Jace: Clary suspects she might be pregnant and... I'm actually terrified. Do you have any parenting advice for me?
Alec: They smell fear, don't fear them. And whatever you do, don't look them in the eye.
Magnus: ALEC!

Alec was on his feet now. His seraph blade was in his hand. He shot a look of contempt at Sammael. “Michael,” he said, and as the sword blazed up with holy name, Sammael visibly inched at the sound of the archangel’s name. Magnus felt a wave of pride. Not everyone could diss a Prince of Hell so artfully.
Michael is the name of the Archangel who defeated Sammael and it is also the middle name of Alec's son. Maxwell Michael Lightwood-Bane.
I just think how Alec when in battle can use both his son's names and lit up the seraph blade. Rafael. Michael. Alec loves both his children to infinity and I am so sure of that.
It's so beautiful to know the fact that Alec thinks of his family and heads into a battle.
And, the way Magnus is proud of Alec makes this moment even better. Also, props to Alec's sassiness.

10 Fandoms, 10 Characters, 10 Tags
Thanks @ellorypurebloodculture!
Sorry it took so long.
Also no particular order since I can't pick a favorite out of them either.
Duo Maxwell
I can't remember when I started loving him but I do. He's outgoing and just so truthful and honest and caring. There are more reasons but I adore him.
Tim Drake
I love Tim. He's my favorite Robin, the one I grew up reading (even if I never read how he became Robin in the first place) and the one I know best. He's who I wanted to be like when I was younger (they all were actually).
Bucky Barnes
Baby boy has been through a lot but he's always bounced back. He's a great in proving that you can go through hell and make it to the other side.
Fun fact, he used to look like this:


(from Wikipedia and Google/Pinterest)
He's worse than Steve in the fact that until Marvel redid him he actually went to war as an actual kid. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucky_Barnes)
He's a rebel.
Clint Barton
He's a little shit (to me), a circus brat, gave us Lucky and is hot in his own way. He lives off pizza, which is how he met Lucky (if I'm recalling correctly), owns his apartment building (or did), and helps his community.


Katsuki Bakugo (or is it Bakugou?)
He's all knowing, to him, swears up a storm, you can tell he cares for Izuku even if he doesn't act like it, same with the rest of the class, is smart as heck especially because of his quirk, and is learning to be a better person, slowly.
Draco Malfoy
Arrogant, mama’s boy (even if he says his dad all the time), handsome, obsessed with Harry, I love his smile, and just him in general
Alec Lightwood
Sweet, harsh, baby boy. His smile, his shyness, his overall love for his family, and he just wants to do the correct thing. I love Jace but I picked Alec for this.
Sam Winchester


He’s Dean’s world, John loves him, he’s the baby of the two brothers and uses that to his advantage. Smart, pretty, deadly, nice, and sweet. He’s everything a person would want.
Kurt Hummel


He knows exactly what he was and will work for it. He’s so confident and he’s handsome also. He’s a great person and friend and while he has his ups and downs, as everyone does, he’s not afraid to try things.
JD Dunne

He’s the youngest of the seven, the official sheriff (it’s all of them, he just took the actual job and Chris is in charge), he’s eager to do what’s correct, Buck literally took him under his wing from the get go (which got Chris to start liking him), he adores his friends and family, and he’s handsome as heck.
One extra because people might consider Bucky and Clint part of the same fandom.
Rodney McKay


He’s an asshole and knows it. Is one of the smartest people on Atlantis, there are a lot of them, scared to death of crap but still does it. He's also a bastard but that is him. He cares in his own way and loves his family and friends. He won't give up and just keeps going. He's my favorite person in the whole universe. I love him.

We're finally going to learn about the Trueblood cousins, I've been waiting for this for YEARS!! I'M SO EXCITED
I also hope she'll someday explain who those Lightwood cousins are that Alec mentions in his dream in CoHF and if Robert and Martin Gladstone were first cousins, if Martin had children and Alec and Isabelle have second cousins Gladstone
Will we get to see clary and jace in the wicked powers? How are they doing?
Well, at the beginning, they're fine like everyone else! You will see them in TWP — and there's a story about them in Better in Black that also involves Maryse's lost brother (remember, he married a mundane and got his Marks stripped) which I think is really fun.

