I’m currently going through City of Bones for my paper again and I just realized that Alec’s experience in this book is literally:
“… but Jace ignored him.”
“Simon ignored him.”
“… but Clary ignored him.”
He gets kicked, insulted, yelled at, dragged out of bed two times and almost killed in the end.
City of Bones did not have a lot of good days for Alec Lightwood.
#lul#this entire series is an etude in how to ignore Alec tbh#he had no presence in those books except to be magnus love interest and have other characters ignore him#or legit walk all over him#alec lightwood#tmi#on the long list of characters that deserved better#he was the embodiment of the token gay guy
