I have a friend who has recently gotten into Formula 1, and through texting with her I realized that a street racing AU for twilight could be really good.
> Carlisle is still a doctor, but in this case he specializes in plastic surgery.
> Edward comes from a racing family; both he and his brother Peter started racing young.
> Their parents both died of an H1N1 infection (fun fact this is actually a resurgence of the Spanish flu) because of their HIV positive status making them more vulnerable to infection.
> Carlisle had always been interested in racing, and so had met them through charity events organized by Mrs. Mason.
> Upon her death, Mrs. Mason asked that both her sons be adopted by Dr. Cullen, but he was only able to adopt Edward using the argument that he had inherited a genetic predisposition for AIDS from his father.
> Peter instead got sent to their aunt Maria, who was already a foster parent in Mississippi.
> Esme, in a fit of truly unhinged support for her new son, decided to indulge his desire to vent his emotions by joining a local street racing scene. She was, however, concerned about the relative safety of the practice, and pressured Carlisle to start his own scene in a smaller town to allow for a racing outlet with less influence from other illegal activity.
> After a few years in Chicago, Carlisle has successfully built up a scene in a tiny town in Washington, in a place where the two-officer police department for the region can’t do much to stop it.
> Before they move, Carlisle adopts Rosalie, a foster child who had been sneaking out to hone her skills working on the cars. He hopes to set her up with Edward, working on his car, but she ends up preferring to race her own cars, so Edward is still without a personal mechanic.
> The champions of the scene in Forks are called Vampires, because the prize is free plastic surgery from Carlisle, making winners appear ageless.
> Edward had always somewhat disliked racing, only leaning into it in his teens as a form of depressed rebellion. By the time he’s living in Forks he resents his Vampire status, resents that he seems somehow faster than the previous Vampires, resents that he feels he cannot just give it up without disappointing Esme.
> Down in Mississippi, Peter has also ended up street racing. It turns out Maria has been abusing her position in the foster care system to bring in new drivers, make money off the thriving betting scene while they’re still unknowns, then discarding them as they get too old, in collaboration with Jasper, who came back from Iraq with a silver tongue that got him out of many a field mission and gets the kids into racing.
> Little does Maria know, but Jasper has started dating Alice, the bookie who runs the betting on the races. She’s got him convincing Peter to throw races Maria had bet he would win, and so their business relationship is broken and Alice is run out of town.
> Peter tells Jasper about the new scene up in Forks, which he is aware of because he’s been following Edward’s socials, even though Edward fully burned that bridge in the immediate aftermath of their separation.
> After Jasper starts racing, and Alice starts taking bets on the outcomes, the races get more intense, and more and more local teens start to go out to watch and bet and even race.
> Of note are Bella, who was dragged out by Mike Newton, who thinks he is her boyfriend but is not, and Emmett, who took a fancy to Rosalie and has been following the races ever since she arrived.
> Bella takes an interest in Edward, but after she clears up Mike’s misunderstanding, has no way of knowing where the next race is to take place. She ends up enlisting her childhood friend Jacob Black, who has an interest in fixing up cars and so has been doing repairs for any kids on the res who want to race but can’t get a mechanic to help them out cause illegal.
> Jacob tells her about how the racing scene actually predates Carlisle by decades, and that the winners used to be called wolves. However, Carlisle wrested control of much of the scene from the locals who’d been running it by offering better prizes, and so the locals, Quileute and settler alike generally resented the Cullens.
> Emmett and Bella end up feeling the brunt of this, as their new friends grow distant as their relationships to the two Cullen children get more obvious. Edward is angsty about this.
> One particularly close race sees Jasper force Rosalie off the road, hitting Emmett. While she could have continued driving, her car being undamaged, she instead stopped to rush Emmett to the hospital in Seattle, a choice which saved his life according to the doctors there.
> Edward’s goes full New Moon over this, asking Carlisle to shut down the races and fully ghosting Bella.
> This simply causes the preexisting racing scene to resurrect itself on the res, with the Cullens as persona non grata. Jacob helps Bella get started racing (motorcycle races).
> A girl named Victoria from Chicago comes to the area, intent on getting revenge on Edward, who ruined her boyfriend James’ perfect racing record back when he was at his most depressed, coming off of his parents’ deaths.
> She brings in a bunch of new racers and in the significantly more crowded race Bella is wounded, which Edward feels responsible for and so confronts Victoria to an even more unsanctioned race, which he of course wins, even though he hadn’t raced in months because Rosalie was willing to work on his car, in large part for Bella’s sake, because Bella is worried sick about Edward, when Rosalie told Alice told Bella what he was planning to do.
> Finally, in a twist ending, Peter and Maria get into a huge fight, culminating in a high speed chase that kills both of them, leaving Peter’s secret daughter Renesmee, the reason he hadn’t left Maria, to his only living relative, Edward.
If anyone wants to write this, I’ll send it over to @twibunny Optional element to consider is the dynamic between Bella and Charlie as he hates the Cullens but also does not want his daughter doing illegal street racing. I’m sure there’s more I didn’t think of but I think the translation works better than it has any right to.

