Okay so okay so hmmm. The "shadow" of the Dark Knight is meant to be some representation of a part of one's soul, specifically the darker emotions and reflections of oneself, so would Alisaie's be Alphinaud since they're twins? Someone she constantly compares herself to and finds herself Lacking In Relation To Him (In her own mind, he is smarter, he is kinder, he is more rational, he Knows What To Do More Than Her), which would force her to slowly learn that You Are Good Enough As You Are Alie-
grabs you slowly pulls you towards my wip folder looks around. it looks like wol. it looks like the wol the strongest the best the winner until they confront it and it changes shape into just alisaie, just herself she’s competing with. the wol pushes her to be better, she pushes herself to be more. the wol is what she wants in a teacher. herself is what she needs to confront

What do you think will happen to Clace in TWP?
I am a really adamant supporter of the fact that none of the tmi cast will die. And I WILL continue to support that notion!!!
In all honesty?? I don’t really know!! I got an ask once saying that they thought that Janus’s actions would be blamed on Jace, which would be a parallel to how he was treated in city of ashes.
I see a lot of Clary getting kidnapped theories, but I also kind of like the idea that Janus can never get to clary. Like he will never be that close to her again- he had his Clary and it messed up.
But, I’m sure whatever it is may be likely to get solved in black volume of the dead. TWP has too many plots and too many villains in so little time 😫

Can I share some shadow hunter opinions? Well, just a few of them. [I’m talking about Shadowhunters the tv show, not the books just be clear. The books are…kinda gross to me. And I say that as someone who devoured them as teenager. And the show has its problems too, but is much better to me. Maybe that’s the first opinion? *insert thinking face*]
1. The way Alec is treated in the first season by everyone is ABYSMAL. Especially by Jace and Izzy and don’t get me started on Clary. Surprise! The sheltered, repressed shadow hunter whose spent his whole life expecting to never be happy, raising you and being trained in clave politics isn’t happy to break the law and risk everything he’s ever worked for and his family for…. the daughter of their biggest enemy. And we have to root for these people! Gee, Clary, maybe pissing off the person who’s in the best position to help you isn’t such a good idea. She literally says she’s doesn’t care about the rules! Nothing can ever make me like Clary. I’m sorry your mother was taken and you were thrown into this new world, but girl, have a little respect. And the non existent parabati bond that’s completely one sided. Jace is such an entitled little pos who knows exactly how to take advantage of Alec’s love for his family. Are we seriously supposed to like him after blaming Alec for Clary’s actions, outright telling Alec that his emotionally abusive mother is right? Simon called it. All of the reasons for Alec’s choices are so clear! How can they not know their brother at all? How can they ignore what’s clearly in front of them if they’d just think!
2. Now this one might get me in trouble. I’m not a great fan of Magnus, at least at the beginning. I think he’s great for Alec and actually love Malec, but the way he treats Alec in the first season has just never sat right. He’s been around long enough to know about shadowhunter society and can clearly see Alec is gay, and just pushes. I always have to agree in that scene when Alec tells him so. Frankly, I think Alec is lucky that they were in the situation they were with Valentine. If the clave didn’t have that to be worried about I think kissing Magnus would have ended his career. And how can Magnus, someone with hundreds of years of his own trauma look at Alec and be like that, get mad at Alec for proposing to Lydia when it is very clear why he’s doing it. They weren’t in a relationship, Alec owed him nothing. (I have problems with how everyone treated him for proposing to Lydia, honestly). I’m also just not a big fan of age gaps as a whole, or in this case too, experience gaps. I don’t think the power balance is balanced at all.
