Random Questions I'd like to ask the Twilight Characters (Part 11)
51. What did Emmett do before he met the Cullens?
Logical Conclusion: Emmett was a regular guy. He enjoyed hunting meat for his family, keeping them happy and fed. This is a complete fabrication. I honestly don't know what Emmett did for a living, nor do I know why he was in the woods.
Sarah's Story: Emmett was an alligator wrestler who wanted a bigger challenge. He liked Pina Coladas and gettin' caught in the rain. Sadly, these pastimes didn't help him 'rassle a bear.
51 ½. Why was Emmett fighting a bear when Rosalie saved him?
Logical Conclusion: He was out hunting. The bear was out hunting. The bear was a better hunter than Emmett.
Sarah's Story: Alligators were too easy. Emmett wanted something bigger, something scarier. Instead of trying to work his way up, he went to the top of the forested North American food chain – a Grizzly bear.
52. Did Alice predict she'd be put in an insane asylum?
Logical Conclusion: No, because if she did predict that, she'd have changed something about her life until she wasn't put in an asylum.
Sarah's Story: Alice clearly predicted being in full darkness. She just thought she'd be building a tent out of blankets and chairs in the living room – it never occurred to her she'd get put in an asylum.
53. How did Edward manage to get Bella's "before" car?
Logical Conclusion: Money talks.
Sarah's Story: Edward traversed the globe searching for the perfect car. A fully-loaded, armed tank? Too obvious. A hummer? Too rich looking. But a big black car with missle-proof glass? Perfect. He simply picked the car up with his little finger and walked off with it. Carlisle swam to France from Italy – Edward swam the car from Europe across the Atlantic, through the Panama Canal, and back up the Pacific coast to Forks. People who spotted him swore he was the strangest sea-turtle they'd ever seen.
54. Did vampires still suck blood in London during the black plague?
Logical Conclusion: Nope. They moved out of the city looking for new blood.
Sarah's Story: Did ya ever kiss someone who was sick? How about someone who was pimply? How about sick AND pimply? How about if those pimples were the size of a golf ball and were weeping, open sores? Yeah, um, the vampires found lunch OUTSIDE London.
55. Have there ever been any Quilieute vampires?
Logical Conclusion: Nope. All the vampires who met Quilieutes were mentioned in Billy's stories during Eclipse. Plus, it's mentioned (at LEAST in Breaking Dawn, if not the other books) that vampire saliva is lethal to werewolves/shapeshifters.
Sarah's Story: Ah, blood lust. It's too strong to allow any vampires to abandon their lunch when tasty, sexy Quilieutes are about. Just look at those werewolves in the two Twilight movies. Wouldn't you like to stay all day and drink in the six-packs on those wolves' tummies? Exactly. Vampires take one look at that attractive bunch and they have the exact same thought. Seriously. Those bad boys are SO delectable.
