You know, I’d never thought I’d stay up late (2AM!) reading Twilight fanfiction. I’ve done it for Harry Potter, but Twilight?
In any case, possible manipulation of Alice’s precognition makes me think of Kavka’s toxin puzzle
In particular, if Bella intends to do something knowing it will trigger Alice to see it in the future, but then the payoff comes through via Alice seeing it… it’s not quite the same setup.
I don’t think this actually occurs in the story up to where I’m currently at (I recall a scene where Bella mentions she’ll do something/say something to Alice, Alice sees it in the future and explains it, Bella questions it, and Alice says that what she saw was what would have happened if she hadn’t seen the vision), but I do wonder if this could apply some limitations in some form - ‘I intend to do X that I really really don’t want to do, but will do it because it will trigger Alice’s vision which will then make it so that I don’t have to do it’.