Actually, maybe I just don’t like how Magnus seems to be able to do no wrong in a lot of fan’s eyes what im most frustrated by. At least from what I’ve seen. Not online, not in fanfiction is Magnus ever really criticised for his actions. And if he is it’s somehow excused. I think it’s quite infantilising to Magnus too. This man is hundreds of years old and extremely powerful. I’m not discounting all his own trauma, but that’s all people seem to see him as. I also think people are afraid to say anything because fans will see anything as a direct attack on his skin colour or sexuality. When that’s not the case. Magnus is an amazing representation and I can’t think of any other characters like him, and I think because of that people are very protective. I see Alec get bashed all the time for his choices and in some works treated like shit when, like I said, his reasoning is made perfectly clear. He’s a sheltered, repressed gay man (younger than 25!) responsible for his family, an entire institute of people and has every little mistake thrown in his face by an evil, corrupt group of bigots. Of course he’s not going to be the perfect boyfriend, or the perfect leader straight away. Honestly, I find his choices much easier to swallow than some of the others purely because of the reasons I just said. Again, I’m not saying that to disregard any of the awful shit other characters go through. Like I said at the beginning though, I do like him more end of season 1 onwards and he is actually one of my favourite characters.
Can you tell how nervous this opinion makes me?? *insert nervous face* *please don’t hurt me*
3. I wish we had gotten more of the downworld. I love reading fanfiction that go into downworld politics, particularly warlocks and the spiral labyrinth. You have an insane cult that want an entire group of people dead and we barely go into that group. Magnus is the High Warlock of Brooklyn! Show us! Maybe it’s just me, but I much prefer worldbuilding and political factions than action and the world of shadowhunters has so much potential! Don’t just tell us, show us. I also wish we could’ve seen more of Magnus hanging out with Ragnor and Catarina, and more of his relationship with Raphael.
4. Alec, Magnus and Madzie are the best dynamic in the show. I could watch a spin off series about those three. And Catarina, but mainly Malec and Madzie. Would have also loved to have seen Max and Madzie meet.
5. …the writing didn’t improve in after S1. The acting, yes. Writing not so much. (Did anyone else want to do shot any time ‘brother’ ir ‘hermano’ was said in the first season?) Harry and Alberto obviously carried the first show. They just were Magnus and Simon. Harry especially did wonderfully with such a beloved character. Matt definitely improved although I actually don’t think he was that bad in the first season, and the chemistry with Harry was always just magical. Katherine and Emeraude did too. There were some moments when Katherine just hit it out the park. Emeraude really shined in her emotional parts too. Dominic I never actually cared enough to notice. I kind a zoned out any time he talked and I never liked Jace in the books either. (Movie Jace > show Jace. Movie Jace would destroy show Jace). I also just didn’t feel the chemistry between him and Katherine . There’s a reason Malec is just so easy to love.
6. Shadow hunters isn’t more cringy than other teen shows at that time. I think it gets unfairly bashed on. It’s cringy, definitely, but all teen fantasy shows are.
YES IM HERE FOR THIS AND WARNING: THIS IS LONG AS FUCK
I mean you can literally shit on the books and I’ll be that bitch that’s all like YES GO OFF 🔥
exactly right about Alec! everyone is treating him incredibly wrong. I loathe jace and clary and it was absolutely disgusting how jace told Alec his best isn’t good enough. Clary is so entitled and the audacity of her being all like “you have to help me save my mother” yeah actually we don’t. I know she doesn’t actually say this but she does act that way. bossing them around and Alec is the one paying all the consequences. they should’ve sent her ass to idris.
literally Alec is risking everything for her and she’s the daughter of an enemy. Clary has done and shown not a zilch of why she should be trusted. I’ve always said how one sided the parabatai bond is because jace doesn’t care about Alec or act as if he exists until he needs something. so jace and clary are actually perfect for one another because they’re both dumb, selfish, entitled dicks who expect everything to be handed to them. literally all of Alec’s issues in season one (and the whole show) are because of jace and clary and him being in the closet. no one ever fucking respects Alec and the choices he makes. and then when he finally chooses himself, Maryse is all like but family honor alec, we don’t recognize you!!!!!!!! Izzy is a good sister to Alec at least and Magnus obviously cares but it’s almost as though everyone else hates him. literally season one: alec how dare you!
