“The skylight needs washing too. It’s filthy. No wonder it’s nearly pitch-black in here.”
I have a feeling the old woman knows and is trying to stall her from going up there
“I’m Isabelle Lightwood, by the way. I live here.”
I forgot that her brother was a lightwood and i was wondering if she was related to cecily lmao
“Oh, he’s rude to everyone,” said Isabelle airily. “It’s what makes him so damn sexy. That, and he’s killed more demons than anyone else his age.”
Lmaooo
Jace was seated at the grand piano, his slender hands moving rapidly over the keys.
Hot
“Alec?” he said. “Is that you?” “It’s not Alec. It’s me.” She stepped farther into the room. “Clary.”
Dont start doing this to me again CLARE
“Hey, Church,” Jace said, stroking the cat’s back with a bare foot. The cat slit its eyes in pleasure.
Gtfo Church done live forever orrrr
“We may be parabatai,” Alec said tightly, “but your flippancy is wearing on my patience.”
The way they act like they hate each other tho has me dead
Can I call him? Is there a phone?” She turned to Jace. “Please.”
I want to make a guess that luke is either Jocelyn's parabatai or was Clary's fathers parabatai
“I’m not your father, Clary. I’ve told you that before.”
“Don’t call me for favors again,” he said. “I’ve got my own problems, I don’t need to be bothered with yours,” he added, and hung up the phone.
The fuxk?!
As if from a distance, she heard Alec laugh. “Not everyone wants you all the time, Jace,” he said.
“No. Valentine is—was—a Shadowhunter.” “A Shadowhunter? Why do you say was?” “Because he’s dead,” said Hodge flatly. “He’s been dead for sixteen years.”
Dead 16 yrs? Shadowhunter?! Thats ya papa, Clary
Her hand cracked across his face, a slap that rocked him back on his heels.
Lmaoo
“What the hell was that for?” “The other ten percent,” she said,
Deceased
“Haven’t you ever heard that modesty is an attractive trait?” “Only from ugly people,” Jace confided.
Oh my god
My father and his father were parabatai when they were young. His father was my godfather—that’s why I live with them. They’re my adopted family.”
Jace, Clary thought, was the sort of person who liked it when things were happening, even things that were bad.
“So observant,” said Dorothea, her eyes gleaming. “The Clave really broke the mold with you.”
Lmaooo i knew Madame Dorthea knew some shite
“Forgive me? For what?” “For telling me to shut up.” His eyes narrowed. “I did not… Well, I did, but you were—”
I dont remember him telling her to shut up
“Through the Portal,” Jace said, examining the padlock. “It takes you to whatever place you’re thinking of.”
This is henry and magnus's invention :')
“That is so awesome,” he said. Jace looked as startled as Clary felt. “Awesome?”
Lmaooo
Pangborn cackled. “Jealous, Graymark? Perhaps you no longer feel about her the way you used to.”
Jocelyn? Can they be talking about my mother?
Uh ya dum dum
“Two Shadowhunters, exiled from their own kind, you can see why we might have banded together.
“It’s nice to see that you’ve developed a healthy respect for your own skin over the years, Lucian.
I don’t want to get involved in your politics. I hate Valentine,” he added, “but I respect him.
“Of course she isn’t.” It was Jace, his voice sharp and cold as ice shards.
:)
‘Death to Demons’ painted on the outside, or…”
Dope band name
he’d have to help her find Jocelyn, whether he wanted to or not. For now, at least, he couldn’t leave her alone.
She has a crushhhh
who was walking a few paces ahead of them, apparently conversing with the cat.
Lmao
Jace was glaring at the cat. “I told you to bring me to Alec! Backstabbing Judas.” Church rolled onto his back, purring contentedly.
Lmaooo
To Clary’s surprise, Simon said nothing to this. He was too busy staring at Isabelle, rapt and
Oh my goddd
Jace to the refrigerator. “I can’t believe you’re eating,” she hissed. “What should I be doing instead?” he inquired
I love him
“No one wants any soup.” “I want some soup,” Simon said. “No, you don’t,” said Jace. “You just want to sleep with Isabelle.”
OH MY GOD
“Mmgnstayhr,” he mumbled, looking at his feet. “What?” “I’m going to stay here.” Simon parked himself on a stool. “I’m hungry.”
Theyre gonna end up together
“I know,” he said, surprising her. “There’s something about you that’s so—” “Irritating?” “Unsettling.”
Me giggling and kicking my feet
“Because,” said Hodge, “she was Valentine’s wife.”
KNEW IT someone praise me
“Dear God,” said Jace, “the dread hour is nigh.”
Hahahahah hes so much like Will
“Everything we need to know is locked up in your head, under those pretty red curls.”
Teeehehee
“They are librarians.” Simon whistled. “Those must be some killer late fees.”
Simon is fighting for his life for just ONE GIGGLE YALL
Clary found that Simon had disappeared and she was now dancing with Jace, who was wearing white, the material of his shirt a thin cotton;
“I found you asleep on the floor in the hallway.” Jace sounded amused.
Wtf lmaoooo
“I decided you were right, Jace,” said Hodge. “I was right,” said Jace. “I usually am.”
“Aren’t you, uh…” Clary searched for the right word. “Reproducing?” Jace burst out laughing
Opp
“Magnus Bane? But—that’s not even a name!”
Oh honey
“Are we ever going to get any coffee?” he said aloud, interrupting Alec midsentence. Alec subsided, his energy fading. “I…”
Hes so mean to Alec :(
Maybe we should all have code names.” “Good idea,” said Jace. “I shall be Hotschaft Von Hugenstein.”
Lmaooo tell me this isnt William behavior
Alec looked at her. “You don’t think he means it? That he likes her, I mean.”
Does Alec have a crush on Jace, theyre parabatai though