Every change in the new flower card book
Because I think about this series a normal amount, I went through my old copy of "An Illustrated History of Notable Shadowhunters and Denizens of Downworld" from 2016 and my new kickstarter edition that arrived yesterday, and took notes on every change. Some characters were added, some were given new art or facts, some had their information updated, and some are the same as they ever were. I split all these changes into categories, so you can look up what interests you. Full spoilery details below the cut.
First off, the general formatting was changed slightly. Instead of characters being split into categories based on series (TID, TLH, TMI, TFSA, TDA) and alphabatized by first name within those categories, they're all in one cohesive list that's alphabatized by surname.
So, to start with, there were a couple overall changes. In my old edition, characters had their common names listed above their flower card (ex: Alec Lightwood), and their full names on the page to the left that held their facts and stuff (ex: Alexander Gideon Lightwood). Some characters also have their maiden name on their flower card but their married name on the fact page, or vice versa (Celine Montclaire and Celine Herondale, or Helen Blackthorn and Helen Penhallow-Blackthorn). In the new edition, everyone is referred to by only one name, the common name that was already on the flower card. The section in the personal information for married/maiden name was also removed for all characters except Sophie Collins, Jocelyn Fray, Tessa Gray, Cecily Herondale, Imogen Herondale, Maryse Lightwood, and Jessamine Lovelace Gray. Characters with minor alterations to how their name is written: Helen Penhallow-Blackthorn became Helen Blackthorn Julian Atticus Blackthorn became Julian Blackthorn Mark Antony Blackthorn became Mark Blackthorn Emma Cordelia Carstairs became Emma Carstairs Charles Buford Fairchild became Charles Fairchild Charlotte Branwell became Charlotte Fairchild Clary Adele Fray became Clary Fray Amatis Herondale became Amatis Graymark Linette Owens became Linette Herondale Stephen William Herondale became Stephen Herondale William Owen Herondale became Will Herondale Alexander Gideon Lightwood became Alec Lightwood Isabelle Sophia Lightwood became Isabelle Lightwood Maxwell Joseph Lightwood became Max Lightwood Celine Herondale became Celine Montclaire Jonathan Christopher Morgenstern became Jonathan Morgenstern Jonathan Fairchild Morgenstern became "True" Jonathan Morgenstern Axel Mortmain (Hollingworth Shade) became Axel Mortmain Aline Blackthorn-Penhallow became Aline Penhallow Jaime Rocio Rosales became Jaime Rosales Woolsey Marmaduke Scott became Woolsey Scott Bartholomew Velasquez became Bat Velasquez All of these names are unchanged on the actual flower cards, it's just that the names on the fact page have been changed to match the names already on the flower cards.
Characters with alterations to their personal information: Magnus Bane's birth year was changed from "unknown" to "early 1600s" Arthur Blackthorn's birth year was changed from 1973 to 1964, though 1973 still makes more sense with the timeline and I believe that 1964 is a mistake. Drusilla Blackthorn's favorite weapon changes from unknown to "her sister Livvy's saber," and Rosewain is added to her family Livia Blackthorn has Rosewain added to her family Octavian Blackthorn has Rosewain added to his family Tatiana Blackthorn's favorite weapon is changed from n/a to demonic magic Tiberius Blackthorn's birth year is changed from 1997 to 1993 (which has to be a typo, Livvy is still born in 1997), his favorite weapon is changed from quarterstaff to sling weapon, and Rosewain is added to his family Alastair Carstairs's family name is changed from Turan to Jahanshah, and his favorite weapon is changed from Cortana to spears Cordelia Carstairs's family name is changed from Turan to Jahanshah Jem Carstairs's birth year is changed from 1861 to 1860 Sona Carstairs's birth year is changed from 1850 to 1861 (the new year matches better with the TLH timeline), her maiden name is changed from Turan to Jahanshah, and her previous married name of Verlac is removed Lily Chen's birth year is changed from unknown to 1885 Sophie Collins's favorite weapon is changed from hand mirror to hairbrush Charlotte Fairchild's favorite weapon is changed from sword to whip Matthew Fairchild's favorite weapon is changed from rapier to chalikers Nathanial Gray has Moore added to his family Gwyn ap Nudd's favorite weapon is changed from unknown to sword carved from the bone of a redcap Cecily Herondale has Owens added to her family James Herondale's family name is changed from Gray to Gray/Starkweather Lucie Herondale's family name is changed from Gray to Gray/Starkweather, and axe is added to her favorite weapons Will Herondale's birth year is changed from 1861 to 1860, and Owens is added to his family Anna Lightwood has whip added to her favorite weapons Jaime Rosales's favorite weapon is changed from poison to crossbow
Characters with new details added to their fun facts: Lady Midnight is changed to Lady Midnight AKA Annabel Blackthorn, and her fun fact has information about Annabel added onto the legend of Lady Midnight Drusilla Blackthorn gets a completely new fact about rigging up a projector to show Night of the Living Dead at the new Shadowhunter Academy Helen Blackthorn has the last sentence of her fact changed to say that she's no longer banished to Wrangel Island Livia Blackthorn has a completely new fact about Livia's Watch Tiberius Blackthorn gets a new fact about a mystery he solved at the Schoolmance Jem Carstairs has a new sentence added to the end of his fact acknowledging his new family with Tessa, Mina, and Kit Sona Carstairs gets a new fact explaining the retcon about her poisoning Theodor Verlac by saying that as a youth she was attacked by a demon that caused untrue rumors about her to spread and be believed Church has the last sentence of his fact changed to say that he's retired with Jem rather than at the LA institute Ragnor Fell has a new sentence added to his fact saying that he and Catarina have been going on adventures together since he came out of hiding Gwyn ap Nudd has a new sentence added to his fact saying that he's now able to confide his troubles in Diana Jace Herondale has a new half sentence added to his fact Kieran has two new sentences added to his fact about his reign as Unseelie King Alec Lightwood has new sentences added to his fact about his role in the Clave-in-exile Alien Penhallow has a new sentence added to his fact about how she's no longer banished to Wrangel Island Jia Penhallow has the last sentence of her fact changed to no longer reference being separated from her daughter Maia Roberts has a sentence added to her fact about her role in the Shadowhunter-Downworlder Alliance Diego Rosales has a new sentence added to his fact about his new role as the Inquisitor
Characters with new art in the new book: Drusilla Blackthorn Alastair Carstairs Cordelia Carstairs Jaime Rosales
Characters added in the new book: Adaon Ash Paige Ashdown Inquisitor Bridgestock Mina Carstairs Zara Dearborn Oliver Hayward Kit Herondale Janus Jarog the Enraged Divya Joshi Shinyun Jung Ke Yi Tian Claude Kellington Eugenia Lightwood Rayan Maduabuchi Nene Oban Thais Pedroso The Riders of Mannan Hypatia Vex Manuel Villalobos
Characters unchanged from the old book: Cameron Ashdown The Band (Eric, Kirk, and Matt) Camille Belcourt Grace Blackthorn Jesse Blackthorn Henry Branwell Maureen Brown The Dark Sisters Malcolm Fade Jocelyn Fray Luke Garroway Tessa Gray Edmund Herondale Imogen Herondale Tobias Herondale Jordan Kyle Simon Lewis Benedict Lightwood Gabriel Lightwood Gideon Lightwood Maryse Lightwood Robert Lightwood Thomas Lightwood Max Michael Lightwood-Bane Rafael Santiago Lightwood-Bane Catarina Loss George Lovelace Jessamine Lovelace Gray Meliorn Beatriz Velez Mendoza Chairman Meow Valentine Morgenstern Alexei de Quincey Raziel Johnny Rook Cristina Mendoza Rosales Raphael Santiago Seelie Queen Jonathan Shadowhunter Hodge Starkweather Michael Wayland Diana Wrayburn Brother Zachariah
Characters left out from the old book: Asmodeus (it's literally just him I don't know why he wasn't included in the new one)
Anyways, I know this is a lot of dense information that might not be interesting to everyone, but I had fun putting it all together (because there is no joy like cross-referencing). Obviously there might be some mistakes because I am a failible human, but this should be more or less everything. If anybody wants exact wording on the changed/added facts then just ask and I can tell you.

