Hey y’all! Myself and my friend noticed there was a big hole in the TSC fandom - namely, that there isn’t a Discord server for us all to come together and appreciate/freak out over our favourite Shadowhunters.
So we decided to fix it! Here is your official notice of the creation of The Downworld, a place for us to talk theories, go crazy over our beloved ships, worship those characters that maybe don’t get enough love fandom-wide, and of course, appreciate the absolute genius that is Cassandra Clare.
All we ask is that you be kind and respectful to each other, and agree to our server rules that’ll you see when you join. The server is also 18+ only, so unfortunately we won’t be able to allow minors to join.
If you’d be interested in joining, please feel free to reach out to me or @timesconvert and we’ll get the ball rolling - don’t be scared; unlike Jordan, we don’t bite!

let's take a moment for lucie herondale though. she's such a bad bitch and she's a fellow writer
will there be Grace or other grey characters like Julian hate? Im a bit worried on joinging because I love them both and a big part of the fandom hates them
the plan is to keep the space comfortable for everyone, without censoring discussion.
i can't promise there won't be complaints (not a fan of grace myself going through my first read of tlh i won't lie) but there is a dedicated space for ranting/general anti bitching to hopefully keep the space welcoming for everyone!
"if i smile then they'll die?" my sweet little dumb dumb
"bloodmarks are inherited" SORRY IS THE IMPLICATION THAT HE TOOK IN HER BLOODMARK OR THAT HE'S DESCENDED FROM THE KING
I hurt myself emotionally thinking about Will & Jem too hard earlier today...
i'm aware fandom has always been filled with intense arguments and was never a happy fluffy paradise, but there was etiquette that just feels like it has disappeared. people have really abandoned those unspoken rules of fandom in favour of petty drama and it's extremely frustrating.
if you want some silly drama read a ku erotica book or watch a soap opera. why would you actively engage in fandom content just to make people angry? the worst part is they tag wrong on purpose because it's not about loving x inflammatory ship or x inflammatory character, it's just about pissing people off.
and it's deeply obvious who does this because they may think they're being subtle but there is a frankly embarrassing amount of "oh i don't care about your opinion! look how much i don't care! (but i'm gonna refresh my blog every ten seconds until i see an angry comment or reblog)" energy coming from these posts.
not to sound like an old fart, but i miss the old days where the biggest drama in fandoms were ship wars that were frankly easy to avoid by blocking tags and wether or not pidge from voltron was trans.
it's gonna take a fuck of a lot to make me forgive grace after she literally just sexually assaulted matthew
just realized i never updated this thrilling saga:
i ended up liking him
before i read tlh for the first time i read cast long shadows and every exquisite thing and i have one thing to say:
FUCK ALASTAIR
if that man has no haters i'm a corpse idc idc idc. he will never redeem himself to me.
