Charles: *opens his mouth*
Matthew:
Alastair: I love the term ‘significant other’ but it makes me want to call people ‘insignificant other’ if they’re an important enemy
Thomas: I hope I’m not your insignificant other
Alastair, blushing:
Matthew: I’m scared of clowns
Lucie: You better be careful around mirrors then
Cordelia, upon meeting Matthew: Do you have any special skills?
Matthew: Yes, distraction
Cordelia: So you’re good at distracting people?
Matthew: No, I’m good at getting distracted
Kit: The retirement age should be changed to 18 years old
Kit: I’m tired
*Will tucking a 4-year-old Lucie to bed*
Will: Lucie, it’s time for bed
Lucie: Mr. Snuffles says that I can stay up as long as I want and you need to die
Will: What the fuck, Mr. Snuffles?
James: I did something stupid and I need advice, but I don’t want any criticism or judgement
Matthew: And you came to me?
Corporate needs you to find the difference!
Chain of Thorns - the number of pages
Cordelia: Sorry for the mess
Matthew: Oh, it’s nothing. You should see my life

**Warning: This is reeeally long!**
Since I’ve been spending too much time thinking about Chain of Gold, I may as well put this out there.
With all the confusion (read: shipwars) about Lucie’s TLH endgame, i.e., the Lucie x Jessie vs. Lucie x Matthew, I figured I’d look at the “evidence” we have for and against Fairondale and Jucie(?) so far in canon:
Fairondale’s canon:
- Age: Jessie and Lucie have a too-large age gap for Cassie’s books so far (excluding Malec, I guess). 16 and 24 is a LOT imo. Matthew and Lucie are much closer in age.
- TMI/City of Heavenly Fire: When Tessa meets Clary in the CoHF Epilogue, she says that “There are families—the Blackthorns, the Herondales, the Carstairs—for whom I have always felt a special affinity” and “The Fairchilds, too, have been dear to me in my life.” Tessa doesn’t talk about loving the Lightwoods or Lovelaces (lol) like that so it’s obvious she’s not referring to the TID crew. Also she (and Jem!) have obviously watched over the Fairchilds QUITE A BIT since Jocelyn called on Tessa of all people to perform Clary’s protection ritual. Thats a huge deal at a time when Jocelyn was hiding from the entire Shadow World. They are obviously very close and Jocelyn trusted Tessa (and Jem) THAT MUCH. Wonder why…
- Magnus’ POV: Magnus’ “necromancy is bad” conversation with Ty made it look like he wasn’t thinking of any exceptions. He’s around in TLH, and very close to the Herondales (he even mentions Lucie and James in CoHF), but he doesn’t make it sound like he thinks “necromancy is bad except for Lucie who found her soulmate through it”. Makes me pretty sure the necromancy for Jesse doesn’t end in a happily ever after.
- The family tree: Cassie’s said many many times that the family tree is lying to us. This means that at least one or more big ships are gonna come as surprises in the end. Now its looking like James and Cordelia might actually end up together since they both actually love each other (Gracelet-free!James does at least, and the Gracelet’s gonna go obv). Our 3 protagonists are Cordelia, James and Lucie. I really doubt the family tree gets ALL THREE of their endgames right - it’s just not Cassie’s style (in every series at least one of her mains gets a surprising ending) and it would lower the odds and surprise of the finale too much. And that leaves Lucie’s endgame. Meaning Lucie might end up with Matthew instead of Jesse.
Jucie’s canon:
- Attraction: Lucie’s attracted to Jesse as of ChoG at least (she notices that his skin is soft? and thinks about his eyes and hair all the time) and says she’s not attracted to Matthew - except for that one sentence (“Lucie”, he said softly, and she almost closed her eyes, remembering how he had put his coat around her in the street, the warmth of his touch, the faint scent of him, brandy and dry leaves.)
- Supernatural stuff: Lucie’s powers seem to be perfectly matched for Jessie’s, erm, circumstances. It really does seem to be a fated sort of thing.
- Family tree: If Fairondale end up together, AND if Clary’s descended from Matthew, it might mean that Jace and Clary are a little bit related, and both descended from Will. And I really don’t know if Cassie would do that after all the TMI stuff.
- City of Heavenly Fire: Again from the CoHF Epilogue: “There are families—the Blackthorns, the Herondales, the Carstairs—for whom I have always felt a special affinity”. If Jucie don’t end up together, I really can’t imagine a good reason for why Tessa cares about the Blackthorns. I doubt its because she cares so much about (dis)Grace.
TLDR: This is driving me nuts!
Feel free to add to this if I missed any clues

Will spread his arms wide. On his knees, grinning like a demon, blood dripping from his mouth, he barely looked human himself. “Come and get me.”
