@quallian42 Also mainverse Lucius getting his hands on “I may be bad” Izzy would be fascinating.

Refered to here just as Lucius and Izzy for clarity, but very Mainverse Lucius and May Be Bad Izzy. They're at the Revenge, both on bar stools. Izzy doesn't know where they are, he's never been, but he feels comfortable.

Izzy: I don't...you haven't looked like this in so long.

Lucius: Like what?

Izzy: You're all....informal. Relaxed.

Lucius: Yours doesn't...relax?

Izzy: He does, but it's different. The clothes, the hair...

Lucius: How does he look?

Izzy: Perfected.

Lucius: Well that's going to give me a complex, thanks. I like your hair.

Izzy: Just grew it out.

Lucius: Yeah? Did he ask you to do that?

Izzy: He likes to play with it.

Lucius: I bet. I would too, probably. My Iz probably would if I asked, but I know he worries about it falling in his face at the wrong time.

Izzy: *also worries about this, but doesn't exactly do anything that dangerous anymore* So how's the business?

Lucius: Oh, I sold such a cool piece this week. This guy wanted his lover commemorated and I used pastels-

Izzy: You sell your own art?

Lucius: Yes?

Izzy: On the side?

Lucius: Depends on what you think the main gig is. I mean Stede's paycheck-

Izzy: I haven't heard that name in a long time.

Lucius: Stede? My boss? Not so much for you?

Izzy:....definitely no. Lucius and Jim run the buisness.

Lucius: See you keep saying 'business' like it should have capital letters. What the hell am I doing over there?

Izzy: You took over when Eddy left. I'm mostly retired too.

Lucius: THE SECURITY BUSINESS? No. No?

Izzy: Yeah.

Lucius: So me and Jim are just...bad asses together?

Izzy: Not you. Him.

Lucius: Ouch. I could be a bad ass.

Izzy: *not critical, actually kind of upset* Not like he is. You're...you're what he would've been if I'd never met him.

Lucius: Hey, no, I do have an Izzy, remember?

Izzy: When did you meet him?

Lucius: Uh, I was twenty-sixish.

Izzy; *nods, stares off into the distance* I did this. Fuck. I always thought I had, but...shit.

Lucius: Did what, goblin?

Izzy: *blinks* What did you just call me?

Lucius:...uh never mind. What does your Lucius call you?

Izzy: Darling.

Lucius: Wow, okay. And you like that?

Izzy: Does it matter if I do?

Lucius: Yeah, yeah it does. What the hell? I know what we do over here can get pretty intense, but I don't purposely do things that he hates. That's what safe words are for. You have a safe word, right?

Izzy: *telling silence*

Lucius: oh no, Iz. *reached out to touch his hand, finds to resistance so takes it in his* You're supposed to have a way out. To stop the scene. Both of you.

Izzy: He's never hurt me in a way I didn't like.

Lucius: Not all pain happens to the body.

Izzy: I'm not in pain.

Lucius: Okay. You're...happy?

Izzy: Yeah, I got a nice life. Beautiful place to live. Anything I could want. Safe. Loved. He does love me.

Lucius: *softly* Yeah I know he does. I can't imagine not loving you. And you're not lonely or anything?

Izzy: Nah. Got Read, Anne and Charlie around.

Lucius: Oh that's good.

Izzy: Charlie pretty much moved in. Luc hasn't bitched about it yet, but I guess he's enjoying him as much as I am.

Lucius: Oh yeah? He can be good company, little twerp.

Izzy: He's funny. Sweet when he forgets not to be.

Lucius: Yeah, sure. He's a pain in the ass sometimes, but I love him.

Izzy: You do?

Lucius: Sure, the way you love Read.

Izzy: Oh.

Lucius: ...not like Read?

Izzy: We've been sleeping together.

Lucius: And I'm OKAY WITH THAT? *penny drops* Oh no no no no...I'm not? I AM?

Izzy: It was your idea. You gave him to me.

Lucius: You can't give people to people. That's not how anything works!

Izzy: My Luc does.

Lucius: Oh god, I'm going to puke.

Izzy: *frowns* Why? Charlie is one of the best things in my life.

Lucius: I can't even. Okay. Let's...I can't even think about that. But you're happy. Supposedly.

Izzy: I am.

