whither thou goest, i will go

The Blackthorns+Emma Carstairs

There’s me- I’m going to be a detective.

There is Livvy, my twin, who can fence, and Drusilla, who loves everything scary, and Tavvy, who likes stories read to him.

There is Mark, who is part faerie. He’s an excellent cook.

There is Helen, who was exiled to guard the wards, but not because she did anything wrong.

And Emma, who isn’t strictly a Blackthorn, but is like our extra sister anyway.

And there is Jules. You might like him the best. He is the one who takes care of us all.

❝Sometimes a family is a hundred and fifty year old ex-silent brother, a shadowhunter-warlock hybrid, their baby, the angsty 15 year old they adopted, and the ghost of the the aforementioned warlock and silent brother’s dead husband.❞

klaus: in this world it’s either yeet or be yeeted

Emma Carstairs- (while discussing history) “So this guy, I can’ remember his name… doesn’t matter though because he’s dead.”

Ty Blackthorn- (after a twenty minute tangent away from relevant material) “Anyway! Don’t ask me about books, I want to talk about them.”

Kit Herondale- “If it’s got a penguin, it’s good content.” 

Diana Wrayburn- “I’m assuming you were all off on adventures this week and didn’t do the readings because you’re all looking at me like I’m speaking French.” *bonus points for the girl at the back who said “actually miss I can speak French”*

Julian Blackthorn- “I don’t need to have feelings about this particular subject to teach you about it, but I do have feelings about it so that’s fun. Not.”

Dru Blackthorn- “Do you guys need a break because I need a break. Everyone leave the class for 10 minutes and when you come back I might be ready to deal with you.”

Tavvy Blackthorn- “Why does nobody listen to me? I’m not invisible.” *bonus points for the person who replied “no we can see you, we just don’t listen.”*

Livvy Blackthorn- “Honestly they were just annoying, but we tolerate them because they were smart.”

Helen Blackthorn- “I wasn’t here for a couple years and this is my first semester back, anybody know what happened while I was gone?”

It’s not freaky but it’s been haunting me for like CENTURIES.
