I found this on reddit and couldn't disagree with it. At first I wondered how it happened that Horace did not belong to the circle and was not close to Valentine. Now I understand that Horace a pathetic and boring parody of Valentine. Morgenstern would just laugh in his face if he met him.

The way this format can apply to the villains in each trilogy means a lot to me:

Maybe it isn't Zara's fault after all. Maybe it is because she was brought up into the ideals and opinions of the Cohort. Maybe the idea that Shadowhunters need to be conservative and the hate for downworlders are things she purely adopted from her father. For all we know her mother could have been killed by a rogue downworlder and that might have caused his hatred for them. Maybe she just hasn't ever analyzed what is right and is wrong and has had her moral compass created by someone else. One thing we do know about her is the fact she feels the need to be the best and she will do anything for it, even if it's not right or even legal. But yet again, that could be because she has learned that Shadowhunters as a kind need to be the best. What I'm saying is that we don't know if Zara just doesn't have an opinion of her own or if something has happened (other than being brought up by her father) that has caused her to support the cohort.
For all we know she could get a redemption arc in the wicked powers much like Jessamine did (yk, excluding the death part) even though I don't think that idiotic backstabber could ever learn to be open-minded. But maybe it just isn't her fault.( I want her dead.)

Does anyone else just say "the clave" and think of the annoying stupid old clave and go like "uGH" and then remember we have Alec as Consul and Diego as inquisitor and everything is going well? Or is it just me?

My Opinions On Zara Dearborn
In The Dark Artifices, Zara serves as one of the main antagonist, along with her father Horace Dearborn. While there are multiple scenes in TDA (especially in QOAAD) that show scenes between Zara, Horace, Manuel, etc, I wish that Zara was a more developed antagonist. All that we as the reader really know about her is that her mom died when she was young and she was raised by her father, she (along with her father and the Cohort) is a conservative Shadowhunter, wanting to maintain already present ideas (the ID papers for downworlders for example), she ultimately wants shadowhunters to be able to be superior over downworlders.
Also to clarify, I DON'T LIKE ZARA.

i am currently experiencing the craziest high a human being can achieve just sitting on her couch i've just been taking deep breaths trying to chill out for ten minutes it's terrible anyway i need to Post about my friend alec. first of all he was there for me in eighth grade do not ever underestimate our bond i know i don't talk about him much these days and you might believe i don't really care about him but you have got to understand that my history with this fictional man runs deeper than any of yours and even when i had nothing i had alec. the bond a gay middle schooler who reads fantasy has with alec lightwood is completely indescribable unless you also experienced it but like. liken it to whatever you guys have with the angel from supernatural maybe idk. anyway the thing that has always gotten me about alec and magnus is that alec is a shadowhunter yes, but more than that he hates the government always. (i have problems with the show for reasons related to this but i am not talking about freeforms shadowhunters rn she is not my friend ok she is like my occassional late night hookup who hates me but the pussy is insane. sorry for that metaphor) anyway the way that at every turn magnus expects alec to be a Shadowhunter with that shadowhunter sense of duty and loyalty to their government and their way of doing things and their penchant for hero complexes, and at every turn alec is something different. because alec is someone who has experienced so many of the injustices of shadowhunter government and tradition, his parents were in a hate cult that they were manipulated into joining because of the ineffectiveness of their government and their desire to make the world a more just place, and they got out and were punished for it, and by extentsion their whole family was punished for it. because their governemt wants to show that it's all powerful and no one can go against it without facing life altering consequences. alec's best friend was raised by a man who taught him that being a shadowhunter was about hatred for demons, when really it's about love for humanity. alec is surrounded by people who have suffered at the hands of tradition, and he consistently turns away from it and doesn't let it break him or the peeple he loves. being a shadowhunter means having a duty to their cause, but to alec being a shadowhunter is about having a duty to the people he loves. in city of heavenly fire magnus is talking to luke and he says "sometimes it comes down to a choice between saving one person and saving the whole world, and i'm selfish enough to want the person who loves me to choose me. but nephilim will always choose the world" and later in the book when magnus belives he needs to sacrifice himself to save everyone he tells alec not to stay with him, and to go back to the world, and alec says "i don't want the world, i want you" and it makes me crazy and i think about it like once a week every week my whole life. he doesn't want the world! because the world without love is meaningless!! alec is a shadowhunter and he will always be a shadowhunter and a hero but there's no point to being a hero if there's no love... he doesn't care about duty half as much as he cares about love. and that is always what sets alec apart as a shadowhunter and as a leader, in queen of air and darkness (helena this is maybe a spoiler but don't worry about it it's not going to ruin your experience with tda if you know this) he gets voted as the new consul to represent the half of the clave that isn't part of horace dearborn's new hate group (shadowhunters always have hate cults it's like their thing it's like how americans have white supremacists. actually horace and zara dearborn are literally an allegory for trump, remember tda is a book series born out of the trump era, qoaad came out in 2018)
and the crucial thing about alec agreeing to be the consul was that he was NOT going to be a traditional consul. he was never going to do the ceremony and tradition bullshit their society likes to demand from it's government officials, alec saw his father get caught up in shadowhunter government and he watched him die for it and he would never involve himself in those traditions. he hates the inhumanity of shadowhunter tradition, that is literally the entire point of tmi and clary, the entire plot of those 6 books is that a group of young peple who fucking hate the government are instrumental to saving the world because their ideology directly contradicts the emotionless traditions of their leaders. alec is a leader because he is a revolutionary, not because he is traditional. that's what's so cool about it, he didn't just become the consul. he became the consul of a divided society and he is on the side of everything that is good and right and equal, while the other side wants to hide in tradition and rot away. that is the whole point!!! love is the point!!! being a shadowhunter is about love! they were never meant to be perfect stoic warriors, they were created out of love for humanity, they exist to protect people, to bring some level of peace to the world, and through time they forgot that, and alec (and clary) are the people that lead them back to remembering why they do what they do, why they fight this endless war, why they have to keep doing it. god. just truly one of the characters of all time. i need to just hit post now this is getting crazy

