OMY! Sethnesmee!!! Years ago, I read a fanfiction... and I had thought that Bella and Alice were lovers. I guess I was reading that between the lines because I was absolutely wrong. The writer of the fanfic told me that Bella and Alice were just best friends... it wasn't a 'love' story... but a 'friend' story... and that Bella was still in love with Edward in her story. I apologized to the author... she said it was no big deal. But it was. I had judged her story from a somewhat judgmental frame of mind. Most Twilight FanFics are love stories... but this author had written a story about friends. There are ALL different types of love besides a romantic love. The love a person has for a friend, parent, or child. You can't always confine love in certain boundaries. I think you have FINALLY won me over, Sethnesmee. Perhaps shifters can possibly imprint on somebody they love very much. Perhaps it doesn't ALWAYS have to be 'romantic' type of imprint. BUT, you'd also have to convince Meyer of this... and you know that she'd say, "No." But I have to confess... I love your theory.
