Now, I've only ever read "Twilight", so I won't pretend I know everything about all this "imprinting" business. But what I do know is pretty weird. Correct me if I'm wrong, but "imprinting" is when a lobo falls for someone and "marks" them in some way, he "claims" them for later, right? So here's my beef - is that what this baby wanted? Come on, she's an infant, how does she, or anyone, know who she's gunna grow up to love? But she doesn't get a choice in the matter - she grows up to pag-ibig Jacob. Done and done. Where's the choice? She's prisoner in a life that her mother/Edward/Jacob/Stephanie Meyer told her was the one she needed to live. Again, I know I might be wrong as I haven't read the book... but still. It seems that most woman in the seris aren't really all that "free". I can really only talk about Bella (because I've only read Twilight, like I said, and she was pretty much the only girl who got madami then ten lines in that book), but she really seemed to do everything she did because of and for Edward, or because Edward sinabi so. Jeez, girl, grow a backbone! Long story short, I hope this baby grows up and her life goes a little something like this... : Bella: Reneesme, come here! Jacob's here! Reneesme: So? Bella: You pag-ibig him! He loves you! Sunshine and mga rosas and tuta dogs! Reneesme: Yeah, but I was going to go out... Edward: You will not go out. You will stay here and see Jacob. Bella: Do as your father says, sweetie. I always do. Jacob: Reneesme! You look lovely! Look, I brought you flowers! Reneesme: Oh... yay... Jacob: So, are you old enough to hook up with yet? Reneesme: Who says I want to hook up with you? Jacob: But... look how pretty I am! And I imprinted you! Bella: It's true, sweetie. You pretty much have to. Reneesme: Eff this. I'm gunna go see what Harry Potter's doing.
