What if Rosalie got a physical shield gift, like Renata?

( this is because of the trauma before her transformation)

Would she be uncomfortable about her gift and what it represents? Would Edward be jealous of Rosalie having a gift? How would this change the newborn battle in Eclipse? What about Bella's pregnancy and the confrontation in Breaking dawn? What will Bella think of Rosalie being both beautiful and strong? Will Aro consider the Cullens a bigger threat?

Would She Be Uncomfortable About Her Gift and What it Represents?

The thing about Renata's gift is a lot of what @therealvinelle and I theorize we headcanoned our way/theorized our way into.

It's a "hm, wonder why she had this gift" when we look at other vampires who have gifts that help them in situations before or after they were turned versus random gifts.

It's not necessarily something she would theorize or anyone else would either. Edward theorizes that gifts are an extension of yourself/talents you had in life.

Edward reads minds because he's super ultra perceptive like that, Jasper must have been charismatic, Carlisle is now a saint because his goodness was magnified by 10,000 degrees, Alice could see the future as a human if to a lesser degree, Rosalie is hot er pigheaded, and so on.

Edward wouldn't see a physical shield as a response to trauma/a gift clearly designed to protect her from physical harm, Rosalie must have had some sort of underlying shield talent. Clearly, Rosalie pushes other people away and nobody likes her.

Rosalie might wish she had such a gift with Royce, that this could have protected her if it hadn't been this latent stupid talent, but she may not realize she has it because of Royce (I doubt she would both because she wouldn't want to credit him/what happened and because it's not the prevalent vampire thoughts on gifts).

Would Edward Be Jealous?

No, because his gift is cooler.

The thing about Edward is because all these gifts are different he can convince himself he's the best or at least on par. Alice's gift is powerful, but Edward can read thoughts while she reads the future, so they work in tandem. Jasper's is useful sometimes, but he can only figure out emotions and he's influenced by them while Edward can hear thoughts.

We're talking about the boy who fucking convinces himself he's more powerful than Aro because he can hear only immediate thoughts within a ten-mile radius (if he knows them well, shorter if he doesn't) while Aro has to touch your hand but gets every thought you've ever had in your lifetime.

He fucking convinces himself he's more powerful than Bella, that she doesn't have a gift at all and just thinks weird, when Bella singlehandedly stops the Volturi's greatest gifts in their tracks multiple times right in front of him.

The best Bella gets is from Eleazar of "wow, you're a shield".

Rosalie just makes a stupid physical shield. Edward would regard this as entirely useless and a party trick.

Unlike Edward's totally useful gift.

How Would This Change the Newborn Battle?

... Funny you say that.

Guess who's in the tent with Bella and Edward and Jacob? There is no world in which Edward doesn't throw the mother of bitch fits to have Rosalie there protecting Bella with her shield. He hates it, of course, he'd much rather do it himself, but Bella's life is at stake and nothing will get through Rosalie's shield.

Rosalie's going to the tent (Rosalie doesn't want to go either, at all, but if this keeps Bella human and Edward not killing himself :( )

Somehow, I'm sure that tent conversation still happens, even though Rosalie's sitting in the corner, hating them all, hating everything, and "Bella, do you know what these two are like???"

"Edward is the love of my life and Jacob is my sun"

(Rosalie concludes Bella's cheating on Edward and Edward, Jacob, and Bella all know it. That or they're having a weird gross threesome thing and why does she know about this?)

What Will Bella Think of Rosalie Being Beautiful and Strong?

Nothing.

Edward insists to Bella, as he did in canon, that Rosalie is a stupid, vain, shrew who only cares about herself and is the worst in every way. Even her gift is stupid and look how hard Rosalie tries not to use it even though this is the one time it's actually useful.

All Rosalie has to do is guard Bella and she keeps trying to wriggle out of it.

And Rosalie hates Bella because she's jelly Edward's into her.

As in canon, Bella thinks Rosalie hates her, and is very intimidated by how beautiful she is, and that she's gifted period when all Bella can do is think in FM instead of AM.

Will Aro Consider the Cullens a Bigger Threat?

No.

One more Renata's in Rosalie's not ideal, but he could have taken her out with Jane and Alec easily. It's not the end of the world if he would have had to fight them.

