“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.”

The Shadowhunters Chronicles: Catarina Loss.
“I learned early on in my life that I had a healing gift. It’s the kind of magic I do. So I work here, for crap pay, at this hospital, and I do what I can to heal mundanes who would scream if they knew what I really looked like. I could make a fortune selling my skills to Shadowhunters and dumb mundanes who think they know what magic is, but I don’t. I work here.”

as long as i could imagine you thriving and happy and well, the pain of missing you and mother and father was worth it.
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.
i probably shouldn’t enter into this narrative, but this take bothers me. for one, some of what you said in your post simply isn’t true. i’ve been in this fandom for almost ten years, and i’ve been around for every drama and snippet and bone that cassie has thrown the fandom about tlh.
back when she was first discussing it, before dark artifices, right after clockwork princess came out, everyone was obsessed with the next gen kids and wanted to know everything about them. cassie made a point to tell us that anna wasn’t straight, and she hinted about some other characters, but when asked directly about matthew she said she wanted the readers to “figure out the character’s sexuality with them” so if matthew was meant to be read as straight that literally makes no sense. she specifically told us that his sexuality wasn’t going to be discussed because it was a plot point in the story. so if he turns out to be straight, i think i have a right to be upset.
this has nothing to do with loving matthew as a character, at least not for me. i already love him. being gay or bi or pan doesn’t mean i’ll love the character more, or that i’m fetishizing him because i want that. i’m not straight, and i felt really close to matthew as a character when i first read nothing but shadows, and because he was clearly coded as not straight, i was excited.
i don’t think there’s anything wrong with wanting representation, and it’s not fair to go around telling lgbt people that their opinions about this are invalid, when we’ve literally been through this with so many fucking characters to have them all turn out to be straight after obvious baiting. teasing someone’s sexuality for years and then not coming through is queerbaiting. and matthew being straight isn’t better representation for masculinity than him being gay or bi. just because someone is gay doesn’t mean they aren’t masculine, and in my experience, an abundance of guys who have been heavily gay-coded have ended up being straight boys in literature, so that is a view i’ve seen plenty of and it’s not revolutionary. it’s annoying.
when the fandom was first reading nothing but shadows, tons of us were shipping james and matthew but that was because of JAMES being so thirsty, it had nothing to do with whether matthew was being coded gay, even though he clearly is. cassie knows about queer-coding. she’s not stupid. she did the same thing with james. the fact that he has this huge thing about himself he has to keep secret ???? it’s fucking glaring. and cassie has been in the slash game for decades. she knows exactly what she’s doing, she’s been praised for paving the way for lgbt main characters in ya fantasy and she knows firsthand how crazy shippers are and how much lgbt fans hate queerbaiting. so if matthew was intended to be straight, she would have just said that, not that she wanted us to figure out his sexuality with him.
♥ 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)
“He looked anxious, the shadows under his eyes more pronounced. Kit wanted to go across the table and put his arms around Ty the way he had the night before, on the roof. He felt intensely protective of the other boy, in a way that was strange and unnerving. He’d cared about people before, mostly his father, but he’d never wanted to protect them. He wanted to kill anyone who would try to hurt Ty. It was a very peculiar feeling.”
“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.
get to know me ☰ [1/5] favourite pairings: emma carstairs x julian blackthorn
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.

“And you won’t leave me?” “No.” Alec said. “No, we won’t ever leave you. You know that.” “Never. Lightwoods, all together.”
“So what am I?” Cecily said. Will exhaled, too desperate to check himself. “You are my weakness.”

For all Ty’s frightening intellect, for all his strangeness and indifference to other people, he was inseparable from his twin.
