shut the hell up this is one of the funniest things Magnus has ever said 😭
Ok, now hear me out. The kids by Charlotte Cardin is SO Lightwood family coded it might as well be their motto. There. I'll die on that hill.
We're holding on to Past grey lost blue And I hate you, you know Wish that we could control Our urges to hold Each other again But now I'm looking across Lines wrote and lost I can translate, you know Burnt before it was lit You found a lovely bad trip And you ruined us Oh, you wrecked us
Too bad for the kids downstairs The constant bad luck The place by the window
Still holding on We both know you're wrong But your face says all good You've always been such a runner Thought you'd leave me sooner But you're still down here With the girls and the kids And the poor and the ill And with me babe With the girls and the kids And the poor and the ill
Be so fr rn. This is THE Maryse and Robert song if there ever was one.
alec and clary's friendship has truly come a long way considering that it started by alec insisting a demon committed suicide just to deny the fact that clary killed it
when you show up to the insane parabatai competition but will “jem is my great sin” herondale and jem “my will, my rebellion, mine forever” carstairs are already there
Today I found myself reading TMI again after being done with studying (ugh, whoever invented exams can burn in hell) and I feel like I keep running out of ways to explain how incredibly copy pasted and close I feel to Alec. Like, yes sure, I love Izzy with every inch of my soul and don't I wish I was like her and Magnus is just such a me vibe in my best days. But Alec has always been my focal point every single time I read Cassandra Clare, and every time I expect to find myself being like "oh shut up" like I often find myself doing when Jace talks, even Clary sometimes, but I just don't.
I find it so unbelievable how the first time I read City of Bones I was around three years younger than Alec in that book and I just couldn't help but think "He's real". Because miss m'am Izzy was killing demons in high heels at sixteen and Jace probably had more girlfriends than I have hair on my head and there was Alec. Trying to beat sense into them, being discarded by Jace the moment Clary came into view. His only friends being his own sister who was his complete opposite and his parabatai who way too foused on being cool than on his own struggles, him trying to hide himself from the Clave out of pure fear that they would exile him and just abandon him in a world full of demons as a mundane like they did to his uncle.
He was the secondary character. The fifth wheel of the cart, as we say in my family. And I could relate to that, because being on the outside and looking on the inside, being aware that you're not enough is something that i've found myself doing all my life ever since I was a toddler. Not too fun. Not too cool. Not too smart. You're just in the middle of it all. Never enough to stand out. Just a blank paper. And I just felt this ache in my heart when I finished that book years ago and I still feel it every time and this boiling rage knowing that this man stood bravely against it all. The fact that he played such an important role in the war, almost as important as Jace and he was still seen as "Jace's parabatai", when this man genuinely changed the law and rebuild every belief of the Clave to make it more humane.
There's just enough words in the dictionary to how many levels I love Alec and to how many levels I am grateful to Cassie for writing him, because who would I violently and brutally relate to if it wasn't Alexander Gideon Lightwood, the Inquisitor of the Clave and the man who loved a man so much he changed the world for him and Magnus's archer boy.
This is what you're missing. You know who you are. READ.
(if you're not that person. I'm sorry<3)
“and the sun has come up in the east” he was so funny without even trying
when they tell you you have to sacrifice sleep to watch matthew daddario perform
I don't think I can explain how much I long for Cassie to write a saga, or at least a few books about the Circle.
Give me the JUICE. I NEED TO KNOW. Specially about Maryse my girl and Robert, like I just KNOW that they were probs a power couple before becoming such a toxic relationship (maybe before Robert and Michael turned back to back)
I need to know if Maryse and Michael were on good terms (friends even?). I NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT MARYSE, PEOPLE.
We get this complex woman with such a strong character development, and you're not going to tell me anything about her backstory????
Was she like, Izzy on the looks, Alec on the personality? Because otherwise I'm just stuck w my head canons that her parents were trash, she was a crazy badass warrior w a very twink bf (ehem Robert) that made some horrendous choices by being charmed off by Valentine. Also in my mind her and Celine were good friends (sorry not sorry) 😌 (Stephen didn't deserve nor Amatis nor Celine. can't hate him, tho...). And that maybe her and Jocelyn had a maybe Alec x Clary like relationship (city of bones typa shit)
Just realized I haven't talked about tsc in a whole day. I'm so disappointed in myself. Does that mean...? Spamming my account with posts about it? YES.
Just a writer who loves too many fandoms. But who can blame me? I'm a sucker for art, classic and for charachters with a bow that have as many issues as me, 'cause what is life if you don't have a hoard of suffering archers behind u? My main fandoms are TMI (the mortal instruments), TDA, TLH and any artwork created by my one and only Queen Cassie, LOTR, Dune, Percy Jackson, The Dragon Prince bcs I would die for Ruthari, Brooklyn 99, ACOTAR, Iron Flame, TVD, GG (xoxo), and any form of classics (Razumikhin's, Raskolnikov's and Holden's love child) and probably many more fandoms that I can't remember rn but will once I close this.All hail Lana del Rey, KoL, The Smiths, Fiona Apple , TV girl, Marina and all my underrated bby's who should be at the top.xoxo
