the thing about the tmi incest plot is that some people act like it was portrayed in a positive light, but it really wasn't?? both clary and jace new how fucked up it was, as well as the people around them.

i don;t remember who wrote it, but i saw a post on here one time that said something along the lines of that valentine telling clary and jace that they're siblings was an extreme form of parental abuse. and don't see enough people talking about it in that light.

(on a more lighthearted note: as someone who read tid before tmi, the incest plot didn't really bother me since i already knew who jace's real parents were by reading the found family tree 🤭)

yes exactly!! jace and clary knew, because they experienced (somewhat) loving families!! that’s why it caused them sm pain!! but sebastian didn’t understand/though it was okay, because he never experienced that!! AND VALENTINE KNEW!!! he knew how it would affect them!! he did what he did knowing it would hurt clary and jace and obsess sebastian!
