Ty the Protector

Art: @cassandrajean

Ty is many things. A detective, someone who is kind to ghosts and animals, a person who speaks out when others are not being treated right. However, I believe the root of all these traits can be boiled down to one fact that strikes at the essence of who Ty is: he's a protector.

We see his protectiveness in scenes like this:

"You little-" Barnabas launched himself across the table at Dru. She slid out of the booth so fast and collided with someone's torso with an oomph. She looked up. It was Ty, a shortsword in his hand, pointed directly at Barnabas's chest. He put one arm protectively around Dru, his gaze never wavering from the warlock. "Leave my sister alone," he said.

But we also see them in scenes like this:

"You won't punish him," he said, his cord wrapped tightly around the fingers of his left hand, "will you?" Julian turned around, clearly surprised. "Punish Mark? For what?" "For all the things he said." Ty was flushed, unwinding the cord slowly as it slid through his fingers. "Of course not," said Julian. "None of us would punish him." "It's not his fault if he doesn't understand everything," Ty said. "Or if things are too much for him. It's not his fault."

And even scenes like this one, believe it or not:

When reading the thoughts of other characters in the books it can feel like they speak a lot about protecting Ty but we also see in many scenes that Ty is perfectly capable of protecting himself and is even fiercer about protecting those he loves. He's willing to stare down a powerful warlock to protect Dru. He's willing to confront the only father he's ever known, Julian, that he loves so much because he thinks Mark could be mistreated by him. He protects Mark no matter how it could affect his relationship with Julian. And yes, he raises Livvy because he wants to protect her. From a death he's sure she doesn't want or deserve. But he also wants to protect his family and make them whole again by resurrecting Livvy. Livvy has protected him countless times over their life and his family has as well, I don't think it would be a stretch to say that he believes that he owes it to them to bring Livvy since he has the ability to because of that. Now, I'm not saying he didn't raise Livvy because he felt like he himself needed her back. He actually says in QOAAD that he did it all because he wants her to be with him in any way possible. However, I do think protectiveness for his family and Kit was threaded all through it as well.

Ty has learned from his mistakes and I feel that he will spend the entirety of TWP atoning for them. I also think he will spend all of TWP protecting those he loves. Protecting Kit from the ones who wish to harm him as the Last Heir. Protecting Dru while she deals with the predicaments of Ash and Jaime and also processes her grief over Livvy. Protecting the shadowhunter universe because it contains those he loves most in it. I believe Ty will be a beautiful protector in this series and I can't wait to see it. I just hope that he remembers that he also deserves to be protected and loved.

Some of my hopes for TWP!!

Of course the wicked powers is coming out in 2026 and I still have many, many years to contemplate what is going to happen but this is just for fun!!

- I do desperately want Thais and Dru to be parabatai. This is not something I’m necessarily expecting to happen, I think as the series as a whole really lacks female Parabtai bonds. You have really good ones like Alec&Jace, Matthew&James, Jem&Will, and so on. But I feel like we really don’t get these female type of Parabtai bonds, we have Lucie and Cordelia of course- but honestly I feel like we don’t see enough of them. So even if there not Parabtai, I do hope there really good friends.

- THE INCLUSION OF THE LONDON INSTITUTE! Has the London Institute been the main setting for two different series? Yes. Do I care? NO. I’d love to see it again and know who’s running it now, maybe a new character.

- I so badly want Ash & Kit to be really good friends. There’s that one snippet we have for Ash asking Kit “what’s a rodeo” and that is so out of context and seems SO funny to me!! I feel like they’d be really cool friends so I’m rooting for them so bad.

- I REALLY want Kit to be a really good, competent fighter. He doesn’t need to be Jace, he doesn’t need to be Emma, I just want him to be a good fighter. I don’t want him to be helpless, yk? Although I’m very curious on what his main weapon will be, I’m sure most of the time it’s James gun, but I can also see him with daggers (think clary in the shadowhunter TV series)

- NO ROMANCE BETWEEN JAIME AND DRU! Yucky! Yucky!! Boo!!! Booooo!!!!

- I actually need Kit to go to faerie and meet the Seelie queen, it would be so messy… need to see there… family dynamic iykwim

- I need to see Ty flirting with Kit again, like constantly. He was going crazyyyy in TDA with all his flirting it’s so cute! Need to see it again!!

- I also need Ash to have a Zuko like arc !!! It’s not a want but a need!!

[wikitpowers]

i’m sorry but THEY. ARE. FRIENDS. !!!!!

BESTIES EVEN, YES!!! BUT NOT A COUPLE!!!

[a-random-insomniac]

I KNOW THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE A SCENE IN TWP WHERE THEY HAVE TO GET CHANGED FOR AN EVENT AND EVERYONE IS GOING TO BE HAVING A (gay) PANIC

[1indigoisles]

Like, why aren't more people talking about this teaser?

