i love alice and bella’s relationship honestly, they’re such curl up on the couch and dish kind of friends. they do disagree on fashion, but that’s almost for the best because it gives them something inconsequential to tease each other endlessly about. they also text each other from the same room all the time so no one will hear them gossip (except edward, who is fully under their control)
god I really would have cried. his pants and shirts are always covered in grease and paint stains. he spends hours, days, weeks, even months carving tiny charms (and various other items) out of wood. Charle has so much of his work displayed throughout the house and it always makes Jake so happy.
They’re so chaotic. I’ve said this a million times but they’re Chaotic Good icons.
They go grocery shopping for Bella and later Jacob and the rest of the back together and it’s wild. They buy anything any everything. They fill multiple carts, Emmett yells for Esme across the store when he loses her.
Esme helped Emmett plant some flowers in the garden for him to give to Rosalie. She taught him how to be careful of his vampire strength so that he wouldn’t damage the flowers.
They love to compete. Just lil things like board games or something. Connect four, tic tax tow, whatever. They don’t care what it is they always have fun together.
They love to race!! Emmett’s stronger but Esme is faster so she usually wins. They race on land, hop from trees.
Emmett’s the one the start the tradition of celebrating Esme on Mother’s Day.
When the Wii first came out Esme and Emmett spent days playing Wii Boxing.
When they play the nintendo together, Esme is Mario and Emmett is Luigi.
Emmett helps her out in her garden more than anyone else. He doesn’t even do anything really, just sits beside her and chats. Sometimes he carries bags of soil and stuff for her even though she could do it herself.
They like to cook together. Esme likes to try out all kinds of different recipes for their new werewolf friends. They have pinterest pages and are constantly sending each other different recipes.
They love amusement parks. Esme and Emmett go together on rainy days sometimes. They wait in those annoying lines to ride the newest, craziest roller coasters.
I wrote a fic about this and it remains one of my favorite hc’s. Esme and Emmett didn’t grow up with the privileged childhoods and educations that Rosalie and Edward had. They hadn’t been to college or medical school like Carlisle, hadn’t spent centuries learning. When Emmett joined the family and was able to go to school, he struggled a little when it came to keeping up with his peers. It wasn’t that Emmett was any less intelligent but his childhood had been spent helping his parents, hunting, etc. He struggled and it was embarrassing when he looked around at his vampire family of Geniuses. Esme noticed one day and shared that she had felt the same way upon joining the family. Carlisle was a brilliant doctor and Edward was doing so well in school, was taking college classes. They could discuss theories and books and authors that she’d never even heard of; they were masters and chess and cards and music while she struggled to keep up with any of it. Esme told Emmett that he had nothing to be ashamed of, that after he had decades behind him he’d be able to breeze through high school as well. She told him that there was more to life, more to one’s worth than school anyway. That even if he never managed to master geometry or whatever science class he was trying to pass, he wouldn’t be thought of as any less than Rose or Edward or Carlisle.
Emmett and Esme don’t even realize it but they are absolutely the glue that holds the family together. They bring more joy to the household than they know. They’re laughter, they’re infectious good spirits keep the Cullens going.
