Shamalan: I decided to do this project because I want to put out my opinion on certain pairings. These are just my opinions, I'm not saying that people can't feel different about it. I'm doing this for several stories, animes, games, etc.

Musings about Pairings
Mortal Instruments Edition
Pairing 1: Magnus and Alec
Now everyone knows that Magnus and Alec get together. It's even stated in the story. Magnus with all his tall feline grace is definitely the dominant one. His personality demands it. He may occasionally allow himself to be on bottom but that will only be on special occasions.
Alec is an incredibley meek person. It can be fun to make him dominant but he would be every out of character.
Pairing 2: Jace and Alec
I don't like Jace and I feel no shame in saying it. He's a complete ass. And I'm not a big fan on this pairing. Alec is a sweet person and I think that if he ever ended up with Jace it would turn out to be a messy affair.
Jace is too bossy a person. He would never allow anyone to top him and would probably turn Alec into the kind of person that only wants to please.
Pairing 3: Jace and Clary
I felt so bad when they thought they were brother and sister, and a little grossed out. Incest, yuck.
This pairings I am completely for. I can hate Jace all I want, but he is the only one for Clary. They are the perfect pair for each other. They're both annoying.
Pairing 4: Simon and Clary
Against this pair. Completely against this pair. When Clary was using Simon because she was upset with Jace, I was so angry. Clary claimed to be friends with Simon but friends would not do what she did. It just goes to show how nice Simon is because if it had been me I would never forgive Clary for using me as a substitute.
Pairing 5: Simon and Maia
I am actually a fan of this pairing. I know that it's a bit cliché, almost like Romeo and Juliet, but it's still a good pairing.
Having these two together would be a good anchor for a peace treaty between the werewolves and the vampires. The pairings shows that they can be something other than enemies.
Pairing 6: Raphael and Simon
This pairing is an interesting one. I don't know who would be the dominant one.
Raphael is a rather petite fellow. Slim and probably around 5'5". He looks like he would be the uke, considering he is small and cute. However, I have always felt that if Raphael were ever to be on the bottom it would be because he beaten in the fight for dominance. There is no way he would meekly lay back and take it. Someone would have to make him submit. That's the only way he would allow it, and then of course, he would probably like being dominated. Kinky.
Simon is average size, so he's probably around 5'7". His temperatment is kind of meek, though. He could definitely be the seme but he would have to find someone who was more compliant then he was. He just doesn't have an aggressive enough attitude.
So there is my dilemna on them. Does Simon top and Raphael just lay there and take it? Or does the smaller vampire show Simon who's really in charge?
Pairing 7: Alec and Isabelle
Absolutely not! I don't like incest. And this pairing would make absolutely no sense. That's all I have to say on it.
Pairing 8: Alec and Simon
This one doesn't make any sense either. They never had enough interaction to build anything off of it. Both of them are too timid anyway. They both need someone to show them who's in charge.
Pairing 9: Magnus and Simon
?
Pairing 10: Magnus and Jace
Would never work. Both of them are way to domineering and Magnus would totally end up turning Jace into a pile of glitter or something.
Pairing 11: Simon and Isabelle
It could work. Isabelle would were the pants in the relationship, though. I don't really think it would last long. Isabelle would eventually grow bored with Simon and move on to the next person. I think that Isabelle is looking for someone who can control her. She seems like the kind of girl who wants to fight before she moves on to the loving.
Pairing 12: Valentine and Luke (Lucian)
Can totally see it happen. At least, when they were younger. If you read between the lines when Luke was explaining his relationship with Valentine with Clary, Luke sounds like he was in love with Valentine.
I can see Valentine using the relationship as a way to rule Luke, to make sure that Luke will do whatever he asks. I can also see Valentine loving Luke. He loved Jocelyn, after all. His love would just be overshadowed by his obsession with destroying the demons and the underworlders.
I think this relationship would only work when the two are young, though.
If you want to read a story about a relationship like that between the two, there is one called False Idol by. It's a good story.
Pairing 13: Valentine and Jocelyn
We already know that this relationship happened, and Valentine did love Jocelyn, and vice versa. I don't think they could have ever gotten back together after they split. Jocelyn wouldn't take him back and Valentine would only try to control her.
Pairing 14: Luke and Jocelyn
I don't like this pairing and honestly I don't really like Jocelyn, but I can see the pairing happen and it does eventually happen in the books. I just thought that Luke was too nice for Jocelyn, he deserves someone better.
