They are both so desperately in love and it kills me.

“A brother and sister who disagree on everything, except for how much they love one another, and how loyal they are to each other.” 

A parabatai is a pair of Nephilim warriors who fight together as lifelong partners, their souls bound together by oath and their angelic bond.

“Never.” Isabelle took his hand, the one Alec wasn’t holding, and pressed it fiercely. “Lightwoods, all together.” She whispered. Jace’s hand was suddenly damp where she was holding it, and he realized she was crying, her tears splashing down crying for him, because she loved him; even after everything that had happened, she still loved him. They both did. He fell asleep like that, with Isabelle on one side of him and Alec on the other, as the sun came up with the dawn.” ― Cassandra Clare, City of Lost Souls

“When did you get so wise?” Jace said. Alec laughed, a short, brittle laugh. “The day I’m wise is the day you’re careful.” “Maybe you’ve always been wise,” Jace said. “I remember when I asked if you wanted to be parabatai, and you said you needed a day to think about it. And then you came back and said yes, and when I asked you why you agreed to do it, you said it was because I needed someone to look after me. You were right. I never thought about it again, because I never had to. I had you, and you’ve always looked after me. Always.”
