#Sophie Collins

[bankofwildflowers]

Will Herondale, having to be cruel against his very nature every single day to everyone, terrified of Jem leaving, crying himself to sleep since learning of Jem and Tessa's engagement (every time Tessa sees him it is mentioned he is red-eyed), walking around London endlessly to outrun his own thoughts, unable to let anyone know. James Carstairs, dying and terrified it will break Will, growing weaker and hating himself for it, killing himself for fear of letting Tessa know her love isn't sustaining his life, unable to let anyone know. Tessa Gray, beaten and slapped, exhausted to tears in a prison, terrified for her brother and if he's dead, loving two people equally and having to hide it from both, unable to let anyone know. Gideon Lightwood, walking away from his family, hoping to be a better man that his little brother can look up to, wanting to save him from their childhood, in love with a woman that does not seem to want him, unable to let anyone know. Gabriel Lightwood, alone in a house with his father going mad, heartbroken at his brother leaving him, trapped by the Consul's blackmail, unable to let anyone know. Cecily Herondale, losing both her siblings in a matter of days, growing up alone and having to learn to repair the cracks left behind by her brother leaving, being angry at him for not thinking their family was worth it, unable to let anyone know. Sophie Collins, only a servant, her only wish to be a Shadowhunter being one which can never come true because she has a debt to repay, in love with a man with whom it can never work out, unable to let anyone know. Charlotte Branwell, her only desire to influence and help and protect being mocked and crushed by men, in love with a man that looks at her as a friend, unable to let anyone know. Henry Branwell, knowing things work different than what he's been taught, knowing he is right but cannot possibly explain and will always be laughed at as insane, in love with a woman that married him for convenience, unable to let anyone know.

The Infernal Devices understood loneliness like no other book I've read, the bone deep sense of being utterly alone even when surrounded by people.

Cassandra Clare LOVES the grew-up-too-soon x babied-all-their-life trope

Clary was sheltered up until the events of TCOB meanwhile Jace was getting raised by Valentine

Kit was forced to grow up quickly while Ty was babied by Julian and his family

Sophie was cast out onto the streets while Gideon had a fairly nice upbringing (besides his dad turning into a worm but let's face it he deserved it)

Lucie was raised as the daughter of one of the wealthiest Shadowhunter families while Jesse literally died as a kid

And do I even need to explain Thomas and Alastair...

[rohsolism]

Just remembered how Grace had men in her life wanting her for her beauty and never bothering to know about her other qualities and Christopher Lightwood being the first man who admired her for her intelligence and her brain and Sophie after her scar said that now she will know who loves her truly and how Gideon Lightwood told her that he admired for her character, bravery and her beauty. Oh Lightwood men you will always be loved by men.

The way Tessa writes diary entries with Sophie as the intended audience IS DEVASTATING and I will NEVER get over it 😭 my girlies

To the anon who asked if I would ever draw them again, thanks for giving me the inspiration to do so ☺️

[moonysmoothies]

just got to the sophideon proposal scene in clockwork princess and wow. gideon's declaration beforehand, henry asking which one of benedict's friends gideon was going to marry, gabrily eavesdropping, gideon's apology and sophie correcting him that he hadn't proposed, gabriel's happiness when sophie corrects him, gideon's proposal, sophie asking him if he had practiced it and gideon using the word extemporaneous, their kiss being broken up by bridget singing about a couple who got married and died two days later, sophie saying she's going to murder her and correcting herself to call him gideon instead of mr lightwood. nobody did it like them.

[thepictureofsdr]

gideon telling everyone he’s going to marry sophie before proposing to her vs. thomas announcing he’s going to spend the rest of his life with alastair before introducing him to the family

[marrr444]

Oh wait. I just realized Thomas Lightwood was named after Thomas Tanner (the institute's servant who died in clockwork angel ) AND they have the same build.

[hronstairs]

and that's how TID became my favorite trilogy

[jaxlightstairs]

Thomas Lightwood really is the perfect combination of Gideon and Sophie

[roseofthomas]

the fact that gideon’s first reaction to thomas saying he’s gonna spend the rest of his life with alastair was “i didn’t think you even liked alastair” is soo in character 😭 he has no idea whats going on but tries his best

[cortanas-wielder]

Cassandra Clare, the commidic genius that you are

Will @ Gabriel and Cecily:

Church and Jem:

Will’s last two brain cells making a plan, already well into an action that requires a plan:

[witchlingcirce]

Can we please just talk about there friendship for a moment?? There literally so underrated.

So much of the stuff in the infernal devices gets completely undermined due to the phenomenal romance but one thing I’d really like to point out is the friendship these two had.

In a moment when Tessa had no friends or female friends Sophie was so kind to her! I think it’s so nice that throughout the novel they both had each others back consistently.

My first true friend in London :,)
