Ty wears more useful runes to help with his training as a centurion, and some investigations and missions, whereas Kit uses more practical ones. I can imagine him using them for everyday things or to learn the basics of being a shadowhunter.

While in the snips from TWP, Ty we see he has fewer runes (I suppose the love one was added because it was for Pride, because it's used in weddings), and more basic and symbolic ones. For example, the insight helps the wearer better understand situations. It contrasts a lot with Kit, who uses runes for combat and some useful for missions: mnemosyne (for memory), protected and talent.

On the last art, Kit has the protected rune on his wrist. It's used to protect the mind against magical intrusions, like encantos. It's not difficult to imagine it may have something to do with the fey. And on his chest he has the talent rune, which is used as a "wish for greatness". In QOAAD, Ty drew it to Kit to help with his persuasive skills, but instead helped him unlock his magic. So I find it interesting that Kit uses it in SOBH and also in TWP (Moreover, they're different versions. It's strange because, as far as I know, there's no difference between them). What stands out to me is that Ty wears the insight rune not once, but twice, and in the same place.

But I think it may also be metaphorical, and more to do with their dynamic than the story. Ty is making an effort to understand Kit, while Kit is trying to be brave, but also protect himself, while he is hunted by his own memories.

he misses his summer not-even-situationship, ok?

I have to give full credit for the fact that i'm posting so much right now to the spring holidays i currently have! And even though I should technically be working on my Matura Project (crying), i'm happy about my creative drive right now! The Paris trip with my girls definitely helped give me an adrenaline and dopamine push!

Some thoughts i had while doing this post:

— Kit & Ty being completely and stupidly in love of course

— Ash & Kit bickering constantly while everyone else can clearly see that they are besties (my parabatai headcanon on them is very strong guys)

— so. many. pets. but for real, i don't know why shadowhunters don't have more pets, is there any canon explanation that i missed???