it’s okay!!!!! you’re in a safe place so think and say your thoughts ✨ I do think Magnus pushes Alec a little but it’s not compared as horrible as the books. I think (and this is just me) he’s hurt. Alec doesn’t owe him anything but I think it’s also important to look at it from Magnus’s view. he’s finally starting to open his heart- and this isn’t anyone’s fault. it’s not Magnus’s fault if Alec isn’t ready. it’s not Alec’s fault for choosing his family because he’s so accustomed to doing that. Alec is a shadowhunter and part of now he’s raised is to put family honor, duty, and being a shadowhunter first.
I understand not liking Magnus in the first season. I love him but I hate book versions of Malec. the fandom can be so cruel but I do agree with some of his actions in season one. I think it’s hard to take sides because I see the hurt on magnus as well as Alec feeling like he can’t come out. the clave are such judgmental bigots and it’s very important to note that coming out could cost everything to Alec. I think they did a little better with the clave in the show but I don’t think lgbtq+ rep was really touched on much in the show. the consequences of coming out, how they’re treated, and etc. Malec is obviously healthy but a lot more could have been done
definitely agree with the downworld! it’s actually my fav people and the hurt, treatment, all the shit they go through isn’t talked about enough. they were hunted for centuries and the shadowhunters (not all) are such hypocrites. like even when others call them out, they’re all like yeah but we’re kind of superior? it’s just not handled well. one of my biggest complaints with the show is the fact ragnor is killed off and the warlocks aren’t in the show as much as they should be. I’ve said it before, show isn’t perfect but hey, it’s not the books
literally Malec being parents is the cutest thing ever. Madzie is so fortunate to have them and I wish we could have seen Alec and Magnus eventually adopt her. Magnus has such a vast history and Malec has an incredibly large fan base that a spin off would entertain us for years. I don’t trust CC and I don’t like her so I would not want her around Malec. she doesn’t care about Malec and didn’t until it earned her a fucking paycheck. (just my opinion)
I love Matt and I think he killed it everytime. there’s a reason why Malec carried the show. his facial expressions in season one stole that season. Harry did as well. I’m not a fan of Katherine’s acting, I’m sorry 😭 her and dom’s acting is so over the top. I can’t stand CLACE so maybe that’s just more on me but it felt cringe. Matt and Harry clearly carried the show. Em did amazing with the storylines they gave to Izzy because let’s face it, she barely had any in the books. I think she did exceptionally well. Simon was also a lot better in the show too. no complaints on that side either. and we know Malec was great but if you also look at what they added: the parallels, their cat and mouse game in season one, (FLIRTATION WAS INTENSE) the longing they had, Matt adding Magnus’s characteristics to Alec in season three, the growth they both had, the fact that they’re honest and don’t miscommunicate. there’s no cheating, acting childish, trying to turn your boyfriend mortal, or any of the biphobic shit in the books. like there is just so much that they gave to Malec. I know some don’t like Matt’s acting but you can’t tell me that man can’t act. he’s severely underrated. as is Harry. like I don’t think they get enough credit.
my conclusion on the show in general: it’s cringe, yes but watch for Malec and it’s an absolute fucking treat. I don’t consider it a teen show since they actually upped their ages. I think book fans just want to hate on it because it’s not like their precious books. sometimes an adaption is better and I’m willing to go to battle over this lmao I didn’t find any of the Malec or Izzy or Simon stuff cringe but CLACE? absofuckinglutely. it’s not perfect by any means but it could have been exactly like the books so let’s be thankful it wasn’t

genuine question, was antony singling out the racist comments to like or was he just clicking like on every comment without reading them? not excusing his behavior i just wonder if that was intentional or a really bad mistake.
well, he didn’t like the comment asking why he was liking racist comments. he also doesn’t have a history of spam liking his comment section afaik. now, if it was an honest mistake, he needs to address that directly instead of just limiting comments and acting like he didn’t (intentionally or not) contribute to the public mocking of a black woman.
edit: the racist comments have been removed. he definitely does read the comments, though.