Lucius: Great. Good. So thrilled. So you guys are solid? Just maybe unorthodox...

Izzy: As long as I don't ask too many questions.

Lucius: About what?

Izzy: Things. Jim and Luc run the business differently.

Lucius: Differently how?

Izzy: That's what I don't ask questions about.

Lucius: Okay, I think we need to talk about long term safety. Like do you have a plan if you have to break up with him?

Izzy: I have a gun.

Lucius: Oh sweet fuck.

*there is not enough time in the world for them to sort this out and the dream dissolves before they can. Lucius urgently texts his goblin when he wakes up, gets a sweet reply and relaxes. Izzy wakes up tense and has a hard time vagueing out until late in the afternoon. He's normal before his Luc comes home.*

Okay, so I’ve noticed a theme in posts recently about Izzy Hands that I want to address. I love Izzy as a character (*chefs kiss* to Con O'Neill's portrayal) and also love exploring him. He is (unfortunately) one of my blorbos. But the thing is that

Izzy Hands is homophobic. He’s a queer coded homophobic homosexual - this immediate interpretation of him that was passed around isn’t wrong.

I’ve seen at least 5 posts now saying he isn’t and it’s kind of bizarre to me? He literally is. So I sort of just want to look at some of the reasons people are saying he isn’t. Ultimately, I think the reading that ‘it’s wrong to say Izzy is homophobic’ comes from like. A misunderstanding of all the forms homophobia can take? Or a belief that if you yourself are mlm you can’t be homophobic?

So one HUGE thing I’ve seen multiple times now is ‘Izzy ignores Pete and doesn’t say anything homophobic to him when he finds Pete and Lucius having sex in Episode 5′. But the fact that Izzy immediately picks on the effeminate gay man and calls him a ‘bitch’ - a pretty damn loaded term in this context - is homophobia. But then why does he ignore Pete? It’s because Izzy’s homophobia is specifically directed towards effeminate gender-non-conforming gay men. Which is a pretty intense form of homophobia, in fact its a wildly common one. ‘I’m okay with someone being homosexual, but I can’t stand all that gay shit’ is like. A huge thing. Do we not remember that dumb meme that was passed around in like 2012 that was all ‘gay people I respect vs. gay people I don’t respect’?

So yes, Izzy ignores Pete in favour of Lucius, but that’s because Lucius is the kind of gay man Izzy takes issue with. And there’s obviously more to it than that, there’s an important class reading (in an episode which is all about class) in that Lucius represents the most educated member of the crew apart from Stede. But that’s not it in it’s totality because the ‘bitch’ line is RIGHT THERE, and the way that Izzy wants to use Lucius’s open flirting with the crew is RIGHT THERE.

And Izzy’s hatred of Stede plays into this; Stede is an imbecele, he’s dumb, he’s ridicious, he’s not the right sort of man. Edward when he allows himself to enjoy the things Stede enjoys is also not being the right sort of man. But wanting men to not be openly feminine in some of their hobbies and personality it just...it IS homophobia.

And Izzy is obviously queer coded. As the show runners said, he has a toxic love for Edward. He gets really close to men and stares at their lips while he argues. Etc. Etc. If Izzy was offered a ‘manly’ no holds bared violent relationship with Ed he wouldn’t have a problem with that at all. If the crew were fucking but like ‘proper pirates’ do (aka calico jack and Ed’s relationship) then Izzy probably wouldn’t have a problem with that either. But just because he doesn’t take issue with mlm relationships in all their forms, that DOESN’T mean he’s not homophobic and denying this part of his character is just...a really weird move in my opinion? And sort of denies him some of the complexities he has?

Idk if people are doing this because they want to make him more sympathetic, or more ‘blorbo-y’ or if they just genuinely don’t see this kind of behaviour as homophobia but. You can like the character even if he is like this you know that right? In fact, this aspect of his character is what makes him interesting to many people and makes people want to explore his backstory and stuff (and maybe give him some kind of redemption arch)? It’s okay to like villains and people in fiction who you wouldn’t IRL? He did all the bad stuff he did and that’s actually very interesting and way more cool than if we sooth him over so he’s easily digestible.