rambling about my sebastian """redemption""" au lest it consume me alive before i get around to writing it properly: part 1 of ???, major plot differences
disclaimer: i don't like or pity sebastian as a person. he does compel me as a character, though, in his own twisted way, and that is why the au exists in the first place. many of the things sebastian has done in the books are unforgiveable (his attempted assault of clary is most obvious, and his killing of max lightwood), and this au is not attempting to """redeem""" that version of sebastian. this is a different world, where things are slightly better, for the world and the people in it, and as the late jonathan morgenstern once hoped, "if there are other worlds, then maybe there is one where i was a good brother and a good son." in the case of this au... well, redemption is in heavy quotes for a reason. this au is attempting to explore a sebastian who is, while not (yet) entirely remorseful for his actions, is aware that there is a path laid out for him, first by valentine and later lilith, that he doesn't particularly want to go down. this is also just my own personal playground/rewrite of how tsc handles its sociopolitics. and some of the characters. (other than sebastian, obviously)
CONTENT WARNING: brief discussion of incest (skip past part 1, point 3)
PART I: The Mortal Instruments
1. sebastian and the non-death of max lightwood
the first change that kicks off the timeline is that sebastian, for whatever reason, holds back when attacking max lightwood, and again when attacking isabelle, who is left only just conscious enough to give max a rune that, while it saves his life, leaves him in a feverish coma for weeks. if you've read shadowhunter academy, this would be a similar rune-rejection fevercoma that robert lightwood went through, though exacerbated given max's younger age.
i will elaborate on max's character later on/in another post, but his being alive does affect how much his family and clary are willing to eventually tolerate sebastian. some are still horrified at him attacking a child, but with a guy as messed up as sebastian, you have to take what you can get. their limits are incredibly stretched, though, when maxwell demands sebastian become his mentor in a "teach me everything you know, and then i'll take my revenge and kill you" way. as i said, i'll elaborate more later.
2. the fall of idris
this is not really related much directly to sebastian's character development as it is to the others, but definitely a large elephant in the room. for reasons i will figure out later on (that are definitely related to my exploration of shadowhunter systematic bigotry), valentine partially succeeds in destroying idris, which is now overtaken with demons. shadowhunters destabilized and decentralized, though a good many have relocated to the london institute for safety. also alec, isabelle, jace, and clary are somewhat excommunicated for reasons of clary's alliance rune and rallying downworlder aid.
3. jace and clary are not in a relationship
i wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the character changes, but given the entire tmi series revolves around these two and their weird, WEIRD romance with each other, i'm putting it here. yeah, not a jlary fan. the adopted son of your father is STILL your brother, and jace and clary acknowledge valentine's fatherhood multiple times.
HOWEVER (and this comes with an incredibly huge disclaimer) i am already attempting to explore some pretty heavy topics in this au, and incestuous feelings are one of these topics. while there will be no mutually-reciprocated incest in my au, the fact of the matter is that clary and jace did experience romantic and physical attraction for one another, and sebastian experienced physical attraction towards clary. the thing is that, especially on clary's end, the full psychological impact of these things is not fully addressed in my opinion. her first kiss turned out to be from her brother, and then her other brother kissed and assaulted her via deception.
clary deserves better than to just end up with jace for reasons i cannot fathom. she deserves to process her father being a fascist, her mother lying to her for her whole life, and the fact she can never return to being a normal girl. i'll speak more on what i'm doing with her character later on.
4. the ultimate bad guy of tmi is your own unchecked prejudice and bigotry (or rather, jace's)
a huge sticking point for me with tmi has always been the main characters's pretty blatant prejudice towards downworlders and "mundanes", without ever being properly called out or made to actually sit and think about what they've internalized. they were raised in a society that breeds bigotry like the circle, and the only reason the circle was considered dangerous was because they chose to attack the clave alongside downworlders. and jace was raised by their leader, and then by two of its high-ranking members, and is never called out for his treatment of especially simon. in this au, the demonic parabatai bond, while still favoring sebastian's autonomy, amplifies the similarities between two participants's darkest sides. because jace and sebastian are so fundamentally similar, raised by the same man to have similar values, jace becomes "evil" because those impulses, his arrogance, his unquestioned bigotry, his instinct for violence, are all made even stronger.
at the battle of the burren, jace is never stabbed by glorious, but lilith severs the bond at sebastian's request. (lilith strikes me as a mom who doesn't really understand her child; she thinks sebastian is just going through a phase, and humors him.) however, jace is still consumed by his worst impulses, taking the endarkened circle to idris with lilith's aid. there, clary and the others, alongside sebastian and a newly formed downworlder coalition, face down jace and stab him with glorious. afterwards, realizing all he's done, jace chooses to have his marks stripped from him in order to atone.
5. the formation of the downworlder-nephilim allianceale
alec's insistence of changing the system from within the system... annoys me, for the same reason people who say to reform instead of defund the police annoy me. when the system is so fundamentally broken it enables murderers and fascists, there is no salvaging it. when the barrel is filled with rotting apples, there is no "finding a good one" in it; even the most pristine-looking of the bunch will be tainted by its proximity to the others.
which is why this au is severely overhauling downworlder relations, to be a storyline less about "magic cops are actually the only thing keeping you alive so you need us" to actually empowering downworlders to take care of themselves and each other. there was a world without shadowhunters, there will be one after, and downworlders will continue to exist with or without them. after all, shadowhunters are just an organization at the end of the day.
forming the downworlder-nephilim alliance leads to the defeat of lilith, a victory won through collective community effort rather than just the actions of a handful of people like it was against sebastian. and it's the end of the circle, once and for all.
6. clary joins the praetor lupus
the praetor lupus really show up to stop luke from dying and then get wiped out. this is genuinely insane to me, considering they're the only organization formed by downworlders to help other downworlders, something which apparently has just never happened in all of a thousand or more years? there are so many avenues to go with something like the praetor, like having them help unite werewolves and vampires because of their work helping fledglings, or maybe even starting a vampire branch of the praetor lupus, or expanding across the country. there are characters like alec, who could reach out regarding a downworlder-nephilim alliance, or simon, who was directly helped by them.
but i choose clary because... well, clary is a very directionless character. she becomes a hero, sure, but that's less something she aspired to be and more something she became out of necessity. i don't think she makes many decisions that don't revolve around jace in specific, or another man in her life. i think clary should make a choice for herself, and if she's a hero, then she should aspire to help people, especially people who are marginalized and unsupported like she and simon once were. and yes, i know the praetor lupus only accept, well, lupus, but in my au, let's just say they're eventually convinced to expand their recruiting pool.
7. sebastian becomes tessa gray's apprentice
this might be the most self-indulgent part of the au, and this is literally the au where nobody dies and everyone is happy (well, almost). my biggest problem with the supposed cause of sebastian's evil being his demon blood corrupting him, and not him being raised by a fascist to be a remorseless child soldier, has always been the fact that... tessa and james and lucie exist. sebastian is quite literally not as special as he's been told his whole life, nor is he biologically incapable of anything but causing pain and destruction. i know that cassandra clare probably didn't write sebastian with full foresight of the gray-herondales, but with hindsight, it reveals a huge flaw in the narrative's logic. anyhow, all this to say that i believe tessa and jem could be a good influence on sebastian. also, if you haven't guessed by my url, this au's sebastian ends up something of a warlock.
PART II: The Eldest Curses
1. the morgenstern family european roadtrip
this part is probably going to be the shortest, given the last book of the trilogy won't release for another... 2 years, at the minimum. this isn't technically a change, as we are fully into au territory now, and how shinyun jung got the svefnthorn was (unfortunately) interrupted by magnus (i wish we'd gotten something about it. alas). to make it brief, clary, jace, and sebastian go on a (you guessed it) family roadtrip around europe, just to try and ease the weird and awkward tenseness between them whenever they were in the same building.
it doesn't go great: clary and jace fight over directions while she drives, sebastian starts going crazy hallucinating his father's voice, which leads them to a strange warlock woman looking for a sword sebastian is convinced he was meant to find. their other escapades include getting wine-drunk, becoming temporary babysitters of a very blue baby, meeting a second cousin they didn't know they had... and sebastian realizes whose voice he's been listening to the whole time.
2. sebastian's stepfather tries to recruit him into a doomsday cult
the lost book of the white had me hooked the moment ragnor mentioned sammael was looking for sebastian because lilith asked him to. it got me wondering how on earth that meeting would go, and especially since this sebastian is ostensibly trying not to destroy the world with the help of demonic forces. sebastian is sort of unable to fully refuse, though, but it does help that he's his mother's special little boy, and that sammael loves lilith very, very much.
i have yet to discover anything that would have to change, and therefore until further notice, nothing does, except the lost book of the white has sebastian creeping around in the background. not exactly a major change, i suppose, but better to mention it early than leave it oddly hanging. sebastian and ragnor could have a conversation regarding jocelyn, i suppose...
PART III: The Dark Artifices
1. i'm actually planning to turn this into a fic, so i don't think i can spoil anything in this post
exactly what it says on the tin. this fic is actually the main reason i'm posting on this blog. also this is far down the post enough that i can be more frank with you: i don't really want to have to rewrite city of fallen angels to heavenly fire just to get to the stuff that fascinates me the most, which is what this fic involves. to give you a sneak peek, sebastian joins a necromancy cult, comes to terms with being a father, and helps find the lost herondale; maxwell lightwood and livia blackthorn team up; and a war between the seelie and unseelie court brews in the distance...

