#I like Clace

[helenofblackthorns]

clace incest era obviously sucks but I do appreciate how literally all their friends are weirdly okay with it. like idk it's fun. anyone else would be raising multiple moral objections but not Simon, Alec, and Izzy! they're the og ride or die friends because this was somehow not a deal breaker. they at most joke about it after the fact, friendship goals ig

jace when clary compliments him:

currently rereading city of bones and doing loads of doodles while listening to the audiobook <3

one thing about city of bones clary is that she literally always is yelling at jace and one thing about city of bones jace is that he does in fact deserve it every single time

I love the way the tag #tmi means either To Much Information or The Mortal Instruments, so that when scrolling you're flicking between cute fanart and posts about jacking off.

“Keep up,” said an irritable voice in her ear. It was Jace, who had dropped back to walk beside her. “I don’t want to have to keep looking behind me to make sure nothing’s happened to you.”

“So don’t bother.”

“Last time I left you alone, a demon attacked you,” he pointed out.

“Well, I’d certainly hate to interrupt your pleasant night stroll with my sudden death.”

sorry i know hatred is bad for my heart but i can’t stop thinking abt the person who randomly showed up on my isabelle lightwood post to tell me how much they hate book!isabelle because she’s so toxic and her relationship with simon is so awful. first of all when did i ask. second of all what the hell are you talking about. this is the incest series. every single major character in this universe has done something heinous to their significant other. isabelle is quite literally one of the only members of the main cast who hasn’t engaged in some kind of fauxcest so by that standard alone she is already head and shoulders above her brothers + clary. i joke a lot about isabelle and simon matching each other’s freak but like they have the most normal relationship in maybe all of tsc BY FAR; they hang out/date for months before they start throwing around ‘i love you’s and are the only tmi couple with explicitly shared interests/hobbies.

also isabelle is pretty consistently the only one of the main 6 not actively hating/having major personal drama with another one of the main 6 (except, y’know, when simon literally CHEATS ON HER, which she gets over pretty quickly all things considered). she very clearly doesn’t like clary in city of bones but sucks it up for jace’s sake and helps her get ready for magnus’s party anyway (even when it’s clear that clary Does Not Like her). like yeah compared to a normal person she is toxic and has some unhealthy perspectives. however compared to her peers she is literally the only person with any kind of interpersonal skills whatsoever. arguably she has better social skills than clary and clary actually grew up around more than 2 people her own age. and also it might help to remember she’s a 16 year old girl . not to pull the misogyny card or anything but literally what the hell did book isabelle do wrong to some of you people other than…flirt with boys + enjoy wearing makeup

i am so absolutely certain that if i were a teen in the 70s anne rice would have been what cassandra clare is to me today. like. reading iwtv is exactly like reading tmi to me except i dont have a crazy obsession w the entire series to carry me through this so i'm just struggling

[petratherrock]

Sometimes girlies just wanna do rereads of TMI for Clace scenes and mentions 😌

[bookishjules]

someone at the cc event asked about simon and izzy's wedding and cassie said she always liked the idea of a double wedding for them and clace, and then maureen johnson, who she was in convo with, started talking about simon planning for this wedding (bc apparently she loves him) and cassie added the detail of simon practicing a WEDDING SONG ON HIS GUITAR and guys i will never be the same

[angellywtti]

I just finished the gut wrenching, destructive ass shit that is COLS

Ladies and gentlemen hold on tight for the fucking wild ride that it is COHF, just me, my book, and the condom in jace's leather jacket that he took to hell with him LMAOOOOOOOOOOO

"describe your fav ships" ok

[wikitpowers]

shut up i want what they have

[im-out-of-it]

I think this is part five of season 1, episode 11. I’m sorry my memory is shit thanks to chronic illnesses!!!!!!! payment service completed ☑️

97. anyway, moving on to better things that are kinda sad

98. Magnus is basically begging Alec at this point to not get married

99. you really don’t Alec but we can get into this later smh

100. yeah, what is Magnus going to do with a bow and arrow?????

101. I can see why Alec is sad about giving his weapons away but it’s not like he doesn’t have more????????

102. can we also talk about how Magnus doesn’t hate Lydia????? he likes her as a person but he’s trying to reiterate how Alec isn’t in love with Lydia. how they’re all be lonely and don’t deserve that fate

103. I don’t think Magnus has ever returned payment

104. I think what makes this scene so memorable is the fact that Magnus isn’t angry because he understands why Alec is choosing to marry Lydia- she’s great, nice, traditional- like Alec but he’s trying to get through to Alec that he doesn’t have to live a lie with someone he doesn’t love.

and we also have to keep in mind that Alec is used to putting himself and his feelings last. everything he does is for his family and being a shadowhunter with the expectations of his family and the clave. so it is probable that a part of him doesn’t believe he can be in love while being a shadowhunter. he never believed this was in the cards for him so marrying Lydia seems to be the sensible choice for Alec. and it’s not like we have seen or heard of many gay shadowhunters. the clave is so prejudiced against their own people. Alec has so many expectations on him and he was never told or shown that he could be in love, be gay, and be a shadowhunter. even telling Magnus in season two how he didn’t think he could have what he wanted

also funny when Simon is like they’re brother and sister so they can’t????? well if you are CC and have an incest fetish, they can do whatever the hell they want. so glad the show changed this 👏🏼

well this turned out to be hella long but thank you so much for joining jace and clary are siblings and don’t understand not taking a villain for their word and Magnus is the greatest attorney and being you could have around you ✨ 104 was the number today!!!!!!!! y’all thought today was long, wait until episode 12 of MALEC 💓 I apologize in advance and appreciate anyone who takes the time to read my stupid thoughts 🫶🏼 now I’ll be crying and preparing myself for malecs first fight

MUST THEY QUARREL??????? it breaks my heart so much but see y’all soon. MALEC IS UP NEXT ✨🥰

[witchlingcirce]

City of ashes is peak fever dream shadowhunters because I always forget that Valentine quite literally WENT to Simons house and KIDNAPPED him 😭😭

Or the fact that Simon and Clary DATED and than Simon broke up with her because he couldn’t compete with her ‘brother’… like…

[booksandmore]

the thing about the tmi incest plot is that some people act like it was portrayed in a positive light, but it really wasn't?? both clary and jace new how fucked up it was, as well as the people around them.

i don;t remember who wrote it, but i saw a post on here one time that said something along the lines of that valentine telling clary and jace that they're siblings was an extreme form of parental abuse. and don't see enough people talking about it in that light.

(on a more lighthearted note: as someone who read tid before tmi, the incest plot didn't really bother me since i already knew who jace's real parents were by reading the found family tree 🤭)

yes exactly!! jace and clary knew, because they experienced (somewhat) loving families!! that’s why it caused them sm pain!! but sebastian didn’t understand/though it was okay, because he never experienced that!! AND VALENTINE KNEW!!! he knew how it would affect them!! he did what he did knowing it would hurt clary and jace and obsess sebastian!