Anyway, that’s my rant.

and i mean it isn’t some kind of a huge “think about why you think this” sanctimonious issue or anything i just personally find flattening izzy to being a stand in for homophobia or toxic masculinity hostile to gayness reductive and boring. i think his relationship w ed is extremely gay? i think he considers ed’s relationship w stede to be him like, making a clown out of himself, he’s becoming someone he’s not, he’s leaving IZZY behind, and yeah izzy ultimately wants power and to be important and cool and he considers himself as deserving of that because he’s ruthless and works hard and has done all the right things to earn the respect and trust of his captain, but like i think the unfairness of “i did everything right but now stede shows up and you like HIM more??” is like a whole thing for him.

like i feel like he’s very much of a play by the rules kind of guy. he sees things as being strictly defined a lot. he has no trouble betraying people so i don’t mean that he has MORALS or that he’s honest but i think he has a clear idea of cause and effect. so stede and ed makes absolutely zero fucking sense to him.

he’s got a superiority complex but he also sees himself as having earned things, like that he’s put in the work and he deserves what he sees to be the logical rewards. he deserves ed’s respect, he deserves his trust, he deserves his love. he should be the one running ed through with a sword. it should be him ed is baring his stomach and throat to. because he’s played by the rules and done everything right.

and he fucking hates stede because he’s disrespectful and he has an attitude and one of the first times they spoke he used izzy as a proxy(!) to tell ed to go fuck himself(!!) and despite this ed respects him and trusts him and izzy is LEFT OUT. he lost to stede the first time they met and he has not stopped losing to him SINCE. he’s jealous and miserable. he wants eds respect and attention so fucking bad but he won’t GIVE IT TO HIM. and he’s a petty bitch over it

3x14 Review

Hey so for once this is actually super positive! I loved this episode and can’t wait to gush about it! So without further ado, I’m gonna get the stuff I quibbled with outta the way before diving into what I liked:

The Bad: — I think my biggest problem overall was that scene between Alec and Lorenzo. I understand Alec was being protective and he goes into Fierce Mommy Tiger mode around those he considers family and those he loves (I think it’s important to show that Magnus isn’t just his boyfriend, Magnus has become integrated into the thing Alec bases his life around). But I had hoped Alec would have figured out by now that a Nephilim threatening to depose a Downward leader over an apartment is…..unideal, at least. — I get that this may have been designed as a plot hook as an understandable yet stupid thing Alec does that comes back to bite him later (i.e., if there is a Downward civil war in New York, and Lorenzo decides to fuck Alec over). Alec’s strength and weaknesses are tied to his family, and I think it’s a very believable mistake for him to make. I don’t expect him to be perfect, I just hope the narrative treats his threat to Lorenzo as less of a “pure uwu cutesy bf” move and more of a mistake, even if Lorenzo is being cruel to Magnus. — Honestly y’all I expected something WAY worse. Losing the apartment was nothing compared to the drama I expected—I thought Lorenzo was gonna ask Magnus to spy on Alec or go back to Asmodeus or something awful. Thankfully that was inverted by a very obvious attempt to get Magnus to move in with Alec, because apparently he can’t buy a new house with all his money. — I also quibbled a little with how Clary was written, especially in that scene where Jace comforts her (or, really, when Jace makes what happened to her about him and how angry he is and how he’s going to kill Jonathan etc. It’s a pattern with him, esp where Jonathan is involved, and I have more to say about it). Clary has always been a very temperamental, look before you leap sort of person, and I’m not sure that if she figured out Jonathan had hurt Jace she would just smile and pretend along. Clary would FREAK. This is Jocelyn’s daughter, y’all. The knives would be out. She stabbed herself to stab him before and she’d do it again. She has ALL the tools at her disposal to rune him or run away. — To be clear, I’m not shaming Clary for what she chose to do or not confronting a violently entitled dude who kidnapped her once already, I just felt the arc was artificially extended to let Jace be the hero instead of letting Clary kick Jonathan’s ass off a pier and rune him. There’s no way that bitch can swim. It seemed kind of….not how Clary would react and kind of artificially done for Jace and Jonathan’s benefit. — Last thing, which isn’t even a quibble but I feel people will be confused if it’s not on here: the Maia and Jordan thing. I’ll go into it more but basically: if they’re doing what I think, I think it worked shockingly well, but if it’s played straight yeah it’ll be Unfortunate.

