#lililth

I ain't used tumblr in years, but I'm hoping to get used to it again!

3.07 Follow Up - Salt & Irony

My immediate reaction can be found HERE 

So we got two conversations at the institute that are overloaded with information - everyone finally sharing what the know with everyone else so we can finally start getting shit done #Blessed - However, there were a few weird cuts to the dialogue that makes me think those scenes were longer or edited down #justsaying #giveusextenedscenes

I wanted to see Alec learn about Jace’s condition and instead we seem to pick up halfway into the conversation about it… Also, Magnus already identified Lilith so… no time has passed since the end of last episode but like, some time has. Does this show know how time works???

Clary tells Alec that she understands if he has to send her to the guard and I was so proud of my little firecracker for taking responsibility for herself… Alec’s look when Simon tried to intervene was gold - like “bitch is your name Alec? Are you head of this institute? No? Then step back sunny vamp boy.”

Some of the dialogue this season is really clunky and yes Magnus, I’m looking at you on this one. #dramaticwarlock #15thecenturyspeachpatturns #what?

Allicate is pretty and cool and I want a fancy Rune door to my fancy Rune office but like if you blink you miss it #needsmoreAllicate …. And I’m gonna miss Imogene, they were finally making her likable and now she’s dead dead dead

The Maia/Jordan arc could have been done with less scenes/time #justsaying - it felt off in this high paced episode. Every time they came on screen the momentum stalled - however, Maia looks flawless as always, Jordan looks like he needs a haircut and an attitude adjustment. #fightmeweredick

Thankfully, Luke did not know about Jordan Kyle’s connection to Maia - that would have been awkward. (probably like his little talk with Ollie)

The souls possessed by Lilith are still human and therefore Simon’s mark causes them to disintegrate upon attacking him #oops #safetyshieldforehead #TheBodyguard

Clary’s getting pretty comfortable with that protal rune and Magnus’ face when the cage pops up in his living room is so like “can’t a warlock have a drink in peace” #givemagnusabreak

I don’t think anyone is talking about the best moment of the episode, when the new Counsel of the Clave referred to Alec, Izzy and Clary as The Crown Jewels of the New York Institute - also,  #Kudos to the person who came up with the term: The Malachi Configuration

 Our Shadow Side (x)

Aries: Generally straight-forward about things including her sexuality but can be too aggressive when people working beneath her do not follow her orders. Puts her priorities first, making sure not to let anyone get ahead of her.

Taurus: Has the tendency to be secretive about money or possessions. She may like control and for other people to depend on her financially. Desire for food can turn into glutton and desire for money can turn into greed.

Gemini: This person can have a God complex, believing everything she says is important and that her advice is always wanted. She can hide her real self and become whoever she has to be in the moment. 

Cancer: She expects attention and for people to live up to her expectations in personal relationships. If needs or wants aren’t met she will play the role of the martyr, appearing weak and unable to care for herself. This manipulation can also come simply from the desire of wanting other people to feel miserable.

Leo: She is vain and prideful, she wants to be admired and is envious of people with talent. Can abuse power and use sex with malicious intent. Unforgiving.

Virgo: She can be very cold, aloof, and vindictive. She often likes to play the role of a white, fragile and innocent virgin and tends to over-indulge in critical self-analysis. She may manipulate people with her reputation and guilt them with a sense of responsibility.

Libra: She has an elitist attitude and considers her own feelings as being very important. She is dependent on others and struggles to have any opinions of her own. Can be clingy, jealous or manipulative.

Scorpio: Here she is at home. She is powerfully sexual, hypnotic, seductive and wise but can also be bitter, vengeful or obsessed. She has an unconscious tendency to manipulate others just for her own amusement. She can also act as a cunning manipulator.

Sagittarius: She can hide her true self underneath a nice facade. She doesn’t believe she can make mistakes and can be self-righteousness and prejudice. She can abuse power and hurt those who oppose her authority.

Capricorn: She believes that nothing is beyond her capabilities and that she does not need anyone’s help or support. She feels the need to test her strong character and her power. Sometimes success in her career is connected to sex, either she gets a job “overnight”, or there is also the possibility of various affairs, public scandals.

Aquarius: She is irresponsible, remote, and refuses to listen to others. She is in a constant search for something new, unusual, stirring and has a strong need to smash everything and to put everything upside down. She deliberately ignores the principles of morality and betrays her friends. Likes to play the role of the nonconformist.

I read that as shout at your bubble tea but DON’T WORRY FRIEND ONE DAY I’M GONNA COME DOWN THERE EVEN IF IT’S IN LIKE HALF A DECADE OR SOMETHING ONE DAY
