In honor of people who have no media literacy and read Kitty as ✨FRIENDS/PARABATAI✨, I present...
Kit Herondale and Ty Blackthorn as canonic love interest: a thread🧵
I think it's a bit weird how some of you see some type of romantic gesture in a situation where Ty has to choose between Livvy or Kit
Ty's arc is obviously gonna be about letting Livvy go, but not so that he can have Kit as a bf but bc it's killing him and making Livvy miserable
@kittycarstairs i think under normal conditions he might have end up killing himself just to keep Livvy, but I do not think ty is just gonna risk leaving Dru alone in an apocalyptic situation while the rest of his sibling are trapped on that lake
@herondalizm does that mean that sealing of world is the only possible world changing scenario? no, (thule itsself is an example of another world changing scenario ) but the books that built TSC had a lot of foreshadowing for a seal the world scenario and what that would mean for the sh
@herondalizm I only brought that up bc you used cc not wanting to do something that drastic as the excuse of why is was unlikely, when she has actually already talk about that type of big and drastic changes that fits perfectly with the theory again +
@herondalizm you said cc has never mention an apocalyse, I just point out cc mentioning the apocalypse as something TWP centers
you said cc does not want a drastic ending, I just point out cc mentioning the shadowhunter world will change forever, pretty drastic to me
@herondalizm cc has actually said:
- TWP inspiration centers in the apocalypse and biblical canvas of events
- something will happen that will change the nature of Shadowhunters and what they mean
-Shadowhunter world will change forever
@herondalizm I think there's been a lot of foreshadowing on sealing the world from demons as an ultimate goal and the consequences for SH for cc to not have them achieve it at the end
the circuntances surronding it & how much of the shadowworld/magic system survive the apocalypse is very open
@herondalizm But since the Shadowhunters were created thanks to the dream of Jonathan, the first Shadowhunter, it would be a very fitting ending if his ultimate dream, a world in which his people would not have to be warrior and could live in peace, was achieve in The Last Shadowhunter
@herondalizm whether sh are able to keep their then useless powers, if most SH die in the apocalypse, if they became mundanes or if they start SH without borders and go to thule to help... that is the theory realm and very unlikely to predict with three more books still to be published in TSC
I get that the plot made it difficult, but it was not impossible. Ty and Ash's POV would have improve TLKOF by developing Ty/Livvy dynamic, and Ash dynamic with Clary/Janus/Nene/Seelie Queen. Also, nothing stopped cc from developing Kit/Livvy's dynamic, but it was still missing
#tlkofspoilers
TLKOF suffers from a lack of secondary characters.
In TMI and TDA, Emma and Clary didn't just interact with their love interest. They have plenty of people around them to explore other different dynamics.
In TLKOF Dru and Kit barely had any meaningful +
The dynamic between Dru/Ash is stuck all TLKOF at the same point: Dru trying to manipulate Ash, failing and trying to resist his hotness. There are only so many times you can have your characters enter and exit the scene at the same emotional point without it feeling repetitive.