Bella's the deal breaker where Bella alone concerns him and Bella with Rosalie concerns him only slightly more than Bella alone (makes it hard to kill Bella and stop her shield if the Cullens are being strategic, but this isn't much different than canon where gifts on Bella's team do work and they can protect her in a way the Volturi will have difficulty getting through if it comes to a fight).

I know you and the muffin are still in the middle of writing fics with these characters and so i might be asking for spoilers. In that case feel free to tell me to sit down and be patient, but I must ask:

Do you see any way for a relationship between Tom and Alphard to work long time?

What got me wondering was the latest chapter of The Man Who Would Be King when Alphard thought about how he might have chosen similar to Andromeda if things had been different for Tom and him.

And I don't think they would make it either way, however much I want them to.

In canon adjacent timelines they could have left Britain together but Alphard's strength is to never really pick a side and get by that way and I'm not sure he could actually leave his family behind.

And in female!Alphard timelines I think the fact that there's now options besides Tom would result in him (or rather her) being able to eventually get over him or at least pick a more acceptable man and suffer in silence forever.

So yeah, are they doomed in all universes or could they make it?

This is an interesting question, because it depends on what we mean by working (and on what we mean by spoilers).

The thing about Alphard and Tom's relationship, as depicted in our fics, is that we haven't actually gotten into why it happened, nor how strong their feelings are. What made Alphard interested to begin with, why is he still carrying that torch, how did Tom get sucked in. We haven't really shown their problems either, only hinted at them.

I will say: it's not in mine and @theoriginalcarnivorousmuffin's nature to write uncomplicated pairings, to have relationships without problems. Aro/Carlisle being a great example, they always get together in our fics (Blue Moon and The Invitation excepted) and by all accounts are capable of being very happy together, but they have significant differences that go unresolved (namely, that Aro kills people every other week for sustenance, while Carlisle is on the animal diet).

It wouldn't be interesting to write a ship that has no problems, where there aren't valid reasons they shouldn't be together, and Alphalord certainly have both. As for them working in the long term, yes I do see it (though not saying either way as for whether that's in the cards for The Man Who Would Be King specifically).

Hope this somewhat answers your question.

Idk if you’ve answered that already, but I was always wondering what time zone you’re in 🤔 🌎

EST/EDT, but I do use a queue so things get spaced out.

#about this blog

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

for the cullens, who would you say is the most to least set in their ways?

That's hard, anon, because... well, they're the Cullens.

But alright, let's make this controversial list.

Rosalie

Edward and Rosalie compete for the top spots here but I think Rosalie has to win because we don't see her change significantly in canon. Because of Bella and his falling in love with her, Edward changes both his outlook on life and significant personal beliefs (vampires having souls).

Now, it's hard going to get there, and he doesn't really change as a person, but he does confront himself and does grow in the series.

Rosalie, however, firmly believes that being human is the only option no matter what, even when faced with Bella who shows someone who firmly wants to become a vampire, doesn't want children (at first), and is quite happy upon becoming a vampire.

Rosalie has her set beliefs and she really really really doesn't want to change even when presented alternatives. She also doesn't want to admit that hey, what may be the right thing for Rosalie may not be the right thing for Bella and things that matter to Rosalie may not matter to Bella.

Rosalie is incredibly stubborn and not just set in her ways but determined to be set in them.

Edward

Runner up is Edward.

Edward has certain views of himself, the world, Bella, his father, just about everyone that he will not change no matter the evidence he is presented with. He also is incredibly stubborn and when he decides on a course of action, fuck you, that's what he's going to do.

The entire series takes place because Edward is absolutely unwilling, in all circumstances no matter how dire, to ever turn Bella into a vampire.

Add onto that things like Edward being bound and determined to kill himself via the Volturi the moment Bella dies (remember he plans this early in Twilight when he realizes he's in love. He knows he's not going to turn her, so he's going to wait out her human life then kill himself afterwards and he has the whole thing planned out. It was just a matter of when).

Edward also wants to be a gentleman from the 1910's, when he grew up, and says as much often. Bella wants to do modern dating? Well, Bella, Edward wants to be a gentleman (except when it gets in the way of the things he wants, then he's going to ignore that).

