Gonna post a real thing for TGI anniversary tomorrow but just winding down for sleep and thinking a lot. I want to say thank you to those of you who had patience and grace with me when I was recovering. Mostly, I want to thank you for your belief. Figuring out my new normal was a series of timid, newborn baby deer steps. It was a tremendous amount of care, not a lack of it. And now a year later, I have done the biggest tour of my career and I’m now 5 shows into a completely different (and sold out!) SECOND tour celebrating the origin story. I know that the best of you expected nothing from me, only that I prioritize taking care of myself. And I love you dearly for that. But you must know how good and strong and beautiful it feels to return and give you EVERYTHING I’ve got instead.

I am coming undone with love. Thank you.

Letter from Jace to Clary (for Kickstarter)

[written for Theresa]

Dear Clary,

You said you wanted me to write you a letter for your birthday, so here I am, writing that letter. At first I thought that maybe you weren’t serious. After all, we live in the same house. We are not separated by time, dimensions, or the turbulent ocean, which are the usual reasons people write letters.

I thought maybe you were being self-effacing, that you just didn’t want me to go to any trouble, especially when we have wedding planning coming up (hopefully soon—since we’re waiting on a peace process, it could be a while).

So I came up with the idea of taking you on a flying motorcycle to see the Northern Lights, but when I suggested it you said no, you only wanted a letter.

I suggested we portal to the south of France and pick lavender and have a picnic, but you said no, you wanted a letter.

I suggested we use our Shadowhunter skills to break into the Met so you could stand in front of every painting for as long as you want, but you said no, you’d rather have a letter.

I suggested we portal to the Tokyo International Anime Fair, because I remembered you saying you’d always wanted to go, but you said no, you’d rather have a letter.

I suggested I could find you the best, most beautiful sword that you’d ever seen, and had your initials carved into it, or a subtle message like “I <3 Jace” but you said no, you’d rather have a letter.

And then I realized that while we have had an amazing time together all these years, and we’ve always gone around the world and seen incredible things, that things are different now. Now there is a shadow hanging over everything, the shadow of the situation in Alicante. And I realized that what you actually wanted is something you can keep with you that reminds you of hope.

So let me tell you, in this letter, why you should hope.

Because no matter what we are facing, we are still us, Jace and Clary. We still have our friends and the people who love us. We have faced so much together, and we have always come out of the darkness into light. And in the end, I believe that love will always win out against hate, because I have faced some of the greatest evil that has ever been known, and the strength I have found in how much I love you has always carried me through. So keep this letter with you, even the in dark moments. Especially in the dark moments. I hope that it brings you comfort to know that I love you more than life itself. And if it doesn’t, remember: You could have had a flying motorcycle ride to see the Northern Lights, and you turned it down.

yours,

Jace

Kit to Ty

Election day: misery, stress, hair-pulling, at least for Americans (and a lot of other people around the world affected by our politics!) So I thought I'd post a distraction; I hope it helps and doesn't annoy!

A while ago I posted the beginning of a letter from Kit to Ty, created for a Kickstarter backer. Here's the full text:

A letter from Kit to Ty, never sent.

Ty, Ty, Ty.

Your name looks strange written out like that. Like an abbreviation. But Tiberius would be so formal. I never think of you that way. Or, I suppose I should say, I never thought of you that way. Tenses matter in these situations, I guess.

It’s late, past midnight, and I’m sitting on the windowsill in my bedroom at Cirenworth. Jem and Tessa gave me one of the best rooms. Of course they did. It has a view out over the gardens. Sometimes I see the ghost of a dog there, a golden retriever I’m pretty sure, running in and out of the flowerbeds. He seems like a pretty happy ghost. I think about how much you like animals and how much they love you, because of course they do. But it’s too late; this dog passed away a long time ago. You probably couldn’t even see him. It’s too late for a lot of things, now.

I’m still mad at you, and I don’t feel good about that. Maybe if I could forget, I could forgive. But I can’t forget that night you brought Livvy back. I’ll suddenly remember even when I’m thinking about something else. I’ll be in the middle of helping Tessa in the garden and suddenly I’ll turn around and I’m back in Idris.

I remember I told you I loved you. I remember I told you I would help you, but not if you raised Livvy from the dead. Not if you did necromancy. But you wanted that more than you wanted me.

