So I am revisiting the Twilight movies as an adult, and I just fully realized something while also thinking about Soul Bonding fanfics. We all know Soul Binding is described as an intense spiritual and emotional connection between people, and I believe it can happen with platonic soulmates too. So, what does this have to do with Twilight? Well, I’m thinking about the vampires right now. We all know Carlisle turned everyone, right? What if, when he turns, say, Esme, he feels a Soul Bind with her? Think about it more deeply — when she was a teen, she broke something, and her mother took her to Carlisle. He saw her then for the first time, and years later, when she was in the morgue, he identified her and turned her. That has to be some kind of Soul Binding, right? I could be wrong — I’ve never read the books, only seen the movies. Also, on that note, let’s consider the werewolves. Sam imprints on Emily — could that be Soul Binding? Also, though he has this kind of platonic father/son relationship with Edward, he can sense when he’s distressed or something, which is why I mentioned platonic soul binding as well.
