It's so cute that the characters look at the person he loves ❤️

Alastair looks at Thomas, Thomas looks at Alastair, James looks at Cordelia, Cordelia looks at James, Matthew looks at Cordelia, Lucie looks at Cordelia, Jesse looks at Lucie, Grace looks at Christopher, Christopher looks at Grace , Ari looks at Anna and Anna looks at Ari

Wait why is Lucie looking at Cordelia instead of looking at Jesse?!?

Englich:

My friend who ships Izzy and Magnus: Izzy and Magnus should have ended up together because as we know that on the back of the Lightwood necklace, there is a love phrase that Magnus has engraved and that now Isabelle wears it it would have been a nice parallel that the person wearing the necklace now is Magnus' true love

Me in my head creating a headcanon where Izzy gives Alec the necklace and he wears it every day or Magnus turns the necklace into a bracelet and Alec wears it all the time:

French:

Mon amie qui ship Izzy et Magnus: Izzy et Magnus aurait dû fini ensemble car comme on sait que sur le dos du collier des Lightwood, il y a une phrase d'amour que Magnus a graver et que maintenant Isabelle le porte ça aurait été un beau parallèle que la personne qui porte le collier à présent est le véritable amour de Magnus

Moi dans ma tête en train de créer un headcanon où Izzy donner le collier a Alec et qu'il le porte tout les jours ou que Magnus transforme le collier en bracelet et que Alec le porte toujours le temps:

How I saw no one talking about it and when I realized this problem, I couldn't stop thinking about it

the relationships in chain of gold and chain of thorns are a weird mix in the family tree and bordering on incest (it's not incest because they don't have the same blood)

I can give you an example :

- Lucie and Jesse who share an uncle and an aunt and three cousins ​​in common

- Christopher and Grace who are cousins ​​(adoptive)

for the last example it's not really James and Cordelia's fault but - James Herondale is married to his stepfather's cousin and his who is also the father of his half-sister

It would have been so interesting with a James who is insecure and an outcast of society + his love triangle would have been awesome with the fact that as Cordelia is an amazing warrior shadowhunter and wielding a legendary sword that everyone admires and James the pariah of society who also has demon blood

I imagine James so much when he's around Cordelia he realizes there's a rift between them which makes him a bit jealous of Cordelia and makes him even less confident and pushes him to be with Grace a strange girl but who understands him and makes him feel comfortable in her presence

It would even have been a great parallel the fact that he turns into a shadow and the fact that he lives in the shadow of all his loved ones

Matthew might even have had a romance instead of being in this love triangle

Something that’s been bothering me for a while is the way cassandra clare did a complete 180 on james as a character.

the james we were promised way back when the midnight heir and nothing but shadows came out is nothing like the james we see in the main series. and it makes me viscerally angry. james in the last hours is well…it pains me to say this because i do love him, but… until chot he’s not that interesting.

most of his struggles that were set up in the short stories magically resolved themselves before the series began, he’s no longer insecure about how different he looks compared to other shadowhunters, suddenly he’s just as quick and witty as will and matthew are, and everyone loves him and wants to marry him! when the james we were promised was a social outcast, who every day was reminded that not only is he not like his father, he is so much worse. 

james in the midnight heir is shown to be jealous of his parent’s perfect love, when he himself is suffering because he’s madly in love with grace and she just broke things off with him. we also see this hint of resentment towards will for being so “perfect”.

which shows up again in nothing but shadows, james constantly compares and is being compared to will. will is so handsome, and james is so odd looking. will is able to make everyone laugh and everyone likes him, james is awkward and often does not know how to express himself.

and we can see in the way james talks about this, that he’s annoyed at his father for making him feel like he is inadequate. and then he gets to the academy and the first thing that happens to him is all the other kids start to make fun of him for the way he looks. they keep telling him how odd he looks, like a goat. and then his powers manifest and once again he is reminded just how different he is from everyone else.

the last hours was originally pitched as a love triangle with a herondale in the middle. so when i first found this out i thought this story was finally going to challenge the godawful “herondales love but once” rule. and this would also fit into this idea that james is somehow “wrong”, he’s not extroverted and witty like his father, he has demon blood and demonic powers, which creates a wedge between him and other shadowhunters.

and on top of that, he loves two people! one of them being an amazing shadowhunter warrior from a respectable family with close connections to the herondales (cordelia). and the other not so proper, maybe kind of evil, weird daughter of a mad woman who hates herondales (grace). so the story wouldn’t only be about him choosing between two women he loves, but also about him being torn between the expectations of his family and society and his “dark side”. 

but then cassie made the gracelet and erased all of james’s problems and we ended up with yet another boring love triangle that no one asked for…

Can someone explain to me why I am debating with a person at 12:30 a.m. on the Lightwood family tree because of Christopher's death which made it illogical because as it is written in the tree that Isidore must have been born in 1908 and that Alexander was 8 years old at that time (and the Lightwoods of our time cannot be descendants of Anna and Ariadne because Alec looks like Will and must therefore be a biological descendant of Cecily)

Well it's late and my brain is asking a question and now I can't sleep without having the answer so I need your opinion for you if Emma and Cordelia would have been at the same time for you Cortana would have chosen which one two to be its carrier?

