Shout-out to Cassandra Clare for appreciating the intimacy of characters calling each other by their full names when everyone else uses a nickname for them

the fact Will and Jem only knew each other for 6 years, and were parabatai for even less, before they were separated and yet their bond was so strong that it inspired multiple different parabatai pairs is so

I think about this more often than I’d like to admit.

“Whoever you have loved, and however you loved them,” said Jem, “anyone you loved would be lucky.”

Jem crying as he talks about the Herondales I-

i think jem (always described as good and kind and soft) talking about his feelings and his love in a way that is actually rather selfish is so insane.

like... he wants something, he wants tessa and will and he wants them to himself. he feels for them in a way that is greedy and selfish, and its depicted so beautifully in perfect contrast with the pristine image and idea you usually have of jem.

the jem who is "nothing but goodness", the jem who is usually depicted and seen as racional and calm — is also a jem that loves to the fullest. a jem that wants his loved ones for himself and himself only, who only allows himself to be this selfish and greedy for them.

it adds so much to his character because it's this greediness, this love that is so strong and big, that helps him keep his humanity during his years in the brotherhood. as long as he remembered will and tessa, he would always be james carstairs. he would not be brother zachariah. he would always be their jem.

one of the best trilogies I've ever read

[mayaheronthorn]

Anyone saying this is not a love confession is fucking blind

Will is so incredibly vulnerable around Jem, so hurt by the thought that Jem could resent him. This is THE love confession

“Are they lovers?”

Worse.
