagine that he came from quite a poor family but his parents were hardworking and living people and did everything they could to make sure their family had enough. also, despite their 10+ kids they were truly in love with each other. like they married for love and that's it. they might not have a lot but they have each other and that's enough. and Emmett always really admired that, like he might have messed around a lot but he adored their relationship and hoped that he'd find something like that for himself one day.
when Emmett was turned by Carlisle, he was elated. like, it was the coolest thing to him. super strength, super speed, and hey! not dead!
but after a while he hit a slump and he started to remember his family and his parents and the fact that they didn't know what had happened to him and that he'd never see them again. (which is when Carlisle stepped in and offered to give his family an anonymous donation)
what helped Emmett move on through was when he started to get to know his new family and began to see his family in them. he was still able to act as a protector for his family and parents thanks to his new strength. the large, kind of chaotic, loud atmosphere of his new vampire family made him feel completely at home. Edward and Rosalie's bickering reminded him of his younger siblings. watching Carlisle and Esme and seeing their love for each other and their 'kids' was the cherry on top. it was impossible not to see his parents in them.
Esme had his mother's endless warmth but also had her fierceness too, and Carlisle, just like Emmett's father, would do anything for his children just to make them happy, no matter how exasperated and frazzled they made him.
Emmett calling them Ma/Pops originated when he was ready to start going to school. It was one of the first times they were doing the ‘we’ll act as your adopted parents’ routine. In public, he had started referring to Carlisle and Esme as his Ma/Pops, but never to their faces. He slipped up with Esme first, after she chastised him for coming into the house filthy after a hunt telling him to clean up the mess, and he probably just responded like ‘sorry ma!’ or something, then got really bashful when he realised and went to apologise but stopped when he saw the smile on her face and the tearful look as she threw a mop towards him.
When he slipped and called Carlisle ‘pops’ he was a lot more nervous. He really looks up to Carlisle, and respects him a lot. he was out hunting with Edward and Carlisle, joking about when he replied to Carlisle with something along the lines of ‘oh yeah sure pops’ and then like, silence. Edward kinda tapped out and Carlisle didn't say anything out of shock and cause he's awful with emotions when its not Esme so the rest of the hunting trip was utterly silent and awkward until they were heading home, Carlisle pulled Emmett aside to talk and Emmett immediately launched into an apology like
‘look Carlisle I’m sorry, I just really look up to you, y’know?, and you remind me so much of my old man but if its weird for you I wont-’
‘Emmett. It’s fine’
‘huh?’
‘you are a part of this family Emmett. and I am proud to call you my son’
and then emmett 100% launched on him, proper bear hug style and almost broke bones.
Honestly, I’m utterly in love with cullen family dynamics so please send me more like this cause i have so many thoughts

Padme and Luke for the meme!
oof this is going to be a long post lol
PADME
favorite thing about them ➺ she is strong willed. she doesnt take shit from anyone, not even her husband.
least favorite thing about them ➺ she is sometimes blind-sighted by her privilege, i think its a big reason why there is a lot of miscommunication and lack of communication between her and anakin
favorite line ➺ "To those who act as agents of chaos, I say this: I stand resolute and unyielding. And if you strike my voice down, know that a chorus of thousands shall rise up in its place, for you have no dominion over the righteous. We are the defenders of truth." 
brOTP ➺ Padme/Bail
OTP ➺ Anidala, Padme/Sabe, also i find Obidala interesting
nOTP ➺ Padme/Clovis
random headcanon ➺ padme is a terrible dancer. idk why i have this opinion i just feel it in my bones fhfhdjhdjd
unpopular opinion ➺ the headpiece of her wedding dress doesnt look good with the rest of the dress and ruins the outfit
song i associate with them ➺ idle worship by paramore, boss bitch by doja cat
favorite picture of them ➺
Tumblr media
LUKE
favorite thing about them ➺ luke always tries to see the good in people, always tries to help, always tries to give people a chance to be better (e.g. Aphra in Screaming Citidel)
least favorite thing about them ➺ if we take the sequels as canon, the fact that he would attack rey/break the hut for touching hands or just the fact that he would allow fear of failure to cause him to close himself off to the force or the fact that he left leia and han instead of seeking help from them when all went to shit
favorite line ➺ “I am a Jedi, like my father before me.” 
brOTP ➺ Luke/Aphra, Skyrissian, Luke/R2
OTP ➺ Skysolo, Skybridger
nOTP ➺ Luke/Leia (romantic)
random headcanon ➺ sometimes he just really misses tatooine life of having so much open space to just race a speeder or ship and have near-death experiences when getting too close to ridges; aka being a thrill seeker like his father before him 
unpopular opinion ➺ not sure if this is unpopular but he is the best of the og trio; the best person among the three and the best well-rounded character
song i associate with them ➺ in the summertime by thirsty merc (the acoustic version, this is mainly ANH luke and his farmer vibes lmao)

Pink Pearl and Amethyst :>
send me a character and i’ll list the following
(I’ll do Pink Pearl in this post and Amethyst in her own post so it doesn’t get too long.)
