C*: Jace

© Cassandra Clare

 

.

Name: Jace Wayland (Herondale)

Nickname: Jace

From the book series:
The Mortal Instruments/ Die Chroniken der Unterwelt by Cassandra Clare (» Website)

Nature: Shadowhunter

Family:
Very complicated and I don’t want to spoil here too much 🙂

Location: New York

About:
Fighting, hunting, and killing demons are the things Jace is good ad. Though the jagged scars and black runic Marks on his body are a badge of honor as far as he’s concerned, he keeps a lot to himself. Like the fact that his parents were murdered by Valentine’s servants in front of him when he was ten years old. There are a lot of things Jace doesn’t talk about — until he meets Clary, a mundane girl who can see him, maybe better than he can see himself. The connection that binds them will force Jace to confront the black secrets of a past he never wanted to remember…

Best Friend: Alec Lightwood

In love with: Clary Fray (Fairchild/ Morgenstern)

(I know that Jamie Campbell Bower is going to play Jace in the film adaption of City of Bones, but in my head there will allways be Alex Pettyfer my perfect Jace and therefore the pics of Jace are from him…)

Here’s a link to an interview with Jace after he won the ‚Annual YA Crush Tournament‘ 2011 on the blog of  ‚The YA Sisterhood‘ and I think it’s a must-read, awesome, so funny and just ‚jace-like‘ and also the reason why we love our sarcastic-fabulous Jace so much! »Click here: »»»

Quote:

„Have you fallen in love with the wrong person yet?“
Jace said, „Unfortunately, Lady of the Haven, my one true love remains myself.“
…“At least,“ she said, „you don’t have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland.“
„Not necessarily. I turn myself down occasionally, just to keep it interesting.”
(City of Bones)

.

.

Quote:

Jace to Simon: „Well, I’m not kissing the mundane,“ said Jace. „I’d rather stay down here and rot.“
„Forever?“ said Simon. „Forever’s an awfully long time.“
Jace raised his eyebrows. „I knew it,“ he said. „You want to kiss me, don’t you?“
(City of Ashes)

.

.

Quotes:

Jace: „That does it,“ said Jace. „I’m going to get you a dictionary for Christmas this year.“
„Why?“ Isabelle said.
„So you can look up ‚fun.‘ I’m not sure you know what it means.“
(City of Ashes)

.

Jace and Clary: Out of the corner of her eye she thought she saw Jace shoot her a look of white rage – but when she glanced at him, he looked as he always did: easy, confident, slightly bored.
„In future, Clarissa,“ he said, „it might be wise to mention that you already have a man in your bed, to avoid such tedious situations.“
„You invited him into bed?“ Simon demanded, looking shaken.
„Ridiculous, isn’t it?“ said Jace. „We would never have all fit.“
„I didn’t invite him into bed,“ Clary snapped. „We were just kissing.“
„Just kissing?“ Jace’s tone mocked her with its false hurt. „How swiftly you dismiss our love.“
(City of Bones)

Quote:

Clary: “Is this the part where you start tearing off strips of your shirt to bind my wounds?“
Jace: „If you wanted me to rip my clothes off, you should have just asked.“
(City of Bones)

Enough of Jace, now some pictures with Jace & Clary:

Quote:

Jace: „One of the Silent Brothers is here to see you. Hodge sent me to wake you up. Actually he offered to wake you himself, but since it’s 5 a.m., I figured you’d be less cranky if you had something nice to look at.“
Clary: „Meaning you?“
Jace: „What else?“
(City of Bones)
*lol*

I really like this picture with Jace & Clary:

Clary and Jace

Quote:

„You’re the first Shadowhunter I’ve ever met.“
Jace: “That’s too bad,” said Jace, “since all the others you meet from now on will be a terrible letdown.“ (City of Fallen Angels) ^^

.

.

Quote:

Clary: „You’re just worried they’ll hire a male instructor and he’ll be hotter than you.“
Jace’s eyebrows went up. „Hotter than me?“
„It could happen,“ Clary said, „You know, theoretically.“
„Theoretically the planet could suddenly crack in half, leaving me on one side and you on the other, forever and tragically parted, but I’m not worried about that either. Some things,“ Jace said, with his customary crooked smile, „are just too unlikely to dwell upon.“
(City of Fallen Angels)

.

.

Quote:

Jace: „You could have had anything else in the world, and you asked for me.“
She smiled up at him. Filthy as he was, covered in blood and dirt, he was the most beautiful thing she’d ever seen.
Clary: „But I don’t want anything else in the world.“
(City of Glass)

.

.

Quote:

Jace: „And I’m suppose to sit by while you date boys and fall in love with someone else, get married…?“ His voice tightened. „And meanwhile, I’ll die a little bit more every day, watching.“
(City of Glass)

.

.

Quote:

Jace: There is no pretending,“ Jace said with absolute clarity. „I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there is life after that, I’ll love you then.“
(City of Glass)

.

.

Quote:

Jace: „And now I’m looking at you,” he said, “and you’re asking me if I still want you, as if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. I never dared give much of myself to anyone before – bits of myself to the Lightwoods, to Isabelle and Alec, but it took years to do it – but, Clary, since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely. I still do. If you want me.”
(City of Glass)

Here are Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower, who are going to play Clary and Jace in the movie:

Now some Short Stories to The Mortal Instruments Series, which I liked:

* Because It Is Bitter » » (The scene that takes place during pages 170-174 of City of Ashes, in the chapter The Seelie Court, here from Jace’s point of view)

* Hot and Heavy » » (“hot and heavy” scene in THIS GUILTY BLOOD, Chapter Nine of City of Glass.)

* Hot and Heavy Jace’s POV » » (Jace’s point of view of the “hot and heavy” scene in THIS GUILTY BLOOD, Chapter Nine of City of Glass.)
