Bella in New Moon: *cracks skull open and is excessively bleeding from head* haha cool 😎

Bella in Eclipse: *cuts whole arm with rock* Here’s my blood!! Vampires come get me!!

Bella has issues with blood only in the first book, at the end of Twilight she’s bitten by James and his venom is going through her system for awhile before Edward sipped her like a Capri-sun

After that the bite was always colder and looked the same as all of Jasper’s bites, she mentions this in Eclipse I’m like 90% sure and I think that’s because the venom changed the area to be more vampiric

So what if Edward didn’t get all of it? What if there was no longer enough venom left to make the change but just enough to do some things, like change her skin in that area and make blood more appealing? And over time it becomes more acute especially with any venomous saliva she might be swapping with Edward later making more accumulate in her system

me:

She had the opposite reaction. Instead of running, she lingered, drawn to what should frighten her. How could I protect her from myself when neither of us wanted that?

edward, one page later:

Suddenly, as she ate, a strange comparison entered my head. For just a second, I saw Persephone, pomegranate in hand. Dooming herself to the underworld. Is that who I was? Hades himself, coveting springtime, stealing it, condemning it to endless night. I tried unsuccessfully to shake the impression.