Twilight Advent Calendar 2023 Event
🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Dec. 15 - Tell us about a point in the canon timeline where things could have easily gone in a different direction. How differently would things turn out in this AU?
As cool as the surprise history was between James and Alice, it makes no sense to me that he would still be interested in Bella at all once he recognized Alice. At the very least, the Alice storyline should have been prominent enough in his thoughts for Edward to notice.
Jasper's emotional camoflauge in Midnight Sun was a decent retcon attempt for this, but come on. If James is so obsessed with hunting and that one failure has been bugging him for 84 years, he should drop everything and start hunting Alice again.
He would be so excited about the challenge of getting around Alice's gift to try to get to her, to separate the family, etc. How does Victoria feel about his little game? How will the Cullens keep both Bella and Alice safe? Does Jasper ever fight James one-on-one? Do Laurent or the Denalis figure into this story at all? Does James bring in any other allies on his side? If this hunt goes on long enough to catch the Volturi's attention, do they get involved (either to clean up a mess or because Aro is excited to learn about Alice)?
You can find all of the #twilightadvent23 prompts here!

Edward's years as a 'real' vampire fanfic?
Looking for Edward's years as a human blood drinking vampire fanfiction canon in EPOV!
Edward went on his own for a few years (1927-31) as we all know it, he resented Carlisle for curbing his appetite and he went to hunt humans. He hunted criminals and other human monsters. @jessicanjpa Tale of Years: 1927 is a great piece but I need more!

It would be cool to have a fic of Renesmee going to school with her parents and everything’s chill. until she falls in love with a human and edward is just like “oh no” so they have ‘the talk’ and she blames her feelings of falling-in-love-with-a-human on her dad. (Jacob takes it cool after a little melt down and is Renesmee’s wingman)
@twibunny
#twibunny#renesmee cullen#nessie#edward cullen#bella cullen#jacob black#Renesmee and the human fall in love so she wants to turn her#bella and edward are like I don't think that's a good idea#jacob sees that he won't ever have the chance to be with her then and has another melt down#Renesmee tries to bite her but she doesn't have enough venom#eventually edward sees himself and turns the lover for Renesmee#trigger might be like when Renesmee tries to change them she almost kills them??

