Happy Mundane Monday #121
He curled his fingers around her hand, where it lay on his arm. His own scorched her skin, hot as fire. And then he turned her, and drew her toward him. They stood face to face, chest to chest. His breath stirred her hair. She felt the fever rising off him like mist off the Thames; sensed the pounding of the blood through his skin, saw with a strange clarity the pulse at his neck, the light on...
Happy Mundane Monday #120
Happy Mundane Monday!! I LOVE this picture of Tessa and Will. I found this image onCassie’s tumblr. You can also visit the artist’s page on Deviantart.
This is just an excerpt taken from one of my favorite scenes in Clockwork Prince….
She stood as if mesmerized as he gathered her hair in his hands, draping it over one of her shoulders, winding her curls between his fingers,...

Marry me today.
CP answers . . . and spoilers!
cassandraclare:
Okay, there’s a bunch of asks about the Tessa/Will/Jem triangle under the cut. I’m going to try to answer them here, and then I’m taking a break from answering asks about their relationship/s because I think I’ve exhaustively covered it, and I worry I am preventing the moving on. I am going to go buy a giant crystal instead so we can all sit beneath its healing beams.

So, rather than look at these unidentified snippets in a horrible, heart-wrenching, cassie why would you do this to us, sort of way, I decided to look at them COMPLETELY and ENTIRELY positively.
So here, let me shove some Malec down you’re throats because I’m...

Oh Jace and Clary, how I’ve missed you…..
His hands lay flat on either side of him, his arms at his sides. He seemed barely to be breathing; she wasn’t sure she was breathing herself. She slid her own hand across the bedsheet, just far enough that their fingers touched-so lightly that she would have probably hardly been aware of it had she been touching...

So Tessa won her match against Katniss.
I am, honestly, shocked. I really didn’t think that would happen. I thought Clary had a shot since she won the nomination round but not her quieter sister-in-fiction. So thank you for voting.
I will be quietly stunned for awhile, but in the meantime, a…
City of Lost Souls Cover- Tell Us What you Think
HOLY AWESOME COVER! I know that makes no sense, but this cover is just WOW! I was hoping Magnus would have least been featured, but this beats Magnus (sorry Magnus I do love you, but Jace and Clary own this cover. I know you understand).
