-It's Been My Honor

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

Spent my entire life trying to not grow into being my mother and being my own person to talk with my father once and realizing that we're the same person. We talk the same way, use the same mannerisms, gesture the same way when we're talking, and look the same despite having spent over a half of my childhood not seeing him.

Don't I just LOVE genetics?

Also, why is he like a grown ass man with a rocker beard, tattoos, black clothes and rings and a bike, but he somehow speaks like me? Sir? What sort of joke is this? You couldn't give me your bike? You had to give me your round ass face, knowing I can't grow a cool beard?

Mkay...

people: do you like (character)?

me, a little unhinged about said character: He’s fine. He’s alright.

“is this character good or bad” “is this ship unproblematic or not” “is this arc deserving of redemption or not” girl…

I'll go ahead and say it. THERE IS NO BETTER DUO THAN THE ONE OF A SECRETLY POSSIBLY DANGEROUS MAN BUT SUPER CALM AND CHILL AND HIS BATSHIT MURDEROUS (extra points if she's a vampire) AND EXTREMELY DISTURBING DARK POETIC LOOKING GIRLFRIEND.

And that was the presentation on how most of how my book will 100% evolve. "I will kill you. One day. But right now I really like you. Also, you couldn't hurt a fly, although you def look like you could."

I love when Simon tells jace that he treats Alec like a lap dog. because it’s honestly the truth. Jace expects Alec to drop everything and help him. he doesn’t care about Alec and Izzy who have been his family and friends for years. it’s all clary clary clary. Jace doesn’t even think about how this affects Alec or cares that his family is in trouble for all the unapproved missions on behalf of clary.

no wonder Alec doesn’t trust her. she comes out of nowhere, demanding this and that as if she owns the place. running missions that could get everyone killed. doesn’t understand that the mortal cup literally affects everyone, not just her.

Jace literally throws Alec to the side all for a girl he met five seconds ago because “they’re meant to be together”. Alec deserved so much better than what jace gave him. Jace really expected Alec to not have any feelings and do whatever he wanted him to do. it’s probable proof when he says “Alec will be here.”

they should’ve let that greater demon have jace lmao

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

(if you're not that person. I'm sorry<3)

Jem and his underrated humour

Stephen: Swear as in promise.

Michael, about Valentine: Have you ever looked at an authority figure in your life and thought, "Wow, I respect a well-grilled hot dog more than I respect you?" ———————————————— Lucian: Your friends are counting on you! Valentine: Well that's their falt. I've carefully cultivated a persona that screams, "You're on your own!" ————————————————

Robert: What the hell are you smiling for?

Valentine: Am I not allowed to be happy?

Amatis: Of course you are… it’s just that you being happy, usually means someone’s lost their life… or a limb.

————————————————

Celine, first joining: I know we technically have permission to do this, but this all feels highly illegal.

Stephen: That’s half the fun of it.

————————————————

Stephen: People say I have a unique way of lighting up a room.

Amatis: It’s called arson and those people are witnesses.

————————————————

Celine: Robert and I are getting closer. The other day he gave me half his sandwich.

Robert, whispering to Maryse: I mistook her for a garbage can

Robert: I tried to write “I’m a functional adult” but my phone changed it to “fictional adult” and I feel that’s more accurate.
