Why, hello again everyone! Guess what!?! Oh yeah, Clockwork
Prince comes out in exactly a month!!!!! I'm so excited! For today, I
wanted to post one of my favorite quotes. This is the scene where Jem takes
Tessa to Blackfriars Bridge to show her his favorite spot in the city. I love this
scene since you get to see what Shadowhunters and Jem are like, and
of course the first blossoms of the Jem Tessa relationship.
"Almost the first thing I realized when I came here was that my
father never thought of himself as British, not the way an Englishman would.
Real Englishmen are British first, and gentlemen second. Whatever
else it is they might be-a doctor, a magistrate or landowner-comes third. For
Shadowhunters it's different. We are Nephilim, first and foremost, and
only after that do we make a nod to whatever country we might have been born
and bred in. And as for third, there is no third. We are only ever
Shadowhunters. When other Nephilim look at me, they see only a Shadowhunter.
Not like mundanes, who look at me and see a boy who is not entirely foreign but
not quite like them either."
"Half one thing and half another," Tessa said.
"Like me. But you know you're human."
Jem's expression softened. "As are you. In all the ways that
matter."
I'm not saying that I am team Jem, or team Will. Honestly I love
them both so much that I can't choose between them, they are both soooooooo
great in there own ways.
Now sadly I can't think of any video that you go with this. But
maybe for next time?
Yours truly,
The Queen of Spades