The orchidsexual and orchidromantic flags are so different in color that I couldn't see a common color between the two, and you hadn't specified an orchid identity, so I just went with the purple and pink from orchidsexual because those colors are nice.

It irks me that people wanted Harry to put Remus' name on his son Babes, that man was avoidant as fuck throughout Harry's whole life. He wasn't even going to tell him that he knew his dead parents or that he was their friend (I'm talking about book!Remus, so I'm not considering that scene of them in PoA real). And after that, he never tried to be present in Harry's life, which I understand since he suffered a lot of hardships from being a werewolf but still!!! The closest Harry and Remus ever became was in book 7 after Harry called his bullshit and didn't fall into Remus' manipulation (the "It's what your father would've want, Harry"). Please, imagine being scolded by a 17 yo for leaving your pregnant wife and unborn child...burn I get why people hate Harry's name choosing, but Albus makes more sense and also Ginny would love an antique name so she would be 100% on board with that. And I hate the Severus too but well I support Harry's rights and wrongs (even if it's more the author's fault than his own). Side note: The name is bad but every other alternative I've encountered is WORSE.
yeah i was thinking this but i wasn’t gonna be the one to say it 😭 i think people overestimate how close those two were thanks to fanon. like yes harry definitely loved him but nothing bro did warranted getting a child named after him.
and i agree, i think the second son being named after dumbledore makes sense for harry but sliding snape into that had to be just honest to god fan service LMAO

What's your fav [or one of your favorite] scenes in Frayed Knots and/or Origin of the Pixies?
Thanks for the Ask!
Tumblr media
One of my favorite Origin chapters is Chapter 42, "The Unicorn Years." Sanderson is finally an adult and it shows in how he sticks up for himself and calls H.P. out on his procrastination habits. He's no longer the suck-up he used to be, and their duality is great:
I lay across my desk, hands grasping the far side. That's what I was doing when Sanderson pinged in. "How much have you written, sir?" he asked primly. He didn't try to suggest he'd been pushy and overbearing this morning, but the milkshake in his hand was a peace offering. That was obvious enough. "Um…" I looked down. "I have 'Hawkins, I like how you made square motions instead of pretty elf swirls' and 'Wilcox, if eggs didn't suck, you'd be an egg.' Um. It's a first draft." I think he muffled a snort. "And mine, sir?" "Oh… yeah. I forgot you were getting one too. I'll start it later." He shook the vanilla milkshake a bit, and I finally swiped it from his hand. "Compliments aren't my thing, Sanderson. And truthful critiques on Day 1 might shatter them. I'll get into the flow one of these days, but breaking the ice is hard. What did you tell them?" "Boss, I'm going to stop you right there because that would be plagiarism." He hovered behind my shoulder, sipping from his straw… then grabbed the papers from my desk and pinged away. Okay, wow. I flopped back in my chair, kicking up my legs. Knowing him like I did, there wasn't a doubt in my mind he was presenting those to Hawkins and Wilcox right now, articulate or not. Sanderson's a person who gets things done stupid early and then sits on his buns all week waiting for new instructions. I may struggle with procrastination, but at least I do useful stuff during said procrastination time. Who's more successful each day, I ask you. But, I got my preening circle after lunch on Friday. The instant they all left, I pinged to my office and scribbled my reports. It pleased me like nothing else to thrust those into Sanderson's hands when I saw him in the hall. "Here. Shove these in your uptight pouch and do a backflip, punk." "How many words?" he asked, scanning them. "400 apiece." "I wrote 800." He broke a smile when I yanked the reports back and smacked them at his head. Stupid punk kid.
^ This is quintessential Sanderson (to me)...
In "Unicorn Years," Sanderson finally recognizes his role as alpha retinue drone (i.e. that it's a legit high-ranking role in Fae society and his co-workers respect and report to him- it's not a fake title H.P. made up because of his separation anxiety).
