Anyone else remember when Simon and George were gonna raise baby out if there sock drawer? Cause it was so pure I love them so much!
Simon is the only one who will remember the possum incident
Okay so I've had some thoughts about this, ESPECIALLY as a Simon fan. If you look at my account I think it's pretty obvious that my favourite character of all time is Simon Lewis-Lovelace-Lightwood, and alot of stuff in the newer books, including TFTSA bother me about his character. I hate how Cassie keeps trying to push him out, she killed off all his character development with George, even all the other TFTSA characters like Jon, Julie, ect, in the later book more or less ignore him and there reason for being there is cause if Jace and Clary. Simon is allowed to have friends that don't revolve around Clace. I feel like his whole asension is so forced, never once has Simon expressed anything other than being annoyed or even hateful of the Clave and Anything Shadow hunter, ( Including RAZIEL, you know the angel that dictates who survives the cup or not that more than likely despises his ass after CoLS) so him wanting to be a shadowhunter is very unlike him.
Even so he should have been George's, or even Marisols Parbati, not Clarys. Not that I think he would have one period, He's JEWISH, a huge part of that is not marking your skin, including tattoos or Runes, which Are literally burned onto your skin! I feel like Cassie writes his faith over as character convenience, and other than the star of David, it Earley mentioned.
Cassie should have explored his experience gaining his memories back and rediscovering his place in the shadow world...which as a Mundane he would have had to CARVE.HIS.WAY. INTO! Even with his status. Like his strength of of will is imaculate, and his mental strength his what got him through, and is commented on by magnus or Alec (I don't rember) in LBOTW. But if course that is shoved under the rug, to make room for Julian and Emma...and of course more Clace. The only characters That really get explored outside of Clace is Malec, and I feel like that's mostly due to there fan base. Like Simon out smarted and/or out willed, Lilith(the mother of demons!) Azazel( LUCIFERS second in command), Raziel( a fucking angel) Asmodeus,Samuel,Valentine, Sebastian, Molachi, Robert Lightwood, Jace, The Seelie Queen, Raphael Santiago...shall I continue?? He deserves respect from that alone.
Don't get me wrong I love Clace, and Climon is one of my favorite friendships, but it's not focused on outside of competition for Jace( which he wins,cause why would Simon's literally life and or sanity outway his angst??) Or plot convince to get Clary where she needs as a character ( to get closer with Jace.) Even isebelle, like I love Sizzy, but her whole personality went from being a whip welding badass, to being a shallow heartthrob, who is only with Simon. There whole relationship ship is so forced...but she needed someone to take Simon attention of Clary,(so her primary focus can one again be Jace)
My god I never meant to write this much but damn Simon Slander gets me pissed, HES FUCKING IMPORTANT AND IN PAIN ANF UNDERAPPRECIATED, SOMEONE GIVE HIM A HUG!!!
I feel like I should mention my theory that George only died because Raziel couldn't take his grudge out on Simon, so he took it out on his BROTHER!!!
I think in the Tales, Simon was concerned that he couldn't become Clary's parabatai because he's a bit older than her and close to 18. But it was explained to him that becoming a vampire stopepd his aging, so he's still 17 and still has time to complete his training, Ascend and then take the parabatai oath.
I think CoB started with Clary's birthday but I can't remember if it was her 15th or 16th (I think 15th, because I remember my shock at how young when was lol). Considering that the whole TMI story happened in months (I really don't think it was years) and the vampire thing, he still had time.
All is possible for Clare's darlings! as long as she can play matchy matchy and pair everyone up in some way or another to play on that nostalgia factor.
Like why would Simon be parabatai with someone who's virtually a stranger to him after the memory loss curse?
Why because Clare needs everyone and everything to revolve around Clary (and by extension Jace and the SH world)!
Angel forbid Simon actually forgot all about them and lived his life as normal without having to abandon his family, friends and religion.
She even killed off George to make sure Simon could get the Lovelace last name AND didn't have to choose between him and Clary đđđ
It was Claryâs 16th birthday in City of Bones. As the events of The Mortal Instruments take place in 2007, and Tales takes place some months after COHF, itâs somewhere in 2008. Simon would turn 18 in October that year and Clary would turn 17 in August. And since Simon was physically stuck at the same age some time, thereâs that.
