❛ you mean, since i KISSED magnus bane at our wedding ? ❜ lips slowly lifting upwards in response to hers. PLAYFULLY almost are his words, which is something of a rarity in itself unless the lightwood is interacting with those he’s comfortable with ( lydia certainly being among those select few now, ) yet they are GENTLY spoken. for a sliver of regret still remains as he enters the room, feet stopping JUST before the edge of the bed, gaze resting upon the other. he is BEYOND grateful for lydia’s understanding, her willingness to throw aside her own happiness for the sake of his, wishing him only the best even if it meant GIVING UP her own dreams once again, a fact he does NOT take lightly. he owes her so much.

& he had meant to check in on her sooner, the LAST TIME they had talked being shortly after she’d been moved to the infirmary. but with having to EXPLAIN to his parents all of what transpired, the MORTAL CUP now in valentine’s possession, attempting to get jace back, ( there’s a massive hole INSIDE him from the absence of his parabatai, his brother, & he still HASN’T been able to feel him much since the weakening of their bond, ) things had been too CHAOTIC for him to get away for even a brief moment. & the only REASON he’d been able to sneak in a visit now is due to isabelle offering to take HIS place in another one of the multitude of meetings they’ve had SINCE this entire thing unfolded days ago. ❛ to be honest… i, uh, i REALLY don’t know yet… & as for everything else going on. ❜

❛ well, things aren’t looking too good. but how are YOU ? ❜

the playful response brings soft laughter to the surface, melodious as church bells ; ringing clear and pure in to the otherwise still silence. ❛ yes, that’s EXACTLY what i mean. ❜ she responds, shaking her head ever slightly before looking back up to alec. her gaze, so often frigid, is warm as it rests u p o n him - trailing along his features before it drops once again. she can practically feel his guilt, radiating off of him in waves, over everything that had TRANSPIRED. she wishes she could continue telling him it was okay, but something tells her he w o u l d n ‘ t heed her words and promises even if she tried.

brows raise and she’s quick to react, leaning TOWARD alec with a sudden urgency. was he alright? isabelle? did something happen to jace, to clary - - ? she takes in a quick inhale before she forces herself to calm, tapping her fingers upon the bed. ❛ i’m alright. nothing i can’t get over. ❜ she responds, waving off his worry with a reassuring smile before she s o b e r s twice as quick. ❛ what happened? are you alright? ❜ her inquiry is rapid, desperate: she’s somewhat embarrassed, but she’s been TRAPPED in this room, unable to do much, so the thought of things going wrong is ever more terrifying to her. ❛ did something happen to isabelle? or- or any of your family, truly? ❜

she wasn’t the enemy in this world. she COULDN’T just blame her for everything that had happened. ( when it wasn’t her fault. IT WAS HER JOB. ) onyx hues watched the other for a few more seconds, shaking her head with dark hair falling over her shoulders. ❝ i HOPE so too. for both of us. ❞ a smile fell across ruby colored lips. ❝ it was BRAVE. you stood up for what y o u believe in rather than what they did. ——- i think that if they DIDN’T let you run an institute ; they are i n s a n e. it’s something that i would HAPPILY stand in front of the clave & say how i feel you are a better choice than whoever else they DECIDE to put in power. because that is nothing but the truth. you D E S E R V E it, lydia. ❞

warmth blossoms golden in her chest, filling her VEINS like holy fire. it ignites the d i v i n i t y that pulses there anew, golden light flooding her vision momentarily before it softens. isabelle’s words meant he world to her, and she holds them TIGHT to her heart. it reminds her that risking it all was worth it, that letting every dream she ever had go was okay because it meant saving her. saving alec, too. ❛ you truly are a family of HONOR, aren’t you? ❜ lydia murmurs, the question full well rhetorical - no answer need be given, as lydia already knew. ❛ thank you, isabelle. and i truly am s o r r y for everything that happened before. ❜

me, banging pots and pans together: LYDIA!!! BRANWELL!!! IS!!! SO!! IMPORTANT!! I MEAN, FUCK. she’s a female in a position of power who was sent on orders to take control, and she does that because it’s her job too. and she knows that the institute should not be taken that way, she even admitted to it but she values her honor, her job over anything because it’s all she has left because her fiance died after a mistake she made, after being “too soft hearted.” and then she has to arrest meliorn and she knows that it isn’t the right way, but john is still in the back of her mind and if she’d just done what she was having to do now the first time he might still be alive and!! then izzy comes along and it kills her when she has to be like ‘yeah, i’m arresting you’ because this girl is her fiance’s sister but she can’t think about it. can’t think about it because all she’s ever learned is THE LAW IS HARD, BUT IT IS THE LAW. she’s been raised knowing that but she knows this isn’t the law anymore, this is desperation for the cup and someone so good and brave and innocent as isabelle is doesn’t deserve it so!! she’s so loyal to the clave and her cause but she realizes that they’re wrong and she risks everything - literally everything - to try and save isabelle and i think that’s so often overlooked. and i mean, if that wasn’t enough to convince you lydia branwell is too goddamn good for this world and so fucking important she!! is the final push!! she lets alec go, she tells him to go, on the day they are supposed to be wed. knowing full well that she again would lose EVERY SINGLE DREAM that he had offered her back - that she had already lost once before - because he had his own too, and lydia understood that. and it’s clear, so fucking clear just how much it hurts her because as soon as alec turns away her face falls but only after alec can’t see because his!! happiness!! is so important!! and he’s so good and deserves it and lydia understands that. and she could have been vindictive, could have dug her fingers in and not let alec go, but she did, she did because she knows that she’d do the same damn thing if john walked through that door. tl;dr: LYDIA BRANWELL IS SUCH AN IMPORTANT CHARACTER IN GENERAL AND SHE DESERVES MUCH MORE THAN SHE’S GOTTEN.

