Everyday I wish we had more info on the brief moment both Clace and Sizzy lived in the institute at the same time. Like Simon and Izzy sharing a room? Jace and Clary having “separate rooms” but her sleeping in his every night? Them hearing Sizzy get freaky? Clace lowkey judging Sizzy when Izzy was like “I’m putting up with my bf in my childhood bedroom!” and Clary was like “Oh, we know.” 😭😭😭, Jace trying to use google, Simon and Jace collaborating and writing “come back, meow” for chairman meow, jimon…

“Can I tell you a boring science fact?” she whispered. “I bet you didn’t learn it in Shadowhunter history class.”

“If you’re trying to distract me from talking about my feelings, you’re not being very subtle about it.” He touched her face. “You know I make speeches. It’s okay. You don’t have to make them back. Just tell me you love me.”

“I’m not trying to distract you.” She held up her hand and wiggled the fingers. “There are a hundred trillion cells in the human body,” she said. “And every single one of the cells of my body loves you. We shed cells, and grow new ones, and my new cells love you more than the old ones, which is why I love you more every day than I did the day before. It’s science. And when I die and they burn my body and I become ashes that mix with the air, and part of the ground and the trees and the stars, everyone who breathes that air or sees the flowers that grow out of the ground or looks up at the stars will remember you and love you, because I love you that much.” She smiled. “How was that for a speech?”

Happy Birthday, Jace Herondale !!!

To the golden boy! 💛 To the book character that made me rise my love standards maybe a little too much and who taught me that no matter how broken me might feel, we can always heal, we can learn to love again and with our whole heart. That the love from our family and friends is one of the most beautiful and powerful things we can have 💕 And that family is not blood, it's the people who have our backs. Who taught me to be brave and strong for the people we love, but that it's okay to be vulnerable too. That you can be a warrior and an artist and a nerd, everything at the same time. And the most important thing that he taught me: that we can overcome our traumas, we can heal from the pain caused to us and grow to be a good person ♥️🗡️🎹🦁

Jace’s eyes danced, and Clary felt that familiar surge inside her chest, that pull she had felt since the first time she’d ever seen him. She couldn’t pinpoint the exact moment she’d fallen in love with Jace, but there had always been something about him that reminded her of a lion, a wild animal unfettered by rules, the promise of a life of freedom. Never “I can’t,” but always “I can.” Always the risk and the surety, never the fear or the question. —Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire

Many people hates Jace, but he has a special place in my heart for everything he taught me while reading his books in my teens. A broken child who grew up to be a happy man, I hope Cassie gives him his happy ending with the love of his life when the last book it's written 🥺♥️

Moodboard for the king’s birthday cause I still have no skills 😌💛

[just-a-maniac-atp-lol]

I have this thing where I cant fall asleep without reminding myself that jace and clary love each other so much and I probably would never find something like that everr and its always a good nighta sleep

He drew back to look at her. With his free hand he traced her cheekbone gently. She had missed that, his gentleness. It was one of the things that had made her fall in love with him in the first place—realizing that this scarred, sarcastic boy was gentle with the things he loved.

ok so I havent read the books in a while so I kind of forget whether the guy is Belial or Mortmain(it's Mortmain though I think. didn't expect him to look that old). On another note, Tessa looks STUNNING here (idek why). Her hair SLAYS.

I think that's T A T I A N A but feel free to correct me If I'm wrong. I REALLY need a reread.

OK SO OMGGGGG THIS WAS A NEED THIS IS DEF MY FAVOURTIE OF THE LOT AND GOD TESSA AND JEM LOOK SOOOOOO GORGEOUS HERE. ITS ICONIC. AND MAY I POINT OUT A STARK CONTRAST TO THE PREVIOUS OLD BLACKFRIARS BRIDGE PICTURE. THEYRE SO MUCH HAPPIER. IT'S EVERYTHING THEY DESERVE.

ICONIC BATTLE SCENE FINALEEE. love that we got Jem as Brother Zachariah too

Honestly getting so much new shadowhunter art after SO LONG feels like oxygen (I'm starving for TWP crumbs but this will suffice for now). It's all so stunning!!

She looked sidelong at Jace, who was gazing down the canal. The steely blue light was on him, too, darkening his eyes, the shadows under his cheekbones, the lines of his mouth. When he caught her gaze on him, he looked over and smiled.

I don’t why but I always loved this quote but most people wouldn’t give it a second thought. Like Jace is so used to people looking at him but he really only cares about Clary’s attention on him. He always gets kinda nervous when Clary’s gaze is on him, proof:

When Midnight Comes

City of Ashes

I just know he smiles and feels butterflies whenever he catches her staring 🤍

[clacesource]

smoustart: The emotional turmoil these two gave me in high school is unparalleled…

[wyndryga]

the mortal instruments was a wild ass series. gay wizards. cunty vampires. angels nailed to basement floors. the heroine's father claims her boyfriend is his long lost son for like two or three books. werewolves run a chinese restaurant.

[jacelightwood]

now we know why jace always has to be the best at everything he does because if he wasn’t valentine would punish him for it. so get your “jace is a cocky self centered bastard” out of my face. him trying to be the best isn’t a character trait it’s a survivor skill he was forced to learn. his entire character is built on survivor skills and defense mechanisms.

[buddyhollyscurls]

I literally need everyone to stop what they're doing and watch midnight at the para palace ok its SO GOOD and i need more ppl to scream about it with. It's a Turkish drama that has time travel, history, espionage, and FALLING IN LOVE AND FINDING EACH OTHER IN DIFFERENT TIMELINES

its 8 eps and on netflix PLEASE

He made a sound like a choked laugh before he reached out and pulled her into his arms. She was aware of Luke watching them from the window, but she shut her eyes resolutely and buried her face against Jace’s shoulder. He smelled of salt and blood, and only when his mouth came close to her ear did she understand what he was saying, what he had been whispering before, and it was the simplest litany of all: her name, just her name.

Jace looked at Clary. She could see herself reflected in his eyes, looking small and pale and dirty. She wondered if she looked different to him after last night. She had almost expected him to look different to her, when she woke up in the morning by the cold remains of the fire, with his hand in hers. But he was the same Jace, the Jace she had always loved. And he looked at her as he always had, as if she were a small miracle, the kind you kept close to your heart.

[debutsdestar]

NO STOP

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY IN THESE WORLD WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT DON'T LIKE CLARY OR JACE OR BOTH?

I MEAN

HOW'S THAT POSSIBLE

TSC addresses the concept of immortality in a superior way, and you cannot convince me otherwise. The fact that we’ve gotten to see lifetimes of love and loss with Magnus and Tessa is so uniquely beautiful and heartbreaking. They’re not surrounded by other immortals to live out long immortal lives together. We’re not seeing just a glimpse of their lives that makes things lose context. It’s so special because we’ve seen them falling in love with mortals over the course of multiple lifetimes, but also seen the ruin of the loss of multiple lifetimes. We feel the dread of knowing their current loved ones will one day be just another memory. It is just so compelling and so well done.