If Horace was copied from Trump, then Valentine was probably copied from Hitler. What did he say? That there is no democracy in the circle? ☠️

Me: *Reading QoAaD*
The Cohort: *does cohorty things*
Downworlders and others who are aware of mundane history: Hey! This is not good! Like at all! This will just get worse! I know this because this has literally happened before and your stubborn refusal to admit that mundane history matters is gonna lead to some really tragic shit!!!
Shadowhunters (who are basically an endangered species rn because of two wars they fought only 5 years ago that happened because they fell for the exact same propaganda from a man just like Dearborn and the Cohort) :*falls for Circle Cohort propaganda*
Shadowhunters: Uhhhh you’re not trustworthy or something…shadowhunters are the best! We could never be wrong!! Let’s continue to scapegoat entire groups of people because we obviously are the only people worth anything at all!!!
Magnus Bane: *the most exasperated and exhausted sigh to ever be sighed*
Me: Wow this book is a great example of why learning from history is important in order to stop it from repeating itself.
Me: *thinks about everything that is CURRENTLY HAPPENING IN THE ACTUAL REAL WORLD RIGHT NOW*
Me: *through tears and gritted teeth* Good thing this book is fictional 🥲

TDA FANCASTS / FACECLAIMS (repost)
I’ve decided to add to the noise with my own content because at this point I’ve seen Froy Gutierrez and Timothee Chalamet fancast for just about every single male TSC character and I think we all deserve some variety. This will probably be followed up with posts for the other series in the near future. I’ve tried my hardest to find people as close as possible to my headcanons, but I feel like 95% of Cassie Jeans art still does the best job at representing what I picture these characters to look like in my head. Feel free to agree or disagree and let me know what your fav faceclaims are 🤗
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Emma Carstairs - Bridget Satterlee (it’s not perfect and personally I still imagine Emma with sharper features, but at least she’s got the brown eyes and Emma vibes)
Julian Blackthorn - Darwin Gray (again pretty much the best I could find, idk why Jules and Emma are so hard to get right)
Cristina Rosales - Natalia Castellar Calvani
Mark Blackthorn - (Young) Gerhard Freidl (look I even added the golden eye😌, he’s def one of my faves with the soft and ethereal vibe he’s got going on)
Ty Blackthorn - (Young) Asa Butterfield (Ty was so damn hard to find, and he def wouldn’t work for grown up Ty in my opinion)
Livvy Blackthorn - (Young) Amalia Zadro (she’s literally so perfect I can’t)
Kit Herondale - Griffin Mark (sorry for the picture quality, he’s a tiktoker and I couldn’t find anything better, but LORD does he look like young Kit)
Dru Blackthorn - (Young!) India Eisley
Tavvy Blackthorn - Random kid I found here
Arthur Blackthorn - Jude Law (just picture him with glasses chilling in an a dusty attic)
Diana Wrayburn - Lehlogonolo Machaba (she’s a South African trans model, I know this is literally just fancasts but I thought it would be nice for proper representation anyways, plus she’s giving off the biggest Diana vibes)
Kieran Kingson - I’m so sorry I can’t find the original image source 😭
Gwyn ap Nudd - Ed Skrein
Annabel Blackthorn - Esme Creed-Miles
Diego Rocío Rosales - Jorge Antonio Guerrero (he def looks too old but otherwise fits well enough)
Jaime Rocío Rosales - Jacobo Cuesta
Manuel Villalobos - Zak Henri
Zara Dearborn - Iris Law (yes the eye colour is off but look at her she’s got just the right energy)
The Unseelie King - Rogier Bosschaart
Prince Adaon - Davidson Obennebo
Divya Joshi - (Young) Shriya Saran
Rayan Madabuchi - Ronald Epps
Anush Joshi - (Young) Jeenu Mahadevan
Ash Morgenstern - (Young) Lucky Blue Smith
Lady Nene - Pauline Darley
Horace Dearborn - Woody Harrelson
If you’re wondering where Malcom, Helen and co. are: they’ll be in extra posts with all the characters who are kind of all over the place. As for Johnny Rook, I just didn’t have the patience anymore…
Bonus gifs: Cristina looking pretty + laughing about something Emma said off camera while they’re being girlies together having a photoshoot