Edward's incredibly set in his ways.

Alice

Alice is interesting.

In some ways, she's the very definition of flexibility. Alice is a leaf on the wind, following her visions for the best future, and as a result never quite understandable. She doesn't fight her visions, isn't set on a particular course of action, and will pivot as needed to do what's best for her and her family.

Except that's the thing, that's a philosophy and way of being Alice.

This is the way Alice has been for her entire life that she can remember, following her third eye and doing what's best, manipulating those around her in a benign manner to get the best outcome even if there are risks.

In many ways, Alice really should be number one, except that it's not that stubbornness of Rosalie and Edward and you are able to negotiate with her (so long as her inner eye agrees that's for the best).

Esme

Esme's third but it's a trailing fourth.

Esme doesn't have the willful stubbornness of Edward and Rosalie, the lack of any desire to change whatsoever under any circumstances or ever change her mind about things, but she does seem very unflappable and very untouched by anything that happens around her.

Esme always unfailingly sees the best in people--even people who are an enemy army of vampires going into Bella's bedroom to steal her clothes. There are times she seems completely out to lunch with what's happening and fails to confront Edward on his alarming behavior (she confronts him but it goes sideways quickly).

It's hard to imagine Esme changing her ways significantly because she's so... Esme.

Jasper

This is a very very very trailing fifth for Jasper, he's nowhere near Rosalie and Edward's level and really not set in his ways at all. Jasper overturns his life, goes on a whacky diet after eating people for a hundred fifty years, starts going to high school.

Jasper is far from set in his ways.

But he does have trouble adjusting and getting himself out of the "I am a territorial warlord" headspace.

Jasper's always looking for threats and how to eliminate them, he doesn't think twice about killing Bella in Twilight to keep the secret even when the family's debating over whether this is something they should do. In Eclipse he's right back in his element of planning the fight with the newborn army.

He struggles the most with his thirst (though this is likely due to losing the genetic lottery and not so much personality) and as a result struggles with the Cullen lifestyle.

He tries to interact with Bella as a human and when he does it leads to disaster and then he retracts and keeps huge distance until he feels he can safely be around her.

Jasper's not set in his ways but it does seem it's hard to remove himself from the past.

Emmett

Emmett's a very easy going guy who's lighthearted and gets along with just about everyone. He's great at easing tension, doesn't take things too seriously, and is able to talk down both Rosalie and Edward throughout the series.

Now, that's a kind of unflappable personality that's not really prone to change, which puts him here on our list, but that's not what I'd really call set in his ways.

Emmett gladly adopts new technology, doesn't seem hung up on anything about his human life whatsoever, and while I don't imagine his personality changing much it really doesn't have to.

I think Emmett's a very adaptable person (as shown by his taking a vampire wife who saved him from a bear in the first place).

The only thing that's a bit strange is his bear vendetta but you do you, Emmett.

Carlisle

In some ways, Carlisle deserves the top spot on this list, as he's the most stubborn man alive. He'll happily die before giving up this diet, even if his eyes turn funny colors, he'll train himself to be a doctor, he remains a devout Christian even when a demon, and he does what he wants.

However, he's also kind of the definition of change.

This 16th century Anglican priest became a demon, then decided to make being a demon suit him, traveled the world to find people like him, then becomes a doctor and attends university because he can, and adapts to each new work environment and his ever expanding family of vampires and nonsense thrown his way.

Carlisle is anything but set in his ways for all that he's very very stubborn about his ideals.

Renesmee

We don't see much of her but Renesmee has no real ways to be set into. She lives in a bizarre glass bubble (in which a war almost happens three months after she's born), she herself is constantly changing physically every second, and it's hard to imagine her ever getting herself into a rut because like it or not things are going to happen as she gets older.

This puts her at the least set in her ways.

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

What if that night in Godric's hollow Lily chose to let Voldemort kill Harry and stepped aside when Voldemort asked her to?

Self-preservation kicked in! No one knows how they will react facing death. She should not be blamed for protecting herself.

Would she be honest and tell people what really happened or make up some believable story? What would happen to her after that night? Does she leave England? How would the Order/Sirius/Dumbledore react to the events? Would Severus go after Lily and tell her he is her hero? Would this be a better AU for Lily and the wizard world?

