The warlock's gaze, on the flames, was remote and distant, as if he were looking back into the past. Simon couldn't help but remember what Magnus had said to him once, about living forever:Someday you...
That's why when major badasses greet each other in movies, they don't say anything, they just nod. The nod means, 'I' am a badass, and I recognize that you, too, are a badass,' but they don't say anyt...
That's right. Act like rejected . It's not like you tried to kill me or anything.
No. That's Clary; shes's my best friend. Simon pocketed his phone. And she has a boyfriend. Like, really, really, really has a boyfriend. The nuclear bomb of boyfriends. Trust me on this one.
Jace shook his head. I don’t care if I did just set myself on fire, he said. I’m not hugging you.
If I feel the urge to burst into flames, I'll let you know, Simon was getting fed up. Look, did you actually ask me to come all the way uptown just so you could stare at me like I'm something in a pet...
I'll take Shadowhunter, then. Because from what I've experienced of vampires, you mostly suck. No pun intended.
Does that mean you agree?He groaned. I think it means you crushed my spirit and beat me down.Fantastic.
All that running and getting nowhere, he thought. Story of my life.
You want a piece of all fabulousness? He gestured to himself. Well, my best friend comes along with it. I wouldn't cut you out of my life, Clary, any more than I would cut off my right hand and give...
You really want to know what else it was my mom said about you? he asked.She shook her head.He didn't seem to notice. She said you'd break my heart, he told her, and left.
With the whole Mark of Cain thing, does that mean if I accidentally kick you during the night, I get kicked in the shins seven times by an invisible force?
Why are you always trying to get yourself killed?It's my job.It's a of your job. At least for most Shadowhunters. For you it seems to be the purpose.
We’ve been here before, haven’t we? Last time you were starving, I gave you my blood. It was a little homoerotic, maybe, but I’m secure in my sexuality.
It doesnt hurt. But my eyes do, said a coolly amused voice from the doorway. Jace. He had come in so quietly that even Simon hadn't heard him, he grinned as Isabelle pulled Simon's shirt down. Molesti...
Is this the part where you tell me you're secretly in love with me? Vampire mojo strikes again.
He felt his heart, which no longer beat, contract, and he wondered if there was anything in the world as painful as not being able to protect the people you loved.
Do you even really know how vampires are made?''Well, when a mommy vampire and a daddy vampire love each other very much...
Basia coquum, Simon said. Or whatever their motto is.It's 'Descensus Averno facilis est.' 'The descent into hell is easy, said Alec. You just said Kiss the cook.Dammit, said Simon. I knew Jace was scr...
Of course, everyone's going to freak out when you show up at school.Freak out? Why?Because you're so much hotter now than when you left. She shrugged. It's true. Must be a vampire thing.Simon looked b...