And I understand that. I’m not angry about that. Here’s what I’m angry about: when you brought Livvy back, you changed yourself. You made yourself a different person than the one I loved. I don’t know the person you are now. You took yourself away from me. I can’t forgive that. And you made me someone who has to keep a secret I never wanted to keep. I was raised by someone who had so many awful secrets, and when I started my life as a Shadowhunter I wanted to do it openly, and honestly. But now I’m just someone else with secrets I can never tell. Just like my dad.

It makes me angry, so angry. I want to yell at you. I wish you were here so I could yell at you.

Kit

heyyyy so happy for twp news finally after having religiously followed the shadowverse since i first read mortal instruments as a 13 year old I AM PSYCHED to see how it all ties up together

my question is how much of the mortal instruments gang will i get to see in twp?!! (pls keep the 6 alive and happy plsplspls thank you bye)

Well, you know I never promise anything about aliveness and happiness, but you will see them all. One of the first things that happens in Last King is that Dru and Thais travel to New York to see Simon's band at Pandemonium (and everyone is there — Jace, Clary, Simon, Isabelle, Magnus, Alec...)

Bookmarks designed by me for The Last Hours trilogy by Cassandra Clare that you can buy on my Redbubble shop now

So far I’m going to mainly be selling my bookmark designs in form of Redbubble stickers that will come with a white border around each design, it’s not a perfect solution cause you’ll still have to stick the sticker into a cardboard and cut the white border off to get the final product, but I don’t think it’s a very hard craft, and it will allow me to start selling my designs already without having to print and ship them myself. Redbubble’s printing quality will be very good, the stickers very durable and waterproof (even if the cardboard you’ll stick them to won’t be waterproof obviously, the final product will still have a lot of durability, or you can even stick them to a piece of hard plastic instead of cardboard if you want them to be even more enduring), and you can choose between a glossy or matte finish (glossy being some cents more expensive than matte).

The dimensions I normally use for my bookmarks are length 5 cm and height 17 or 18 cm (depending on the design), which is equivalent to approximately length 2 inches and height 7 inches, so those dimensions are the ones you'll find the most within the following options. It's very important that you make sure to buy the right size (stickers are available on small, medium, large or extra large sizes) of sticker that I'll be indicating you so that you get the promised dimensions.

Please note that shipping costs will NOT be included on the following prices: orders print and ship from 3rd-party fulfillers worldwide, so the shipping costs should be very reasonable, although that will depend on your location. Also, prices might go down following Redbubblediscounts available during specific seasons or when buying a higher amount of products.

Now that it is explained how it works, there will be the following options and designs for The Last Hours trilogy by Cassandra Clare:

Songs: Come Back...Be Here (Taylor's Version) by Taylor Swift + Love U Already by Fleurie

POV: mainly Nora’s except [𝘐 𝘨𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘕𝘦𝘸 𝘠𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺 (…) 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬, 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 + 𝘕𝘦𝘸 𝘠𝘰𝘳𝘬, 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦] that is Nathan’s + [𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘶𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘸𝘢𝘺] that is both POVs + quote on this caption said by Nathan

Dedicated to:

ღ Andy Allo because when I first met her on Chicago Fire as Seager I couldn't imagine one day she would be playing one of my favourite characters ever. I absolutely adore Nora, she's so cute and funny and intelligent and I really love how she sees the world, I admire her a lot, and Andy playing her is like the most adorable thing to ever exist, for real, just as adorable as Andy herself

ღ Robbie Amell because it's insane how I keep finding him on stuff I watch without even meaning to, and this was the first time I saw on purpose something he was on, because when he posted the trailer on Instagram it caught my eye and made me really curious to watch, and I've never regretted the decision of giving this show a chance, cause every new episode, it keeps surprising me in the best way, and, it’s rare when shows outdo themselves and the second season is even better than the first one, but this one definitely did it! Or at least it’s as good as season one, and even if after how cool season one was, my expectations for this show were higher now, it still never let me down and kept surprising me

ღ Taylor Swift because Red was the album I became a Swiftie with and getting to relive that through the re-recording was a super special experience

ღ Fleurie for always inspiring me and be working on the cutest album ever and releasing this precious beautiful song while I was working on this video edit, which instantly made me change my mind on using Lover [can I go where you go? can we always be this close, forever and ever? take me out, and take me home] for the ending of this video because the start of this song was insanely accurate and perfect for this ship

Fonts: Courier New for the lyrics, and Kapra Neue Light Italic Condensed Rounded for the cover, the ones Taylor used for the Come Back...Be Here (Taylor's Version) lyrics video, and the Red cover, respectively

Program: Sony Vegas Pro 14

Filter / coloring: A7 (film) imported from Polarr on VN (at 50%)
