Robert Is Such An Underrated Character

Robert is such an underrated character

"Who would have thought that I could have grown so fond of the fellow," he muttered, "or feel so lonely without him? I've a comfortable little fortune in the three per cents.; I'm heir-presumptive to my uncle's title; and I know of a certain dear little girl, who, as I think, would do her best to make me happy; but I declare that I would freely give up all and stand penniless in the world to-morrow, if this mystery could be satisfactorily cleared away, and George Talboys could stand by my side."

y'all are sleeping on Lady Audley's Secret. this is some peak Victorian Gay Shit™.

Paris really is the Thomastair city. Why were they locked in the sanctuary in the first place? Because the Mortal Sword was in Paris.

Iconic.

Also consider that Alastair has a very dry/sarcastic/cynic sense of humour and that he tends to be a little bit dramatic. I would not expect Thomas to say that he's dying when he is "only" heavily injured because that just doesn't match his personality, but Alastair?

When, however, did Cassie share the snippet? Could it be something that belonged to another book/trilogy and was cut out?

okay so, do y’all remember that one thing that cassie shared with us, that death scene of one of the members of a shadowhunter chronicles gay couple? i don’t remember it word for word, but it goes something like this:

“funny, all that trouble to convince me that you didn’t love me, and here i am, dying in your arms”

the person that is dying then proceeds to kiss each and every one of the others fingers, their last

here’s my theory: it’s thomastair. thomas lightwood dying specifically

now i’m sorry about this, but it makes sense.

hear me out:

1. thomastair still isn’t completely canon, and alastair is spending an awful lot of time trying to convince thomas he doesn’t love him, because he thinks that’s best for both of them

i know that’s flimsy evidence but keep reading

2. if you check the shadowhunters family tree, we see that the rest of the carstairs family are descendants of alastair. i’ve seen a theory similar to this that says alastair dies, but if he does, that’s the end of the other side of the carstairs line aside from jem, and we all know alastair has to have descendants, because emma exists. it could be baby carstairs, but we don’t know that for sure

3. if you also check the family tree, it shows that thomas doesn’t end up with anyone officially. which means either he stayed single or he’s dead. and considering alastair ended up with someone else, it is more likely that thomas is dead than with someone else.

4. finally, thomas’s name is sort of foreshadowing in itself. he’s named after thomas, the mundane that worked for the london institute during tessa will and jem’s story. our past thomas died, and i think this foreshadowing might hint to our thomas dying

so, yeah just had to get that off my chest because it was causing me major anxiety.

feel free to prove me wrong! actually please prove me wrong i don’t want thomas to die :(

but please reference this post if i’m right

Judging from the women I know, men overestimate the degree to which women like a man who has six-pack abs and money and underestimate the degree to which women like a man who is an emotionally tormented sea-captain in the service of His Majesty during the Napoleon Wars. /end ID]

Do you think CC will rewrite the CP2 epilogue after TLH finishes given that some things after Chog already don't match up? Like Barbara being present

She might change some things for when they order a new reprint. Different editions already have different people appearing in the epilogue. My best friend’s version doesn’t have Lucie in it but mine does, for example...

Blood loss? No I know exactly where it is

Did you know that James' last name in the German original is Pimplebottom?😂😂
