The mere belief that she had been abandoned by Edward and separated from him causes her entire life to come to a standstill. She isn’t just sad over a breakup. She literally stops living.

That is crucial to understand other characters like Marcus, he is not only depressed. LIKE BRO if Bella breaks that much after only a few months without Edward, how must Marcus feel after centuries without Didyme? Especially when we know he only remains with the Volturi because Chelsea manipulates the bonds tying him to them. Without her gift, he likely would have 💀 a very long time ago.

Also the obsession the Romanians have for the Volturi. The Volturi didn’t just take away their kingdom and coven, they also killed their mates, it is only fair that they want revenge now.

New Moon is not about a breakup, it’s about what happens when a bond that was meant to last forever is torn apart. Bella experiences a temporary version of what other vampires have been enduring for centuries.

Also vampires feel even more intensely than humans so if she as a human experiences that level of devastation after being separated from her mate, how unbearable must it be for a vampire?

Because she loves Edward Cullen. Because she is unbearably obsessed with him. Because she is recklessly devoted to him. Because she is hopelessly haunted by him. Because she is embarrassingly fixated on him. Because she is tenderly besotted to him.

I've figured out the color, lighting, and poses for the Twilight Saga!

I'll tweak Jasper a bit (and a few other things) and then get to painting!