His face crumpled. "He hates me," he said. "All I do is love him, but he hates me, he just hates me, I don't know why."

LIKE? This is so clearly TLKOF Ty talking to Dru (not Livvy, because she disappears in TLKOF, convince me otherwise) about Kit! Presumably this is towards the end of TLKOF where both Dru's and Ty's romantic lives and the world in general are in chaos. And this is just a sweet, heart-breaking sibling moment between them where they talk about how everything is messed up and how the people they'd loved had broken their hearts. Since they were away from each other, it would be news to Dru that Ty was in love with Kit, and it would be news to Ty that Dru had given her heart to someone Ty had barely heard of.

Like, just imagine THAT conversation. I'm interested in their dynamic so much because Dru and Ty are going to make a different sibling pair than what we're used to. They weren't close enough to fully understand each other when they were younger. Ty always seemed like the cool older brother to Dru, what with him being so smart and knowing so much about so many things. Dru, on the other hand, was the gothic younger sister, with an inexplicable love for vintage horror and a criminal edge that impressed Kit Herondale, who basically had crime etched in his DNA. But they always protected each other. Like, it was given.

And when I think about all that and try to imagine their special moments, I just can't anymore. *cries inconsolably*

KitTy vibes :

[tys-kitty]

I need to see one last traditional Christmas ball in TWP that‘s hosted by the London Institute

[runinfan]

i really don’t think we thank ty enough for being the most beautiful character in all of tsc

[kaitcreates]

Plot twist 2, electric boogaloo: the TWP love triangle isn’t Dru having to decide between Ash and Jaime. It’s Ash having to choose between Jaime and Dru.

[d4rkshad0w]

so looking at TWP/TBVOTD teasers i’ve come to the conclusion that teaser six might be about Dru and Ash

Teaser #6

"Well, it's a bit ironic, isn't it?"

"What do you mean?"

"All that effort to convince you I wasn't in love with you, and here I am, dying in your arms."

so i’m pretty sure that it’s DruAsh because Kit already confessed to Ty and if Ty were to hide that he loves Kit and he wouldn’t put in a lot of effort to hide that he still care NOW Dru doesn’t really know to Ash is but he’s in love w her cuz why else would he carry her picture around so either Dru was trying to convince Ash that she wasn’t in love with him tho he was in love w her OR Ash was trying to hide his feelings for Dru and then maybe one of them gets hurt during a battle and is supposedly “dying” in the others arms

[mayaheronthorn]

Who Disappears in TLKOF?

So the summary of The Last King of Faerie on Cassie's website indicates that Ty and Kit set off at the start of TLKOF to find someone who has mysteriously disappeared. At the moment I have four guesses for who it could be, but I'm not completely sold on any of them.

Dru - I know it's unlikely that Dru will go missing again in TLKOF, but I feel like she will very much be in Faerie for the majority of the book and I don't think she'll be able to tell many people about it. What if she is unable to tell Kit and Ty which leads them to look for her? I've said this in the past, the only reason I can see Kit and Ty coming back together for anything is because someone very important to both of them would be in danger. Dru definitely fits that description.

Clary - The reason I feel like it could be Clary is because Janus wants her by his side. I very much think that he could kidnap her early on which throws everyone into disarray. The only thing about Clary is that I don't feel like Ty and Kit have enough connection to her to bring them together to actively solve her disappearance, not with how they left things in TDA and SOBH. I know Kit is connected to her because of Jace, but it still doesn't feel like enough. However, if her disappearance could be somehow related to Kit being the First Heir or Livvy being resurrected, I definitely think it could bring them together. A slight variation of this is that Ty might be dispatched to help find her/solve the investigation of her disappearance since he's a Centurion. Then it somehow gets connected to Kit being the First Heir or Livvy which then pulls Kit in. Kit knows the only way he can solve it is with Ty's help so he begrudgingly accepts that he has to work with him.

Jaime - I truly don't see them going to look for Jaime unless Dru specifically asked them to, but I think that could be a possibility. Maybe Dru looks in Faerie for Ash while the boys look for him the mundane world on their roadtrip. What really gives weight to this for me is that we already see in SOBH that he's gone missing.

Livvy - Going along with the idea that the only reason Kit and Ty would pair up again if something very dire happedned, I believe that Livvy could go missing one day. Maybe she became unstable and is now wreaking havoc somewhere. This would really weaken Ty which I believe could make Kit agree to help him (because deep down we know he would do anything to help Ty if he was truly in need). There's also the fact that they would feel responsibility for the harm that Livvy could be causing since they resurrected her.

I know most of these probably seem very unlikely, but they are my guesses. I would love to hear all of your thoughts!