The Good: — I’m just gonna come out and say this episode was AMAZING. Since this is mostly a positive review I’d like to credit the writer specifically—Zoe Broad. Honestly just the overall coherence of this episode was greater than any of the ones in S3 for me, it flowed from one scene to the other and there was no point where I had the urge to check Facebook or whatever. The dialogue was pretty good overall and truly amazing at parts, and I felt she had a pretty good handle on the characters, despite this being her first episode, which was very impressive. — I actually ENJOYED the ship content??? Clace was absolutely adorable on the rink, with Jace’s sometimes annoying bravado being played wryly both on his part and by the script. “I was born ahead of the curve” delivered with a smile and then nearly falling on his ass was. Very good. And Clary’s little “you’re doing better than me….when I was six” was equally great and I just. Really liked it? They felt like real people on a real date and it felt real and dynamic and cute. — Same with Malec’s grave-robbing date. Usually their scenes start to get weighed down by drama or just general “talking to the audience to make them happy rather than each other,” but this was just cute AND advanced the plot, and connected them back to the main storyline. I hadn’t liked how they were quarantined away from the main story and I’m glad they’re back, even if the “losing Magnus’ loft” was a weird way to do it. — Maia and Alisha particularly were really the breakout stars of the episode. Alisha really really SOLD that dialogue and was honestly incredible. Her terror and anger and desperation felt so visceral and real that even though I knew it would be resolved in the episode, it was gripping and I genuinely needed to know what happened next. — I also did like how Zoe wrote Maia (that “frickin” was TOTALLY a stand in for fuck and I APPRECIATE it) and I felt she really captured how she feels about Jordan—she does care about him as a person, or rather for the person he was at some point, but still refuses to not to push down on her own anger and hurt for his or anyone else’s sake. I felt it was really complex and confusing and emotional for her and overall I think that scene was meant to give her a sense of closure. Just because she recognizes that Jordan does care about her and can be supportive of her, doesn’t mean she’ll necessarily jump back into his arms. — That’s kind of my reading—I’m not sure where they’re going, obviously, but my instinct was that the less chill stuff Maia says (implying they may be going a romantic arc) was more due to the fact she was PANICKING IN A LOCKED CLOSET WITH A DYING DUDE. Like she says “I’m confused” like yes she meant before but honestly right then she obviously was, and I don’t really see the show going for Jordan/Maia? Especially since Todd has hinted Maia has a “don’t need no man” arc. Like she drifts apart from Simon but gets back with someone she hated for years?? Not seeing it. — However if they do go there I’ll be really disappointed, mostly because of the missed opportunity for complexity but also because yeahhhhh maybe not the chillest thing with how many people interpret their relationship as abuse. (I could make a separate post about it but yeah). — Onto Magnus. God okay I don’t know how others felt but I felt Zoe really got to the crux of why Magnus misses his magic. That how he feels connected to the world through his magic was just…such a good insight and it really impacted me because it wasn’t just some generic “magic is what makes me who I am,” it was so much more deep and personal and I felt it meant a lot that Magnus finally put that into words for Alec. He’d clearly been struggling to impart to Alec how he felt, both in terms of “how do I even explain this loss” and a his own emotional reticence. God that grave robbing scene!!!! — Umm the Morningstar sword actually being a sword to summon demons?? Kind of weird?? Esp if they play it off as an actual Morgenstern relic?? Not sure what’s happening but it was cool?? — honestly dudes I’ve been FUCKED UP about the Luke storyline and SUPER STRESSED and now IT’S ALL HAPPENIGN someone SAVE HIM oh my GOD I’m actually so stressed I’ve been stressed for 9 months FREE HIM — Ok now to Jonathan bc lbr y’all know I can’t shut up about him. Ok first off, that scene with the seelie gal, oh my FUCKING GOD I was screaming what a LOSER GHSDKLFJhghghhghgg. And she insults his shitty dialogue?? Zoe ma’am may I PROPOSE??? This keeps getting wilder and wilder I can’t believe they’re GOING THERE. THEY’RE GOING THERE SO HARD. HE’S SUCH A WILD LOSER. Can you BELIEVE he found someone off shadow world fetlife to be like “I’m a Morgenstern and I love you bro you’re so hot and clever and lovable” I just can’t. I bet you ANYTHING she tops and is only in it for the shadow hunter ass. — SHAPESHIFTING. YALL. I BUST A NUT. Look, it fixes so many fucking plot holes. His eyes look SO COOL when he does demon magic. He’s so OP and Chaotic Stupid it’s not even a joke I Lov my Mary Sue Son. — Honestly having Jonathan impersonate Jace is so brilliant (remember when he said, “I don’t want your pity, I want your life?”) Like it is so fucked up but I love it. Not looking forward to the mind control but maybe he just whispered “I’m a bottom” into her ear and ran off in her ensuing shock and confusion. You can’t prove me wrong until next week so until then LA LA LA LA CAN’T HEAR YOU — Personally I liked Dom’s performance as Jonathan, but not to be that Bitch I felt Will was a lot more subtle about it. Dom gave him a straight up thousand mile stare whereas Will played him as something charismatic and good at lying with a little edge of Something Wrong, a strain behind a smile. Sure, Jonathan was probably nervous for his little kidnapping date, but I felt it was unrealistic that he was so suave and convincing (sans the part where Aline comes to visit him that was hilarious, Jonathan you’re an idiot) as Seb and then is like “I eat ants sometimes” as Jace. Like. He’s an obsessive bitch. He’d have practiced Jace in the mirror. Fuck you. Probably while saying “fuck you.” ANYWAYS. — Izzy doing science? It’s not much but I’ll fucking take it lmao. I’m excited to see where Heavenly Fire is going. Matt’s Latin is still abysmal but whatever it’s ok. — also that rose?? A kiss from a rose?? Honestly this ep was so clever and thematically connected and just FLOWED like an ACTUAL EP OF TV god I’m emotional!!!! Thank you Zoe Broad ma’am you are a hero!!! — Again I’m gonna point out both Jace and Jonathan have a designated Brooding Fireplace. — Not super hyped about Heidi coming back but hey this ep was Worth It.

