Both Livvy and Dru Blackthorn deserve the world🖤🖤🖤. I Love you. I love you. I love you.
when the whole fandom is just geniuses lol
random thought I had the other day but never shared but. Ty lowkey parallels King David. I was thinking about QOAAD & the Battle on the Imperishable Fields, and how it's kinda weird Ty is mentioned multiple times to be using slingshot because that's not a typical shadowhunter weapon we see. then it occurred to me that literally a battle where giants show up and Ty helps "slay" them so to speak. like David & Goliath, which is also previously mentioned in QOAAD by Emma
where Julian's words are equated to David's stones. and by the way, David is said to have five stone and who's the fifth Blackthorn to try & speak to Julian & Emma? Ty. and this is what happens when he does.
not only that but King David of David & Goliath fame is also the David of (biblical) David & Jonathan fame, which the parabatai law draws inspiration from. aka the thing actively going wrong at that very moment. Biblical Jonathan also dies btw. and you wanna know what the icing on the the cake is? David's dad's name is Jesse.
theres no way this isn't a purposeful reference but I have no idea if it's like. just CC having fun or something that had Implications. food for thought.
i have returned after spending the past like... 2 days reading qoaad whenever i had free time? which was, unfortunately, not a lot, so i took a while
so, basically, ive finished the whole of qoaad in two days, and now have nothing to read bc the wait time for sword catcher on my library's libby app is 6 weeks
but regardless, i will never be the same again. qoaad has changed me, yall. i dont think i will ever recover from kitty. i wait even more impatiently now for twp
also, ive almost read every book in the series (that isnt a kickstarter)! now ive just gotta read notable shadowhunters & denizens of the underworld (not the updated one bc, again, i dont have any of the kickstarter books. sob 😭.)
yall.... i was checking the my book stats for qoaad on libby (dont ask, i was bored.)
now, i havent yet borrowed the book. ive got it on reserve, ive been waiting for 2 weeks, im first in line
so i look at the stats. and idk if this is a glitch, or if ive just read the sample way too many times for it to be healthy, but...
my stats say i have read that book for 1h 5min.
The full Shadowhunter family tree, as we currently know it
| Red line = romantic affiliation
| Yellow line = siblings
| Green line = parent/child relationship
| Dotted line = relationships we haven't seen happen yet but exist
| Dark grey boxes = dead characters
| Blue boxes = Immortal characters
Reading Lady Midnight thinking Kit is finally a Herondale with emotional intelligence. Then reading about him kissing Livvy while thirsting after Ty in Lord of Shadows. And then reading about him leavimg the country after feeling rejected in QOAAD.
We. Just. Can‘t. Win.
