sending what was going to be a text post as another ask. just because I can be cruel like that and sometimes the best way to get through the brainrot is to dive right in and get it all out of the system.

I do reckon for all the inconsistencies in his self expression and behaviour and whatever (which are things I can and have hypothesised reasons for) one thing that is constant about James in all the stories he shows up in are his insecurities. Around worrying other people. Thinking that in his existence and circumstance he’s forcing them to love him when they would rather be free, rather than what he perceived as burdened. Feeling different, other, outcast, damned by his demon powers that no doubt began from feeling different and incapable because of his neurodivergence. And he’s tried being a loner. He’s tried being loyal to his family and friends. He’s tried letting go of expectation and embracing being the person he fears he is. He’s tried living out his morals and deciding he’s going to be fine and a model citizen and no one needs worry themselves about him. He’s tried saving the world: in reckless ways, in thought-through ways, in the end he’s only 17 and is surrounded by and loved by people who prove time and again he can be honest with them and loving him is something they do gladly. It might not be the most explicit arc and I might have pulled it together from the pieces we were given that don’t always obviously fit together but to me if you dig deep for the consistencies they’re there, they’re stopping him from figuring out who he really is, but there is something of a cohesive story somewhere in it all

i think this is a really interesting perspective to look at james and how he varies from story to story, but to me, the more i think about it the less sense it makes.

actually to me there is no arc at all. think of the earliest appearance of james (age wise, other than being an infant):

at the shadowhunter academy he is extremely introverted and insecure, he is constantly described as incredibly awkward and clumsy with words & people. alright, this can change over the course of four years, of course it can especially with such a constant & supportive family & friends, but here’s another thing:

his incredibly complex relationship with will, the expectations people have in him for being will’s son which he resents. they pressure him and quite frankly make him distant internally himself from his farther, while also having so much love and admiration for him at the same time (i love their dynamic and jamie’s relationship to will in tftsa)

these two aspects are so huge and monumental in nbs, to me they were setting up a big arc of self acceptance for james during tlh.

enter tlh, and james is everything he wasn’t in nbs: confident, stunningly gorgeous, london’s most eligible bachelor, a smooth tongue and popular.

now, don’t get me wrong! i love that for him, he’s not actively hating himself and being very insecure, good for him!

but GOD his entire arc was SKIPPED. everything that made him, on his own, as a person, even remotely interesting, complex and relatable was just resolved between tftsa and tlh.

i was so looking forward to his inner conflict about himself as a herondale, him being his farthest son but somehow not living up to it, him being awkward and having a hard time making friends, not being as sharp tongued and quick as the other herondale boys, just for CC to sweep in and make a barely character out of some dull middle ground between jamie in the short stories and her carbon copy idea of a herondale.

i want the old jamie back and i mourn the potential he’s had for tlh that was just skipped every day.

pretty sure I said months ago but still since cooking with etho canonically airs on a different channel than candlemaking with etho I love imagining just tons of public access channels entirely staffed by the clones. 3am infomercial type programming. you get grossed out by the "sandwich" being made so you flip channels and it's the same guy but with weird eyes making pottery in complete silence
