Clary Fray

Quote 10

"Demon hunting and fashion," Clary said. "I never would have thought they went together." (11.224)

Here's something we can get behind—showing your strength and taking charge, now that's hot.

Quote 11

[Simon] wasn't looking at [Clary's] backpack; he was looking at her legs as if he'd never seen them before. (11.228)

We wouldn't be surprised if Clary had a tomboy style, until she puts on one of Isabelle's dresses confirming that yes, she is a girl, and yes, she does have legs. This isn't going to help deter Simon's unrequited crush one bit. Poor guy.

Quote 12

Chiaroscuro, [Clary] thought. The art of shadows and light. (11.165)

Clary's art education enables her to make nifty arty metaphors about Jace and his inner conflict between light and dark.
