perhaps, esme anne platt's biggest fault was her curiosity. it made her stick out like a sore thumb. it didn't matter if she was the first to finish her chores, because the upset was in her lollygagging. ethel - esme's mother - particularly grieved this; as the matirarch worried that this would stunt esme's prospects in life. the biggest concern, of course, would be in finding a hardworking husband and bearing his children.

[domestic violence tw] but in truth, marriage was the furthest thing from the young lady's mind. she yearned to head west, maybe to the dakotas or washington state, to become a school teacher. it's at her parents' pleading that she ever settled down with charles evenson. if his age wasn't much to foul, then his pension for violence certainly was. esme knew it was horrid, but she thanked the lord many times over when charles was sent to fight in the great war.

happiness never lasted long however. soon he returned; and even sooner, esme was pregnant. determined to ensure her baby would be safe, esme fled to her cousin's home in wisconsin. though soon her husband found her, which lead her to ashland. she became self sufficient, even becoming a school teacher like she'd always wanted. she felt that maybe she could have it all, even if she pretended to be a widow.

[infant death tw] [suicide attempt tw] so when her son passed away soon after birth, esme was distraught. she had planned to reunite with him in the only way possible. it was then that a doctor saved her. but not just any doctor - a beautiful and kind man she met many years ago.

she never expected to feel happiness again. but through him, they formed a family. it didn't matter if it was of unconventional means, esme would follow the olympic coven anywhere.

charlie swan is a townie through and through. and though he might be happy to call mystic falls his home, he didn't always envision himself planting his roots here. an only child, charlie spent most of his childhood over at billy black's, running around with him, quil atara iv, & harry clearwater. his childhood was a happy one, but he always pictured himself going to his parents' alma mater: washington state.

[parental illness tw] even with an acceptance letter in hand, charlie couldn't bring himself to go. with his parents' health deteriorating, he decided to stay home. though he debated applying for the local university, he chose instead to apply for the local police department. the hours and proximity made it a bit easier to be there for his mother and father.

it was around this time when he met renee. she passed through forks, only staying for a handful of days. yet, he found himself absolutely smitten by her. she was romantic and impulsive. being around her felt like a rush. when she returned, swan convinced her to stay. soon followed a proposal and even sooner they were wed.

[pregnancy tw] for a short while, they were happy. they were overjoyed when renee learned she was pregnant. his life felt full, and then the health of his parents took another shift. between being there for his wife, parents, and working, he felt himself spread so thin. but he tried. when isabella was born, it's like he could feel the center of his universe adjusting once more. he always wanted a big family.

[divorce & parental death tw] when renee left with bella, he didn't try to fight for their marriage. he didn't want to make it hard for the two people he cared for more than anything else. a part of him regrets it to this day. instead, he poured himself into his work and taking care of his parents. however staying in forks no longer felt like an option when his parents passed within six months of each other.

starting anew, he applied for an open position in the mystic fall police department. he climbed until he became a head detective in the small town. when bella moved to town full-time, charlie was thrilled even if he had a difficult time expressing that.

demetri spent his early years in greece, a skilled hunter by his mid-teens. he did so for the needs of his family rather than enjoyment, but he was fond of the solitude it afforded him. not a soul commented on it as long as demetri continued to provide.

he did make one close friendship in his twenties with another man by the name of amun. they would joke and swap stories, usually over a meal that amun would buy demetri. he enjoyed his company, given that he wasn't as loud as many of demetri's family members were. he wasn't aware of what amun truly was nor that he himself was a gifted human. but one night demetri would not come home, and it was a loss that his entire family felt.

when he awoke after being turned, it took demetri sometime to get through his bloodlust. amun was patience though ; he even encouraged demetri to go for humans that had the most pleasant aromas. it was the first step in helping demetri hone in his tracking abilities. eventually, demetri became the most gifted tracker in the immortal world.

this was a gift that amun treasured, but aro coveted. with the help of chelsea, the bond demetri felt with amun was broken. his loyalty shifted and he's been with the volturi ever since.

chance perdomo's voice is what i headcanon for demetri. i imagine he taught himself a british accent because he was bored and he knew it was pleasant on the ears.

wanted connections :

gimme connections with other volturi members please & thanks !

speaking of, he is technically a volturi henchman. maybe your muse has met him in volterra or while dem was traveling for volturi business.

he's pretty bored in forks i cannot lie, my guy. he probably hangs out at the college, coffee shops, diners, pubs, etc. mostly people watching, but also just to blend in. none of the locals have called him out on it ... so anyone want their muse to have an acquaintance that's supposedly an exchange student ?

he likes pretty people, but i won't let him be flirty or cheeky with your muse unless you tell me it's a-okay.

perhaps some antagonist dynamics with some shapeshifters ?

if your vamp muse has it open-ended on who changed them ... 👀
