September 1st 1989. Dear Diary…
I believe I’m a good person, I think there’s good in everyone, but here we are first day of senior year. I look around at all these kids I’ve known all my life and I ask myself: What happened?
sideblog to @thcdepths
PSA: Emma Carstairs has been archived and moved to @thcdepths
“It was an ocean she lived across from, ran beside everyday, but Julian knew how much it terrified her. She could force herself into it, sick and shaking, but he hated watching her do it, hated watching his strong Emma torn to shreds by the terror of something so primal and nameless”
ind. selective book based Emma Carstairs penned by Jade

I've officially moved my Emma Muse over to @thcdepths and will continue any threads over there if you guys wish!
Clary had been alive long enough to know when people weren’t telling the whole truth. She knew Emma well enough to know the hardships she had endowed. The redhead didn’t dare push the sentiment any further. If she was happy that was. Ichor- so that was the odd smell that has permeated the institute when the blackthorns finally arrived. “You do seem to have a thing for blackthorns. I mean ones your parabatia and your boyfriend.” She teased. Mark blackthorn was handsome. He was kind too, but she’d also seen him stare down the gnome in the front of the institute. It seemed the wild hunt had changed him. Thank the Angel he was allowed back. “I’m glad . You deserve happiness. Oh- Emma. Izzy, Simon, and Alec come to hunt but it’s mostly me and Jace alone in the institute or a room together. It’s nice to feel young again and sit with a friend without planning a wedding- unless mark and you have something to tell me? You mean a great deal to me wether you like it or not.”
Emma sat next to Clary on the bed, playing with the end of the blonde braid that rested on her shoulder. She wanted to tell Clary, and she did trust her, but it just wasn’t safe, not for her, not for Mark, not for Julian - not for anyone. “Yeah, I guess it is a little strange isn’t it?” It made Emma think about how it might look to other people, dating your parabatai’s brother. She sat staring ahead of her as she considered the idea, but when Clary mentioned the word friend so effortlessly it made her smile, a warm feeling slowly taking over her. After so many weeks of feeling cold and alone, it just felt comforting to know Clary was there for her. “You know I’ll always be here to do anything but plan a wedding. And no. Me and Mark are not getting married, I promise.“ She paused, biting her lip before smiling gratefully at the red haired Shadowhunter. "Thank you Clary.”
Does anyone else out there think that Julian and Emma will succumb to the curse, and that they will be the villains of TWP—that the Dark Artifices is their origin story. I don’t like the idea, but at the same time I’m kind of fascinated.
PLEASE NOTE: IF I REBLOG A MEME, I WANT YOU TO SEND ME THINGS. IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT THEY ARE, OR IF IT’S AWKWARD –– THOSE SITUATIONS CAN EVEN HELP IMPROVE CHARACTERIZATION. SO PLEASE, PLEASE DON’T EVER BE AFRAID TO SEND A MEME.
Jules was the best as pancakes though Dru applauded Emma for trying. Tavy had all but toppled his plate over as soon as it had been placed but for him his eldest brother hung the moon in the corner of the sky. The teen was crossing her arms though an apologetic smile came to her face. The movie theatre wasn’t that far. The brunette had expected mark’s help but in his eyes she was still little. Angel, he’d been in the wild hunt even! A giggle left her lips at the groan. Leave it to Emma to ruin other people’s brooding. “ but there will always be something. I love Julian and Mark, I do but it’s not fair that the twins and everyone else get to take on the world while tavy and I our prisoners in the institute. It’s just a movie- thank you though. I guess I’m a moody teen already.”
Emma came to sit opposite the young Blackthorn at the table. Taking a sip of orange juice from the glass in front of her. “I get it. There will always be another demon to fight, or another battle to win, but I’ve been where you are Dru. You’re convinced you could take on the world, but sometimes when the threat is looking you dead in the face, it’s easier said than done.” She shrugged a little, smiling apologetically at her. She hate being a downer but Dru was old enough to hear it now. While it did seem slightly strict, Emma admired Julian’s love for his siblings, and being his parabatai it seemed wrong to go against him. “Why don’t we make a deal? You keep me company today and next week I’ll take you to see that movie - just me and you?”
@plusdemuse “So miss Emma carstairs,” clary asked waiting for the young girl to turn as she laid across her bed. Emma may have been the next Jace herondale in the eyes of many but there was something’s only time could teach. She loved the young blonde like a daughter. In a way, she’d acted like one in the late nights of the dark war. “So what’s this I here of you dating Mark?” The redhead mused lightly. “The last time I talked with you . Cameron Ashdown seemed to be the romantic conquest. Not that I’m judging- more of less curious. You know, you could call or write more often. Jace and I may run the New York institute, but we get lonely too.”
Emma hung up the gear jacket, glaring at the slightly darker patches from the demon ichor that had splattered all over her just hours before. She pulled her damp, braided hair to one side as she winced at the mention of Mark. “Oh yeah, Mark and I are great. He um…” she paused, thinking of a lie to tell Clary that could have made her pretence believable “he makes me happy.” Not technically a lie, well done Emma. She avoided eye contact with the older shadowhunter as she turned and moved away from the wardrobe, “I guess I didn’t want to bother you, you always seem to have something really important to do,” she shrugged “ Besides, how can you and Jace be lonely?”
Could you please reblog this if it is okay to ask you straight up if you want to ship?
@plusdemuse “Emma,” Dru groaned taking a bite of her pancakes. The brunette was slightly irritated by how much Julian and Mark were being protective. The blonde had grown like a mother to her. She could teach many things and even understood Jules need to shield the people that he loved.Going out to the movies by herself didn’t seem like such a dangerous thing. “Why do they think I’m like a child? I mean appreciate the pancakes, but I have trained my whole life enough to be able to kill the villain in the slasher movies.”
Emma frowned at the pancakes that sat on the pan in front of her - they were already falling apart. How could she look after the Blackthorns when she couldn't even cook pancakes right? "Dru," Emma groaned back in response, taking the pan and tipping its contents into the trash. "They just care about you. You know there's a lot going on at the moment, can you really blame them for being over protective?" It was hard to sympathise with Julian on this one, especially when she saw so much of herself in the little Blackthorn, "but if it helps, I know how you feel."
“If it isn’t Emma Carstairs,” Jace said with a smile. “What brings you around this part of the country?” Last he had heard, she was in London on some mission. He and Clary had been off on a mission of their own, but they had stopped by the New York Institute to make sure everything was okay there.
@plusdemuse ; liked.
When she heard Jace’s voice Emma’s head whipped round to see him, her hand dropping to her side as she clutched on to Cortana. “Duty calls as always.” She turned to face the Shadowhunter, grinning as she walked towards him across the training room floor. “It’s been a while Herondale.”
Anyone who has read The Dark Artifices and is familiar with Emma Carstairs willing to start a thread? I can work with different verses etc whether it be TMI, TID, TDA or a show verse
Just a heads up, I will definitely be keeping my Emma muse, however I haven't finished Lord of Shadows yet. This means plots will either be based during Lady Midnight, within another verse or they will not follow canon until further notice.
So… it’s been a while. College is over for the year. I have a week of being very busy, but then I’m free until September so I’m going to try and start back up again! Things have changed, so my characters and writing style may differ from last time I was around, but let’s just see what happens huh? Either way it feels pretty good to be here.