Pink Pearl / Volleyball
Favorite thing about them
Wow she’s cute. I would die for every Pearl! There’s some potentially complex factors driving her characterization which I’m into.
Least favorite thing about them
The show had no reason to give her more screen time but also if there was a spinoff that was just about pearls I’d watch it in a heartbeat. Not enough her. I want more her.
Favorite line
Her insisting she’s fine as her face cracks more for Big Irony is up there, but I also really loved the initial exchange between her and Pearl about 
Well, I was her pearl o:^)
SO WAS I !!! :^)
I love your energy, it reminds me of when I was younger. o:^)))))))) 
I’m older than you :^)))))))))))))))
Something about this conversation really fits with the headcanons I have about pearls and their own culture being steeped in this enormous sense of subtlety and passivity and tbh I would pay anybody cash-money to ask me frequently and at length about my extensive lore for pearls as a gem subspecies.
BROTP
I’d honestly like to see her become friendly with Bismuth or some of the amethysts. Idk if that’s weird, but I think by nature she is a very playful gem and would benefit from knowing gems who encourage those traits even though pearls are socialized away from behavior like that. I also think she’s friendly with the other pearls. They’re a little bird clique.
OTP
Her and CG Pearl I guess. We ship volleypearl in this house. Seeing both of their character arcs get a nice resolution that handles the topic of Rose with a level of nuance was cathartic for me. But also like, whatever, all the gems may as well be poly in my mind, they can all kiss, it’s fine.
NOTP
I’ll be real with you idk what bad choices the fandom is making with her but if I find one I’ll tell you about it.
Random headcanon
Pink Pearl is an honest to god agent of chaos in her purest form. She is a gem who under ideal circumstances isn’t afraid to say what she means and to start shit. She really loves playing and practical joking and the only reason that isn’t immediately apparent is because she’s spent her life being a pearl first and an individual second.
Unpopular opinion
I have a hard time characterizing her as this delicate flower who has never done anything wrong and whose single identity in life is victim even though i occasionally see her characterization distilled down to that in fanon content. Obviously every pearl is different and everybody is welcome to their interpretation, but I honestly expect it’s fairly common that a lot of pearls bottle up their emotions due to how they've been socialized.  I’ve honestly always imagined Pink Pearl as a gem with a lot of nerve and whose emotional health has been so poorly managed prior to the present day that often difficult feelings come out unexpectedly and in ways that put others off.  I think Pink Pearl has a lot of very ugly emotions that she isn’t proud and I think when those emotions spill out it’s often very sudden and sometimes very messy. She has outburts, to parallel some existing language in the fandom. It doesn’t make her a bad person or an abuser, but sometimes it makes her hard to be around.  The process of healing is like that sometimes.
Song I associate with them
I found a song while stumbling around JP Youtube recently called Soshite Hana Ni Naru and for whatever reason this song has instantly become a Pink Pearl song for me??? I can’t give the clearest translation of what the song is about bc after years of studying Japanese I still basically suck but the impression I get from the parts I do understand is that the singer is struggling over the memories of a past relationship. She is moving past this thing that caused her pain even if she might have some nostalgia for a time when her life and worldview was simpler.
But uhh part of the reason I associate it so much with Pink Pearl is because of the stuff I said above about Pink Pearl really bottling up her emotions and setting aside her needs and having those things come out in ways that are a little less dignified than what you’d expect of a pearl. The vocalist for this song, Kaf has a very delicate high pitch to her voice but I really like how raw some of her songs get. Specifically the ones that sound a little less produced. There’s something that feels very Pink Pearl to me in the way this artists sings when the content is reaching its emotional peak.  In some of the more powerful parts of a track it can sometimes sound like her voice is becoming shrill and might break because of how she’s pushing it. I think there’s something really beautiful about singing that gives the impression of being raw, sincere, or unfiltered and it suits the way I think of Pink Pearl handling her grief and her frustration. It represents a process that has a lot of value but can be deeply painful and doesn’t necessarily look conventionally pretty.
Favorite picture of them
Rebecca sugar has this extremely sweet picture of her on her Instagram that I love
