NuggetsOfDemigodWisdom: Thank you for your review of the first chapter. I'm glad you found it interesting and liked the characterization.
Firstly, I'm sorry this is a short chapter. I finished reading 'Lord of Shadows' today, and like most people, I ended up an emotional mess (I don't normally cry at the end of a book, and yet I found myself in tears once I had finished) and it made me want to give Livvy so much more love. That girl needs it! As a result, I've added Livvy into the story. She's taken it upon herself to get Ty and Kit together, as she's the only one who realizes they have feelings. As I'm still working out her exact role in the story further than the original idea, this is more of an 'introducing Livvy to the story' chapter.
Secondly, if anyone, like me have any emotions they have yet to deal with because of 'Lord of Shadows' and they feel they need to talk, they are more than welcome to privately message me should they need to.
Thirdly, If anyone liked or didn't like anything about the story, of if there is anything they want to see in future chapters, let me know in either a review or a private message
Forth and finally, I own nothing but the plot.
***Livvy P.O.V***
It took a few days for Kit to come out of the room that he had hidden himself in when he first arrived at the Institute. He was still in denial about the fact that he was a Herondale (or Shadowhunter for that matter) and seemed to be on a mission to find stuff he could steal so he could run back to the shadow market to steal, but the fact that he had left his room was something. Beneath all of his bravado, and determination, there was a vulnerability about Kit that made me want to protect him. Well that and the fact Ty seemed to have an interest in him (Ty very rarely took an interest in anyone, meaning that when he did, it meant something).
Without really discussing things with Ty (the perks of being twins, close ones at that, is that there is rarely a need for a discussion for things, as you already know where the other one stands on the matter) Kit joined us in whatever we were doing, meaning that we went from a pair to a trio. There was something about Kit that made things feel as though he had always been a part of us: that we had always been a group. The first real thing we did as a three, was spy on the centurions after they had arrived. None of us wanted to be running around the Institute carrying towels for them (we are Shadowhunters, not servants for goodness sake) meaning we decided that it would be a better use of our time to spy. Anyway: Kit was still getting used to being here and being around Shadowhunters, and Ty didn't like large crowds, especially when they were full of people he didn't know, so us being slightly away from them really was the best option.
After that first introduction into being around Ty and I, Kit became a more permanent fixture into what we did. So much so, whenever a job needed doing, it would be the three of us that would go off and do it. The more time Kit spent with us, the more I was becoming certain of two very important bits of information. One was that Kit was embracing the fact that he was both a Herondale and a Shadowhunter, even if he didn't necessarily realise it, and two, Kit and Ty were obviously developing feelings (beyond those of friendship) for each other, and as I was the only one who knew it. Ty used his headphones less when Kit was around, and Kit seemed to trust Ty when he wouldn't with anyone else. Armed with this information, I knew I needed to do something (by the angel they both needed it) to get them together. The real question was: How?
