Another World

Tatiana: I’m just going to take a happy meal.

Matthew: Great, would you like the car or the Barbie with that?

Tatiana: My kid is a boy.

Matthew: I can see that. So, the Barbie or the car?

Tatiana: I want a boy toy, please.

Matthew: I mean, don’t we all?

Tatiana:

“I want them to think ‘Alec Lightwood loved one man so much he changed the world for him.’ […]  ‘You know you’ve already changed the world for me’“

Finally I managed to draw Malec’s wedding from QOAAD by @cassandraclare

(via https://open.spotify.com/playlist/159FK776aTadVuBCgJU9W0?si=nyt1tFbKQMaw4cSoykWwhA)

Playlist for Chain of Gold! Took a little while because I wanted to put it where you could listen if you felt like it. What songs remind me of what is below, though often I just listen to whatever gives me a certain mood or feeling at the time — sadness, energy, anger, etc.

Earth Not Above — HAELOS

Could be about quite a few characters that need forgiveness! Alastair, Matthew, even Grace.

A sun from the waste land calling Bringing us back home Shadows will guide us Show us what’s true

Palace — Matthew and the Atlas

See the demon in the night The shape of it covers the light Feathers touch upon the skin When no one else would let you in.

Broken — lovelytheband

Definitely makes me think of Matthew, even Thomas…the Blackthorns…

Life is not a love song that we like We’re all broken pieces floating by Life is not a love song, we can try To fix our broken pieces one at a time

Burn the House Down — AJR

Clearly about the chapter “Burn”

Walking with a Ghost — Tegan and Sarah

Lucie and Jesse.

My Body is a Cage — Arcade Fire

Reminds me of James, trapped in a situation where he doesn’t feel what he thinks he feels.

My body is a cage that keeps me From dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key

Lord Huron — She Lit A Fire

Makes me think of Cordelia. James and her iconic dance!

I’ve been through the desert and I’ve been across the sea I’ve been walking through the mountains and wandered through the trees for herI have been trying to find her want to give what I got She lit a fire, but now she’s in my every thought

Hole: Awful.

Matthew.

Swing low, cherry cherry Yeah, it’s awful He’s drunk, he tastes like candy He’s so beautiful.

Untouchable Face: Ani diFranco

A fantastic song about the brutality of unrequited love; (and Ani’s song 32 Flavors makes me think of Anna.) Definitely Cordelia.

Tell you the truth I prefer the worst of you Too bad you had to have a better half She’s not really my type But I think you two are forever And I hate to say it, but you’re perfect together

So fuck you

And your untouchable face Fuck you For existing in the first place.

Total Disaster: Rhett Miller

Clearly about Alastair, and possibly Matthew…

If you choose to stay by my side You got to get that I got flaws Feel free to leave anytime Lord knows I will give you cause

Heads Gonna Roll, Jenny Lewis

The Merry Thieves!

Even though we’re just friends I think of us as bookends And I’m gonna love you ‘til I die

Daniel, Bat for Lashes

Anna and Ariadne.

But in a goodbye bed With my arms around your neck Into our love the tears crept Just catch in the eye of the storm.

High Enough, K Flay

Matthew…

Don’t try to give me cold water I don’t wanna sober up All I see are tomorrows Oh, the stars were made for us.

Contagious, Night Riots

I’m still not really sure whether it was a good or bad time to release a book about quarantine.

Also I think the song, “World Spins Maddly On– The Weepies” would fit well. https://youtu.be/ZWGfzu6yE2Q

Also: “Without you” from RENT

https://youtu.be/yg7Ctl1ftTk

thank you so much!! 💕 here are Alec and Max-Michael, hope you like them!!

Matthew: Insane

Christopher: It doesn’t make any sense

Thomas, sighing: So we’re doing it?

Ash for Cassandra Clare! Was an absolute pleasure :) 

Emma: Force everyone to stand.

Cristina: Just bring three more chairs.

Ty: The most important ones can sit down.