That moment H.P. tells Sanderson the reason Hawkins and Wilcox are nervous is because they want to impress Sanderson, not him... That's /chef's kiss.
In the next chapter ("Letters and Numbers"), Sanderson cuts a deal with H.P. that he's willing to give up his alpha drone status as long as he gets to keep his music. I really like how I showed how Sanderson values his job, appreciates the status, and is good at this job all in one chapter before he throws it into the void. Love that for him.
Tumblr media
Chapter 34 of Knots is a favorite. I really like the migration arcs, especially the recent one in the mid-30 chapters. I love when Anti-Cosmo mingles with other Anti-Fairies and speaks in Vatajasa. I love him asking his relatives for interspecies love life advice- It's such a contrast to H.P., who was tossed out of his family just for being born with freckles.
I like when he asks his nana about her Fairy ex-husband and she straight-up tells him that if he's into fairy wings, he's better off finding an Anti-Fairy willing to dress in costume. Such a slap in the face and it fuels him with stubborn rage.
I love how Anti-Cosmo flits around migration blatantly explaining to the reader all the convoluted reasons why he's totally not cheating on his betrothed. He's such a mess.
I love Prince Eastkal demanding that his anti-fairy counterpart be brought to meet him and Anti-Cosmo just stands there in shock at how rude and inappropriate it is to show up and expect Anti-Eastkal can drop everything to meet with him. It's not a big moment, but those hints of culture and Anti-Cosmo experiencing things that H.P. wouldn't think about in Origin are my favorites.
I like the conflict between Anti-Cosmo and Jorgen when Anti-Cosmo absolutely refuses to admit that he saved Prince Eastkal's life several chapters ago. I like Jorgen's dawning realization that Anti-Cosmo got arrested for being over the border... Jorgen's starting to put the pieces together.
I appreciate how Anti-Cosmo stands up for his culture and his friends but he's also just blatantly sexist because that's how he was raised in Anti-Fairy World.
The parallel of Anti-Cosmo calling out racial inequality H.P. is oblivious to while H.P. calls out gender inequality that A.C. overlooks really emphasizes that both societies are flawed and you can compare and contrast the cultures... I like the worldbuilding a lot.
[Cnt'd under the cut] -
I really like the scene at the end of Knots Chapter 35 where Anti-Cosmo visits H.P. to get a letter of recommendation for school :)
I like how Sanderson comes to the door all groggy and it's not even because he was sleeping, it's because he was carving soap sculptures.
I like Sanderson pausing before knocking on the wooden door to ask Anti-Cosmo if that will give him a migraine and Anti-Cosmo being surprised that Sanderson thought about that.
In Origin, H.P. regularly diminishes Sanderson's abilities in an attempt to deny connection and/or excuse his own neglect towards Sanderson. Anti-Cosmo gives Sanderson all the dues he's owed (and will continue to do so for the rest of the story).
In the 130 Prompts, Sanderson's relationship with A.C. is very complicated... so I like slipping in these foreshadowing clues so that when everything breaks loose later, you can see these hints of why Sanderson starts to waver in his loyalty and why Anti-Cosmo tolerates him.
I also like Sanderson's comment that if H.P. is "too busy to find out what Sanderson wants, he's too busy to be mad that Sanderson made his own decisions." Even sleepy, Sanderson is better at handling things than he's normally allowed to be- he is the alpha drone in the retinue, after all.
I love how Anti-Cosmo notices that H.P. went out of his way to design hotel rooms for Anti-Fairy visitors even though Anti-Fairies are banned from visiting. It foreshadows H.P.'s upcoming neutrality and we start leaning into the reasons why H.P. and Anti-Cosmo are future allies and friends- because H.P. (for all his horrendous cultural blunders) will still make the effort to cater to others' needs).
I love the entire concept of A.C. asking H.P. for a letter of rec even though they barely know each other. All those side mentions of babysitting from earlier chapters came back to pay off.
