About Shadowhunters:
Based on the bestselling young adult fantasy book series The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare, Shadowhunters follows 18-year-old Clary Fray, who finds out on her birthday that she is not who she thinks she is but rather comes from a long line of Shadowhunters, human-angel hybrids who hunt down demons. When her mother Jocelyn is kidnapped, Clary is thrown into the world of demon hunting with mysterious Shadowhunter Jace and her best friend, Simon. Now living among faeries, warlocks, vampires and werewolves, Clary begins a journey of self-discovery as she learns more about her past and what her future may hold.

Bless this show for letting men who are not romantically involved be emotional and comforting to each other.

Facts. Shadowhunters are like “Toxic masculinity? Don’t know her” 💅🏾

[@mjikayla]

Godbless Cassie for setting the stage 👏🏾

[@Sco2b]

I’m a year late but as I was watching this show I was so amazed at how all the men were more than just 1 Dimensional characters that they actually had a range of emotions

[@tilly_guest1]

Yeah in case you didnt know Parabatai are 2 shadowhunters bonded closer than blood so they have a strong brotherly bond

[@hoshi1946]

*Alec wakes up and speaks* *Magnus and Clary hold hands* Magnus and Clary: *I'm proud of our babies*

OMG TRUE THO

[@Pyxis_2877]

LOL

Oh god that look on Jace's face when he realized that Alec came back. Gets me every time. Also Clary and Magnus holding hands.

[@88Meava88]

Me to. So beautiful.

[@maleckinnie9618]

YES SO MANY PEOPLE MISS THE HANDS THING

[@zgsttennessee4335]

This was beautifully well done by Dom and Matthew. I just love when two men who aren't afraid just be all touching and feeling with one another. They have amazing chemistry with one another.

[@despoinapolyxr8964]

He's not the strongest actor but he slayed this scene, Dom I mean.

[@cecilia8515]

@@chingchingchingching2064 I think he is one of the strongest actors, his character goes through a lot in the show. He changes from being cocky to feeling able to show his emotions after meeting Clary.

@ 1:58 "please don't leave me Alec" it just broke me 😭 I've been repeating this scene over and over again

[@ziyiang5872]

Yes yes

[@jadynyeo1799]

I cried so hard while watching this part

[@CursedBloodlines]

Jace never opened that emotionally to anyone else, including Clary...Best relationship so far! Alec & Jace's bond own the show

[@chelsea-so8ro]

CursedBloodlines MY BROTP

[@Aillin846]

CursedBloodlines alec and jace relationtip is the best for me in this show

[@brimstoneclub]

You have to give Isabelle credit. Her brother is dying, but she didn't break the bond between Alec and Jace.

[@Lovedafie]

Her acting was soo bad tho. If my sister was dying in front of my eyes i would lay on the ground crying. She didnt even have tears in the shot at 2:05... really ruined it for me.

[@JennieReads]

I agree! That single tear that slid down Clary's cheek at 1:36 was ten times more emotion than Isabelle had. And at this point in the story I think Clary's only known Alec for a total of ten or so days.

[@Ellie123NYchicLAbabe]

that's because isabelle isn't a mundane like clary. remember in earlier episodes they said shadowhunters were brought up and taught to control their emotions so maybe that's why she's so "heartless" in this scene, but let's be honest, she cares about alec just as much as jace but her personality just doesn't seem like the type to show it that's all :)

[@emmi868]

Magnus teared up too

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

She does for the man she loves though. She cracks emotionally as the seasons progress

[@KiaraLionessTM]

This scene broke me the way Jace was feeling and the fact that he thought that he was going to lose his brother and the way he almost cried because he knew that he needed him in my opinion Jace and Alec have a strong brother bond in Shadowhunters and it really touches me to see them as real brothers because Alec even in the books is all Jace had growing up and he WAS his family and brother maybe not by blood but by bond 😢❤️

[@EmeraldChild2244]

Kiara LionessTM {Kiara Fray Fairchild} As Alec has said before, "He's closer than blood, he's my Parabatai." They share a soul, nothing could be closer than that. Like all brothers/siblings, they have their arguments but they can never be truly separated.

