Will: Charlotte, I’ve hurt myself very badly! You must call Jem!

Charlotte: *sighing* Will, it’s just a splinter. You’ll be fine.

Will: I’m bleeding out and I think an infection has already set in!

Charlotte:

Charlotte: Fine. *mumbling as she walks away* This is the third time this week.

I am a proud simp of all the Herondales and I am not afraid to show it.

Does anyone else think about how much Will Herondale loved to read?

I do, but mainly because I love to read as well. And it got me thinking why does Will love to read? Then it hit me, the curse. This poor boy had been on his own for twelve years. Yes, he had Jem and those at the institute like Charlotte and Henry, but he didn’t know that. He thought he had to push everyone he loved away to protect them from himself. I imagine he grew tired of doing that for years and he wanted to feel like he wasn’t alone anymore. So, what does he do? He turns to books. In books he found his new friends, ones he could love and not have to worry about them dying. He got to pretend to be the main characters and go on adventures with his friends feeling all the emotions he didn’t think he could experience with Jem and his family at the institute.

Just when I think I couldn’t love this boy anymore. Will Herondale always finds a way to hit me right in the feels.

Anyway, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk

Basically Will throughout the entire series

Will: Nobody can love me or else’s they will die, so I must make them hate me!

Jem: Uh Will, I love you…

Will:Nope, no one loves me!

Tessa: Umm, what about me?

Will: Nobody loves me!

Jem, to Will: All my life, I’ve lived for loving you; let me go now.