Every Single Thing I Have Ever Shipped!
Okay, let me be clear with a disclaimer that this has been throughout my entire life, and obviously, media targeted towards children that are mentioned are most definitely in the past.
I have them formatted with a small chunk of info as to why I ship/shipped them. I sorted them in order of how weird I think they are, from plain vanilla to the esoteric. I am also going to have a checkmark [✅] signifier that will indicate whether I've read fics for the ship or not.
This is a long one, so turn away while you still can, because "keep reading" will kill you unless you're actually invested, which, I don't know why you would be.
Also, this couldn't possibly be everything I have ever shipped. But it's as much as I could possibly think of.
Heartstopper
Nick Nelson/Charlie Spring ✅
I love these two, and even though I figured out most of the things about my sexuality before Heartopper graced my screen, Nick Nelson still had a very similar, albeit not identical, journey of discovery to mine, which makes me even more attached.
Elle Argent/Tao Xu ✅
They are so adorable. I love what their relationship represents and their dynamic in the sense of their attachment to each other. Like most people, I think I got a bit frustrated on their first date scene, but it was understandable, so that’s just a small gripe I have.
Darcy Olsson/Tara Jones ✅
I already made a post talking about how I felt about the foil between Darcy and B*n, but my opinion boils down to ‘the girlboss is slaying despite her situation,’ and I think Tara is an amazing girlfriend for her and they genuinely made me cry.
Bridgerton
Colin Bridgerton/Penelope Featherington ✅
Bruh. Just look at my acc.
Supernatural
Dean Winchester/Castiel ✅
I could not be more late to Destiel and the queerbaiting was murderous, but I still love the ship. They also trigger my religious trauma sometimes but I never claimed to value my mental health, so yeah.
Samuel Winchester/Eileen Leahy ✅
C’mon, she was the only fit that I loved for Sam other than Jess. She could not be any cuter with him and I just think they’re adorable af. Another reason to hate 15x20.
Shadowhunters
Magnus Bane/Alec Lightwood ✅
Are you joking? How could I watch this show and not ship it? They’ve made me straight-up sob on multiple occasions. The immortality thing does depress me, but I can live with it.
Simon Lewis/Isabelle Lightwood ✅
God, when I tell you this ship single-handedly revived my interest in the nerd/hot person trope I am not lying. They’re honestly too perfect for each other sometimes.
Lord of the Rings
Frodo Baggins/Samwise Gamgee
“Sam.” But meme aside, I was fighting tears by the end. Honestly, I love their dynamic as it is, but I could still see a romantic reading.
Aragorn/Arwen Undómiel
Fuck, they got me so invested it’s not even funny. I felt less attached to them than I could’ve been but I still loved the dynamic and rooted for them so much.
Star Wars
Anakin Skywalker/Padmé Amidala
I think everyone loves this ship as a tragedy to some degree, even if you hate the prequels. Plus Clone Wars just made me sad af all over again so they deserve a spot on the list.
Star Trek
James Kirk/Spock ✅
Okay, you got me, I never watched an ounce of Star Trek besides Spirk content. And even from a peripheral view knowing that Kirk is supposed to be a lady's man, they’re still gay beyond reason.
The Nanny
Fran Fine/Maxwell Sheffield
This show was my childhood, I think I started watching it with my family when I was under 10. Anyway, I feel like they were a slow burn done correctly. Wholesome as all hell, plus Fran is an amazing character and I love how she integrated herself into the family the right way.
C. C. Babcock/Niles
You cannot deny that the “I loathe you” kiss was perfect. They hated each other for so long, and I get the dislike of that aspect to the relationship, but they still made them believable without squashing their pre-established chemistry.
H20: Just Add Water
Cleo Sertori/Lewis McCartney
I cannot believe that Sea Change and the episode where Lewis left made me cry. I must’ve watched Sea Change like 50 million times because it was just peak cinema to me, but I couldn’t watch Lewis leaving again because it crushed my soul so violently. The moment when he came back with that sweeping camera motion made me audibly gasp and kick my legs. It was that bad.
Rikki Chadwick/Zane Bennett
I’m really sad they didn’t work it out in the end, although I completely understand Rikki and I wouldn’t want to go back to Zayne myself. Although it did seem like Zayne was trying to make things right with her in the last episode? But Mako Mermaids didn’t show her with Zayne, so I’m inclined to believe they never made up.
Yuri On Ice
Yuri Katsuki/Victor Nikiforov ✅
When I tell you I fully screamed at the kiss scene AND the proposal, I am not lying. They were just the ship you freak out over, you know?
Yuri Plisetsky/Otabek Altin ✅
Welcome To The Madness made me open my third eye. I didn’t ship them before then, even though I did think they would be good together.
Free!
Makoto Tachibana/Haruka Nanase ✅
This was my OTP ride-or-die for a solid year. I’m still very fond of the ship because I joined the fandom just when the war was ending so I didn’t experience a lot of toxicity.
Rei Ryugazaki/Nagisa Hazuki ✅
These two were perpetually second place, but I still adored the dynamic and was obsessed with two specific fics for ages.
Rin Matsuoka/Sousuke Yamazaki ✅
Is perpetually in third place. I’m not as invested in this ship, but a fic would get +5 points if it was a side pairing, you know? That vibe.
Kuroko No Basket
Tetsuya Kuroko/Taiga Kagami
I’ll be honest, I only like this ship by aesthetics alone, and I haven't seen enough of this show to really get into the fandom, because, you know, I dropped off of sports anime. I still like how they look, but I just don’t care about them enough.
Pirates of the Caribbean
Elizabeth Swann/Will Turner
Like, I don’t think I need to explain myself here. The sheer sexual energy present in this ship is suffocating.
Hunger Games
Katniss Everdeen/Peeta Mallark ✅
Oh my god, where to begin? I love these two, they were my Bella and Edward if that comparison makes sense. Except for a better relationship in every single way, no biggie. Personally, that quote is a bit overused to explain their relationship, but it still made me shrivel into a prune.
Finnick Odair/Annie Cresta
The only person I would want Finnick with other than myself. They gave cute, wholesome, true love and just passed the vibe check with flying colours.
Merlin
Merlin/Arthur Pendragon ✅
Again, another ship I love even though I haven’t watched the source material. I do remember watching the ‘two hours of merthur scenes’ YouTube video a few years before I got into the fandom, so It’s been in my peripheral view for a while.
Arcane
Jayce Talis/Viktor ✅
Like- okay. They just hit different; I binge watched s2 with my sister, and the entire time, I was wondering who the mage guy was. Meanwhile, she was trying to convince me that Jayce is actually the villain because of obvious reasons, and she started being whiney when I was like, "I still don't see why." and then, when he was chatting with AU Viktor in ep 7, I had the lightbulb moment and was like "IS THAT VIKTOR?" and she TROLLED ME, she just went "nah" and I believed her like the good sister I am. Anyway, jayvik has my whole heart. THEIR SOULS ARE INTERTWINED IN THE ASTRAL PLANE.
My Hero Academia
Ekko/Jinx
