    Cassandra Clare
    “When you love someone, they become a part of who you are. They're in everything you do. They're in the air you breathe and the water you drink and the blood in your veins. Their touch stays on your skin and their voice stays in your ears and their thoughts stay in your mind. You know their dreams because their nightmares pierce your heart and their good dreams are your dreams too. And you don't think they're perfect, but you know their flaws, the deep-down truth of them, and the shadows of all their secrets, and they don't frighten you away; in fact you love them more for it, because you don't want perfect. You want them. You want—"

    He broke off then, as if realizing everyone was looking at him again.

    "You want what?" said Dru with enormous eyes.

    "Nothing," Julian said. "I'm just talking.”

    “Hello? This is Clary Fairchild.”

    “Clary? It’s me, Emma.”

    “Oh, Emma, hi! I haven’t heard from you in ages. My mom says thanks for the wedding flowers, by the way. She wanted to send a note but Luke whisked her away on a honeymoon to Tahiti.”

    “Tahiti sounds nice.”

    “It probably is — Jace, what are you doing with that thing? There is no way it’ll fit.”

    “Is this a bad time?”

    “What? No! Jace is trying to drag a trebuchet into the training room. Alec, stop helping him.”

    “What’s a trebuchet?”

    “It’s a huge catapult.”

    “What are they going to use it for?”

    “I have no idea. Alec, you’re enabling! You’re an enabler!”

    “Maybe it is a bad time.”

    “I doubt there’ll be a better one. Is something wrong? Is there anything I can do?”

    “I think we have your cat.”

    “What?”

    “Your cat. Big fuzzy Blue Persian? Always looks angry? Julian says it’s your cat. He says he saw it at the New York Institute. Well, saw him. It’s a boy cat.”

    “Church? You have Church? But I thought — well, we knew he was gone. We thought Brother Zachariah took him. Isabelle was annoyed, but they seemed to know each other. I’ve never seen Church actually likeanyone like that.”

    “I don’t know if he likes anyone here. He bit Julian twice. Oh, wait. Julian says he likes Ty. He’s asleep on Ty’s bed.”

    “How did you wind up with him?”

    “Someone rang our front doorbell. Diana, she’s our tutor, went down to see what it was. Church was in a cage on the front step with a note tied to it. It said For Emma. This is Church, a longtime friend of the Carstairs. Take care of this cat and he will take care of you. —J.”

    “Brother Zachariah left you a cat.”

    “But I don’t even really know him. And he’s not a Silent Brother any more.”

    “You may not know him, but he clearly knows you.”

    “What do you think the J stands for?”

    “His real name. Look, Emma, if he wants you to have Church, and you want Church, you should keep him.”

    “Are you sure? The Lightwoods —“

    ‘They’re both standing here nodding. Well, Alec is partially trapped under a trebuchet, but he seems to be nodding.”

    “Jules says we’d like to keep him. We used to have a cat named Oscar, but he died, and, well, Church seems to be good for Ty’s nightmares.”

    “Oh, honey. I think, really, he’s Brother Zachariah’s cat. And if he wants you to have him, then you should.”

    “Why does Brother Zachariah want to protect me? It’s like he knows me, but I don’t know why he knows me.”

    “I don’t exactly know … But I know Tessa. She’s his — well, girlfriend seems not the right word for it. They’ve known each other a long, long time. I have a feeling they’re both watching over you.”

    “That’s good. I have a feeling we’re going to need it.”

    “Emma — oh my God. The trebuchet just crashed through the floor. I have to go. Call me later.”

    “But we can keep the cat?”

    “You can keep the cat.”

    "I don't think I remember that," said Isabelle, taking a cookie from the plate on the table.

    "Yes, I'm sure he would. Did you name the Mustang too?"

    “Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself.”
    John Green
