#King Blackthorn

(To everyone)

Which of you is most likely to want revenge if someone plays a prank on him ?

This isn’t entirely conclusive…but in general this is their stances.

(out of all the characters in tsc i probably relate to ty the most so this was so much fun to create! i love imagining ty’s bedroom and all the bits and bobs he collects)

Friendly reminder that TSC has 23 books, so this means you can read a book every month till TWP comes out and you‘ll have reread the whole series

If I think too much about the parallel of TMI starting with Clary and Simon lining up to enter Pandemonium and Dru and Thais sneaking to NY to the same club but to watch Simon's band play, I start tearing up. Like. This is it. This is the beginning of the end. This really is the last series.

manifesting the Blackthorns have the nastiest, most nauseatingly angsty epic train wreck of a fight in TWP. perhaps in the second book or whenever they all find out about Livvy. like it's awful and you can't look away as they're all at their worst with the people they love the most, who they would do and have done anything for. it's the bloodiest fight any of them have ever been in and there wasn't even any weapons involved, just words they didn't mean and cannot take back. like they all care so much about one another but things have changed and none of them cope with it at all so instead it all just. blows up. like Ty only ever wanted to keep everyone together and go back to how things were, but instead he's the one who inadvertently fractures them; the unavoidabe fate of Blackthorns siblings.

Throwing up, weeping, and dying on the inside, but NoT wItHoUt A tHeOrY.

Now, what I'm thinking is (because of the very fact that I LOVE angst and pain) is that something is going wrong with Ty because of Livvy's disappearance (convince me otherwise). Ty may be growing weaker, or is suffering mentally because of it, and Kit, being a Herondale, is about to go out, get some gear, and do something stupid and life-threatening to fix it. Because I'm guessing this is at a point in TLKOF where the duo have some clue as to where Livvy might be, but they're not sure, and Ty, of course, wants to be sure, so Kit is going out, acting on impulse, and doing this himself. He probably expects to be back by morning, but leaves a soul-crushing note, just in case.

So this is a scene, presumably after the first KitTy kiss, where Kit is leaving Ty quietly to do something which will lead him to almost dying when Ty eventually finds him, and that is where we get this:

"It's a bit ironic, isn't it?"

"What do you mean?"

"All that effort to convince you that I wasn't in love with you, and here I am, dying in your arms."

Prepare to jump off some very tall somethings.

if ty isn't the one initiating the kiss I will rage quit life

Yk what I want for twp? Kit and Ash to have this reluctant siblings dynamic. Lol it’d be so fun, in the beginning they could kinda be untrusting of each other but then they’d have to work together and then they fight like siblings all the time but gradually grow to support each other and all hehe

dru in her happy place - her nose in a good horror book - i think she’s currently reading dracula 🩸

(i’m loving designing bedrooms for our beloved characters! i just know dru would approve of these black mushroom walls and spooky posters)

Upon thought, I definitely think that Kieran is just going to be a dramatic bitch in TWP book 1 and say something like "I, the Last King of Faerie, hereby abdicate to go reside at the Polyamorous Faerie cottage with Mark Blackthorn, Cristina Rosales, and our cats. There are to be... nine cats." (Mark and Cristina gesturing for a lower number from the peanut gallery) "...eight cats" (more gesturing) "...seven?" (Mark and Cristina convening and holding up three fingers) "Ah. Three cats, then. One for each of us."

The Faerie court is screaming, in shambles. "We need a king," they say, but Kieran is not having it. He leaves with Mark and Cristina, but not before pulling six kittens out of his bag and handing them off to interested Unseelies because his partners will only let him have three :/

Look, I may be shocked that the release date of TWP is spring 2026 but at the end of day I think it‘s so important that Cassie takes her time with this. Because I want the plot to be complex, I want the characters to be on point and I want the book to be something we have all been waiting for. And that takes it‘s time. So, yes, I‘m okay with waiting another two years if that means I get to hold a book in my hand that fulfills all my expectations (which I know it will).
