Shadowhunters Rewatch

Episode 36 - What Lies Beneath 

Think that’s really Dom Sherwood playing the Owl? He looks way taller 

I never thought that glamour looked like an owl and I still don’t

Why is Luke always being forced to “pick a side”? First it was the pack or Clary, and now it’s the pack or Simon. Why can’t ya’ll just leave him alone??

Why does Rosa have such a strong accent but Raphael doesn’t?

I thought Heidi died because of that other vampire (sorry, his name escapes me) so why does she think Simon is her sire? Is he her sire because he bit her first? I’m confused

How does literally no one notice every time Jace leaves the Institute to kill someone??

Poor Raphael 😢

Malec being domestic ☺️

Simon, you really don’t know when to shut up

So like is Maryse the only one who gets exiled after the Circle investigation is reopened? Cuz that’s really unfair. You’d think Jace’s being a Herondale would get her some leniency considering his grandma is the Inquisitor and probably has a say in what happens. 

Also, isn't there like a statute of limitations or something??

Maryse: My generation nearly destroyed everything in our passion to fix it. Yours will have to be wiser. (I almost feel like this a reference to Baby Boomers/Millennials lol)

What happens if Simon and Maia are like super rough together in bed - does it activate the Mark? cuz that would be bad lmao

Can’t Simon just stay with Maia after he gets kicked out of the boat shed?

I don’t understand how draining possessed mundanes of their blood and giving it to a dead Jonathan = his rebirth  

Wow, lot’s of questions lol

I’m fine. You’re fine. It’s fine. 🍸

And he promised you if you ever felt lonely, all you had to do is look up at those stars and know that your big brother was out there, thinking of you.

Raphael Santiago, Shadowhunters (3x03)

[faejilly]

we all knew this was coming, right? right. because #Lightwood Family Feels & #Maryse Fucking Lightwood People (SH 3x03, aka jilly *cries forever* via fic.)

Jace and Isabelle both send their regrets.

Maryse can feel the echoes of the anger that would have been her reaction such a short time ago. How dare they, disrespectful, dismissive. It makes her stomach clench. She is careful not to think how much that voice sounds like Valentine. Tries and fails not to think how Robert would have soothed, and patted, and riled her up all the more.

So he could be the reasonable one? 

She’s not sure if that’s fair. She can’t tell, she’s too close, too hurt, too tired. Her own judgement has clearly never been that good.

She always thought herself so sharp.

She wishes she still had a voice in her head that sounded like her brother to drown them out. But Max would’ve hated the woman she’d grown into, and she’d lost the last whispers of his voice years ago.

Why hadn’t that worried her more, when it had happened? Why hadn’t she even noticed?

She’s going to have to listen to her own voice now. And hope it’s gotten dramatically wiser in the last few weeks than the previous two decades, so she doesn’t hurt her children too much again.

She puts her phone away, and finishes getting ready to go. Ignores the weight of sorrow, too thick in her throat. 

She doesn’t have the right to feel hurt. Why wouldn’t they put their duty before their mother? It’s only what she taught them, time and time again. They don’t know...

Which is of course the point, they don’t, and she needs to tell them before they find out and it’s hard to breathe and she wishes she had something stronger than wine clenched between her fingers as she leaves. 

She wishes she didn’t know that, however politely worded, there was assuredly very little regret in either of them for missing her. For abandoning their brother to her presence, yes, but not for her.

Not that she deserves it.

Maybe she will, some day. 

She won’t if she doesn’t actually go to dinner and talk to Alec.

Apologize to Magnus. 

If he’ll let her. She knows he’s here for Alec, not for her, but the fact that he is? She doesn’t deserve that either. 

She hopes she doesn’t screw it up. Again. So many broken shards of her life, and she was the one who swung the hammer. It twists like a blade between her ribs, sharp and deep and a scrape along her bones, to see who Alec has become, now that he got away from her. To see him happy, and only realize by the change how profoundly unhappy he’d been before. How profoundly she’d almost broken him. Almost broke all four of them.

They are so much stronger than she was. She’s so grateful. 

She sniffs and shakes her head and makes herself enter Magn--. 

She walks into their building. Uses the elevator. It opens at the penthouse level with a subdued *ding* and she stares out at the hallway, the carpet, the wide double doors. The elevator door closes before she manages to move, and she swallows.

Well. That’s ridiculous of her. 

She wonders if she should have worn a different dress, a different color, put her hair up, maybe a different wine?

This is not less ridiculous. 

She pushes the button to open the doors again, and strides down the hallway, and she’s fine, she can do this, she loves him, he knows she loves him, doesn’t he?

She stops again, looks at the gold PH in front of her. Waiting. She sighs, feels the shudder of her breath. She does love him. She is so proud of him. She knows she can tell him that. It’s a place to start.

She smiles, breathes, makes sure it doesn’t wobble.

She knocks. 

[alexandergbane]

Really upset that our 2 minutes and 30 seconds of malec in 3x04 looks angsty. Also i got lazy around Magnus' mouth lol

[faejilly]

I mean

it adds a bittersweet edge to Alec’s consistent and regular and straightforward declarations of his devotion to Magnus. 

This is the only thing I’m doing right. 

I mean, to add to Maryse’s visit; he and Isabelle were completely wrong in regards why Maryse wanted to talk to them, and how she’d react to her divorce, and what she really thought was important now. To be fair I bet they would’ve been right a year ago, but he’s really got to be questioning his judgement at this point.