Anyway tldr I really liked it and wanted to spew semi-coherent positivity for once! About more characters than just my stupid fave!!! Wow!!! Good writing is SEXY and I LOVE IT!!!

#sh spoilers #seriously tho it was really good and coherent and there were real human emotions!!! and conversation!!!!!#welcome to my crispy mind

Shadowhunters Season 2, Episode 1 Review- This Guilty Blood

So Season 2 of Shadowhunters is finally out and I can get back to doing my reviews on each episode like I did with the first season. To be honest I wasn’t sure if this show would even get a second season but now that it has I’m expecting great things. I assume that the second season will be portraying the story arcs that happen in the second book, City of Ashes so I’m judging based off that material. So without further ado let’s get started. And like with last season these do contain spoilers so make sure you watch the episode first.

Things I liked:

- Valentine making pasta sauce will forever be iconic.

- One thing I’m kinda surprised I liked was the fact Magnus confronted Alec about the kiss. He basically said Alec didn’t do him but for himself and I kinda liked that. I don’t really know why but I think it’ll make their relationship more complex and that’s what’s kinda great about Malec in the books is they have a complex relationship so I’m glad they’re not just gonna be a cutesy gay couple cuz what I loved, and I think a lot of people loved, about Malec was that they were real and got into arguments and worked through tough times and seemed possible. So yeah, couples arguing for the win :P

- K izzy’s snake turning into a staff was awesome. And can I just say Emeraude Toubia in Izzy workout clothes is just goals. Actually Emeruade Toubia in general is goals and she’s my favourite part of the show.

- I know I’m focusing on this scene a lot but I just like Izzy kinda training Clary like a little I know there were ulterior motives in the training session but still.

- Matthew Daddario really portrays Alec’s personality and inability to express his feelings a lot of the time well and that makes me happy.

- That brief Clary and Simon moment where they’re talking about hangovers and laughing. I love that Katherine and Alberto really have such great friendship chemistry and make these two characters genuinely seem like best friends.

- “I’m a vampire I’m running slow for you.” - classic Simon

Things I didn’t like:

- Some of the camerawork was really weird. Like kinda shaky in some places i don’t know if that was intentional or not but it just seemed out of place.

