One common theme is the idea of fated love. Since imprinting is often seen as a pre - destined connection in these stories, the characters usually have to navigate this intense, almost unavoidable bond. For example, they might initially resist it due to personal reasons or outside factors like pack rules.
Another theme is the transformation of the human involved. If a werewolf imprints on a human, the human often has to adapt to the werewolf's world. This can include dealing with the werewolf pack, learning about their traditions and powers. It's a journey of self - discovery for the human character as they become part of something they never knew before.
Another theme is destiny. Imprints are sometimes seen as signs of a pre - determined path. Characters might struggle with whether to follow the path laid out by the imprint or to forge their own. This creates a lot of internal conflict in the story. In some fanfictions, the imprint is linked to a grand prophecy that the character is supposed to fulfill.
Another common theme is the struggle against the nature of being a vampire. The imprint might make the vampire question their own instincts and how they interact with the human world. For example, they may have to resist their urge to feed in order to protect their imprinted one. And also, the theme of acceptance. The characters, especially the human, need to accept the situation of the imprint and the presence of vampires in their lives. This can involve dealing with fear, prejudice, and a whole new set of rules.
Love and protection are common themes. The idea of imprinting often leads to a deep - seated need to protect the pregnant character. For example, the male lead may go to great lengths to ensure the safety and well - being of the mother - to - be.
Transformation is a big theme. How the character changes physically and emotionally when they turn into a werewolf is often explored. Also, the concept of the moon is very common. Since werewolves are often associated with the moon, many fanfictions use the moon as a symbol for power, change, or even as a trigger for the werewolf's transformation. There's also the theme of the werewolf's inner struggle, like trying to control their animal instincts in a human world.
One common theme is the struggle with identity. Leah already has her own issues within the pack, and imprinting on Bella adds another layer of complexity to her identity. Another theme is acceptance, both of the imprint itself and of their relationship by the others in their world.
Love is a very common theme. Since the concept of imprinting in Twilight is closely related to a deep, almost fated love, fanfictions often explore the different aspects of this love between Seth and his imprint. For example, how it starts, grows, and overcomes obstacles.
A sense of community is sometimes a theme. Their relationship is not just about the two of them. It can affect the werewolf pack and the vampire - human relationships in the 'Twilight' world. So, how they fit into the larger community while being in an imprinted relationship is explored in some fanfictions.
Love is a very common theme. Since imprinting is such a strong form of connection, the fanfictions often revolve around the deep love between Jacob and his imprint. It's a love that is immediate and unwavering.
The theme of self - discovery is also common. Hermione, for example, has to re - evaluate who she is and what she wants in life because of this new bond with Paul. It changes her perspective on many things, and fanfictions often show her journey of self - discovery through this relationship.
Love is a very common theme. The special love that comes from the imprint is often explored. Another theme is loyalty, as embry's imprint on bella means a deep loyalty towards her.
