It's The “ugh, Men” And Then I Drastically Fall For Every Boy With Pretty Eyes That Looks Like He

wanna know what stuck with me more than janus wanting clary back? the fact that he wanted alec just as much. in every universe, doesn't matter if he's the good hearted jace we know or if he's dark or if he's evil, his heart knows alec is his parabatai. we should talk more about these two

Fuck writers using AI. Be for real right now, if you're not capable of using your own mind and words to create what you want, don't write. I've met people who use it as a method to maybe get names. Fine...to a certain degree, that is.

What happened to writers being tortured souls, carving every inch of themselves out to pour it, to bleed on paper, more modernly, on a document? What happened to talent, to needless urge to write the most beautiful poems ever and put them on a paper for people to marvel at?

Now brainless morons are using an app that sells off plagiarism to write books? If you can't do it, don't do it. Centuries of marvelling authors, authors that writers nowadays use as a model of what they want to achieve, getting replaced by freaking ChatGPT? Shame on you.

Dishonour on you, dishonour on your family, dishonour on your cow!

Still Holding On, Thanks to You 💔🍉

Each day we wake up, not knowing what will come next. 25 family members lost, our home destroyed, our future uncertain.

But today, I remind myself—we’re still here. And thanks to the generosity of kind people, we’ve raised $1,580 so far.

It’s not enough to rebuild, but it’s a reminder that people still care. And that means everything.

💙 Please, if you can, help us take the next step. Even a share means the world to us.

Ok, now hear me out. The kids by Charlotte Cardin is SO Lightwood family coded it might as well be their motto. There. I'll die on that hill.

We're holding on to Past grey lost blue And I hate you, you know Wish that we could control Our urges to hold Each other again But now I'm looking across Lines wrote and lost I can translate, you know Burnt before it was lit You found a lovely bad trip And you ruined us Oh, you wrecked us

Too bad for the kids downstairs The constant bad luck The place by the window

Still holding on We both know you're wrong But your face says all good You've always been such a runner Thought you'd leave me sooner But you're still down here With the girls and the kids And the poor and the ill And with me babe With the girls and the kids And the poor and the ill

Be so fr rn. This is THE Maryse and Robert song if there ever was one.

Here's my head canons that literally nobody asked for, but I don't care because I spent all of last summer thinking nobody was invested in the circle and I have pent-up fangirl energy 😌:

Robert is a fictional adult who needs some love: Is he one of the oldest? Yeah. But since he got abused by his dad and he felt like a disappointment for not being able to bear the runes (allergy) he's an insecure little bun, k? K. Also Maryse absolutely understands that, and although she's like super cold and icy and murderous she has a big heart (she's a silver girl, k?) and is always there for him at his lowest. Also, screw Shadowhunters and their smooth skin. Him and Alec? SCARS. That's it. Scars, actually, scars on all Shadowhunters, and also on Maryse, one that runs from the bottom of her ear, down her neck to her collarbone. How? (she's a Shadowhunter, ppl)

Maryse's mom was TRASH, and she has a fear of commitment: Why do I say that? IDK. I like characters with family issues (y'know Robert's got it w his dad, she as it w her mom). AND. She felt alone, which is how Valentine got to her. She was really close to her brother, and him getting stripped of his runes and exiled left her alone with parents that didn't care for her and too many close friends because of her cold (sarcastic queen) attitude. At the end of the day, she felt abandoned and, leaving her with a fear of getting close to anybody because they might leave her as well.

Miss ma'am passed her absolute need to perfect to Alec: If you've read TMI it's hard for people to not know that Alec is definitely the fake it til you make it, wake in the same shoes until you bleed and work on it until it glistens. So while I do firmly believe that he got some of Robert's personality, he did get his loyalty and bravery? From Maryse, all together with the constant urge of being perfect, which she got from her parents' constantly pushing her to be perfect and her need to prove the man in the academy that she deserved her place there.

Maryse and Robert might have been in love, they might not have known what that was: They both come from pretty toxic families where love was ehm...not a thing? So when they met, it was obvious that all these intense feelings of "I would kill for you" would get confused (maybe) for love. I do still that they fiercely loved each other like one loves its first partner. Deeply ad burning, that in their hearts, they were each other's other half. But I do also think that them insisting on staying when that love melted into pure raw platonic love (care? Do remember Maryse cried at his funeral and Michael's ghost touched her shoulder). Which brings me to my next point.

Michael and Maryse: Friends. That's it. The typical gay and bi power friendship.

Celine/ Maryse/ Michael: Trio of friends. Izzy/Jace/Alec but a cultist version of it.

Waywood?: Real. Maryse's relationship w Robert had faded into a pure friendship which lead to him realizing that he was in love w Michael (whether he acted on it or not, that idk)

Eliza and Maryse?: A thing. Hell yeah, she did act on it, which leads me to the belief that Maryse did know that Robert was in love with Michael and that he knew that she was in love with Eliza. Think of it, a lavender marriage out of fear of being stripped of their runes by the clave.

No, I will not shut up about the fact that Will Solace is still an underrated character. That Alec and Isabelle deserve a whole ass saga about their childhood. That I need a book about The Circle in its youth. That Percy is one of the few likeable mc I've ever read.

AND that if I read one more romance fantasy book where all I hear is how "small" she was and how "fragile" she was and how "petite" she was (looking at you Violet Sorrengail) I WILL give up on it. Write me some charachters like Drusilla Blackthorn, give some diversity m'am, look at Clary, Emma, Drusilla, Izzy, Cristina, Anna, Sophie, Charlotte and Diana miss they're all different and REALISTIC.

And if I'm being annoying with tsc, look at Annabeth, Reyna, Hazel, Piper, Silena, Bianca even Nazeera from Shatter me... Girl it ain't that hard to make things realistic. Cause I'm telling u right now that there is no way that any girl relates to miss's small petite waist and her fragile frame and yet she still somehow had hulk strength (ehem Juliette Ferrars/Ella Sommers)

The amount of hate Lucien Vanserra gets for being interested in getting to know the person his fucking omnipotent god decided was his perfect match is fucking wild to me.

Like yall want this man to be evil so bad and he's literally just trying to figure out who he is now that everything he thought he was is crumbling under his feet. He's literally coming through again and again for Feyre and her friends despite going through a goddamned identity crisis that's lasted like four books at this point. Yall want this man to be evil and he's only ever been described by literally everyone as "loyal" and "a good male" and "not evil". Yall want this man to be evil and he was willing to die/be tortured to protect Feyre ALONE at least three times.

But because this man was given a mate-something he's been raised his whole life to revere and dream about and want-and he is interested in *checks notes* getting to know her, he's now evil. He's now going to go against five books of character development and become a betrayer and/or unreasonably violent?

Like if you don't ship them that's absolutely fine. I think the concept of them not having romantic feelings and navigating the bond on a purely platonic sense is interesting (though I don't think it's gonna happen given Sarah J Maas' track record) and is something that could make for an interesting story but like......I'm sorry but bending backwards to try and paint Lucien as EVIL????

Have we read the same books?

I like to laugh at it as if it's not literally a rule in my life by now 🎀✨

god sends his most craziest, narcissistic emotionally unavailable manwhores to attachment issues, inferiority complex suicidal girls.

This is what you're missing. You know who you are. READ.
