It’s hilarious to me how similar Kit and Jace are supposed to look bc of familial resemblance
Like damn the father of Tobias and Grandpa Herondale (Edmund’s father) must have had the strongest genes in history.
Like thise genes were so strong they stayed dominant for seven generations?!!
The Whitelaws and the Montclaires never had a chance with Jace
Though I think it would be so funny if some shadowhunter meeting Jace was like:
Sh: my, you look just like—
Jace: Stephen Herondale, I know
Sh: no not him, like—
Jace: James Herondale?
Sh: no no, you look just like my great aunt Ariana Whitelaw
Jace: who??
I just want Jace to find out more about his mother and grandmothers side of the family (he could prob get an ancestral home in france from it lol)
I just find it hilarious how Jace is so excited to have someone he is blood related to
When Jace — is more closely related to Emma, The Blackthorns, and the Lightwoods than Kit
And Kit — is more closely related to Kieran and Ash than to Jace 😭

a lot of people have theorized for "the last shadowhunter" and all those other titles that the shadow world kinda goes away,, demons are sealed off from the world and so shadowhunters aren't needed anymore, but if you ask me, I feel like that ending is kind of redundant. like, ending everything. because there's so much history, and so many characters are who they are because they are shadowhunters, with what comes with the experiences and shit, so if you were to just drop kick the demons away, they wouldn't know what to do 💀 not to mention the other downworlders,, and the faeries?? fuckin shit. there's so much history Cassie has implemented and it's built *on* the shadow world, Jess's/Wessas story, Clary's, Magnus', literally everyone — so for her to potentially take that all away seems so backwards to me (this is just a theory I've seen a bunch of people say!! nothing confirmed, at all) unless it's like, end all this, or else *this* will happen, and like, ok, plausible ending, but other than that, it just... doesn't seem fitting 😭
I SO agree with you. I remember this theory, it was quite popular in our fandom for a while. But you know that Cassie LOVES ending things unpredictably, so let's discuss it🌝
Tumblr media
First of all, like YEAH OKAY the "LAST SHADOWHUNTER" title is... slightly terrifying. As if it's a confirmation of our "Lucifer dies, demons disappear, Shadowhunters live as normal people" theory. And it almost sounds fine yeah? Shadowhunters' life was all about war, they never had a chance to experience other aspects of this life. Living as a human, not a bad ending huh?🤗
BUT NO NO NO, IT'S LIKE A FUCKING HELL, THE WORST CASE POSSIBLE, IF IT HAPPENS 70% OF NEPHILIM POPULATION WILL KILL THEMSELVES NO JOKE🙅🏼‍♀️
1) Yeah, we have Jem's example of "normal human life", but this man has been living in a cave for decades, any life is better than this, it doesn't count.
2) We have another example of "Retirement": Edmund Herondale. And that man drank himself to the point where his family had nowhere to live. Great example of "if you were raised to do a certain thing, if doing this thing has become not only your whole life but also your whole personality personality, then no love will be enough for you to heal when this thing is gone."💁🏼‍♀️
3) When Julian was thinking about leaving Shadowhunters with Emma so they can be together he immediately thought that it would kill her. No matter how great their love was, taking this life away from Emma would only mean endless suffering and years of therapy.
4) For all Shadowhunters "mark stripping" is LITERALLY THE WORST PUNISHMENT🤌🏻 It doesn't matter that the process is painful. To stop being a shadowhunter means stop being yourself. They all occasionally think about "what would it be like to live a normal life" but never further than that. Even imagining living like a mundane is pretty hard. Being Nephilim means being a pride of the angel himself, being the chosen one since birth. Damn it, they even built a whole religion around all of this.
For them fighting demons is not only about wounds, wars and losing loved ones. It's also a great adventure, a feeling that you're doing sth good, that you're important, that you're a part of the greatest community.
Imagine losing it all so you can go to Walmart whenever you want.

anyone versed in shadowhunters lore who knows what an australian ibis is, what do you think would be the Herondale Reaction To It? like they're just as, if not more, greedy and annoying and adorably flockish and aggressive for food than ducks. i have also had them referred to as 'majestic herons' and like. heron. herondale. this is really important for me to figure out guys