Woof.

Well.

It's not good.

Would She Be Honest and Tell People What Happened?

We don't really know much about Lily's character is the thing. I make a lot of things up for my own benefit, but that's my taking and running with the very little we see in canon.

We really don't know how she'd react.

The way I characterize her? Feeling guilty over her husband's death (who died for her and Harry) and the fact that she survived her son (who she perhaps could have protected) she'll confess to what happened. She wants people to blame and hate her so she can punish herself for this.

And judge and punish her they do as this is something the Order and the greater public just can't understand. I'm sure rumors of how and why Lily was spared also fly and soon Lily goes from the truth of simply stepping aside (and being spared because of Snape) to having slept with Voldemort to save her life to being his spy the entire time.

What Would Happen to Her After that Night?

The gossip against her is massive and I imagine the Order never quite trusts her again. They may not kick her out, though I'm sure some (certainly Sirius who is mad with grief over James's death) vote for it. Lily may leave of her own free will out of guilt and so as not to give the Order a black eye.

The Prophet may or may not run smear campaigns against her both to distract from the realities of the Ministry not managing anything against You-Know-Who and because this is such a shocking awful story.

Lily becomes persona non grata but is presumably left alone by the Death Eaters as Voldemort chose to spare her life and the order has been passed down through the ranks (and as Voldemort is alive he keeps Bella and the Lestranges and Barty in check in a way he didn't at this point in canon).

Lily lives a miserable life in which her husband and son are both dead, she's of no help to the cause, and she's trying to get on with it.

How Would the Order/Sirius/Dumbledore React?

See above but I imagine ostracization.

Sirius would never forgive Lily for James having died and Lily just selfishly allowing Harry to be killed. I imagine he'd blame her in his mind and believe that she had betrayed James personally by doing this. Not to mention what kind of a person/Gryffindor steps aside to let her baby be murdered?

The Order at large would likely have mixed opinions but the Weasleys for example would vocally condemn Lily and despise her for this.

Dumbledore would, I imagine, think much lesser of Lily and start saying things he says about Merope about how Lily just didn't love her son enough/wasn't a very strong woman. He wouldn't condemn her quite as much as Sirius or Molly but there'd be an undertone of "this happened because you are weak".

Would Severus Go After Lily and Tell Her He's Her Hero?

Severus is home free, you bet your ass he does.

Lily's probably out of the Order, James Potter his greatest enemy is dead, Sirius is out of the picture because of James's death, even the hellspawn Harry Potter is dead and out of the way.

They can now go back to exactly what they were and the Dark Lord did hold to his promise after all (and oh dear god Severus betrayed him behind his back, hope he doesn't find out about this).

I imagine Severus would try to reconnect and either:

lie about being a Death Eater entirely (probably won't work)

say he's realized the error of his ways, admit to giving the information to Dumbledore to save Lily's life, but he can't leave the Death Eaters because of the mark/he'll certainly be killed

Probably he goes with option 2 as he can't exactly pretend he never held his views or wasn't a Death Eater at all and he firmly believes that he took this huge risk, saved her life, and he's completely redeemed now.

Would This Be a Better AU for the Wizarding World and Lily?

Well.

Lily's son and husband died horribly, she's haunted by survivor's guilt forever, all her friends hate her and she's completely isolated, Snape is back on her doorstep believing she should be grateful to him for his actions and he deserves instant forgiveness, and the Dark Lord is still alive and well, has the future minister's son in his pocket, has infiltrated the government completely, and can take over any time he pleases with one out of two prophecy children dead (and Neville... probably doesn't last long after this).

So.

No.

It's better for 0 people.

It's actually much worse for everyone except Tom.

Tom is enjoying not being a wraith in Quirrel's head, thank you very much.

Do you agree with Alphard's "pureblood supremacy" views? Is that really something one can make out of canon? He doesn't seem to be the type to lie to himself or be fooled by propaganda, so he has to have some sort of proof, right?

Anon.

