#gideon and gabriel lightwood

[weregonnabecoolbeans]

Fun fact!

You may think you want your favourite characters to get to grow old and have a happy life..but sometimes, it will leave you just as depressed.

And SOMETIMES it will leave you significantly more depressed…so depressed that you’ll have to sit on the floor for at least an hour letting tears run down your face to recover from the emotional damage inflicted by the epilogue of your favourite book series.

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.

Someone tell Cassandra Clare to stop killing everyone's parents like Clary, Jace, Isabelle, Alec, Jem, Jessamie, Cordelia, Alastair, Zachary, Gideon, Gabriel, Tatiana, Jesse, Grace, Emma, Julian, Ty, Livvy, Dru, Tavvy, Helen, Mark, Kit, Ariadne and Magnus literally all grew up missing at least one parent

Have I mentioned how i feel about these guys

[hronstairs]

and that's how TID became my favorite trilogy

[marrr444]

WAIT WAIT WAIT

Alec Gideon Lightwood was named after Gideon, we all know that

BUT where did "Alec" come from???

FROM ALEXANDER, Cecily and Gabriel's younger son (the one Tatiana took in the ball in CoT) Anna and Christopher Lightwoods' BROTHER

(Who continued the Lightwood bloodline and is the reason Alec and Izzy exist)

[cortanas-wielder]

Cassandra Clare, the commidic genius that you are

[the-best-of-the-myrmidona]

hear me out

Anna and Izzy would get along so well.

Gabriel and Alex would absolutely adore each other

Gideon and Robert might hit it off.

Cecily would box Stephen around the ears

So would James and Cordelia

Will would teach Jace the Demon Pox Song

They would feed the ducks in Central Park poultry pies too

Kit would also be there

Jesse would be surprised that ty is the only one with blackthorn hair while everyone else looks like Lucie.

Gabriel would be deathly afraid of Max

And Rafael

Any more?

Gabriel: Cecily, I can’t seem to think of—

Cecily: where you placed your brain?

Gabriel:

Cecily: that’s probably why you can’t seem to think

The Lightwood Family face card

[tys-kitty]

Me reading yet another TSC series where Cassie decided that three Lightwood siblings are way too much and kills yet another one of them

[inkstainedwhisper]

Some days I'm happy, other days I think about the 𝘊𝘭𝘰𝘤𝘬𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘗𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 epilogue and burst into tears

[witchlingcirce]

I’m always kind of upset that there is such a lack of content for the other couples in the infernal devices series !

Cecily & Gabriel, Henry & Charlotte, Sophie and Gideon!!

I was really surprised that none of them got even a short story to themselves, or even one in better in black! I think it’s such a shame because of these couples are so cute. I would love for a short story of like, when Charlotte and Henry first got married I could imagine how sweet and awkward it would be.

Cecily and Gabriel Imo are too underrated in the fandom for cute and amazing they are. Obviously there relationship does not get as much page time as it deserves (because there only present in clockwork princess) but there RELATIONSHIP IS SO CUTE. Honestly we deserved so much of them 😭😭 Cecily and Gabriel I will avenge you.

And there’s also something so cute about both Gideon and Sophie being in love with each other, I could talk about the scones scene for the rest of my life.