Not spoilers from chot dint worry
A great plothole in all tlh for me is how not a single adult realised early on Matthew alcoholism, when Edmund was literally a drunk and lost everything because of it
YES! I have thought about Edmund's alcoholism and its impact on Cecily nonstop since I re-read CP2 during the peak of the pandemic.
As many of my followers are aware, I have a headcanon that I faithfully utilize in all my works that Gabriel intentionally does not drink because of Edmund and how it affected Cecily. Cecily has one of the most depressing childhoods of literally any TSC character and it's just so swept under the rug.
Sure, Will may not have seen Edmund's alcoholism first-hand, but he should have seen how it impacted his literal sister.
Cecily should have been able to recognize the smell and traits immediately and would have confided in Gabriel about her concerns.
Charlotte was always an attentive Institute Head and raised literally a handful of heathens when she was only 23 and we're supposed to believe that she had no idea what either of her sons were ever up to? That she was an absent mother?
Henry has always been absentminded but we know for a fact that he's very attentive to his family when he senses something wrong. He always knew when Charlotte was upset or angry without her having to say it. And we're meant to believe Henry didn't notice anything in his son? Or that he didn't smell the alcohol when the man works with it because of his science?
Or even Sophie. Sophie grew up Mundane for, what, 20-21 years of her life and spent a good number of those years as a maid? I'm positive she's seen her share of alcoholics.
And we're meant to believe that NONE of them ever considered that Matthew had a serious problem and they needed to intervene? It's just so hard to believe and it's a plot hole that really contradicts everything the TID characters experienced in their own lives.

Herondale Family
The Herondale family is an old Shadowhunter family. They have lived in a variety of places; notably in Wales, Yorkshire, London, Idris, and New York. The men of the family are known to be born with star shaped marks on their shoulders, originating from when Will Herondale's shoulder came into contact with the angel Ithuriel in the late 1870s. The symbol of the family is the heron. Their ring, in particular, has a pattern of the birds in flight. The name Herondale comes from the words "Heron" and "Dale". "Heron" is a bird and "dale" means broad one.

Herondales and their complex relationship with birds:
Edmund: “I shall never eat duck again. I cannot believe I used to like duck. The duck betrayed me.”
Will: “Bloodthirsty little beasts. Never trust a duck.”
James: “This is bad enough without mentioning ducks,” said James. He had never fancied ducks since one had bitten him in Hyde Park as a small child.
Stephen: “You sure there’s not some kind of rune to keep these foul beasts away?” Stephen Herondale said as a thunderous flutter of wings descended. He ducked, whacked blindly at his feathered foe.
Jace: “Ducks?” she said again. A smile tugged the edge of his mouth. “I hate ducks. Don’t know why. I just always have.”
Kit: Since then chickens seem to be avoiding Kit, so maybe it will work on demons too? (Though can you really tell when a chicken is avoiding someone as opposed to just being a chicken?)

I am not sure if it's fair to consider Rosemary and Stephen as "minor", but they appear only a few times so...

can I ask you for the headcanons you have on edmun herondale?
Edmund herondale?!?! Anon, this is the most original ask I've ever gotten and I absolutely love it! I've have been fascinated (strangely enough) by Edmund in the past, so you've come to the right place! Here you go:
Edmund was practically raised by the Fairchilds. This means that he was there when Charlotte was born and, due to his fondness for children, he and Charlotte were practically inseparable! When Edmund and Linette go to the institute to retrieve Will, he is shocked when a girl, who looked so much like Granville Fairchild, opened the door. After a couple of seconds, he recognized her as Charlotte and was in complete shock. He'd always wanted to know what had become of Little Lottie. Charlotte, of course, didn't recognize him, nor did she had any memories of Edmund. When it was obvious that Will wouldn't come back with them, Edmund was beyond devastated, but he felt a tiny bit better knowing that his only son was in good hands
He didn't have many friends growing up, despite being a ladies' man
His favorite child had always been Cecily (even though he would never admit it). She reminded him so much of Linette with her braveness though, unlike Ella (who also portrayed this trait) she was also quite quiet and observant, something she inherited from his dear mother. He cherished the reminder he had of her through his youngest daughter.
Though none of his children possess his coloring, their facial features make it undeniable that they're his.
The first time he held each of his children, he cried :,)
After Cecily left, Edmund never gambled again.
Every year, he and Linette walk to the sea and throw grains of rice into the ocean in honor of Ella's birthday
For years, he felt guilty for Ella's death (it was his Pyxis box, after all) and for Will running away. I feel like he gambled because he wanted to feel like he could succeed in something, which makes me quite sad lol i have to stop upsetting myself
He still trained after getting his marks stripped because he absolutely loved being a shadowhunter (though, he loved Linette even more)
He loved his parents more than anything (hence why he named Will after his father). When they died, a little piece of him broke that come never be recovered
Once he was able to overcome his gambling addiction, he and Linette happily grew old together, enjoying every visit they got from their children (both biological and in-laws) and grandchildren.
Yall why is Edmund's life so freakin' sad holy crap, was all of that suffering freakin' NECESSARY?!?

“Your father must have loved your mother very much, to give up being a Shadowhunter for her.”
Will winced almost imperceptibly, but his tone was surprisingly calm as he said, “He did. I asked him once if he was ever sorry, but he said he never was. He said there are thousands of Shadowhunters, but great love comes once in a lifetime if one is lucky, and one would be a fool to let it go.”
