as much as i poke fun at nick, i really adored his development in oathbound. 'ike having recently read legendborn and bloodmarked makes his growth even more stark, and i'm extremely glad to see it
god that alley scene in cofa is so....
Hey y’all! Myself and my friend noticed there was a big hole in the TSC fandom - namely, that there isn’t a Discord server for us all to come together and appreciate/freak out over our favourite Shadowhunters.
So we decided to fix it! Here is your official notice of the creation of The Downworld, a place for us to talk theories, go crazy over our beloved ships, worship those characters that maybe don’t get enough love fandom-wide, and of course, appreciate the absolute genius that is Cassandra Clare.
All we ask is that you be kind and respectful to each other, and agree to our server rules that’ll you see when you join. The server is also 18+ only, so unfortunately we won’t be able to allow minors to join.
If you’d be interested in joining, please feel free to reach out to me or @timesconvert and we’ll get the ball rolling - don’t be scared; unlike Jordan, we don’t bite!
the importance jace puts on the covenant oath and being a shadowhunter with angel blood and the existential duty that comes with only to think he has demon blood in city of glass i

i’ll be honest, i don’t always like the way people talk about what happened to james. i feel like people let themselves be tricked by the supernatural element of the bracelet into thinking that this can’t possibly happen in real life, when the truth is that what happened to him after the bracelet was put on and everything he felt once it was over is indicative of real life experiences. sure, no one is ever gonna put a magical bracelet on your wrist that forces you to love them, but the bracelet is merely a metaphor for real feelings that real people experience when they’re in such a situation: feeling stuck and trapped, feeling like they’re forced to do things they wouldn’t do otherwise. these are feelings james himself explicitly talks about multiple times in the text. he feels ashamed, he feels disgusted with himself, he feels weak for not getting out of it sooner, he feels sick at the thought of talking about what he experienced with anyone, including the people he feels safest with. these are all feelings drawn from the experiences of real life survivors. so whenever you’re tempted to make a joke about the bracelet, or to feel frustrated that he ‘wasn’t even the one to tell cordelia the truth about the bracelet’, or even to say that some other male character would have handled the situation better, please remember that this might be a sensitive topic for some people on your dash. james is fictional, so he’ll never be hurt by what you’re saying, but the people reading your posts are real.
"father is a worm" is probably one of my favourite scenes of all time
