    Summary

    "He had never connected with anything more, he thought, than [Wilde's] descriptions of art. The spirit that an artist brought to his work was personal; it was an expression of the self. Matthew thought of his colorful waistcoats, of his rings and hats. An expression of the self, indeed."
    Or, the 5 times Matthew credits Oscar Wilde for his personal growth (and the 1 time he learns to credit himself).

    Summary

    In the wake of Cordelia's death, James is left reeling with grief. There are a hundred unsaid things that he can never tell her now, and the most important among them is that he loves her, despite what Grace's accursed bracelet did to his mind.

    But soon he discovers evidence that she may not be dead. With the Clave still bickering over a search party, and his friends risking themselves to protect the world from Belial, James does the only thing he can think to do: he goes to search for Cordelia alone.

    Trigger warnings: depictions of starvation, torture, demonic themes, depression, & passive suicidality are all dealt with in this story. Please take care of yourself and avoid reading this if any of those are dangerous triggers for you!

    Summary

    “Do you really think I could ever hate you?” she asked him in a sad tone.

    “Anyone with a bit of sense would do that.”

    “Well, then, call me a fool” she said.

    Chain of Iron Chapter 20, where Matthew and Lucie are in the carriage together and basically miss a great opportunity to tell each other what's going on in their lives. I thought I should fix that.

    Summary

    What if Cordelia hadn't run away when she saw Grace and James embrace at the end of Chain of Iron? What if she stuck around and heard James and Grace's conversation unfold?

    This is a rewrite of the end of the book scene with Grace and James where Cordelia stays and James and her actually communicate for once.

    Summary

    When they return home, her father will still be dead, she will still be married to James, and her fealty to Lilith won't be forgotten. Yet in the dim light of Maxim's with Matthew's contagious smile making it impossible to not return it with one of her own, everything felt much farther away than just across the Channel.

     

    Matthew, Cordelia, and Paris.

    Summary

    Cordelia Carstairs-Herondale can't help but feel like her entire world has been turned upside down.

    Her family, weren't quite the ideal family she had once thought they were, her father sullen, her brother distant and her mother... well she was still the same sadly. And then there was James, the love of her life and her new husband. Which sounded a lot simpler than saying the love of her life, her fake husband and the reason she was losing the will to live these days.

    Summary

    After a few years of blissful marriage, Will and Tessa are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child when a new evil arrives in London and begins to wreak havoc on not only the shadowhunters but the Herondales specifically. Mature, as there will be some sex scenes, but shouldn't contain anything darker/ scarier than the books. Reviews appreciated!

    Will Herondale, driven mad with longing for Tessa Gray, cannot endure his feelings for her without running the risk of putting her in danger. He finds a temporary solution: a hatred potion, one that causes him to absolutely loathe Tessa.

    The members of the Institute quickly dwindle down to Will and Tessa. When Mortmain places an imprisoning curse on the Institute, the two find themselves trapped with only each other for company. Their freedom is scheduled for the end of the year. But until then, Will and Tessa must find a way to undergo the coming months without killing each other.

    When they're driven to near insanity from their isolation Will and Tessa both come to realize that hatred is not all that different from love.