Okay, they are both under 18 even if Simon didnât manage to push through his education and ascension before October. Itâs a tight schedule but conveniently Simon has a reason why Clary and Simon can happen as parabatai. Itâs not exactly pushing the rules because it does fit and kind of make sense, but again, itâs convenient.
Parabatai were told to be rare, but now many characters have one after Clare got more enthusiastic about it after concocting The Infernal Devices. Before Clockwork Angel the only book in the series to use the word parabatai was City of Bones. Simon and Clary donât feel like parabatai. I forgot they were when reading The Lost Book of the White until the line âHe was standing in front of his sister and his parabatai and his parabataiâs girlfriend and her parabatai.â Thatâs more parabatais used than in CoA and DoG combined (which was none).
Simon continuing on with his life wouldâve been good for him. Clary wouldâve lost something, the story wouldâve had more stakes. Simon did the heavy lifting for the plot in TMI and suffered for it. Simon got dragged into the shadow world because he didnât want to leave Clary, but this way Clary couldâve let Simon go to live his human life with his friends and family. But whoâd be Claryâs parabatai? Whoâd date Isabelle?
Matchy, matchy.
I hope that when Simon and Isabelle get married, Simon takes the Lightwood name. I hate that nostalgia-baiting with the name Lovelace.

YESSS I Want more content of them just chilling out being kids and stuff! Julie and Beatriz being Parabati, Simon and Jon's rivalry/begrudgingly friends! Marisol,Simon and George confusing the rest of them with basic Mundane things, and vise versa with shadowhunter stuff. Casual mentiong of 'The possum incident. Isabelle just showing up randomly and people just stop questioning it. The gang protecting Simon for "paparazzi" with out him knowing. I need this. some tag me if you write it pls.
Iâve been rereading Tales from Shadowhunter Academy and I need Academy kids content so bad. Give me the marisolxJon. Give me more of the kids. Especially with George Lovelace. Ugh does anyone ANYONE write them or take requests? đ« Iâm desperate.
I want more Dark!Simon Lewis fics. I want a dark, twisted morally grey, possibly insane murder happy Simon. Fics where he sees merit in Camilles ideals, where he's done with the crap the 'shadowhunter' put him through with out any recognition. Fics where he's a demon, or a serial killer. Make him be a solo act badass, or make him have a partner in crime, Saia, Sizzy, Jimon, Simon/ Jonathon, I DON'T CARE. All they others get these AU( Alec, Magnus, Clary ect.), Simon has more greater demon kills then the rest of the group combined, Lilith, Abbadon, the whole Azazel thing.He got an angel to listen to him. Asmodues has his immortal life force!! I want fic where they change up his curse and Asmoudes uses him to raise Lucifer or something. Lilith and Camille both sought him out directly in there attempt at power, I'm tired of him being portrayed as a tag along, he literally carried the team through out the dark war! He watched someone he though of as his brother die, and everyone just kinda brushes over it like it didn't matter!! I want that backlash, this is the guy who THREATENED an actual angel! He doesn't just tag along and get kidnapped. The entire shadow world just kinda treats him like the weak link, when he's not! Remember, he went through the entire mortal instrument without an once of formal training, and still killed THE MOTHER OF DEMONS, beat Jace in CoLS, figured out how to survive Edom, killed abbadon on Day 1. Even Alec says he goes undervalued. I want more BAMF Simon fics. Simon Lewis people, appreciate him.
THIS....did NOT age well....
God, what if George Lovelace doesnât survive ascension?
What if he does so well in his training, if heâs calmed Simon from nightmares for months by this time, and theyâve told each other dozens of old secrets and made some new ones, and George is one of few people simon has a solid wonderful, cover-to-cover memory of
And when finally he takes the cup, something in it doesnât take, and George is just gone?
Itâll be the second time Simon loses his friendly, supportive roommate/friend who made the shadow world bearable.
Someone help me, it's 2 in the morning and I'm thinking about rereading Shadowhunter academy again.