the #FREEHEIDI fic
Another fic I'll probably never write, so please adopt:
It's common fanon that the vampire world might eventually get together and overthrow the Volturi. Specifically, I like the idea of this revolution igniting around a more specific rallying point besides just "We're tired of Volturi rule."
Heidi's predicament would be perfect for this.
In Breaking Dawn, Eleazar finally put two and two together re: Aro's habit of poaching gifted vampires by persecuting their covens. He (Eleazar) talked about this openly among the Cullen witnesses. He and Edward also spoke openly about what Chelsea does. Even the Volturi's witnesses might have heard Edward say that Chelsea was trying to break their bonds. This is presumably (?) new information to those witnesses, who in turn began to spread that news throughout the greater vampire world.
So this is some good dirt on the Volturi, maybe enough push dissent into open revolution. But whoever will be orchestrating that revolution is aware that making the cause even more personal will attract more support.
So they launch the #FREEHEIDI campaign. Heidi is well-known and probably well-liked in the vampire world already, and this is the perfect time to dredge up the circumstances of her induction into the Guard. The best part of the campaign is that they don't even need Heidi's cooperation; the whole point is that her free will was taken away. Much is made about how much she's lost, how hard she's being worked, and for what dark purposes her gift might be employed. Plenty of assumptions are made and those assumptions become facts.
There are other candidates for poster victim, of course: Demetri's situation is pretty similar to Heidi's. Benjamin could stand for all the free gifted vampires who live in fear of being enslaved, especially because his youth and gentle spirit give him an air of vulnerability. Vampires like Siobhan and refugees from the American Southern Wars can testify how the Volturi failed to protect/rescue them. Or the cause could focus around the casualties of Volturi greed: the focus could be on Hilda instead of Heidi, for example. Vengeance, after all, is a powerful force in vampire society.
I think Heidi is the best candidate, though, since she is already well-known and her story is so tragic. And the fact that she's still being victimized now and still in need of rescue now will lend a powerful sense of urgency to the cause. And the fact that she can't be present to speak for herself gives her place as a figurehead a certain legendary feel to it. It makes her larger than life (unlife?).
(The #FREEHEIDI name was sort of a crackfic joke at first, but...? This could be the first time vampire culture gets interconnected digitally. If enough vampires get online* together, this campaign has the potential to gain steam quickly and also succeed through good organization. And having a catchy name that stokes everyone's righteous anger...always a strong recruitment strategy.)
The question is: who is orchestrating this campaign? And what is their true motive?
------
*If the campaign starts online, the person behind it could stay anonymous. That'll keep things interesting.

I just really need a post-canon fic about the Cullens moving to a new town with Bella included in the “kids” and going to high school for the first time as a vampire.

Jasper x Male!reader
he is a descendent of Alice, and like her he has visions. But since he got a head wound from nearly being mauled (Edward saved him while Jasper decimated the offending creature.)
He can't see pictures in his head anymore. So, it starts to manifest in spurts where he can see things in his head, but he can't make them out clearly because they go by so fast. Edward can see them! Alice helps him adjust and Jasper does too, but Jasper more so let's those two take the lead because Jasper has him during nighttime and he is "returned" per say to Jasper around the evening.
Jasper and he talk while reader gets settled in for the night. (He is a hybrid.) And since Edward and Alice are so helpful with seeing and interpreting these visions reader feels less distressed.
So, he and Jasper get their magic back. So, they walk around the woods, go on small dates, and just spend quality time together.

Oh goodness, a fluff idea???, unlike me completely... 😶🌫️
Vampires have to sleep. But only for an hour at a time does Jasper let himself sleep. Instead of the whole night because he feels he has to stay up so Alice can sleep soundly. She pulls him to bed and makes him lay down. He falls asleep and, in his sleep, snuggles up to her.
Making her especially happy, which he senses in his sleep, so he dreams happy dreams instead of not dreaming at all.
His gift does its thing and makes the whole house happy, like high happiness. So essentially, he's doping the whole house.

Vladimir creates a shit ton of immortal children. He snatches as many as possible and manages to sick them on the Volturi.
His mate doesn't know. (His canonical mate or an Oc)
I was thinking Oc cause his mate was in the coven. SO, she probably was ok with the way things were.

And finds out and a beatdown ensues. So, the volturi just run up to her beating the shit out of him and yelling at him in Romanian. (He used to rule the Romanian coven hence Romanian.)
I can imagine her ripping his arms off and his feet and maybe rip his knee out of the other leg she isn't standing on and bludgeoning him with his own arm in the torso and head and neck and face.
And Stefan just skedaddled while she was beating the shit out of him.
Stefan | Twilight Saga Wiki | Fandom
Idk I suppose this could be after canon since he could try to blame the Cullens. Since they didn't go after the Volturi as they were on their way back to Volterra.
