Blackthorn Names

"What's your middle name?" Cress asked suddenly, unable to take the silence anymore. James looked up, arching an eyebrow at her. "It's for my notes."

     She didn't miss the way the corner of his mouth twitched, as though he was fighting a smile. "It's Arthur."

     "James Arthur Blackthorn? How... antiquated."

     James looked back down at the bike. Cress figured she should not have found the way his hands moved, long fingers quick and precise, as fascinating as she did. Heat rushed to her cheeks and she was not entirely sure why. "My father had an uncle," he said softly. "His name was Arthur."

     "I thought you said all the Blackthorns before you father's generation died before you were born."

     "They did."

     Oh. Cress tapped her pencil against her notebook. "So, are you all named to honor someone?"

     "For the most part," James said, grunting as he pulled hard on the wrench. He's good with his hands... shut UP Cressida! "Andy and Cori are named after my grandparents: Andrew and Eleanor Blackthorn, John and Cordelia Carstairs. I'm for Sadie's father and dad's uncle. Claire is for Aunt Clary and my Aunt Livvy who died. And then Cris is for Tia Cristina and Uncle Ty." He finally looked back up at her. The low light made his eyes seem a soft brown, maybe even hazel.

     Cress realized that was a lot of loss in one family. "Your father is a strong man," she said softly. James's eyes shuttered.

     "He is."

     "I can see where you get it now."

     James choked. If she didn't know better, Cress would have sworn she saw a faint blush stain his cheeks.

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.”

[rohsolism]

Just remembered how Grace had men in her life wanting her for her beauty and never bothering to know about her other qualities and Christopher Lightwood being the first man who admired her for her intelligence and her brain and Sophie after her scar said that now she will know who loves her truly and how Gideon Lightwood told her that he admired for her character, bravery and her beauty. Oh Lightwood men you will always be loved by men.

Do you think parabatai celebrate their anniversaries? Like every year on the day of their parabatai ceremony they go out and find cool demons to fight together? Or, in true Shadowhunter fashion, they give each other weapons? Do they have certain weapons for each anniversary (i.e. dagger for ten years, sword for 20, spear for 30, etc.) Because if they don’t they should totally start doing this.

[generalcollectionparadise]

in each pair of parabatai there is one who is eager to find adventures on his head, and their faithful parabatai who is trying to save him:
