surprise, fellow kids. I bet you thought you’d seen the last of thestarkster1465

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!

friendly reminder that jem calls mina "silly melon" and "little mina" which are very common endearments used by chinese parents (e.g. 傻瓜/呆瓜/笨蛋/小...)

another reminder that he most likely learned them from his mother and i cant stop thinking about baby!jem being called every term of endearment under the sun bc i refuse to believe that the boy whose smile could light up an entire room was anything but loved™

Tessa: Alright, so I'm in love with Will.

Sophie:

Tessa: Thoughts?

Sophie: And prayers.

I'm gonna say it.

It's unhinged to assume that someone's taste in fiction equates to what they believe is moral or good, or is something they want to see or experience in real life.

That is a bonkers assumption to make.

I'm tired of humoring people with long arguments about it when the simple fact is it is a totally fucking absurd reach to accuse someone who enjoys something in fiction of being in favor of it in real life.

I'm tired of pretending like this is a legitimate position to hold-- that they should be afraid of fiction's dire influence on a reader's moral decay or that it's a sign of what the author secretly wants for realsies in real life.

I promise you it is still getting me death threats in 2024.

TSC discourse I saw on twitter I never thought I'd see: People saying that shipping Heronstairs is incest.

I saw this this morning and I was like "huh, this is a new low even for tsctwt"

I saw it as well, even though my twitter is not for fandom, I don't know how it made it to my algorithm. weird stuff tho.

(Gifset from here)

Why is it when Shadowhunters need a Warlocks‘s help, it‘s always you three?

Finals

Will Herondale never lived in a world where Jem Carstairs didn't exist

He was born second and died first

Lucie: Who‘s your favourite child?

Tessa: You must know, that we love-

Will: Cordelia!

Will: Without question

Tessa:

James: She isn‘t even your daughter?

Lucie *muttering under her breath*: I mean, to be fair, Daisy would be my favourite as well

the miracle of being here

the funniest thing in tsc is church hating every single person on the planet other than jem
