reminder that isabelle lightwood was one of the few people who could make magnus feel underdressed

I just realised Ash is probably bisexual because he’s a faerie

Matthew walked so Ash could RUN

Clary forcing Simon to practice "coming out" to his mother as a Vampire is peak comedy

ive been dying at "The second thing you should know is that it isn't a choice. I was born this way. Sorry, reborn this way." for the past five minutes ahahaha

I wonder if anna would be proud of alec for dating magnus and being a revolutionary and openly homosexual consul or if she would be disgusted by his fashion sense

“Alec?” Magnus was staring at him. He had dispatched the remaining Iblis demons, and the square was empty but for the two of them. “Did you just—did you just save my life?”

Alec knew he ought to say something like, Of course, because I’m a Shadowhunter and that’s what we do, or That’s my job. Jace would have said something like that. Jace always knew the right thing to say. But the words that actually came out of Alec’s mouth were quite different—and sounded petulant, even to his own ears. “You never called me back,” he said. “I called you so many times and you never called me back.”

Magnus looked at Alec as if he’d lost his mind. “Your city is under attack,” he said. “The wards have broken, and the streets are full of demons. And you want to know why I haven’t called you?”

Alec set his jaw in a stubborn line. “I want to know why you haven’t called me back.”

Magnus threw his hands up in the air in a gesture of utter exasperation. Alec noted with interest that when he did it, a few sparks escaped from his fingertips, like fireflies escaping from a jar. “You’re an idiot.”

“Is that why you didn’t call me? Because I’m an idiot?”

“No.” Magnus strode toward him. “I didn’t call you because I’m tired of you only wanting me around when you need something. I’m tired of watching you be in love with someone else—someone, incidentally, who will never love you back. Not the way I do.”

“You love me?”

“You stupid Nephilim,” Magnus said patiently. “Why else am I here? Why else would I have spent the past few weeks patching up all your moronic friends every time they got hurt? And getting you out of every ridiculous situation you found yourself in? Not to mention helping you win a battle against Valentine. And all completely free of charge!”

“I hadn’t looked at it that way,” Alec admitted.

“Of course not. You never looked at it in any way.” Magnus’s cat eyes shone with anger. “I’m seven hundred years old, Alexander. I know when something isn’t going to work. You won’t even admit I exist to your parents.”

Alec stared at him. “I thought you were three hundred! You’re seven hundred years old?”

“Well,” Magnus amended, “eight hundred. But I don’t look it. Anyway, you’re missing the point. The point is—”

But Alec never found out what the point was, because at that moment a dozen more Iblis demons flooded into the square. He felt his jaw drop. “Damn it.”

Magnus followed his gaze. The demons were already fanning out into a half circle around them, their yellow eyes glowing. “Way to change the subject, Lightwood.”

“Tell you what.” Alec reached for a second seraph blade. “We live through this, and I promise I’ll introduce you to my whole family.”

Magnus raised his hands, his fingers shining with individual azure flames. They lit his grin with a fiery blue glow. “It’s a deal.”

TMI: the characters are as strong as the plots

TID: the characters are stronger than the plots

TDA: the plots are stronger than the characters

TLH: the characters are stronger than the plots

Is this unpopular opinion?

I’m excited to see Tavvy in his inquisitive 10 yr old boy era and see how his relationship with Helen and Aline has developed

Because I think that Aline would sign herself and Tavvy up for surfing lessons

But I also hc that Aline starts speaking Mandarin with Tavvy

Bc when Haline has their own kid Aline would speak mandarin with them and Tavvy is *her kid* now

And Tavvy has always loved stories and language and he is excited to have a language that his siblings don’t know so he takes to it quite well

Plus I think this would lead to some iconic Tavvy moments in TWP

BECAUSE

Jem is in charge of Kit’s training and ofc I think that Jem would cover all the regular shadowhunter demon languages and martial arts training

But I think that Jem would add in learning an Instrument and learning Mandarin into Kit’s training

(Esp bc Jem will speak mandarin with Mina and Tessa already knows it)

Therefore what I need to see happen

Is sometime mid TWP Ty and Kit have made it back to the LA institute and they’re having a big Blackthorn Family dinner.

And Ty says something to Kit and Kit responds under his breath in mandarin “i love you”

Kit ofc doesn’t expect anyone to hear him, much less understand

But Mr Nosy “I will never be left behind on info again” Tavvy is like loudly “Kit why did you just tell Ty that you love him?”

[carelessflower]

you have to be a whole other level of gay and religiously traumatized to recognize this location

[tys-kitty]

Cassie really took the whole miscommunication trope to a new level with Herondaisy and KitTy

[aeskidz]

we don't talk enough about how raziel had to deal with tmi gang twice in the span of a few weeks when he wasn't summoned since shadowhunters were created, it's sooo freaking funny bcs clary had one single wish & she was like "hey can you revive my bf I love him a lot" then you have simon -a vampire- summoning him in the middle of a farm and straight up telling him he's gonna annoy the shit out of him forever til he gives them a weapon to save jace and might I add, he also partly blamed raziel for what was happening 😭😭 imagine being this great angel & you get played like this by a bunch of teenagers (& magnus) who have nothing but the power of friendship and love😭 I know he went back to heaven pissed AWFFF

Jace: Aren’t you gay? Alec: This implies I did something heterosexual. If so, I apologize.

everyone moved on their favorite character is Kit or Ty or Julian

and then there's me

with my little short temperature redhead with a crazy family, a werewolf as a half dad and angelic blood, that in her life has only kissed her brothers🎀:

[im-out-of-it]

while I’m doing my rewatch and analysis of every episode, I do want to mention a small thing

1. season one is not my favorite but-

2. Magnus is vastly underrated in the whole season

3. every single outfit he wears is iconic in itself

4. the makeup

5. the facial expressions (CALM THE FLIRTATIONS MAGS WE KNOW YOU LOVE ALEC)

6. THE ICONIC INTRODUCTION

7. and Alec is a whole mood

I think season one is hard or exhausting for some of us to watch (coming from a Malec fan) because we don’t watch to watch Alec be sad about jace and we don’t want CLACE scenes and we don’t like the bad cgi but at least it’s the start of Malec. I don’t know if this is unpopular but I prefer Magnus’s style in season one the most. the waistcoats, the eye shadow, the different colors of hair, I could go on 🥹

IM SORRY I JUST LOVE HIM SO MUCH (but Alec also has my heart) 🏳️‍⚧️

OKAY IM DONE BUT I LOVE THEM BOTH
