there’s no doubt that isabelle’s always admired jocelyn, the woman’s strength and valor making her stand out against most other shadowhunters. she’s not ruthless, by any means, not unless she needs to be apparently, but there’s something to be admired about the quiet strength she possesses, too. not many people would be able to go through what she did, turning their back on everything, only with their wits and survival instincts to keep them safe. and running from someone like valentine? not many would have the courage to leave him in the first place.

the corner of her lip quirks in a half smirk, gaze turning towards the older woman. “then i guess that really does just prove men are all the same; none of them can imagine they’re not the center of a woman’s universe.”

how am i doing with my muse(s)? be honest

Maryse huffs a laugh, and despite how melancholy she feels, a slight smile curves her lips. Jocelyn is right – no matter how... sad it makes her that they’ve lost so much time, they have each other now. They simply took the long way around. She squeezes Jocelyn’s hand, and lifts it to press her lips against the woman’s knuckles. ‘Maybe you’re right’, she murmurs, ‘though... I think if I’d had an inkling of my feelings back then... things would’ve been very different’. 

              Elaine was confused , and even then that was an understatement to say the least. There was a lot going on and it seems it has been ever since Clary’s birthday - but they all had to be unrelated right? “Joceyln? Seriously, what is going?” She can stay calm, being a lawyer does that. Being able to remain calm in an evolving situation. Worked well with her kids too. “Fine, I’ll stay here, but don’t think you can get away without an explanation.”
