That feeling when you have to spell words out slowly while writing in cursive because you never do it anymore and are used to typing everything lol

Poppy: So who should we call?

Casteel: I’d call Kieran, but I feel safer in jail

I think it's pretty amazing that in the end, Will Herondale, the boy who loved nothing more than a good story, literally haunts the entire TSC narrative as The Story. He's everyone's favorite story, whether it's Tessa and Jem who love him or Shadowhunter society looking back on their heroes. Will literally loved stories so much he became one.

when a morally grey character with a traumatic past meets someone who makes them believe they are capable of loving & being loved thus starting the engine for a new ship that will consume my life for years to come

Herondales be like

„It‘s me, hi, I‘m the problem, it‘s me“

agreed

when tessa finally writes her memoir there's going to be a section called "the boy with the dragon tattoo"

and jem is going to think its a banger

truth

the fact that kanej is actually just 'i would kill for you' (inej) x 'i would stop killing for you' (kaz) is so beautiful i want to cry

it's a forever thing

thought about jem and will yesterday, thought about jem and will today, will think about jem and will tomorrow

[astra-nautical]

will and jem naming their first borns after each other will never not be iconic

If I'm being absolutely honest, sole purpose of my life is to earn money and buy books

fuck all romances except whatever that freewheeling bisexual warlock and his shy mortal boyfriend with eyes the precise color of his magic had going on

herongraystairs never had one bad track

"You think she's pretty?" Will was surprised; Jem rarely opined on this sort of thing.

"Yes, and you do too."

"I hadn't noticed, really."

"Yes, you have, and I've noticed you noticing." BANGER

“Tessa was only halfway down the corridor when they caught up to her- Will and Jem, walking on either side of her. "You didn’t really think we weren't going to come along, did you?" ICONIC

“Perhaps she's a girl who's fallen madly in love with me and persists in following me wherever I go."

"My talent is shape-shifting, Will, not acting," said Tessa, and at that, Jem laughed out loud. Will glared at him. SURREAL

AND DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON "What you said before, she asked. "That Jace Herondale loves Clarissa Fairchild more than anyone you've ever known except someone - you never finished the sentence. Who was it?"

"I was going to say you and me and Will”

If Julian and Emma didn't get "Parabatai to Lovers" story, Jem and Will would have deserved this one

how do i shut my tear ducts??!!! this is so beautiful

I'm sorry for the following TWP theory.

I'm in a morbid and weird state of mind rn.

I think tsc will end the way it started (chronologically), with Tessa. I have no basis for this except for a feeling. In Clockwork Princess, after Tessa almost dies after Changing into Ithuriel the Silent Brothers say that if she ever turns into an angel again she will not survive. Would that not be the most amazing foreshadowing, years and years in advance?!?!?!?!

I can't remember exactly, but didn't CC say that what they're facing in TWP is the biggest bad yet? So the shadowhunters might need an angel's help but they've used up all of their free favours...

Even though it would be sad, I think at this stage a definite ending would be best for the series and something like this would tie it up really nicely. I love the shadowhunter chronicles with all of my heart but I hope that the last TWP book is the last one because a) I can't take anymore pain and b) my greatest fear is it being ruined by being dragged on forever.

I also think it would be fitting if after all the shadowhunters we know and love are gone, it's Magnus left at the end of the world, the way he always knew it would be.

TL;DR I want Tessa to die at the end of TWP bc of poetic justice and a love of bittersweet endings