- Who is Victor Aldertree? Is this a character I forgot? Wait isn’t he the crazy leader of the Clave who like locks Simon up in jail in City of Glass? What? Why would they make such a change like this? I mean the boy is fine but I don’t understand why they didn’t bring the inquisitor in because she was an awesome villainish character who could have been interesting particularly because of her connection to Jace.

- There is some cringy dialogue I’m sorry but there is like it doesn’t sound like something that would come out of a teenager’s mouth.

- I never really liked Jocelyn that much in the books to begin with so waking her up early from the comma is not something I liked. I don’t really get why they woke her up early because the best thing about the City of Ashes book is you get to see Clary come into her own and become stronger because she doesn’t really have anyone to protect her in the same ways as before. With Jocelyn around in the show I worry that development won’t get to happen.

- WHY. WHY DOES THIS SHOW LIKE TO JUMP AROUND WITH PLOT SO MUCH. WHY ARE THEY REVEALING ALL THE VALENTINE EXPERIMENTING STUFF NOW. THAT DOESN’T COME UP TIL LATE END OF BOOK 2 STRETCHING INTO LIKE BOOK 3 I THINK. IT IS UNNECESSARY AND CREATES AN UNNATURAL PROGRESSION FOR THE CHARACTERS AND THE STORY.

- ALSO I AM SORRY BUT ANY WOMAN WHO IS PREGNANT OR REALLY JUST ANYONE HAVE A NEEDLE INJECTED INTO THEIR STOMACH WOULD WAKE THE FUCK UP AND NOT JUST SLEEP THROUGH IT. AND SIDE NOTE, VALENTINE NEVER INJECTED JOCELYN HE GAVE HER DRINKS JUST SAYING.

- I’m sure I said this at some point during last season’s reviews but I’ll say it again. I do not like Valentine. Nothing personal against the actor but it’s just not a believable performance in my eyes and he doesn’t suit the personality or style of Valentine. One thing I liked about when Jonathan Rhys Meyers played Valentine in the movie was that I genuinely believed he could be Valentine. I don’t believe this guy is Valentine or has Valentine’s personality and that’s a problem for me.

- K apparently I hate moms in this series but let me just explain this: in City of Ashes Maryse had difficulty in believing Jace was innocent or believing he was working with Valentine and I hated that but she never seemed to completely stop loving him or thinking it was a mistake to take him in or tell Alec Jace wasn’t his brother. TV Maryse, WOW IS SHE A BITCH. HOW CAN YOU SAY SUCH TERRIBLE THINGS ABOUT JACE. HE WAS YOUR SON FOR 10 YEARS YOU CARED FOR HIM AND SUDDENLY HE’S TRASH?!?! LIKE WTF?!?! They’ve made the character a bitch and i recognize she was kinda bitchy in the beginning but WOW THEY BUMPED IT UP AND I AM NOT PLEASED. SHE’S LIKE NOT EVEN A MOM TO HER KIDS ANYMORE OR REALLY EVER.

- So for those who care to know I write these review points as I watch the show. Remember that Jocelyn note a couple notes back? Prediction came true within about 30 minutes. WOW JOCELYN I DO NOT LIKE YOU. YOU STOLE YOUR DAUGHTER’S PHONE AND STELE AND LOCKED HER IN A PIER. YOU ARE HOLDING HER BACK I GET YOU WANT TO PROTECT HER BUT YOU ARE NOT HELPING HER.

- This one isn’t really a dislike it just makes me laugh but like cuz its awkward. Why is it every time Magnus does magic it looks like he’s doing tai chi. If memory serves (which it may not it’s been a while since I read the books) book Magnus could like do stuff by snapping his fingers and waving not getting ready to do like crouching tiger hidden dragon stuff. It just looks kinda silly but like not in a way that’s intolerable.

- EWWW. VALENTINE TALKING TO JACE ABOUT INCEST FEELINGS EWWWW. THAT IS NEVER A CONVERSATION I NEEDED OR WANTED.

- OK WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS FUCKER OF AN ENDING, A) JACE DOESN’T BREAK THE ACCORDS. B) JOCELYN WOULD NEVER TRY TO KILL HER SON WITH A CROSSBOW LIKE WTF WAS THAT. C) VALENTINE NEVER GETS SHOT IN THE CHEST. WHAT IN ALL THAT IS HOLY WERE MY EYES FORCED TO WITNESS?!?!?!

