Don't mind me crying in the corner after reading the newsletter.

I’m pretty sure if Sona really dies Alastair will be the one to look after the child. Not only because he’s older than Cordelia, but also because in TSC wiki it’s said he’s the ancestor of Emma and had a child:

So, maybe he adopts, or maybe he just raises his sibling (Julian vibes). Thomas of course would be helping him as much as he could. Still I’m hoping Sona doesn’t die because *pain*

Soooo…., does that mean that Alastair also stopped wearing hats outside, merry-thieves style? If so, you could say that he‘s maybe starting to a part of the group, right?

BTW...

do you also think this is, probably, the same scene?

  ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ “Truly, Tom, you have such a way with children.”

Thomas smiled back at [Alastair], stepping closer, and taking his hand.

 “I could say the same about you.”

“I have a way with Zachary” Alastair answered dryly, adjusting his tie, before bumping playfully into Thomas shoulder “So what's this I hear about my husband not wanting to dance with me?”

“I said that your husband could wait for a dance, not that he doesn’t want one!" Thomas retorted affectionately reaching up to cup Alastairs cheek. “There is nothing I would rather do than dance with you.”

“Really?” Alastair leaned forward, until their faces were mere centimeters apart, barely a breathe between them. “Nothing?”

“Nothing without you.”

“Well, unfortunately, I don’t think I want to do anything with you until you take off that overcoat.” Alastair gave the same impish grin as his brother, and, after planting a firm kiss on Thomas face, ducked away, calling back over his shoulder  “You smell like a dead pine tree!” - Thomastair snippet from Christmas Party WIP

I think I've collected all the Chain of Thorns snippets of the past week posted here. Let me know if I miss any!

PROLOGUE

Later James could only remember the sound of the wind. A metallic scream, like a knife drawn across a shard of glass, and far below that the sound of howling, desperate and hungry.

He was walking along a long and trackless road: it seemed no one had come before him, for there was no marks on the ground. The sky above was equally blank. James could not have said if it was night or day, winter or summer. Only the bare brown land stretching before him, and the pavement- colored sky above him.

after reading that COT snippet i am 150% sure that matthew is drinking behind cordelia’s back. AINT NO WAYYYYY. this is some jem carstairs bullshit where he wants to enjoy their time together in paris so he’s drinking so he won’t get any withdrawals and can be happy w cordelia. i will die on this hill.

The fact that he said “set fire to my books” is the biggest declaration of love ever

“You cannot hurt yourself, Daisy. You must not. Hate me, hit me, do anything you want to me. Cut up my suits and set fire to my books. Tear my heart into pieces, scatter them across England. But do not harm yourself."

CHOT theory time!

This is for all the people who read the first chapter on CHOT

Spoilers Ahead:

So I was thinking about Ariadne and how she found information her father had written about the Herondales and Lightwoods. And how her mother acted when she was in Maurice’s office: no longer warm like she was earlier. I think this confrontation will end one of two ways:

1. Ariadne’s mother kicks her out of the house. Either as punishment for snooping and seeming “untrustworthy”, or bc Ariadne defends her friends against her parents’ prejudice. OR

2. Ariadne chooses to leave the house on her own accord. She’s lonely and her mother is hostile, so why should she stay?

Either way, that brings her to Anna’s doorstep because she feels she has nowhere else to turn. She can’t go to the Institute bc that would look bad on her family and she still cares about them. So she goes to Anna, who ultimately lets her in bc of the information Ariadne has. And then they’ll rekindle their relationship after some angst and tension

What do we think?

Tagged by @vollzz thank you very much! :3

My words: glisten, linger, hope, and stare.

I'll be using Reclaim for this!

Glisten:

None found.

Linger:

Quin lingered in front of Ms. Fallow’s door. Taking a deep breath, she knocked. “Come in!” Ms. Fallow’s cheery voice rang from inside the room. She stepped inside and blinked at the state of disarray. Clothes were strewn across every available surface in an array of different colors, some much more vibrant than others. Ms. Fallow looked up from attempting to straighten a pile. “Quirina!” She came over to stand beside her, surveying the mess with a hand on her hip. “It was much more organized earlier this afternoon.” She said sheepishly and Quin chuckled. 

Hope:

"Xiren won't let us go easily." He turned, eyes moving upward. Tainu was perched on the edge of the balcony overlooking the stairs, legs dangling over the drop. Hands gripping the banister on either side of him he gazed down at Auden. Looking absolutely at ease despite the height. "I hope you know that." Tainu continued, voice flat. Auden grinned. "Sweet Reema, you really inspire confidence, don’t you?" Auden teased as he continued up the stairs. Tainu's expression didn't change.

Stare:

Reed was grabbing the arm of a hooded individual, someone she didn’t recognize. Their head turned to look at her as they were pulled down the hallway.  Black lines ran from his eyes and down his face. Spots littered his head. Quin stared into the face of a Cita, one of her kind. He was expressionless as he glared back at her. Then he was pulled away down the hall.

Tagging (No pressure!): @lorenfinch, @daughter-of-inklings, and anyone else who'd like to try! :3

Your words: soft, knock, promise, and gold.

Alastair: "Do you realize we're under mistletoe?

Thomas: "Yes...(?)"

Alastair: "we'd better have this 'heat' argument in the carriage"

Thomas *yeah, what could possibly happen!*: "I guess you are right"

Hmmm I’ve decided that cassie dabbled with crack today and went on twitter right after
