So on Cassandra Clare's tumbler...tumber...no....ah tumblr ( I can never get that right), a little snippet of Clockwork Princess was released!
Here it is:
Will
rose slowly to his feet. He could not believe he was doing what he was
doing, but it was clear that he was, clear as the silver rim around the
black of Jem’s eyes. “If there is a life after this one,” he said, “let
me meet you in it, James Carstairs.”
“There
will be other lives.” Jem held his hand out, and for a moment, they
clasped hands, as they had done during their parabatai ritual, reaching
across twin rings of fire to interlace their fingers with each other.
“The world is a wheel,” he said. “When we rise or fall, we do it
together.”
Will
tightened his grip on Jem’s hand, which felt thin as twigs in his.
“Well, then,” he said, through a tight throat, “since you say there will
be another life for me, let us both pray I do not make as colossal a
mess of it as I have this one.” - Cassie's tumblr post