I love the breakfast scene, especially H.P. talking about Iris:
"If she was after money, she wouldn't have turned me down when I tried to court her. I'm very desirable. By the way, her toxic trait is that she roots for the Centipedes in saucerbee and their roster totally sucks. Other than that, she's pretty dazzled." "You're interested in courting her?" I asked, pulling back. "Oh. I thought you were a…" The Head Pixie turned to look at me again, stone-faced. "Be very careful in considering how you want to end that sentence, Anti-Cosmo."
H.P.'s choppy cadence (with all his random casual words) is my favorite to write. I also think it's hilarious that he's still pining after Iris but doesn't even ask A.C. to put in a good word for him to her (in return for the letter of rec). Instead, he just wants A.C. to help Iris network. It's the little things... He cares.
I love how A.C. is so smart and yet so oblivious. He spends the story thinkin the Pixie race is dying out. Absolute shock to him when he finds out their population is reproducing exponentially. My dude, how did you screw this one up. No one can be more wrong than you.
H.P. tells him to his face "I don't experience attraction" and A.C. twists that in his mind to mean "He's embarrassed to admit he likes someone." It's one of those little things that Anti-Wanda gets and A.C. doesn't. I love the A.W.-H.P. dynamic so much.
I really like the bit where Anti-Cosmo asks H.P. for interspecies romantic advice and H.P. turns a circle, clearly looking for something, leaves, then comes back with nothing. Just... dipped.
Literally everything about the A.C.-H.P. dynamic is comedy gold to me. There are a few specific instances where Anti-Cosmo gets to take shots at H.P. and embarrass him, but it's usually H.P. being snarky towards A.C. and it cracks me up. Look at them:
"Show affection someplace nice and she'll want to keep coming back. Don't be weird and kiss at the grocery store or in an old shed or you'll be stuck circling back around to it. And if you want something long-term to come out of this, then you'd better build a yidreamu. Traditionally it's the partner with the smaller lift who builds it, so…" He stopped then, surveying my crown. "… Yikes. Start clipping coupons, maybe." I reached up to graze my black crown with my fingertips, my face flushing dark with cold. I did have a pathetic lift, barely two finger widths above my head, but did he really have to say it? "Th-thank you for the advice… That's all I need to know, really."
I like how we had that previous chapter where Anti-Lance called H.P. out for being "a creep" towards the much younger Anti-Cosmo- which is very justified! But also, they just hang out like this:
"Back in the Spring of the Silver Silk, I placed a curse on you that prevents flowers from lasting more than one night under your roof. I believe we confirmed said curse was still active this past migration. Did you find the counter-spell?" "No. I just started keeping commelinas in my house because they die in like, one day anyway, so it's not a waste. I'm giving them a home." "Why do you bother replacing them?" The older pixie looked at me, caught off guard despite his practised pixie patience. I could tell. "Because it means I win. Here." He took one of the blue flowers from the vase and handed it to me. "For you." [...] "Your attention to detail is impeccable," I remarked, twirling the commelina in my hand. "Thanks. I'm imprisoned by obsessive compulsions, severe hyperfixations, and crippling executive dysfunction."
H.P. is so stubborn. He's so shocked that Anti-Cosmo would even ask him why he bothered. He's so blinded to his own quirks. It's great.
I like how H.P. straps Anti-Cosmo in a bungee cord harness and lets him steer his cloudship, but in the far future, Anti-Cosmo never lets Foop drive his cloudship. It's just a fun, dynamic chapter all around.
My writing style has improved a lot since I started this 'fic, but I still like Chapter 2. I really like how it opens with Anti-Cosmo being dragged down the hall by his foot and forced to commit emergency marsupial pouch-slicing rescue procedures.
I love starting longfics off with that reminder that you're in for something weird, so if you can't tolerate this splash of weirdness upfront, the rest of the 'fic won't be to your tastes either. Frayed Knots really throws you in and I like it for that.
