TIDAppreciationWeek17 Day 6 | Favorite Scene(s): Sophie x Gideon + Scones (Clockwork Princess Ch. 1, 4, 10)
“And I am sure the scones are very good,” he added hastily. “I just don’t like scones. I never have liked scones. It’s not your scones.”
“Do please stop saying the word ‘scone,’ Mr. Lightwood.”

We have NO INDICATION of Matthew Fairchild’s sexuality.
Matthew Fairchild literally has no confirmed sexuality. Like. Literally none. And people are already saying they’ll not read TLH if he isn’t gay??? What the fuck? I love queer rep but…
1. What if James or Thomas or Jesse turns out to be straight, will you be mad then? Is the only reason you are targeting Matthew because he fits certain stereotypes?? This is problematic in so many ways. You’re literally assuming that a guy is sexually attracted to men based off the TOTALLY UNRELATED facts that he likes Oscar Wilde, poetry, and doing his hair. (If Matthew is straight, this is actually a super cool view of masculinity we don’t see much in literature.)
2. Matthew Fairchild is a super awesome character. He is a caretaker to his father, a kind parabatai, and he is super extra. 100% funny and full of great hijinks, but 100% full of heart and soul too. He is a good, well fleshed out character, even not having a simgle book published with him as a major character yet, and his sexuality should in NO WAY IMPACT the way you feel about him as a character or a person*
3. Cassie hasnt even hinted that he is queer. Sure, the green carnations may hint at something, but really? Theyre a symbol of the aesthetic movement and should just be taken as such. YOU HAVE CREATED THE HYPE FOR MATTHEW’S QUEERNESS. CASSIE HAS NOT.
I agree that he is coded queer and that he might be! But he also might be straight. And we can’t complain/say Cassie is queerbaiting because she really isn’t. And we know we are blessed to have queer representation.
* If you like him more if he’s gay, then you need to reevaluate whether you’re fetishing mlm or not (hint: you probably are.) If you like him more if he’s straight, congrats! You’re a raging homophobe.
Tl;dr Matthew is one of the best characters in TSC regardless of h is sexuality. It does not matter and is not confirmed.

♥ Femslash February: Aline Penhallow & Helen Blackthorn
She remembered the first love note Aline had ever written her. The curves of your lips rewrite history. The world is changed because you are made of ivory and gold. Later, she’d found out it was an Oscar Wilde quote, and had said to Aline, smiling, You’ve got a lot of nerve. Aline had looked back at her steadily. “I know. I do.”

it was her, the strange human girl he’d once seen in the unseelie weapons room. (requested by anonymous)

“My parabatai, she thought, looking at Jules, standing with his back straight and his head back, the only seventeen-year-old boy in the world who could make the King of the Dark Court doubt himself.” — Lord of Shadows, @cassandraclare

When you love someone, they become a part of who you are. They’re in e v e r y t h i n g you do. They’re in the air you breathe and the water you drink and the blood in your veins. Their touch stays on your skin and their voice stays in your ears and their thoughts stay in your mind. You know their dreams because their nightmares pierce your heart and their good dreams are your dreams too. And you don’t think they’re perfect, but you know their flaws, the deep-down truth of them, and the shadows of all their secrets, and they don’t frighten you away; in fact you love them more for it, because you don’t want perfect. You want them.

She leaned forward and caught at his hand, pressing it between her own. The touch was like white fire through his veins. He could not feel her skin, only the cloth of the gloves, and yet it didn’t matter. You kindled me, heap of ashes that I am, into fire. He had wondered once why love was always phrased in terms of burning. The conflagration in his own veins, now, gave the answer.