One of the scenarios I’ve had in my head for a while but can’t seem to find a solution for, is what if Sirius, instead of going after Peter on Halloween 1981, he thought "Ffs, everyone’s gonna think I betrayed James and Lily! I have to hide!" and then… actually hid because he knew he wouldn’t be able to prove his innocence?

Do you have any thoughts on that?

Sirius and His Imprisonment

Well, was he not able to prove his innocence?

The thing about Sirius is that he has the memories where Peter was made Secret Keeper in his place and will confess as much under Veritaserum. It's true he could have obliviated and rewritten the memories himself but that becomes overly convoluted and not something people would deem likely.

The trouble with Sirius is a series of tragic circumstances and weird things happening.

First, the whole ploy was that everyone thought he was Secret Keeper which meant they thought he was Secret Keeper. They assume he betrayed the Potters. This seems to be only confirmed when Sirius disappears for two weeks to hunt Peter. There's then a violent confrontation, Peter is presumed dead because they don't realize he could escape as an animagus, and it looks like Sirius struck the killing blow (that killed a whole lot of Muggles too).

This, combined with things being a mess and everyone being rounded up to be purged, combined with Sirius not being at his best mental health when he is found (laughing like a madman in the street), combined with Sirius being related to Bellatrix who around this time is also arrested for torturing the Lestranges into insanity, and we get this weird situation where they just don't bother to question Sirius at all.

There's no investigation, no reviewing of his memories, no putting him on Veritaserum. They just stick him in Azkaban because it seems like such an open and shut case and they've got Lucius Malfoy over there to try and deal with and imprison.

The thing is, he had what he needed to at least cast doubt on the situation, it's just that it didn't happen. I don't know if he would assume it's inevitable though.

Oh, he knew it was bad, he knew everyone would think as much, but his priority was not to clear his own name but to get revenge on Peter before he could disappear/potentially be caught by the law.

I don't think we (or Sirius even) can take it as a given that he would be caught. Especially since the whole thing with Peter is that he had to disappear because if he hadn't then chances were he would be the one who was caught.

Even Then...

And even if it was... Sirius cares more about revenge than his own safety. That's the whole thing. He does that in 1981 when he chases after Peter immediately and even when he breaks out of Azkaban in 1993. He would rather kill Peter in 1993 than use him to prove his innocence until he realizes he needs to be there for Harry (and then things go sideways).

Sirius would never sit by and hide or even rot in prison if he has a chance to get Peter.

You're actually just describing what Peter did. Peter, in terror and realizing Sirius knew and he was likely to be caught or killed, goes into hiding as a rat for over 10 years with the Weasleys.

Sonce you guys are currently in Part 2 of Secret Fic, any plans on posting part 1 soon? Very excited to read if you do choose to post it.

Sadly the answer is no, and this is because as has been mentioned before, we've stuck it in a private collection on Ao3 which is great for editing (hooray) but bad for revealing things one chapter at a time.

It also lets us go back and edit things we need to in past chapters which does come up now and then.

So secret fic only when secret fic is done.

Look, @therealvinelle, anticipation!

The one thing I don't get about Hogwarts is the house point system. Like, I get what it's supposed to do on paper, but what exactly do the kids get out of it? A cup at the end of the year? And they don't even get the cup, the head of house does. Are kids really competing for which teacher gets to have a cup in their office for a year?

There's lots of that in school and work places in general.

Schools (especially elementary) often have gold star systems. You don't actually get anything if you get a gold star, you just get a gold star, but damn if some people don't love racking up stars.

At work and later schooling there will be awards for good grades and other things that don't actually affect your future in any real way but you can still get them.

People get a lot out of intrinsic motivation/rewards that don't necessarily mean anything or have any influence (e.g. get you money/opportunities for the future) but let you know 'hey you did a good thing and are valued and recognized'. This actually motivates people a fuck ton and sometimes more than extrinsic rewards.

The house points are right in that alley of gamification of good behavior for the group of students as a whole.

You bet your ass there are students there obsessed with earning house points and really deeply care about getting the house cup. (See actually Hermione and even Harry in terms of the house cup and being very upset if Slytherin is close to winning.)

The hilarious bit is that Dumbledore sabotages this system multiple times at the end of the year which sort of undermines the entire point and teaches Slytherins never to work hard because Dumbledore will just yank it away.

