User blog comment:TeamEdwardFan/Twilight questions I'm curious about/@comment-97.114.132.132-20101121160014

1. When Edward means they bring their strongest quality with them, he means personality wise (Ex. Carlisle's compassion). James may have had such a similair attitude while being human, sadistic, similair to janes but much more in her case. Or he may have just been treated very poorly as a human and now being a vampire, having power, James see's himself as a superior being and treats humans as nothing more then sport. It is mention when humans are changed into vampires they become very attractive, but in James's case he isn't, his looks are average, meaning as a human he was not very pleasing to the eyes (very un-attractive), giving hint of mistreatment as a human.

2. I'm not sure how to answer this question.

3.Yes they do shower. Though it is purely choice, they dont collect dirt the same way humans do and always smell good (sweet vampire smell). Edward is seen in New moon(film) his shirt a messy and torn at some parts and downs the same attire( his clothes). Since the first day he left, and when Bella see's him again in Volteraa eight mybe six months latter she runs up to him and hug's him tightly. Not finding anything different about him. Even thought throughout his absence he has not changed his clothes or showered. The answer is yes they can shower, but it is not necessary (as Edward has shown) for them to shower as it is for humans and other animals.

4. It is hinted in breaking dawn of Renesmee's ability to reproduce, by Leah. She mentions that she is a genetic dead-end thus why she cannot be Imprinted on. And throughout the book it is said that you Imprint with the one who gives you the best chance of reproducing with and again by Sam, he describes the reason of imprinting, as "to produce stronger wolves". Again all these refering to the Imprintee is always one that is capable of and does Reproduce with their Imprinter( giving clues that Jacob's Imprinting on Renesmee will result in their Reproducing, childerin).

5.After being away for so long, He hasn't been hunting, but only a few times when it finally becomes too much (Alice mentiones in New moon, one of his plan's being, hunting in Volterra). He was thirsty. Due to him not hunting very often and waiting for his thirst to return and reach its fore and fianlly hunting. He eventually gained a new Restraint due to this; In those month's. In Breaking Dawn he's distracted by Sex, and not Thirst. Edward when he's not minding his actions he easily loses control of them. Its not her blood he's worried about, Its his "Inhuman strength". He's said before "I always have to mind my actions when i'm with you Bella, i could easily try to touch you face and crush your skull by mistake". She's soft, warm and break-able.
