"i am yours to command"
Oh jocelyn and the memory thing. I hadnt really thought it through before but she quite literally did not have to do that like the lost herondales managed all right for generations and they had people actively hunting them down for half the time. I also get icked out by how she treated baby Sebastian, like she could tell he was evil but he was still a baby who hadnt done anything yet.
THIS!!!
she stole clary's memories AND neglected johnathan which left him vulnerable to valentine. mother of the year 👏
i firmly believe if jocelyn took johnathan with her when she fled he would have grown up better. i mean look at that comic with johnathan and valentine. he's a CHILD who just wants to know where his mom is.
ALSO
can we talk about how, like all the circle members except maybe luke, jocelyn didn't actually care that valentine was spewing racist rhetoric against downworlders?
like yeah she acknowledges he was wrong, but let's be completely honest here: it became a problem for jocelyn when he began targeting the clave. targeting shadowhunters.
i will hate this woman until i die. she's a terrible person and parent and clary deserves better
hey so that whole first fight in season six was a goddamn nightmare
i WILL finish tda this time and i WILL enjoy it
"HE'LL BE FINE AS LONG AS HE DODGES" IS INSANE
the way people boil down the incest plot lines in tmi to pure cringy nastiness is one of my biggest pet peeves.
the "you're my sister" scene is actually heartbreaking because it's coming from an abused sixteen year old who's abuser saw him finding strength and self worth in love, said "absolutely not", and proceeded to make him feel a level of self loathing so profound he thought he was demonic.
it's supposed to be uncomfortable to read because it's a tragic form of abuse inflicted on both jace and clary and to boil it down to "oh well it was incest fic and i hope cc doesn't have brothers and blah blah blah" just tells me you lack the ability to think critically about the series or just missed the entire point.
Hey y’all! Myself and my friend noticed there was a big hole in the TSC fandom - namely, that there isn’t a Discord server for us all to come together and appreciate/freak out over our favourite Shadowhunters.
So we decided to fix it! Here is your official notice of the creation of The Downworld, a place for us to talk theories, go crazy over our beloved ships, worship those characters that maybe don’t get enough love fandom-wide, and of course, appreciate the absolute genius that is Cassandra Clare.
All we ask is that you be kind and respectful to each other, and agree to our server rules that’ll you see when you join. The server is also 18+ only, so unfortunately we won’t be able to allow minors to join.
If you’d be interested in joining, please feel free to reach out to me or @timesconvert and we’ll get the ball rolling - don’t be scared; unlike Jordan, we don’t bite!
very little has ever been so simultaneously arousing, satisfying, and fucking heartbreaking as the scene of james ripping into grace. i waited and was RICHLY rewarded

has anyone else ever noticed that whenever there's a character with anxiety or something similar they are ALWAYS infantilized by the fandom?
