Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
i WILL finish tda this time and i WILL enjoy it
Hey y’all! Myself and my friend noticed there was a big hole in the TSC fandom - namely, that there isn’t a Discord server for us all to come together and appreciate/freak out over our favourite Shadowhunters.
So we decided to fix it! Here is your official notice of the creation of The Downworld, a place for us to talk theories, go crazy over our beloved ships, worship those characters that maybe don’t get enough love fandom-wide, and of course, appreciate the absolute genius that is Cassandra Clare.
All we ask is that you be kind and respectful to each other, and agree to our server rules that’ll you see when you join. The server is also 18+ only, so unfortunately we won’t be able to allow minors to join.
If you’d be interested in joining, please feel free to reach out to me or @timesconvert and we’ll get the ball rolling - don’t be scared; unlike Jordan, we don’t bite!
Could it be Bat? 🤔😭😭
CASSIE JUST SAID THAT IN THE FIRST BOOK OF THE BOOK OF TWP WE SEE THE DEATH OF A CHARACTER WE HAVE KNOWN SINCE THE FIRST THREE BOOKS OF THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
kit and ty are going to absolutely serve the trope “someone who believes they are hard to love x someone who loves them like it’s breathing”
So, I may have forgotten to draw in the horns until after I colored the hair… oops. So Max has tiny black horns in this.
because that’s totally something he can do…
Not my best work, but I think it’s cute.
Drawn in October of 2023
I’m going to share some of my older sketches, now that I have a tumblr account. This is from October of 2022.
SOBS.
There is one random thought that just hasn’t left my mind since we discovered that Kit still dreams about Ty.
The last scene that Kit narrates in QoAaD where he is looking down at Ty and he says how he was away from all the noise, and the he said he hated himself in that moment because he wanted to go down there and protect Ty from all the noise. And I KNOW I just KNOW that he’s had at least ONE dream in which he went against his better judgement and instead of leaving with Jem and Tessa, he went down there with Ty.
WAIIIIIIITTTTT JUST ONE MOMENT
HUHHHHHHHHHHH
with a few different people posting about their predictions for twp, a common thread I've noticed is there's usually something regarding Ty finding out about Kit being the First Heir.... I see we've all forgotten about Ty being up that tree lmao
when the whole fandom is just geniuses lol
random thought I had the other day but never shared but. Ty lowkey parallels King David. I was thinking about QOAAD & the Battle on the Imperishable Fields, and how it's kinda weird Ty is mentioned multiple times to be using slingshot because that's not a typical shadowhunter weapon we see. then it occurred to me that literally a battle where giants show up and Ty helps "slay" them so to speak. like David & Goliath, which is also previously mentioned in QOAAD by Emma
where Julian's words are equated to David's stones. and by the way, David is said to have five stone and who's the fifth Blackthorn to try & speak to Julian & Emma? Ty. and this is what happens when he does.
not only that but King David of David & Goliath fame is also the David of (biblical) David & Jonathan fame, which the parabatai law draws inspiration from. aka the thing actively going wrong at that very moment. Biblical Jonathan also dies btw. and you wanna know what the icing on the the cake is? David's dad's name is Jesse.
theres no way this isn't a purposeful reference but I have no idea if it's like. just CC having fun or something that had Implications. food for thought.
yk ive seen lots of jokes abt how kit would describe ty as beautiful, (mentally) write flippin poetry about how he looks, assist in necromancy for him, and yet still think theyre just good friends. which i love, its hilarious, BUT.
im p sure he Knows™. like, he vaguely refers to his feelings not being fully platonic throughout qoaad. most notably, when he thinks abt the reasons why he no longer thinks abt being parabatai w ty, and at the end hes like, "maybe it was something else, but he pushed away from the thought"
which, yk. what else, kit? 👀 what else? 👀👀 kinda sus yk 👀👀 i mean whats the primary reason ppl cant b parabatai 👀👀 one u dont want to think abt 👀👀 what the smth else, kit? 👀👀👀
PLEASE.
Give me Tiberius Blackthorn gay panicking over Kit or give me death
I NEED his reactions to older brother Kit, softened by love Kit, denim jacket Kit, finally eating well and getting sunlight Kit who probably looks even better than when Ty first fell in love Kit
GIVE ME GIVE ME GIVE ME
im gonna kms /j

never underestimate a herondale in love
You know what I’m really curious about? How the fuck will Jessa let Kit go with Ty?? JUST LIKE THAT??? They’ve been protecting him for years with all the wards and stuff and they will just agree to let him go for probably a crazily dangerous (for him at least) mission??? There has to be smth to it, either Kit just disappears from home or idkkkkkk
randomly reminding that i'll read Ty's pov for the first time ever in twp
miss rabbit fainted
randomly reminding that Herongraystairs will finally happen in twp
miss rabbit fainted again
You don’t even know what type of a celestial being I will turn into while reading Ty’s pov for the first time, you do not know
Count the hours count the days count the years I’ll spend in that place
"You really think that's such a good idea?" Kit said. "I mean, your house is pretty screwed up, what with your agoraphobia uncle and your weird brother.""
Julian's hands tightened on the wheel, but the only thing he said was, "Ty isn't weird."
"I meant Mark," said Kit. There was an odd pause. "Ty isn't weird," Kit added. "He's just autistic."
diana and gwyn are honestly the most underrated power couple rb if you agree
"Which means I can’t ever send this and you can’t ever read it. I’ll burn it in the garden when I’m done writing it so I’m not tempted to send it."

I wonder what happened in TLH era for them bury all those things. Cordelia's scabbard, James's gun and broken pieces of a sword which I think is the Blackthorn sword because it was never mentioned in TDA, in Jesse's coffin.
I haven’t posted in absolutely ages so here’s a photo of Kit Herondale to brighten your day.
This song always reminds me of Julian Blackthorn in all his wholesomeness