[@mariasantosroman1066]

Sameee! I cried while watching it

[@cheila7252]

jace and alec has this parabatai bond but the strong brothers(siblings) bond it's between izzy and alec

[@cyberkhajiit]

Alec is so beautiful, even at the edge of death, that it hurts.

[@marinakeza7541]

"Please don't leave me Alec😭" 💔Oh my heart💘

I think the clave are the true villains of the story

[@xSparklyPhoenixFlame]

parabatai goals ♥ this scene gets me everytime ; Doms&Matts acting here were out of this world ♥

[@ShaytardsIntro2015]

we all knew alec wasn't going to die, but the editing of the parabatai ceremony cutting back to jace reciting it makes me bawl my fucking eyes out. never cried harder in my life

[@sweetheart037]

Best scene from Shadowhunters to date! This is what a parabatai would feel....

[@smarthydra061]

Ikr like "Jace Wayland-! Oh, Your in the middle of something, we'll, come back later, take ur time." But NOPE

[@flutterbyedreams5188]

I love the difference between how the flashback Jace said the first line and how current Jace said it. Flashback was arrogant and entitled in the way he said it, but current Jace had so much pain and emotion behind the one line. I guess it felt like flashback wanted the bond and felt like he deserved it, while current NEEDED it for his very heart to beat and there's something about that difference that really speaks to me about how much Alec means to Jace and depends on him. So much of their bond seems to focus on how important Jace is to Alec it's nice to see that it goes both ways.

[@chwjordy1]

I just realised after watching at least 5 times that Alec actually was stuck in his memories with Jace. That's why when part of his soul is being pulled back by Jace, the memory him stopped saying the oath and acting strange. Gosh took me long enough. It's so beautiful 😭

[@chiaracostanzo5714]

Definitely the most emotional & best scene of Shadowhunters.

[@TheAnnepaglinawan]

ikr

[@miberlimoreno4162]

such a beautiful moment and the stupid clave ppl ruined it😭

[@doublesalopetoimcre]

Jace didnt let it ruined! u didnt listen his last line?

[@88Meava88]

I did. The clave stil ruined it

[@michaelaspiro8160]

Such an amazing scene .. every piece of this scene felt like it was put together with such careful consideration down to the details ...From the use of the music which is subtle but haunting to the use of imagery and flashbacks which beautifully illustrated the bond these two share and finally to the incredible acting . The emotional vulnerability shared in this scene was just amazing especially when you consider the characters of Jace and Alec and how both of them .. Are very guarded usually with their emotions because of what they are , the lifestyle they live which is these strong stoic warriors fighting to protect and keep their world safe ... And you just get a sense in the world of shadow hunting It is almost considered a cardinal sin for them to show weakness , emotion and love to some degree and that makes this scene truly amazing .. It humanized the characters because in this life or death moment it was as if everything they were going thru just disappeared and both of them just gave in and allowed emotion to pour out ... It felt like this scene was a liberation of the soul the heart . The way they held on to each other crying ....you could feel in this scene the incredible bond the love these two have for one another . They are truly brothers . A bond that will not be broken . Hands down my favorite scene from the show so far .

[@coolgirlzinuwu1615]

[@keziaswan56]

Beautifully worded. You certainly have a way with words

[@swan_909]

Magnus had tears in his eyes when he thought he lost alec. It was heartbreaking to see that. I am loving vulnerable jace

[@truce7024]

This is my favourite scene so far. The flashbacks and the way Jace said those words with tears in his eyes... I have seen it so many times.

[@pkikt.9763]

Apart from the papatai moment , did U all see how Jace turns around and walks with confidence to be read the most scary rights and he doesnt even care b'se Alec is back

[@nicolinger9785]

"It's all right Alec all that matters is your back" the Jalec feeeeeelllllsssss