In Twilight, what if James killed Charlie and Renee in an attempt to lure Bella?

Would the Cullens feel guilty about this?

How would Bella fare as an 17 year old orphan? How would new moon change when Bella has to go to school and have a job to survive?

Would Aro insist in turning Bella since she has no people to search for her?

Would there be eclipse and breaking dawn? If Bella gets pregnant, how would she name the baby (Charlnee)?

I imagine they'd feel guilty as they did feel guilty about the Bella thing (and this is in part why they left in New Moon).

I imagine Bella would go to live with Billy (as the other option is Phil who travels for work and she really doesn't know that well) and because of the treaty Edward would probably take that as his cue to New Moon a little early (as he had always planned to do this in Twilight anyway).

New Moon now takes place at the Black house with Billy and Jake and they become increasingly worried about her blatant depression. Jacob also has angst of "I can't fuck my stepsister. Is she my stepsister? This isn't incest, right? THIS DOESN"T COUNT, RIGHT?!" that Bella is entirely oblivious to.

As for the rest of the series... if Bella has her suicide attempt then Edward may very well kill himself. There's a clear difference here in that Edward has no one to call to confirm the funeral and if he does call Billy... "yes, boy the girl is dead forever, goodbye" as Billy does not want these Cullens up in Bella's business. Alice then can't go on Quileute land to confirm for herself that Bella is or isn't alive and so there's no one to stop Edward's suicide.

The rest of the series doesn't happen.

That Amulet update was everything. It was an awesome chapter! And just what I needed after a lousy day in a lousy week. Seeing that one of my favorite fics updated and getting to read such a dramatic and entertaining chapter really brightened my day.

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

What if Rosalie woke up as a vampire with no memories of her human life?

She doesn't remember being Rosalie Hale, Royce, or the rape. Do the Cullens pretend that she was a homeless orphan dying abandoned on the streets who Carlisle found, or do they tell her what happened? How would her relationship with Edward and vampirism be like? Would she be happier as a vampire?

How would Rosalie having no human memories change the twilight canon when Bella enters the picture?

You're hilarious, anon.

They don't have a choice, Edward immediately tells her who she is and exactly what happened. Remember he was arguing with Carlisle as she was turning/immediately after that she's the worst person, vain and selfish, and he doesn't want her in their lives while Carlisle's going on about how he found her.

Rosalie is told immediately and Edward lords it over her forever that he knew who she was better than she does and she was the worst person alive.

She now doesn't know why she married Royce, who did such a horrible thing to her, or if she really was this vain and self centered as Edward claims.

She would probably be about the same as a vampire because of this.

well isn't the explanation just "it should have been THE WORST possible person"

i think it tracks. she's what, half his age? his favourite little student. whom he invited to a party where he wanted to clear himself of rape accusations, but actually kinda confirmed those in front of everyone. everybody felt lucky to run away from here unscathed, poor girl just was a little too slow, and now. you see. and given that Dumbledore is a powerful wizard (in the eyes of general public) there's really no guarantee that he didn't tamper with her memories, even if she says it's all she wanted.

Amulette d'Amour by me and @therealvinelle

I think they meant "why would these two consent to fucking each other" and less so on the "how are they the worst for each other"

What if the magic world prime minister informed the muggle prime minister of the death eaters and Voldemort?

-"There is a war going on and we need your help..."

Would the police and the army be looking for death eaters? Would the public be told of a new terrorist group/satanic cult causing problems?

This is canon.

In the third book Fudge releases information that a dangerous criminal has escaped prison. It's unclear here if he went about faking it for the Muggle media or if this came from the top down but Sirius Black was on the Muggle news.

In the sixth book, the PM infamously gets to meet Fudge and Scrigemore who tell him all the natural disasters and bridge collapses and nonsense have been Death Eaters and Voldemort. "The fuck are you doing about it?" the PM asks and then they leave.

Generally, though, the relationship seems to be that the wizarding world only tells the Muggles things when they have to and they don't really rely on them for anything. At most it's a "you tell us if you see X and we'll deal with it" which is fair because that's for the most part all the Muggles can really deal with.

So the Muggles were looking for Sirius Black, they weren't looking for You-Know-Who.