#SLAMS THIS AGGRESSIVELY ON TO DASH AGAIN #BC I SAW SOMEONE SAYING LYDIA DOESNT DESERVE THE PRAISE #WHICH CAN SUCK MY ENTIRE ASS #would be the world’s worst shadowhunter tbh. like oh what’s that? this is a stabby thing? heh. stabby stab. ❜ ━ ooc.

company is not oft expected ; the silence of the institute’s hospital ward having become her only companion for days now. a blow to the HEAD shouldn’t have done so much damage, and yet it did - just enough that they continued to refuse lydia leave back to idris. she’s sat crosslegged on the bed, gaze trained on the stele that rests on the bedsheet in front of her. it’s familiar, in the way that all things s t u d i e d a hundred times over are. she’s so focused that the door creaking open startles her, gaze jumping up before she settles, realizing who it is. ❛ alec, hey. i wasn’t really expecting any company. ❜ she states, lips CURLING in to a small smile. ❛ how are things doing? since, you know. . . ❜

DOE-LIKE EYES WIDEN AS the n y m p h sets eyes on the knife through the glass of the counter, palms pressed to the glass with hardly c o n c e a l e d desire. a POWDERED blue hilt encircled in a delicate bow, giving way to a perfectly polished blade, g e m s inset into unyielding metal, && she is enthralled. ‘ do you THINK i’d be taken seriously if i carried that around ? i just DON’T understand why girls can’t be both cute && deadly. ‘

brows raise, a slight smile daring to curve the edges of crimson lined lips - laughter, jovial, tempted to slip through. the question catches her slightly off guard, but it’s a welcomed sort of off guard, one that leaves a warmth settling with her STOMACH and a fluttering within her h e a r t. the smile fades and a mockery of serious thought comes across her features, as if conflicted on how to answer. ❛ i’m rather sure you would be. boys - and girls - probably wouldn’t know whether they wanted to kiss you or run from you. i’d assume the f o r m e r, however. ❜

the ONE THING she had spent so long trying to get was her brother’s happiness. even if it involved l e a v i n g her own in the dust. dark hues turned to watch the other, a sigh falling past VELVET stained lips. ❝ ——- it isn’t your fault, lydia. just because THIS mess happened : it doesn’t mean that you can’t pick yourself back up. ❞ if you had a s k e d how she felt about her when she first arrived at the institute, she’d have A LOT of words that didn’t fall in her favor. but after her trial & what went on throughout it, ( she COULDN’T hate her. ) ebony hair fell over her shoulders, body moving to join the the other. ❝ i get that. marriage seemed like the best idea. … you’re going to RUN an institute one day. you d e s e r v e it more than anyone i’ve ever met. ❞

cerulean gaze raises, training upon isabelle with a questioning intensity - did the girl truly believe that? oh, how lydia doubted it. as much as she wished to believe, as much as he HELD the dream tight with claws and fangs ensnared like a wolf to prey, she knew the chances were slim. ❛ i can only hope things go alright from this point forward. ❜ she murmurs, running her fingers t h r o u g h her hair. ❛ i can only imagine what the clave has to say about it, and after i basically told the INQUISITOR, of all people, to eat me. . . ❜ a sardonic laugh filters past her lips, fingers curling tight around the stele that she withdrew from her pocket. ❛ i’d be lucky if they don’t laugh in my face just hearing i wish to. do you really think it’s possible that i could? ❜

clary revolves around, slowing down to lay eyes on lydia. a smile dances onto her lips and green hues twinkle like GLISTENING oceans when she sees her walking. she offers the other girl an arm to help her stand—- if the Envoy wished to rest some of her weight on her to relax. “ she’s awake—- resting! but, she’s fine. I was just going to see her. but the real question is… how are you?” she smiles a bit bashfully, but there’s a soft clinch of her jaw as she thinks of what hodge had done to the other girl. it sends a fire burning raw and wild in her stomach, and it longs for revenge and vengance and to strike—- like an avenging angel at the world that has done innocent people so awfully wrong.