I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT I FORGOT TO PUT TIMEBOMB HERE FOR THIS LONG. Truly, a what could've been ship. The cut scenes in s2 ep9 really hurt like whyyyyy.
Izuku Midoriya/Bakugo Katsuki ✅
Oof, I don’t like MHA anymore because it was just too toxic, and this ship used to be the OTP after Free!, but like, it’s fallen in the ranks super hard.
Shōta Aizawa/Hizashi Yamada ✅
They were the subtle one that I shipped because why wouldn’t you, you know? They were beyond cute in their scenes together, and I loved the perpetual teasing.
BTS
Jeon Jeongguk/Kim Taehyung ✅
My OTP for two years after MHA, I used to be pretty crazy about them. I realized that these were people and it started to feel gross so I fell off the ship pretty quickly after that.
Kim Seokjin/Kim Namjoon ✅
Again, my youthful mind just reduced them to mom and dad and I didn’t think about it until I got more into fandom politics.
Min Yoongi/Jung Hoseok/Park Jimin ✅
I would ship them in any configuration, I liked all of them, although I did have a preference for Yoonmin.
Dan and Phil
Daniel Howell/Philip Lester ✅
DON’T KILL ME, I WAS A TWEEN. I wasn’t insane about it, but I read some fics and watched ‘Moments That Hit Different’ videos once they both came out. I know they haven’t confirmed anything, and I am respectful of that. I still watch them and I’m glad they’re in a better place now.
DC
Batman/Joker ✅
Judging by the posts I have already made, you can tell I’m very passionate about this one. But it’s honestly more of a guilty pleasure ship than anything else. I don’t like that I like them.
Harley Quinn/Poison Ivy ✅
They’re another story. Cuties indeed. I love them. I think their relationship is very interesting although it can also cross into toxic territory.
Telltale: Batman
Bruce Wayne/John Doe ✅
I’m singling these two out because they’re just unique from the rest of the ship in a way I can’t explain. Like… If normal Batjokes yearning levels were dialled up 10x more.
Marvel
Venom/Eddie Brock ✅
It’s just a hot ship, sorry. Not to mention their really weird relationship with each other and the fact that they HAVE CHILDREN. Plus I love the cute Venom blob fanart.
Peter Parker/Wade Wilson
I just think they’re an amazing dynamic, with the whole team-up comic and subsequent moments together.
Detroit: Become Human
Simon/Markus ✅
Even if the cut romance path with Simon is just a rumour, I feel like we were robbed of some great LGBTQ representation. “Our hearts are compatible” will make my heart clench to this day.
Hank Anderson/Connor ✅
Another one I’m not too proud of, in retrospect, although I still do see some romantic tones to the relationship. But the fics were great, not gonna lie.
Kara/Luther ✅
I love them in a found family way, but I can see them being together in a hypothetical future together in Canada scenario.
Tales of Zestiria
Sorey/Mikleo ✅
Boi, another ship I feel very strongly about. Objectively, they are canon and I’m going to continue to believe they are. I love their shared dream and I think the foundation of their relationship is very precious.
Rose/Alisha ✅
Super cute. They honestly feel stronger in The X, but the DLC did also make me ship them.
She-Ra
Catra/Adora ✅
I understand the arguments against this ship, that it’s kind of toxic and all that, but I just don’t care. They literally feel like soulmates and I just vibe with this dynamic. A perfect kiss, and a great ending.
Sailor Moon
Haruka Tenou/Michiru Kaiou
I only watched the first few episodes of the original Sailor Moon and the ending with my sister for my birthday, so this is another ship that I haven’t seen. But I still love them from what I’ve been exposed to and I hate that they were reduced to friends with the English dub.
Cardcaptor Sakura
Touya Kinomoto/Yukito Tsukishiro
Again, a peripheral ship where I didn’t watch or see Cardcaptor Sakura, but I mean, they’re adorable and canon. Not much else to say about it.
Attack On Titan
Ymir/Krista Lenz ✅
Let me break this down before everyone hates me. I love Ymir and Krista. Ymir was really the push she needed to become her own person and I love that arc. But I’m also a firm believer in bisexuality existing, headcanons are fine, and that it’s okay to move on from past loves.
Eren Yeager/Historia Reiss ✅
I was kind of cringe during this era, and I did think they were endgame, which is why the ending tainted my opinion of the show overall. I fell off the show pretty shortly after the manga finished. But sometimes I will revisit these two to torture myself for some reason. I’m sure Destiel and Merthur shippers can concur.
Erwin Smith/Levi Ackerman ✅
You know, I loved the fake Ackerman lore that Eren came up with because it was an interesting literary device and at least confirmed this ship slightly. They felt very gay in a weird way.
Armin Arlert/Annie Leonhart ✅
It’s funny, I shipped them before Annie was revived and fell off the ship once they became canon. It felt really strange, but the way the relationship played out felt just contrived and fake afterward.
Haikyu!
Hinata Shoyo/Kageyama Tobio ✅
Ya’ll, symbolism at its finest. I’m not sure what happened to their relationship after watching season 3, which is when I dropped the show because I lost interest in sports anime in general.
Daichi Sawamura/Koshi Sugawara ✅
Oof, another mom and dad ship that I appreciated a lot. It was another constant +5 if it was a side pairing in a fic.
Seraph Of The End
Mikaela Hyakuya/Yuichiro Hyakuya ✅
(For anyone that’s alarmed and doesn’t know, they’re not actually related.) They’re very frustrating for me because they are so aesthetic, and they are honestly quite close to canon. But I just think there are certain aspects to the relationships that I don’t like, like Mika’s obsessive behaviours toward Yuu. Just reminds me of Eremika.
The Betrayal Knows My Name
Sakurai Giou/Luka Crosszeria
Okay, the one thing that I actually love about this ship is the reincarnation aspect to it because it really drives home how in love they are with each other. Yuki will always love Luka even if he doesn’t remember him, and Luka will love Yuki no matter what form he takes. Very deep.
God Of War: Ragnarok
Atreus/Angrboda ✅
I don’t understand why a lot of people didn’t like this relationship. They were very cute and gave me some Rapunzel/Flynn Rider vibes, especially in the very beginning. And I can see them in a very cute, mutually supportive romance.
Last Of Us Part 1
Ellie Williams/Riley Abel
I refuse to have my adolescence destroyed by part 2 after I saw the smallest clip of Joel dying, so I’m sticking to Left Behind. I was sobbing by the end of that DLC. Also, the show handled THAT scene perfectly. Loved it.
Last Of Us Part 2
(so. I decided to bite the bullet as soon as I wrote that. and I watched a playthrough.)
Ellie Williams/Dina
Okay. Listen. I would love it if they got back together in that theory with the bracelet. But I also see a poetic parallel to Tommy and Maria. Tommy kept disrespecting Maria and putting himself in danger, and it's clear that that's the main reason for them taking a break. There might be a chance to get back together, but it would take a lotta time.
My Little Pony
Fluttershy/Discord ✅
I am shooketh at the implications of the last episode. They were my favourite ship in MLP, and I am sad to share the cringe that I watched Bride and Daughter of Discord when that was around. But the whole paper bag thing during the epilogue made me implode, I’m so happy they ended up semi-canon.
Rainbow Dash/Apple Jack