Hello sorry to bother you but I have a question am I the only one who has already imagined Jonathan Morgenstern as the bearer of the sword Heosphoros or who has already wanted to read a story where he is the bearer of Heosphoros or see a fanart of him with Heosphoros?

I have a question as Kit was adopted by Jem and Jem is a Carstairs, does that mean that « Kit became a Carstairs » and can use Cortana ?

(I'm not talking about Kit as a Cortana carrier but that at one point he is in danger and Cortana appears to give him help because he is a « Carstairs »)

you are the only one reading the detrition 😭😭😭 because the other people who we republish talk about Kit as a carrier while I had made it clear that I was not talking about Kit as a Cortana carrier 😭😭😭

so thank you very much for reading the detrition 😭😭😭 it took me 1h25 to have done it to try to be precise on things 😭😭😭

I don't know if it was explained in TMI but since Jace had the identity of Jonathan Wayland throughout his youth does that mean that he had celebrated his birthday on the wrong day throughout his childhood

if so, imagine the first time he celebrated his birthday on the real day he was born or when he wakes up thinking it's his birthday and then he remembers it's actually not the case and it's the birthday of Jonathan Wayland the child he had unknowingly assumed the identity of for 16 years

Am I the only one who would have liked to see basic characters who are in families other than The Herondales, Fairchild, Lightwood, Carstairs, Blackthorn?

I warn you, I love his families but I wanted to know more about the other Shadowhunters families because for me it could have been interesting to know more about the other families

on a bit of the same thing am I the only one who wanted to see more weapons created by Wayland the Blacksmith often used by the main characters

because the only weapon made by Wayland the Blacksmith that we have often seen used by the characters are Cortana and Phaesphoros and Heosphoros

and then is surprised that I don't like Jocelyn's character,

I'm sorry, she's a horrible mother to Jonathan who might have had the chance to be a good person even with his demon blood. if he hadn't been raised by Valentine

although I understand that she was perhaps blinded by love not to see the things that Valentine was spanking

It turns out that Valentine did not hide the fact that he was studying magic and it did not bother Jocelyn? Considering that magic is unnatural for shadowhunters

He made a quick gesture with his fingers, something she (Jocelyn) had seen Valentine do when he had taught himself magic. - City of Heavenly Fire

He liked to wear white. Funeral clothes. It's almost like a sign of death

The door opened and Sebastian stepped through.He wore a white knit shirt, and she was reminded again of his father. Valentine had liked to wear white.  - City of Heavenly Fire

This is the perfect baby. What kind of monster? Jocelyn, what are you talking about? He was cold… maybe baby J needed to be held more often?

She crossed her arms over her chest. “What are you doing here, Jonathan?”He shook his head, still with the same smile on his face, and drew a dagger from his belt. It was narrow, with a thin blade like an awl. “If you call me that again,” he said, “I will put your eyes out with this.”She swallowed. Oh, my baby. She remembered holding him, cold and still in her arms, not like a normal child at all. He hadn’t cried. Not once.  - City of Heavenly Fire

Yes of course Jonathan would have seen the inequality that comes from his mother but compared to Valentine that he whipped him with demonic metal whips or education that Valentine gave to him and Jace

I think Jocelyn could have been better because I think she wouldn't really care about him and would have only ignored him instead of mistreating him

(It’s horrible to think that Jonathan’s two choices of parents are both horrible and that we’re going to choose that the best for him is the least worst.😭😭😭)

hello I had a question, for you, is it possible for a shadowhunter to have dysphasia and multi-dys?

(Because I'm writing a Parabatai Jonathan Morgenstrern fanfiction)

Ok now I must admit that the poll "For you, is it possible for a Shadowhunter to have dysphasia and multidys ?" is such that when I ask a question for this poll, I would not have people insulting me for having said that there could be dys shadowhunters

now the real question that interests me

Do you think dysphasia shadowhunters use the language rune to be understood when they are young ?

BE CAREFUL I EXPLAIN MYSELF : I have dysphasia and when I was little when I spoke it was for other people as if I was speaking another language and no one understood me whereas for me the words or the sentence were normal but now I am understood even if there are still some difficulties

I hope I explained the question well and why I ask it

(thank you for answering the survey it's for a parabatai fanfiction Jonathan)

Hello I had a question “can we steal Jessamine’s parasol? and if so will Jessamine stay at the London institute” because my friend thinks «yes we can steal her parasol and she will stay at the London institute because Jessamine's ghost is not attached to the shadow but to her doll's house because she had broken her first parasol and her current parasol, she had not yet had a strong enough line to be attached to the parasol»

thank you for answering it's for fanfiction

Hi I had a question for you, if Jonathan/Sebastian wasn't evil because of his demon blood for you? he would have had magical powers and would have been immortal like Tessa (half warlock and half shadowhunters) or he would have been like James and Lucie, a shadowhunters with a capacity

Hello as the Shadowhunters series decided to put another love interest for Luke, I wonder when you think of his love interest that comes straight to your head