the offered arm is taken, a soft warmth blossoming within her chest: GOLDEN and burning like fire. it is welcomed and she savors it, cerulean hues lit by the very flames within. she feels wanted, in some way, and she can’t help how pathetic it makes her feel to think that. she shouldn’t need that validation, after all, but she does ( god, she does ) and it is like AMBROSIA. feeding divinity and soothing her soul, albeit for few minutes. ❛ resting? surely she did enough of that already? ❜ lydia inquires, casting a sideways glance upon clary before she continues speaking. ❛ i’m well e n o u g h. my head still aches, but i’m fine otherwise. it’s NOTHING of importance, really, unlike your mother’s wellbeing. ❜

AS A SIREN’S CALL, the boy cannot h e l p but turn at the utterance of his name, AURAL eyes shifting to look upon his would-be sister’s face. a smile, then, FRAYED at the corners where s a c c h a r i n e lips twist up, a slight BITTERNESS to the sweet. ‘ ALEC is my b r o t h e r . closer, even, you don’t have to worry about us. he is DEARER to me than my own life, i’ll take c a r e of him as though he is my own soul. ‘ he CROSSES to her then, tired eyes sweeping o v e r her in idle appraisement. his head tilts to the side, GOLDEN strands of hair shifting like the l i g h t of a shattered halo. ‘ but don’t make yourself a STRANGER here. there’ll always be space enough for you. ‘

there’s a moment of affront at his response to her words, but she also understands why his response was so short. she nods, pursing her lips and CLOSING her eyes for mere seconds before reopening them. ❛ i know, i do. i just. . . ❜ her words fall short, slim fingers knotting together repeatedly before she tries to speak up again. she’d learned to care for alec in her o w n way, and fear of him being harmed only escalates with the memory of her john. ❛ i just WORRY. ❜ she finishes weakly, a sad smile curling her lips at the rest of his words. ❛ there may be, but i can’t impose. i fear i’ve done more bad than GOOD, here. ❜

WHISPERS highly existed hither and thither, yet no matter the sum that was asked in trade for information, the source and words spoken could not be trusted. perhaps there had been a descend for the night children and two nephilim, but raphael santiago believed that there were one or two sensible ones in the remains. and if that belief was mistaken, he still stood in the fact that they could serve to supply C O N C R E T E answers. the angel-blooded perhaps would not aid them in battle ( or rather they never had anywhere for that matter ), but the least they could do was roll tongue in order to supply for preparation. raphael’s hope of finding someone sensible had not been entirely shot down, and at the sight of the blonde he speeds to stand behind her. he even has a smile to offer as she spins to face him, ❛ you can say i’m here out of CURIOSITY. but really, miss branwell, i wish to know where your people left camille . . and if it is certain that morgenstern has the cup in his power? ❜

❛ you know i can’t tell you that. ❜ her words are soft and kind. she means no insult by her words, but merely knows giving away something the CLAVE would regard as secret would be a danger to not only herself, but raphael and both of their respective connections. lips curl in to a SLIGHT smile of apology, ivory flashed beneath moonlight for mere seconds before rosebud lips recede once more. ❛ i can tell you i’m not quite sure where camille is, however. i haven’t been cleared as fit for duty just yet - injury. ❜ she pauses, realizing her WORDS may bring questions, and is quick to add on: ❛ training injury, that is. by the angel if those bo staffs aren’t heinous little things. you think you’re ducking in time and- well. you get the picture. ❜

❛ are you alright? ❜ lydia’s inquiry comes unbidden, knowing that it is one she should have held her tongue for. yet WORRY for others has always been her achilles heel - especially after john’s death. once his light was burnt out, she did everything in her power to make sure nobody ever lost the way she did, even if it was just checking on someone’s welfare. ❛ pardon my inquiry and brashness - you just look a bit PALE, is all. ❜

❛ last i knew, WEREWOLVES weren’t allowed within the institute without company. ❜ lydia murmurs absently, cerulean gaze focused upon the masc with the intensity of a hawk to her prey. she’s not going to throw p u n c h e s yet - after all, somebody had to have let him in, and his features are familiar. she can’t PLACE exactly why, but doesn’t trouble herself with it, nose scrunching ever slightly. ❛ who might you be, and why are you inside the institute? ❜

word travels quick in the institute, and lydia, holed up as she was in the HOSPITAL ward, still heard that they had managed to wake jocelyn. a smile curls her lips at the news and she dares to stand ( the world spins for a second or two, but then steadies ) before edging out of the room, eager to find clary and potentially meet jocelyn. after all, no matter how DISTANTLY it was, they were related. at a familiar flash of brilliant red, tousled locks around the corner, lydia calls out- hesitantly picking up her pace. ❛ clary! hey, how’s your mother. . .? ❜

alright, so! tiny main verse/canon shadowhunters update. as we have no idea what exactly happened to lydia ( bitterness overload can you tell ) after alec and magnus found her, i’m placing it that she is currently still at the institute recovering from her injuries. however, she feels terrible that she is still there and not returning to idris, and feels as if she’s imposing even further upon the lightwoods. for the most part she’s trying to stay out of their hair by remaining in her given room / going out quite a lot. so yeah, until we get an update that’s where things are!
