i don't exactly see james and matthew as opposites, but instead i love how they complement each other and think that's underrated. james is introverted and matthew is very extroverted. james is midnight and matthew is sunlight. james is elegant darkness and matthew is golden effervescence. james is the ideal gentleman and matthew is the coy bohemian. james has the Mask while matthew has the Smile. james is latin and ancient epics while matthew is french and comedic plays. james is london and matthew is paris.

matthew fairchild × alastair carstairs
"You are never going to be able to drink casually. Alcohol will always mean something to you that it does not mean to other people. Getting rid of this stuff will make it easier. Why not have it be easier?"
Matthew hesitated a moment, and Thomas knew him well enough to read the look in his eyes: Because I do not deserve to have it be easy, because the suffering is part of the punishment.
The Last Hours, Chain Of Thorns;

Conversation
Chain of Thorns, page 178:
Alastair: "Your devotion to your family is admirable. I'm sure it is unrelated to your having just run off to Paris with your husband's parabatai.
Cordelia: "I had my reasons Alastair."
Alastair: "I'm sure you did. I wish you'd tell me what they were. Are you in love with Matthew?"
Cordelia: "I don't know."
Alastair: "Are you in love with James, then?"
Cordelia: "Well, we are married."
Alastair: "That's not really an answer. I don't really like James, but on the other hand, I also don't like Matthew very much. So you see, I am torn."
Cordelia: "Well, this must be very difficult for you. I cannot imagine how you will find it within yourself to go on."

In another world where Matthew isn’t in love with Cordelia, Matthew is rooting for James and Cordelia and he’s her confidante whenever she wants to talk about her feelings for james and she’s talking like a thirteen year old and Matthew is the best listener to her hardcore crushing. And Matthew is like a very vexed exhausted friend. Like
Cordelia: oh his eyes. It’s so easy to get lost in those beautiful eyes
Matthew: I know. Like flames borne from molten gold. Like if fire is only one colour and it’s James’s eyes
Cordelia: YES! Exactly. and his hair. I can spend hours writing songs about it. Dark, soft like I might come undone if I touch it
Matthew: black ink across a canvas, I know
Cordelia: and do you ever see the smooth column of his throat? its like flawless marble and sometimes it’s such an effort to not stare at it when I’m looking up at him
Matthew: well then thank goodness I’m taller than him
Cordelia: and raziel, his shoulders. Like wings spreading out, so much so that I have to keep myself from touching them just to see if they would actually feel like wings
Matthew: that sounds hard. Maybe that’s all I need to hear cor—
Cordelia: and his arms. I have to tear my eyes away from them every time I look at them. Every. Single. Time.
Matthew: all right, this is a little too much info—
Cordelia: and his lips. I wonder if they would feel as soft a they loo—
Matthew: I’M LEAVING

No one can tell me that when Matthew as well as James & Cordelia are on their big voyages respectively, they won’t meet up someplace in the world at least once. Like maybe not in Paris and not immediately but you really think they could bear to be separated for that long?

Dearest James Herondale, are you absolutely sure your father has never ever been angry with his parabatai in his life? Are you super sure? Are you doubtless? Are you certain? By chance, have you, uh, tried asking your mother? Just by chance?

Quote
"I know people hurt one another. I know relationships are complicated. Believe me. But it's been my experience that - well when everyone loves one another enough, there will always be a way for things to come out alright in the end."
-Tessa Herondale to Cordelia, Chain of Thorns page 420