They did have many moments that left me in a chokehold when I was in my older childhood years, but I fell off MLP for a solid 5 years before hearing the rumours on the grapevine that they became canon. And they are super close, you can tell.
Undertale
Undyne/Alphys ✅
These iconic chaotic lesbians made me squeal at Undyne’s cheek kiss in the end credits. I love practically every single one of their scenes together.
RG 1/RG 2 ✅
They literally made me blush during their boss fight. Raw dude bro love that turned into something more. Something deeper.
Lightning Point
Zoey/Kiki
I’m pretty sure no one in existence knows what this show is, but lemme tell you, Zoey and Kiki just gave me the vibe of an alien couple on a little adventure that gets trapped on Earth. I don’t remember the ending, but I do remember how cute they were.
Life Is Strange
Chloe Price/Maxine Caulfield
Despite the bad rep this ship has gotten over the years, I would still sacrifice Arcadia Bay at any opportunity. Their kiss was truly a magical moment.
Stanley Parable
Narrator/Stanley
The Not Stanley ending still breaks my heart when I watch it, and Ultra Deluxe just expanded on their relationship so well. They give “I hate to love you and love to hate you” vibes.
Ace Attorney
Phoenix Wright/Miles Edgeworth ✅
Oh come on, anyone who doesn’t ship them confuses me. They have the backstory, they have the revealed, close relationship, and everybody acknowledges the subtext. This ship feels so similar to the Destiel situation rabbit hole, honestly. And it’s also incredibly frustrating.
Little Nightmares 2
Six/Mono
Kind of crazy, considering the end of the game, but I thought that their dynamic was very poetic and tragic. Personally, I don’t think that Six was malicious when she let go of Mono, I think she just recognized Mono was The Thin Man and wanted to prevent him from becoming himself in the future.
Mario
Bowser/Luigi ✅
I love how this ship exploded so quickly and I just love the duality of the ship. It’s either very good smut or the cutest diabetes-inducing sugary fluff.
Scream
Billy Loomis/Stu Macher
Textbook queercoding. I’m sorry, that back hug still makes me shiver. They truly felt threatening and scary which is an especially difficult emotion to get from me.
60 Parsecs
Baby Bronco/Emmet Ellis
I have Markiplier’s video of his playthrough of this game to thank for me shipping them. I couldn’t stop laughing when he was like ”You were elevated, de-elevated, ascended, descended, repeatedly.” He made me ship them so quickly it was actually insane.
Sims 4
Malcolm Landgraab/Cassandra Goth
It’s a weird ship that I found from someone else, but I do love the idea of a Romeo/Juliet situation with these two. Except that they’re both rich. And Malcom is an asshole. Who cares though, that can be fixed in post with a little thing called MC Command Center.
Kim Possible
Kim Possible/Ron Stoppable ✅
This show opened my scope for multishipping. To this day, this is the only time where I ship two things at once with the same level of love. Anyway, Ron was just such a dumbass and I love them.
Kim Possible/Shego ✅
COME ON NOW. They were the first jerk of a pull start to the discovery of my sexuality. Also very cute, I love their storyline together. I find it easier to believe Shego was in love with Kim, but it’s still a very solid ship.
Ever After High
Apple White/Darling Charming ✅
I know people make a huge drama over it, but I also can’t get over the fact that Darling’s kiss breaks the curse. But even then, their small moments do make me think that the story might’ve been gearing up in that direction. I’m not sure, though.
Raven Queen/Dexter Charming
These two are miscommunication gold. And I hate it. But I love it. They are less compelling than the other ships that I enjoy from this show, but I still like them together a lot.
Rosabella Beauty/Daring Charming
I don’t know, I’m just a sucker for a good Beauty and the Beast story, plus this is the only relationship that gave Daring even a modicum of character development, in my eyes at least.
South Park
Craig Tucker/Tweek Tweak ✅
This ship is wild. Like, I love it so much, but I honestly think it came out of nowhere. Their unique energy just gives me life, the ball of stress next to a cool bean.
Thumbelina
Thumbelina/Cornelius
Ok. SO CORNELIUS' VOICE- "AND I'LL NEVER LET YOU FALL-"
Me and my mom had a moment where we were both sobbing when Thumbelina got her wings. Like everytime we watched this movie. Like 15 times. One of them last week. Yeah, this one hits different.
Sesame Street
Bert/Ernie
CLASSIC HUSBANDS. How could you not ship these literal LGBTQ icons? They say they aren’t in a sexual relationship, but does that matter? No. I love them as Bert and Ernie, two puppets in love.
Henry Stickmin Collection
Henry Stickmin/Charles Calvin ✅
I refuse to talk about the Valiant Hero ending. I’ve never seen such a strong marriage between bro and mance, and their scenes together are always fun.
Reginald Copperbottom/Right Hand Man ✅
I’m just saying that the amount at which Right Hand Man protects Reginald is sus beyond normal proportions. Also the level of trust? “Reg?” It feels absurdly gay.
West of Loathing
Player/Gary
This is one of the weirdest things I’ve ever shipped, considering one of them is just the player character. But Gary is so cute! I love him so much! Any playthroughs where they go with Gary make me so happy.
Dream Daddy
Player/Craig
Another player character, but this one tugs my heartstrings differently. I know a lot of people think Craig is the most bland. Honestly, I just think everyone else is super messy. Like I’m not about to get with the youth minister, my religious trauma did not crush me for this.
VeggieTales
Bob the Tomato/Larry the Cucumber
I actually heard this isn’t too crazy of a ship, but I swear, if you grew up as a Christian queer and watched VeggieTales, you felt the vibes. Like Bert and Ernie, tbh. But also, a scroll of the fics indicates gratuitous smut that I am not down for.
Tom and Jerry
Tom/Jerry
I love the fanart of human Tom and Jerry, but if you think about their relationship, I would say they’re almost as fucked up as Batjokes. They care about each other, but they also inadvertently or purposefully almost kill each other. Love them tho.
Magic School Bus
Carlos Ramon/Phoebe Terese
A wtf ship. But hear me out. I was a literal child and saw a very adorable relationship dynamic that made my heart squeeze. That’s it.
Clifford
Emily Elizabeth/Jetta Handover
Okay. I know what you’re thinking. “What the fuck’s wrong with you?” I know. Another wtf ship. But they were cute, no denying that. I love how Jetta’s character developed and the friendship these two managed to cultivate together. And again, I WAS A CHILD.
Greek Mythology
Hades/Persephone
I love them. They scream love in such a unique way, and they trigger my arranged marriage turned love story guilty pleasure. Also, we love the fact that Persephone has equal authority to Hades.
Achilles/Patroclus
Have you ever seen anything as gay as these two? They are true mythological tragedy icons at their finest and are just peak masculine love.
Babylonian Mythology
Gilgamesh/Enkidu
More gay tragedy. This one actually makes me emotional, though. Who knew we could find that much of the first story known, have it be major character death and enemies to lovers, on top of being gay af?
Bible
David/Jonathan
Is it heresy? Yes. Is it assuming things? Yes. Is it benefiting from a dodgy translation? Yes. Do have any fucks to give? No. Besides, I have no respect for the Bible. They are gay.

