walking in daylight


003. aberration; (a state or condition markedly different from the norm)


It's a lonely thing, having more power than anyone else.

Only in one way, of course. I'm definitely not the strongest vampire out there, or the fastest, or — as Clary'd probably be happy to tell me — even the smartest. But I can do something that none of these people can do. These people, who've lived for centuries or even millennia, and have seen more of the world that I ever wanted to. These creatures.

I can pass for a normal person, more or less.

Normal has never been so out of the ordinary.

So freakish.

And never, ever so lonely.
