I'd love to have Jasper's talent. I could make the people I love feel happy, and the ones I dislike feel sad. Yeah, that is evil now that I think about it. =(

Edward's power is definitely useful, but it would be annoying. You would never be alone with just your own thoughts because subconsciously you'd be reading everyone elses. It would be horrible if you were in a gigantic crowd. I think my head would explode. And sometimes people don't always think good things about you, so my confidence would plummet badly.

I thought Zafrina's gift was really cool. Wouldn't it be cool if the wolves had special gifts too?

i'm still trying to understand the last part - how did Bella finally managed to do what she did? the whole bring-out-the-old-memories-out-from-her-head thing? did she apply the sameforce for the shield as for this one?
The thing with Bella is that even when she was a human she had this shield protecting her mind and just didn't know it. Edward thought maybe he couldn't read her mind because she was on a different wavelength than everyone else (like she was on am and he was only hearing fm or something like that) but that turned out to be not true. So when Bella became a vampire and became aware of the shield she realized she could control it. If she mentally moved the shield her mind became as accessable as anyone elses is to Edward. I hope that helps.
well hey, thanks for clearing that up! yea, it does help, and it makes more sense than the one i gave myself. haha!

hey Genevieve, um, i think talents more like Edward's or Alice's or Zafrina's. the ones you mentioned about the wolves, well those are in general, like vampires, they can smell blood flowing in your veins, or hear your heart beating, or can hear voices distances away. i hope that make sense, yes? :)

When I first heard about Bella's abilities - we can't escape from spoilers, after all - some people discribided as "Some sort of Lily Potter's shiled". But it's so much more than that. Not thatg Lily's protection to her son wasn't cool. But Bella's was something else. So cool to read about little Jane's frustrate attack! That certainly taught her a little lesson.

I'm curious about something. Did Victoria had some special ability? Because in the vampires index she's indicated as gifted, but I don't recall what kind of power she had.

i asked this before as well, someone told me its her ability to escape. something edward mentioned somewhere about 'she has this uncanny ability to escape..'
vampluv78 wrote:when bella extended her shields to include everybody why couldn't edward hear her thoughts?
i think it said somewhere near the end, that when she extends her shield, its always the shield protecting her AND the rest, but never just protecting the rest alone. that was why she had such a hard time trying to take the shield away from her due to survival instincts so as to allow edward inside her mind at the end.
hope i made sense?
