I ADORE Simon/Clary! I'm not even spite-shipping it tbh they're adorable and precious and I just love bffs who fall in love. I still am kind of "hmm" about how Clary apparently just all of a sudden had feelings for him once he confessed? But it doesn't feel at all like a placeholder for Clary/Jace and the acting/chemistry makes me believe it. It KILLS ME that there's no way the show's ever gonna go for Jace/Clary/Simon because like...ALL the groundwork is there!! I'd be a way better way to resolve the love triangle than Simon and Clary somehow just deciding (?) they're actually better as friends. In any case, ngl I will still eat up ALL THE PINING JACE.
You were talking on Tumblr about Sizzy and how you can't imagine Simon ever prioritizing Izzy over Clary, and man what I would give for the show to just...ignore that relationship entirely. From everything I've read it sounds entirely like a "pair the spares" ship based on...nothing other than laziness? And Izzy deserves so much better than that. The show made me believe in Raphael/Izzy in a matter of three (?) episodes so it's possible that if they do a very very slow build I might be down w/ Simon/Izzy one day but meh. I'd rather they not even try.
The "I love you" scene KILLED ME sfm, though the hugging might've been my favorite part of it?? That made me buy it more than anything else. That and Magnus's FACE here.
It's def been annoying at times this season how Magnus is always the one to support Alec not the other way around, but I'm hopeful 2B tries to remedy that a bit? And just shows more of Magnus as a character as a whole apart from him. I'm excited for the bb Magnus flashbacks tho and I REALLY want them to introduce Caterina eventually. (My DREAM is that we one day get a Fool For Love-type Magnus flashback episode. Maybe once his father shows up? IDK. Just GIVE ME ALL THE MAGNUS FLASHBACKS.)
The show has done a great job of making me love certain things in very short time so I could theoretically like Sizzy one day. Fingers crossed if they do end up doing it, they do it justice.

It was so beautiful. The hugging was especially beautiful - like more of that please show - these two clinging to each other like the only two survivors of a shipwreck.
I'm excited for 2B, tentatively. Like, the show is doing a pretty decent job with certain things and working them over time e.g., Alec's really measured development that might have been frustrating at points to watch but WOW does it just work when you look at it as a whole. So fingers crossed the increased Magnus POV will take us even deeper.