Alrighty so clearly I wasn’t a fan of this first episode. On an objective scale though it isn’t bad it’s following the world it has set up and is naturally progressing in terms of that. If you’ve never read the books this would probably have been really enthralling. And I gotta say they do the secondary characters so much justice I really respect that. But as someone who has read and loves the books it breaks my heart to see such straying from the source material. I know it’s its own thing and isn’t trying to be the books but it’s making changes that don’t benefit the storytelling and that is really upsetting. City of Ashes is in my top 3 favourite Mortal Instrument Books it’s one of my favourites so I’m gonna be harder on this season (as you can see through my like/dislike ratio already). All in all, I gotta see where they take it before I make any judgments I mean they may do something really cool I’m just going to say that I’m weary right now. Hope you come back next week to see my opinions on episode 2. And next week I’ll make sure to set up like a link to this stuff so spoilers aren’t out in the open I just kinda rushed to make this week’s :P

Everyone wants to kill Clary omg

This council is biased

Anytime Raphael and Izzy are brought up I literally get sick

Raphael doesn't think they should kill Clary he just has to say that so he doesn't look weak

Omg Jace just needs to do this one thing Simon DO SOMETHING USEFUL FOR ONCE

SIMON IS SO FUCKING USELESS UGH WHY IS HE HERE

I feel bad for Maia but I also don't really care

That turning scene would've been cooler if her eyes were normal then the fan covered the light and the suddenly change to green

Of course she's wolfing out she's scared!

You guys aren't safe anywhere, cmon Simon!

Clary's obviously not gonna die but I really wouldn't care too much if she did

Fuck Fault In Our Stars that story was shit (I love John Green but no, hate that book)

They're trying to make me care but I really don't care about this relationship at all

I don't even really care about Simon or Clary

Oh god Malec

Magnus really didn't know so this isn't his fault

That trick was cool Madzie

JACE FOUND THEM

Haha you're fucked Valentine

Ooh Jace's lying is impeccable I really love his character now

ALEC NEEDS TO CALM THE FUCK DOWN I GET IT BUT FUCKING STOP

RAPHAEL "FEELS SOMETHING" FOR HER??? I AM LITERALLY SO UPSET BY THIS I AM CRYING I AM CRYING LITERAL TEARS SO ANGER IM SO FUCKING PISSED OFF

MAGNUS IS LITERALLY THE ONLY CHARACTER I LIKE RIGHT NOW

THIS IS NOT HIS FAULT ALEC STOP IT

MAGNUS STOPPING ALEC WHILST STILL BEING DISAPPOINTED IN RAPHAEL IS THE ONLY THING THATS MAKING THINGS OKAY

HE REALISES BOTH PARTIES ARE WRONG

THIS IS WHY I LOVE HIM

I FUCKING HATE IZZY RIGHT NOW SHES BEING FUCKING STUPID

Is she finally dying?

Ayyyeee Jace is here!

Madzie did it!

DO THEY WANT ME TO SHIP JIMON NOW?! UGH WTF

HAHA Madzie is smart she took Clary go Madzie!

I don't really care about Clary

Simon's freaking out again

"He's in Valentine's circle" circle sounded really British

Simon's finally FUCKING DOING SOMETHING THANK GOD

It's not very useful as someone can't answer if they're continuously being punched but it's a start

Aye Luke!

Wtf did Maia do

Don't leave Simon alone he can't do shit

ALDERTREE WTF ARE YOU DOING

OMG ALEC IS BEING SUCH A DOM I LOVE IT

GO ALEC YES IM SO HAPPY

FUCKING YES LETS GO BE IN CHARGE

YEAH GET FUCKED ALDERTREE

ALEC'S SMIRK SAVED THIS WHOLE EPISODE

Madzie is so strong omg

OMG HE HAS SIMON WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT

I only care about him like 20%. I care about him about as much as I cared about Jace when he was taken. This is such a mirror

WINTER FINALE NOOOO

Okay, Magnus and Alec kiss and makeup it's all okay

This was my least favourite episode. It was good in the fact that I FELT things (albeit not good things but bad is better than nothing). But bad in the fact that all the characters I used to love I now hate. But that Malec talk at the beginning was everything.
