Maia and Jordan’s first meeting (part III)

[Caption: gifs from Shadowhunters. In a flashback, Maia sits on the beach, reading, despite the cold. Jordan, after conversing with her, tells her she knows a lot about the ocean for someone that doesn’t get in. She jokes sometimes she puts her feet in the water, maybe an ankle if she feels adventurous, but that she prefers to sit and watch the waves to keep her mind off the bad things that happen on dry land. He says he gets it and introduces himself; she does the same as they shake hands, laughing. He proclaims it’s his duty to get her to surf jsut one time; Maia replies it’s never goign to happen, shaking her head when he asks if she’s sure. He smiles and tells her to suit herself, walking to the shore, and she smiles looking at him, putting her book up again.]

Maia and Jordan’s first meeting (part II)

In which Maia is me.

[Caption: gifs from Shadowhunters. In a flashback, Jordan and Maia meet on the beach in a cold season, while she reads and he wants to surf. He’s asked why she won’t go in the water, and a bit awkward, she reveals she’s terrified of the ocean. He says there’s no need to be and shark attacks are a lot rarer than one thinks. Maia replies it’s not just sharks, but everything; she can swim in a pool all day long but you don’t know what’s out there: fish, stingrays, giant mutant octopuses that swallow… He interrupts her, saying if she means octopi, and she corrects him saying it’s octopuses, telling him to look it up and making Jordan smile.]

Maia and Jordan’s first meeting (part I)

[Caption: gifs from Shadowhunters. In a flashback, Maia, wit long hair, reads on the beach. Jordan arrives with a surfboard, and tells her than on a cold day like the one they’re in, he thought he’d have the beach all to himself. She asks if he’s really going in the water, incredulous, and when he replies that he’s planning on it, she tells her the water is freezing, and he points out to his full-bodied swim suit. She nods and smiles, going back to her book, and he asks “You don’t surf, do you?”; she replies “never”, and he says it’s to bad and asks why. She covers her face with the book, embarrassed, so he says that it’s just the two of them and the seagulls, and promises to keep her secret.]

quitting

[Caption: gifs of Maia and Jordan in Shadowhunters. The set shows her looking after him as he walks away angry, unmoored; the two of them kissing in his car; aia looking up with a wound on her neck, crying as he walks away after lashing out during a transformation; and the camera moving towards her as she remembers their past, with tears in her eyes. The gifs come with lyrics: “They say quitters never win, but it’s time to give you up: I wrote your name on my last cigarette and breathed in death one final time. I smoked you down to the filter and exhaled. / The way you smiled like the sun was spilling out of your lips; the day you picked me up, how you made me feel weighless in every sense of the word. / Sleepless nights, eleven poems about you, and all my dreams burning up in smoke (the scent still lingers / on my jacket and my hair, clinging like a stubborn child; but your ghost is no longer welcome here.”]

(insp)

[Caption: gifs from Shadowhunters. They each show a moment between Isabelle and Raphael, with a phrase and a symbol illustrating an action. The set shows the two of them cooking together, with Raphael pressed behind her and Isabelle looking at him affected (“play” the moments); Raphael holding her in his arms in the alley, revealing he doesn’t know why he helped her (“pause” the memories); Isabelle backing away from him after issuing an ultimatum, when she finds out he’s been experimenting on Heidi (“stop” the pain); and Isabelle smiling when she sees him still alive after Valentine activated the sword, and while talking to him in the Institute after a Council meeting (“replay” the happiness).]

         Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers    Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters

[Caption: three gifs blending moments from Maia and Jordan in Shadowhunters, to the lyrics of Howl, by Florence and The Machine. The set includes Maia and Jordan looking at each other, distressed, after he attacks her and stratches during a transformation; Maia confronting him in his apartment, crying, while he looks shaken; and Maia screaming at him while they were searching for Lilith. The lyrics go “If you could only see the best you’ve made of me. I held it in but now it seems you’ve let it running free. / Screaming in the dark, I howl when we’re apart. Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart. / My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in. You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to howl.”]

Gift for @equusgirl

“He supposed that even in Hell, people got an occasional sip of water, if only so they could appreciate the full horror of unrequited thirst when it set in again.”               ―Stephen King.

[Caption: various gifs of Isabelle Lightwood and Raphael Santiago from Shadowhunters, accompanied by the quote written above the description. The set includes images from episodes 3x03, and 3x04, where Raphael stared at the veins in Isabelle’s wrist; Isabelle walked out of his apartment disappointed; and where the two of them had tears in their eyes when Isabelle told him to leave town.]

8. Realize that this love was not your trainwreck, was not the truck that flattened you, was not your Waterloo, did not cause massive hemorrhaging from a rusty knife. That love is still to come.

[Caption: stills of Raphael and Isabelle’s scenes in carious moments of season 3b accompanied by the quote above. The first image contains Raphael watching Isabelle’s back as she walks away from him in s03e04, after giving him an ultimatum. The second one has a picture of the two of them in the food kitchen of episode 15, overlayed with their hands as they held onto each other’s fingers, with a handcuffed Raphael. The third and last image fuses a recently human Raphael looking agitated at the sun through a window, with him and Isabelle standing together in front another window in the Institute; the effect looks as if Raphael is staring at the sun that sneaks behind Isabelle’s head.]
