"You swore to stay with me," he said. "When we made our oath, as parabatai. Our souls are knit. We are one person, James."
"We are two people," said Jem. "Two people with a covenant between us."
Will knew he sounded like a child, but he could not help it.
"A covenant that says you must not go where I cannot come with you."

And then she thought of the first words she had ever heard Jem speak, his eyes closed, his back to her, his face to the moonlight. Will? Will, is that you? The way Will's voice, his face softened for Jem as it did for no one else; the way Jem had gripped Will's hands in the infirmary while he'd bled, the way Will had called out James! when the warehouse automaton had knocked Jem down.

"Reading your words, what you wrote, how you were lonely sometimes and afraid, but always brave; the way you say the world, its colors and textures and sounds. [...] I dreamed what you dreamed, wanted what you wanted—and then I realized that truly I just wanted you. The girl behind the scrawled letters. I loved you from the moment I read them. I love you still."

"You and I, Tess, we're alike. We live and breathe words. It was books that kept me from taking my own life after I thought I could never love anyone, never be loved by anyone again. It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them."

"I can offer you my life, but it is a short life; I can offer you my heart, though I have no idea how many more beats it shall sustain. But I love you enough to hope that you will not care that I am being selfish in trying to make the rest of my life—whatever its length—happy, by spending it with you."

"Having a lie-in, no doubt," said Jem, "and as for him being a witness, well, everyone thinks Will is a lunatic as it is—"
"Ah," said a voice from the doorway, "having your annual everyone-thinks-Will-is-a-lunatic meeting, are you?"
"It's biannual," said Jem. "And no, this is not that meeting."

"Sophie did this?" [...]
"Yes," Tessa said, "and do stop repeating it."
"I think I may be in love with you, Sophie," said Will. "Marriage could be on the cards."

"James, you are all the family I have." Will's voice shook. "I would die for you. You know that. I would die without you. If it were not for you, I would be dead a hundred times over these past five years. I owe you everything, and if you cannot belief I have empath, perhaps you might at least believe I know honor—honor, and debt—"

"Sophie? Might I ask you something?"
She knew she should correct him, ask him to call her Miss Collins, but she didn't. "I—yes?"
"Whatever happens with the lessons—might I see you again?"

"Jem is dying anyway," Will said in a choked voice. "Jem is what I have allowed myself. I tell myself, if he dies, it is not my fault. He is dying anyway, and in pain. Ella's death at least was swift. Perhaps through me he can be given a good death." He looked up miserable, met Magnus's accusing eyes. "No one can life with nothing," he whispered. "Jem is all I have."

"[Gideon and Gabriel] are really quite good-looking, not hideous at all."
"I spoke," said Will in sepulchral tones, "of the pitch-black inner depths of their souls."
Tessa snorted. "And what color do you suppose the inner depths of your soul are, Will Herondale?"
"Mauve," said Will.
