“There is never any need to worry, Mina mine,” said Jem. “Silly melon.”

jem took mina for a picnic in the park, but of course they got distracted by a book tessa had packed for them in the basket and forgot all about the jam sandwiches mina insisted on🙈

He's just too silly not to love.

Thinking about how everything Ty did in LM was to help in the investigation so Mark could stay, and then in LoS he did everything he could to convince Kit to stay, and then in QOAAD he went to so many dark places so he could make Livvy stay. And in the end he lost Kit, just got Livvy partially back and isolated himself in the Scholomance away from his family.

yes its been five years but i am not over emma hallucinating that she severed all parabatai bonds while coming back from thule, just to turn and see jem bleeding as he asks "emma, emma how could you?" i mean WHAT a perfect scene to show how powerful the parabatai bond is. throughout tda the bond becomes an antagonist as julian and emma struggle against it, and its hard to remember that its actually a beautiful way to connect two souls. one of my favorite parts of the shadowhunters books is how cassie shows how powerful and overwhelming platonic love can be, and will and jem are the embodiment of that. the bond isnt just a symbol of their love but the physical manifestation of its endurance, and thats why the seelie queens proposal to break all bonds is so tragic. to take away that kind of connection is sacrilege, even at the cost of romantic love. one is not greater than the other, and thats one of the subtle but beautifully written themes threading through tda.

ty just naturally gravitating towards kit and being near him in any given situation is something that can be so personal,

By the way, I’ll never be shutting up about this scene.

[ofstarsandmoonlightt]

Kit: Jem, I would die for you.

Jem, knowing the Gen Z generation now: You said that yesterday about a potato chip, I'm not that special.

Kit: I'd live for you!

Jem: *choking up* Y-you would?

Octavian means The Eighth. But there are only seven Blackthorn siblings. Do you know what that means? Andrew and Eleanor Blackthorn have considered Emma as one of theirs

"Read that book," Tessa said with a faint smile.

"Saw that movie," returned Kit.

tessa and kit’s movie night together 🍿 the two of them now have a little routine going - seven days to read the book and then at the end of each week they watch the movie together!

I love Kit Herondale. He's fifteen years old. He calls the shadowhunters "stupid hot people". He eats cookies out of spite. He knows how history works. He has existencial crises for breakfast. His brain short circuits when Ty laughs. His professional aspirations reduced to becoming a con man. He has so many grievances against the aforementioned stupid hot people he starts writing down a list. He truly is the character of all times.

i’m at a moment in my life (i have been like this for six years already) where I think about TWP a lot (every single second of the day) and I think I might go crazy (die) if we don’t get knews about the release date soon (tomorrow)
