I don’t think we talk enough about how Tessa Gray was imprisoned and tortured, forced to use her powers for evil. I mean, she lost the only parental figure she’d ever known, was forced to travel across an ocean by herself, only to be betrayed by her brother, who sold her off to a madman. Even before she lost her husband and children and endured bigotry from the Clave (which is what we talk about the most), she had been through so much.

“Tess, Tess, Tessa. Was there ever a more beautiful sound than your name? To speak it aloud makes my heart ring like a bell. Strange to imagine that, isn’t it – a heart ringing – but when you touch me that is what it is like: as if my heart is ringing in my chest and the sound shivers down my veins and splinters my bones with joy. Why have I written these words in this book? Because of you. You taught me to love this book where I had scorned it. When I read it for the second time, with an open mind and heart, I felt the most complete despair and envy of Sydney Carton. Yes, Sydney, for even if he had no hope that the woman he loved would love him, at least he could tell her of his love. At least he could do something to prove his passion, even if that thing was to die. I would have chosen death for a chance to tell you the truth, Tessa, if I could have been assured that death would be my own. And that is why I envied Sydney, for he was free. And now at last I am free, and I can finally tell you, without fear of danger to you, all that I feel in my heart. You are not the last dream of my soul. You are the first dream, the only dream I ever was unable to stop myself from dreaming. You are the first dream of my soul, and from that dream I hope will come all other dreams, a lifetime’s worth. With hope at least, Will Herondale"

Does anyone know of a fanfic where it's modern day and somehow Will Herondale gets brought back to life and ends up in a poly relationship with Tessa Gray and Jem Carstairs with a happy ending? Because I really want to read a fic like that. Or even one set in the time period of The Infernal Devices where the three of them end up in a poly relationship? I need good fanfics to read for this universe😭 recommendations are 100% welcome

Belial originally wanted to take possession of Tessa, but because of the clockwork angel, he was unable to do so. After Elizabeth and her husband died, why didn't he and Mortmain kill Harriet? Why didn't the two of them work together and raise Tessa so that Belial could take possession of her and thus destroy the shadowhunters? That would have been much easier and would have saved them a lot of drama and stress.

“Ah,” said a voice from the doorway, “having your annual ‘everyone thinks Will is a lunatic’ meeting, are you? “It’s biannual,” said Jem. “And no, this is not that meeting.”

Will was so jealous that Jem would marry Tessa and at the same time he was jealous that Tessa would marry Jem.
Tessa was so jealous that Will went to Jem's bedside.
Jem was never jealous. If he could have, he would have married them both right away.

I hope Kit just imagined it when Tessa stepped in front of Mina as if to protect her from Kit holding a gun, cause if not, I'm going to be furious. Like, he's already got a complex that everyone around him is in danger because of who he is, he does not need this extra layer right now.

Tessa X Will: passion and fire, fireworks, libraries, stolen kisses in hidden corridors, gasoline, spilled ink, letters and poems, desperation, driving over the speed limit, tangled messy hair, so much longing and yearning that it is physically painful.
Tessa X Jem: slowburn, slow exhale after long kisses, deep understanding and compassion, feather light touches, melancholy music, adoration, intertwined fingers, head on a shoulder, smiles that can light up a room, long walks, tight embraces that feel like home.
Jem X Will: comfortable silence, lingering looks, playful smiles, loud laughter, shenanigans, clasped hands, finishing each other’s sentences, windblown hair, sparking eyes, always looking for the other first in a crowded room, fighting till last breath, bruised knuckles, love so pure that it is too good for the world.

You know what’s a real travesty? The fact that the copy of A Tale of Two Cities Will bought Tessa is lost forever.
