Lol I agree
Lol I agree
it makes me sad as well! i want jace to stay best shadowhunter that ever lived for his age! oh well his still the hottest shadowhunter i guess
best MALE shadowhunter out theirabout time we had a skilled female shadowhunter that can beat out jace lol
i mean clary is skilled and learning and all and shes got that angel power and angel blood but shes still no match for jace
AND THERE BETTER BE LOTS OF MAGNUS IN HERE
oh man its only been 5 years, if alec doesnt die in that series, then magnus and alec should STILL BE TOGETHER
and perhaps hes immortal
who's excited!!!
and do u think we'll get to see tessa in the dark artifices, i mean why not right? she lives forever, so if not in tda, whats she up to right?
oh and maybe tessa helps out in the final battle in cohf by disguising herself as sebastian or some high power clave member, or sebastians second in command, idk but somehow tricks the bad guys eh?
I'm so excited for this series! Way more excited than i was for Infernal Devices. I have a really strong feeling Cassandra will do something DIFFERENT for once. No love triangles, no human-girl-meets-magical-world. So I've got my fingers crossed! :)

i know yeah, sounds like shes got better ideas then the actual author
aww thanks guys wow that was really flattering!
but yeah, dont you guys kinda want more crossover characters that are primary, not secondary characters
i mean im all for magnus, ragnor, camille, woosley,and church and chairman meow (sorry if i missed any)
but since tessa is apparently immortal and shes a main character, it makes sense that eventually somehow she should be in the last 2 books of tmi, and i mean really BE in them, not just this random cameo or rare 2 second unexplicable shot of seeing her, i mean goddess, talk about cliffhanger!
dont get me wrong i love cassie, but how do you have a cameo of tessa in city of glass in the epilogue so its like cliffhanger, but still leave it unexplained for THREE books. no mention in CA which is understandable cuz its the first book in tid, but not even any mention in cp OR CoFA!!! thats harsh.
at first i thought itd be cool if they did an epilogue in cp2 of tessa meeting magnus cuz magnus needed to talk to her about clary, hence the scene in CoG
but now i want more thant that. itd be cool if the final clockwork princess book is that magnus sends tessa to the future to that time to talk to future magnus GASP cuz maybe in the future, they have the potions, specifically magnus does or knows how to get.......wait for it........
THE CURE TO SAVE JEMS LIFE
OMG OMG OMG I WANT SO BADLY FOR THAT THEORY TO BE TRUE!!!
lol cassandra clare actually did say shes going to reveal magnus and tessa convo from cog in cp2
yes!!! thats awesomeim still hoping for it to be past tessa with future magnus asking for cure for jem LOL
THATS WAY COOLER
See what I mean? You should write these books man! Really good theories :) have you done any fanfiction?
no, but im a fan....of a fanfiction lol....i read a lot of fanfic, but im not a good writer
like i have ideas and theories just mostly on what we ALL want to happen as readers right?
but i have major trouble putting thoughts to paper, you know?
though my sis writes a lot of fanfic, but sadly i cant
just no good at it.
but you definitely bossted my self-esteem on the topic <3 THANKS!
do you write fanfic?
its alright! your ideas are brilliant, yeah i know what you mean, thats shame because id read your fanfic, no i can write quite well put cant develop my ideas enough.
Okay....u and I would make the perfect team!We could write a parody of tmi and tid and I bet everybody (at least everybody on this site) would read it
One day.... I have an account on fanfic so if I ever decide to start writing, ill let you guys know lol
we will be waiting Vixen the great one
The Blackthorns: Behind the names
"We know that “[a]ll the Blackthorns have Greek or Latin mythology and history based names because their father is a classicist.”
As a history student and someone who is also interested in names and their meanings (how can I not be when my names mean ‘Pure hope’?), I did a little digging for the Blackthorn family.
1. Arthur: He is the father so his name might be random or his parents were fond of Greek/Latin mythology or history based names as well. The name makes me think of the legendary King Arthur. The meaning of the name Arthur is unknown/unclear.
2. Mark Antony: The oldest child/son. Mark Antony was a Roman politician and general. Mark is from Marcus and is probably derived from the name of the Roman god Mars (the god of war). Antony is from the Roman family name Antonius.
3. Helen: The second oldest. Helen of Troy anyone?
4. Julian: Roman name Iulianus -> Julius Caesar. Simple as that. His nickname is Jules.
5. Tiberius: The older twin. Tiberius was a Roman Emperor, it means ‘of the Tiber’ (a river in Italy). His nickname is Tibs.
6. Olivia: The younger twin. Olivia is a Latinate (oliva -> olive) and this is derived from the Greek ἐλαία. Shakespeare first used this name in Twelfth Night. Her nickname is Livvy.
7. Drusilla: Sister of Caligula, the 3rd Emperor of the Roman Empire. It’s from the Greek drosos (dew) and means fruitful or dewy-eyed. Drusilla was also a vampire in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its spin-off Angel. Cassie is a Buffy fan.
8. Octavius: The baby. Adopted by Julius Caesar. 1st Emperor of the Roman Empire. From the Latin word octavus meaning eight. His nickname is Tabby."

I thought ur parabatai was the same gender like Will and Jem, Jace and Alec. I guess things change in 5 years

"Los Angeles, 2012. It’s been five years since the events of the Mortal Instruments when Nephilim stood poised on the brink of oblivion and Shadowhunter Emma Carstairs lost her parents. After the blood and violence she witnessed as a child, Emma has dedicated her life to the eradication of demons and being the best, fastest and deadliest Shadowhunter since Jace Lightwood. Raised in the Los Angeles Institute, Emma is paired as a parabatai with her best friend, Julian. As Emma hunts those who caused the death of her parents, the trail they’re following leads back to those they’ve always been taught to trust. At the same time, Emma is falling in love with Julian — her closest friend and, because he is her parabatai, the one person in the world she’s absolutely forbidden by Shadowhunter Law to love. Set against the glittering backdrop of present-day Los Angeles, Emma must learn to trust her head and her heart as she investigates a demonic plot that stretches from the warlock-run nightclubs of the Sunset Strip to the enchanted sea that pounds the beaches of Santa Monica."