The way there's such a clear set up for a story with Rafe and Max; I would be so excited if we were to ever get even a short story on these two when they were older.
Like, here we have Rafe, a born Shadowhunter with a fascination with magic. And then we have Max, a born Warlock with a fascination with being a Shadowhunter.
With Max, you know he would be in pursuit of becoming a Shadowhunter, and Alec and Magnus would worry because of the discrimination of him being a Warlock, but all the same Alec would train him himself. And yes, Tessa, a warlock, was able to become a Shadowhunter, but she had her challenges for being accepted, and she had advantages that Max doesn't. For one, she was half a Shadowhunter, so runes worked on her, with Max, they might not. Another thing, was that Tessa didn't look out of place, she didn't have any features that suggested she was a Warlock. But with Max, he's blue, and since he can't 'pass' for not looking like a Warlock, that would add an extra stigma. So here we have Max, who can't accept runes, and looks very much like a Warlock; he won't be accepted easily. Of course, what with Alec being Consul, he'll try his best to have Max be accepted in the Shadowhunter community as fairly as possible, but he can't control old mindsets.
And Rafe, he's an interesting one. Unlike with Max, who could just train and such, Rafe physically cannot do magic. He can study and understand magic all he'd like, thanks to Magnus and his connections to other warlocks, but he himself can't do it, that world is completely cut off from him. This could lead to Rafe doing something very shady in order to be able to do magic, which of course would lead to some very dire consequences.
So here we have these two brothers, both wanting to do opposing that the other brother was made for. This could definitely lead to some jealousy, as they watch the other one be such a natural at the one thing they want to do and yet don't care for. Like, Rafe would watch Max just so causally do spells and not even care about it, and Max would watch Rafe naturally get into the Shadowhunter crowd and get runes and just throw away the opportunity he's always wanted. They would love each other, of course, but natural resentment would build up. And with Magnus and Alec, their big in their fields, and this could lead to some unintentional pressures of its own. Max could feel like he needs to be really good at magic because Magnus is, and maybe feel like he's somehow betraying Warlock's by not going down that path. And Rafe could have this pressure that by not being a Shadowhunter he's not fulfilling his duty, that he's not doing his part in keeping the world safe. Of course, Magnus and Alec would never put that on their kids, but they can't stop outside influences and Max and Rafe's own thoughts.
With this whole set up, all sorts of shenanigans are sure to ensue, and I'm kinds sad we'll probably never get a whole trilogy out of it.

