Random Questions I'd like to ask the Twilight Characters (Part 26)
126. What's harder – a diamond, or vampire skin?
Logical Conclusion: After seeing Edward's gorgeous face shatter/break/re-form in the tower after fighting the volturi, I'm sure that they're both hard, but they're both prone to fracturing. The difference is, when Edward's face shatters/breaks/re-forms, yes, ladies, it does re-form into a gorgeous vampire. When a diamond breaks, it's not gonna magically glue itself back together. Diamonds are hard, vampire skin is hard, but only one survives a fracture.
Sarah's Story: Diamonds are a girl's best friend, but they don't smell as good as Edward. (Uses sultry voice...) They're both really hard, and... Ooh, Ok, leaving the answer at that. We won't get dirty, my dears. My mind might be in the gutter, but there's no need to sully yours.
127. I really like to make my house smell nice using candles and air fresheners. Do vampires have blood scented air fresheners?
Logical Conclusion: Bella would have noticed the first time she came into the Cullen household if they used blood-scented air fresheners. She knows that blood smells like rust and salt. The scent makes her sick. There's no blood in the Cullen household until she cuts her finger during the disasterous New Moon birthday party. (Sob. Edward left after that... Sob...) Blood might smell good to vampires, but as shown during Bella's graduation party, the scents used were NOT that of blood.
Sarah's Story: No, vampires do not use blood-scented air fresheners. That would leave Jasper sucking on the wall unit – "plug it in, plug it in..."
128. How frequently do vampires shower?
Logical Conclusion: Well, since vampires smell good to humans no matter what, and since vampires obviously don't sweat and don't secrete grease out of their pores, they'd have no reason to shower until after they hunt or get dirty.
Sarah's Story: I'll happily volunteer to help bathe any of the male Cullens. Bubbles? No problem. Gotcha covered.
129. Does Esme yell at the other Cullens if they bring in mud on their shoes? (She does have light colored carpet, after all...)
Logical Conclusion: Esme doesn't yell. I can't imagine the poor dear yelling. She doesn't get upset over much. She's such a mommy. She wants her babies happy, no matter what. A little mud doesn't bother her in the least.
Sarah's Story: Of course, I have a different perspective on the whole carpet idea. I'm not the Cullen's mom, thank goodness. I love the dear boys as any admiring gal would. Now, as for me, personally, I have cream-colored carpeting. I wouldn't yell at Edward even if he decided to bring his dead deer carcasses into the living room and chow down during Jeopardy. Who cares? It's Edward. I'd visually feast on his biceps while he enjoyed dinner.
130. How do other vampires know not to go on Quilieute land? Quilieutes haven't had werewolves since the first time the Cullens came around, so how did vampires know to stay away?
Logical Conclusion: Werewolves smell bad. Vampires don't like bad smells. They'd stay away based on smell alone. Have you ever smelled a dead skunk? You aren't exactly likely to go over to it and investigate where it is and how it got there. You move on and hope someone else deals with it before you have to go through there again.
Sarah's Story: Ever seen a dog on the corner markin' his territory on the fire hydrant? Yeah. Those Quilieutes probably have a similar way of ensuring the vampires know not to come around...
