10 ways to stay entertained if you can't leave the house

or “how to stay at home - the twilight way”

1. rewatch the twilight saga movies. you have 5 cinematic masterpieces to go through, plus hours and hours of extra content, behind the scenes and bloopers. put together a marathon or watch a little bit everyday, just don’t forget to rank japers’ wigs from best to worst and then let me know what your least favorite one was 

2. reread the twilight books. all four books are wild journeys on their own, and if you’ve only read them at a young age you’d certainly be surprised giving them a new shot - both in good and bad ways

3. read twilight “extras”. between the short second life of bree tanner, the official illustrated guide, life and death, the available chapters of midnight sun and extra scenes of each of the four main books on stephenie’s website, there’s a ton of content for those who have already memorized the original story

4. read twilight fan fiction - on tumblr, on AO3, wherever else you want. there are incredibly talented writers out there in the fandom who have brought to life improved different versions of our beloved characters and created better new storylines based on the saga, so it’s a wonderful opportunity to read them, leave comments & share their content with the world. this also includes blurbs, imagines and the endless adventures of y/n for those of you (ok, us) who like to imagine what it’d be like to be bitten by carlisle or camp in the woods with leah

5. write twilight fan fiction! if what’s out there is not enough to fulfill your deepest fantasies and solve the plot holes that bother you the most, bring to life a scene you’ve always wanted to see or fix something that you hate in canon (yes, i mean jacob imprinting on renesmee). this includes other types of content creation like drawing, edits, collages , clay sculptures & whatever else floats your boat

6. pretend you’re bella in new moon and write e-mails to alice telling her about your feelings for edward (or the cute guy/gal in your class/office that you won’t be seeing for a while bc y'all can’t go anywhere right now). be as dramatic as you want, just make sure you don’t send it to the person accidentally

7. watch interviews with the cast! they went on a lot of events and panels back when the movies were coming out, so there’s a ton of videos to enjoy. maybe you’ve seen them all more times than it should be legal, maybe there’s one or two you haven’t watched in a while, maybe there’s a compilation of funny moments you’re yet to check out. whatever it is, just let the endless void of the youtube search bar help you navigate the next few weeks with a little bit of joy

8. listen to the movies’ soundtracks. they were really ahead of their time and I can guarantee that there are some hidden jams in there you’re yet to sing in the shower - or while washing your hands. you can also make your own playlists inspired by a book, a ship, a scene or a movie with songs you believe would fit the vibe (‘what makes you beautiful’ for edward & bella, anyone?)

9. put together your dream casting for the movies. i’ve made a few posts on this and I could go on forever, it’s just so fun to imagine my own version of the characters! make the vampires more diverse, stick to the book descriptions, switch everyone’s genders - your cast, your rules! 

10. catch up on the cast’s more recent work! not everyone got as much success as they were probably hoping for when they joined the saga, BUT regardless of that they’ve all been involved in other projects since leaving forks so there’s a lot to explore. be it movies, tv shows, musical careers or other side activities, show some support to those who endured so many years of bad wigs and cringy dialogue for us ♥

are you guys twilight fans or normal? ❤️

Me: Twilight is so great

Someone: didn’t the wolf fall in love with the bab—

Me:

I would just like to take a second to thank every single fanfiction writer who’s ever published a fic. In the last 3 weeks, I’ve read over 890,000 words of fanfiction while in quarantine. I know legally, fanfiction writers are not considered “essential” but let me tell you: they are essential to me. Essential to my sanity, my wellbeing, my happiness. Fic gives me so much joy and such a love for the world and the people in it, and fic writers don’t ask for anything in return, except occasional engagement. So from the bottom of my heart: thank you fic writers. Thank you for keeping me company during this time of isolation. Thank you for writing stories that give me hope and take my mind off of my anxiety. Thank you for making me laugh even when I don’t think it’s possible. Thank you for giving me something to be excited about when it feels like the world is falling apart around me. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