One day at the park, Max had seized a pram with a mundane baby in it. Luckily he’d been glamoured at the time, and the mundane mother thought it was a rogue gust of wind rather than Alec’s little rogue.
“That hellborn brat,” Magnus muttered. “I read him eight stories.”

no like the lack of originality in naming kids in tsc is sooo funny to me like there are two guys called jonathan christopher. at least three with both the names jonathan and christopher. two christophers (as a first name) we have knowledge of. countless others jonathan/john (as a first name). maryse's mother is called marisa. maryse's brother is maxwell and so is maryse's son and so is maryse's grandson. there are two alexander lightwoods. james herondale vs james carstairs. like most of them have reasons to be called that (honouring a past family member/someone you lost, valentine, etc) but i find it sooo funny. so funny.

What do you think Sizzy would name there kids???
I feel like if where thinking about who they could name them after, Simon has: George, Levi (His dad). And Izzy has: Max, And Robert (tho I’m 99% she would not use this)!!
I know a lot of people headcanon Luke and Leia as there baby names but I lowkey hate that 😭😭
ALSO, Simon and Izzy kids are definitely the opposite of Izzy’s siblings, I can imagine them with three girls and than just one boy!!
If they are girls I can see: Georgia/georgina, and than Maxine (for max :,)))
Other names they could use are old lightwood names as well: Gabriel, Gideon, Christopher, Cecily, Anna, Sophie/Sophia, Thomas, Eugenia, Barbara, Tatiana, ect ect ect
ANWYAYSYSYS i wanna know your name ideas <344
i honestly haven't thought about it that much! just because i don't want to get too attached to some names when we could very well be served totally different ones in the twp epilogue or something lol making headcanons that could be disproven can be a disappointing game unforch..
i do, however, completely agree that they'd be more girl parents than boy parents. don't ask me why. it's a vibe. plus they already have their nephews. but also idk any time i imagine their future family, it's the daughters who appear more prominently in my mind.
anywayy i do in fact have an opinion about the name max, which is that i don't think they'll use it as a first name, even feminized. it would just be too much with the blueberry already kickin around yk? i can see them using it as a middle name tho, which i think would be sweet.
also levi maxwell? obsessed. obsessed obsessed. accidentally and quietly adding that to my hcs despite what i just said lol (see this is why i don't think about it ;)) ah!! i would just love so much for simon's dad to be represented. imagine little levi asks about his name and simon gets to recall some of his fondest memories with his own father?? (except for the one but shh we don't talk about that) <33
i do think it would be a great idea to feminize george, mainly just because his death would have been the most recent and i think being able to switch it up a bit would be a good way to honor him without it feeling as heavy as it could yk? plus georgie is such a cute name.
i'd love for them to give one of their daughters the middle name rebecca too <3 i just think it would be so special for simon to be able to carry on these names from his mundane family (and culture) into shadowhunter life. plus becky deserves the recognition imo. i don't think it would be a first name tho. i could also see them carrying sophia along as a middle name.
overall i think sizzy would probably lean more away from giving traditional family first names to their kids than other shadowhunter parents? while i don't think this means they'd be naming their kids luke and leia.. i can see them wanting to be more creative, and give their kids the chance to carve their own paths if they want to.
there's always more jewish names, for one. like abigail? abigail would be cute. and then yeah i could see them using a fictional name tbh... but maybe one they come across more in passing than from a piece of media that's already so beloved? also.. would it be cheesy for them to name a kid brooklyn? lol
anyway they have a lot of possibilities hehe
levi maxwell. abigail sophia. brooklyn rebecca. georgia simone ??? too much? idk hehe this is too fun <33
#the way i could go on for hours 😭#tysm for this ask fr <33 made my day a bit brighter#asks#anon <3#sizzy#sizzy fam#simon lewis#isabelle lightwood#tsc#the shadowhunter chronicles#vetted
