i'm rereading clockwork angel rn, and i completely forgot how tragic jessamine is (we're gonna ignore the racist comments for now, cc defiantly did). she grew up in a nice home, with loving parents, aware of the shadowhunters and of the fact that her parent willingly left them, and that their families cut all contact (very culty btw). and then her family dies, and the only people willing to take her are the people her parents left. and when she gets there, she is constantly belittled and chastised because she doesn't want that life, but she has no other choice because she's a woman. of course, she's gonna be bitter. of course she'll love the first man who'll offer her freedom from the place she hates. and with all of that context, her ending is actually incredibly cruel. she dies in the place she hated and is now stuck being the gurdian to this place as "penance." it's just... so sad

unhinged tsc plotlines/lore i still think about:

man's demon fetish dooms next generations

guy helps situationship ressuscitate his sister. then gets rejected and moves to another continent

depressed teenager sings a song about demon stds and STILL gets the girl

regular boy gets turned into a RAT. and KIDNAPPED by VAMPIRES.

after participating in attempted genocide, married couple is handed control of local government headquarters/orphanage

straight love burns down a STONE CHURCH. STONE.

fairy enthusiast has reverse fairy harem

immortal cat hates everyone but a dying teenager

woman marries dead husband's bsf

formerly-dead woman's emotional instability causes war

london boy kills the mother of demons with a gun

local man keeps an angel hostage

and that's all for now

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the BEST fictional character I have ever had the pleasure of knowing

Will Herondale is truly so so special to me 🥹 let us celebrate him today 🩷

[dancing-in-the-rain-1104]

Oh to be living in the 20th century and to experience the Christmas ball at the London institute, hosted by Tessa and Will Herondale

MERRY LONDON INSTITUTE CHRISTMAS PARTY DAY

I can‘t explain it but Cortana is such a girl‘s girl

[dancing-in-the-rain-1104]

Bad news for the haters of the world: Clary Fray is based as fuck. Literally everything she does is justified, and frankly I would have been worse.

*SEASONS OF SHADOWHUNTERS SPOILERS*

Oh my sweet boy 😭😭😭🩷🩷🩷 I love him so bad

[dancing-in-the-rain-1104]

This.

One shadowhunter character I do not play about is Will, like I’m sorry nooooo oneeee gets him like I do. Like I will defend him to THE MOON AND BACK!!!

[dancing-in-the-rain-1104]

Tessa turning herself into a literal ANGEL is not spoken about enough and I demand we appreciate her badass abilities more.

[dancing-in-the-rain-1104]

I think often of the fandom preference for Will over Jem. To each their own, but I feel like people just don't understand how compelling the narrative of Jem Carstairs is. This is someone who embodies the perfect blend of vulnerability and strength. Resilience in the face of his circumstances and remains kind and almost gentle-spirited despite it all. Unwavering loyalty in seeing the truth of the soul in his friend even when his friend isn't being his true self. His journey is one of courage, love, and enduring hope. People who claim that he is a boring character show me that they just don't understand him.

"we need more complex characters" y'all can't even handle a 17 y/o Julian Blackthorn.

[dancing-in-the-rain-1104]

As a Certified Will Herondale fan, I can tell you with the utmost certainty and clarity that Sophie could have and should have been way, way, way ruder to him actually
