Dominic Sherwood: The fans speak on why we ship for Clace

We’ve spent a lot of time in recent months talking about how insane it is that Shadowhunters was cancelled – and how even more crazy it is that it hasn’t been saved yet. While we’re all still fighting to #SaveShadowhunters, it’s high time we took a break from the activist duties to celebrate the reason why we’re all so hooked on the shows’ characters.

We’ve talked a lot about the LGBT powerhouse that is Malec, but when it comes to Shadowhunters ships, we’ve never spoken of the love that is Clace. Clace is our girl Clary Fray (Katherine McNamara) and ya boy Jace Herondale (Dominic Sherwood). Love hasn’t been easy for this dynamic duo; they’ve faced random demon attacks, injuries, and eventually, in the polarizing finale, a full memory wipe!

We turned over this piece to the people who know Clace the best: Shadowhunters’s fans. Here’s why they (and we) are absolutely head over heels for Clace.

Clace epitomises a passion and bond that you feel in your gut and then your heart, like a physical pain.  It is unbreakable, no matter how much you might deny it and you have to give in to it, no matter the consequences, because that person means more than the air you breathe.

I love Clace because they are the definition of what I believe to be love. 

Patient, persevering and never thinks evil. 

More than a feeling, it is a connection of two souls meeting one another. 

A love that is not selfish, but always willing to share, life, fears, dreams, joys.Jace and Clary have taught us all about how love can be liberating and transformative. 

And of course, the incomparable chemistry of Dom and Kat that made us lose our breath a few times.

I love #Clace because they went through all kinds of hell both individually & together & they never gave up on each other through any of it. They were tested more than anyone else on the show, but they never became cruel or bitter but rather they became  kinder & more compassionate. No matter how many times they were torn apart, their love for each other kept growing & becoming stronger & more passionate. 

They’re also really good for each other. They encourage each other to grow & develop, they support each other through the highest of highs to the lowest of lows & never allow each other to give up. They understand the horrible ways in which a person can be shattered & the incredible strength it takes to put yourself back together. 

Clace is a true power couple who make each other stronger through the incredible love, respect & dedication they have for each other. I’ve truly never loved a couple the way I love #Clace. They are incredible & they deserve so much more recognition than they get. 

Another thing I should add: both of them never really felt like anyone truly saw them for who they were & then they met each other & for the first time they had someone who truly saw them & who they were. 

They opened each other’s hearts in a way neither of them had ever experienced, but it was much more than first love, it was the soul mate connection & the beginning of a relationship meant to last no matter what gets in the way. They give meaning to the phrase #MeantToBe #ClaceForever

Because they fight for their love & each other against all odds. Because they see into the core of the other through the facade. Because their love is so raw & pure & they keep lifting each other up when they fall. #ClaceForever #SaveShadowhunters

I ♡ #Clace because their love is stronger than anything, they support each other no matter what happens, they would literally die for each other, but at the same time they respect & strengthen each other individually and aren’t afraid to call each other out if necessary. And last but not least #Clace are a beautiful couple with a roller coaster love story and have you seen their chemistry?

Concetta Scarlato‏ 

I love #clace because their love is stronger than all those who had tried to separate her.  The two have a strong soul love that cannot be described. They have huge respect for each other… ❤

Aliza//TCA for Dom‏ 

Clace is one of those couples that radiates strength and positivity when they’re together. They empower each other, are loyal to each other and would do anything to protect their significant other. 

They’ve been through so much and yet are so brave to love fiercely. They’re not afraid of the world, whether together or not. They’re not afraid of showing the world how powerful they really are and what it is like to be kind to everyone around. They trust each other enough to know they wouldn’t do anything wrong without a reason.

KatriinaX‏ 

I love Clace because they strongly love each other but also are strong individually. And they have amazing chemistry.

Jill Chisholm‏ 

I think everyone wants to believe there is someone out there in this world meant just for them. Someone who’ll love you for who you truly are, the beautiful & ugly sides. Someone that no matter what, will protect your heart and you know you’ll never be alone.

#Clace represents how powerful and beautiful love should be for everyone. They give hope that kind of love really exists to those that may not have experienced it (yet). Put that together with Kat and Dom and you have absolute perfection. #Shadowhunters

Ashley Taylor‏ 

Clace’s love is untouchable. They’ve been to hell and back, and their love has been stronger than ever. Even the angels themselves don’t have enough power to separate them.

Mandy‏ 

Soulmates, true love are what Clace are. If only this kind of love existed in real life. I love #Clace because of their love for each other it’s so strong and despite everything their love was stronger than the angels spite. True love , also the chemistry and how they fight for each other and care for each other. An amazing love story

Alysonlowrie‏

VickytoriaQ  

#clace fan since day one! No matter what happened, their love always brought them together. As Jace said, I truly believe their love was stronger than the angels spite!

WendyMills‏ 

I love Clace because they accept each others flaws and imperfections, they support each other no matter what, they respect the other’s thoughts and feelings and would literally die for one another. Their love is infinite.

Alona‏ 

O I love #Clace because chemistry between them,and that strong connection,because of their epic love story and they look perfect together

Marina Lueder‏ 

I love the #Clace relationship because it’s real, it’s vulnerable, it’s raw. The lows are low so the highs are extra sweet. They are individually strong people who come together and make each other stronger. They never try to change the other. And hello….chemistry!

There was a chemistry between them from the beginning, even when they thought they were siblings was the love they had to shut away, but she was always there ? Jace has not given way to her side even in this 1 year as promised, and in the end he gets it … 

by the power of their dear again ? they share many things, because they share evil experiences from which they have ?? #clace #SaveShadowhunters #Shadowhunters fought back

I #Clace because their Love is true.

shadowhunters save it !!!‏ 

Because they just amazing and they both had so much to deal with they don’t deserve this ending,they deserve a better one!! And they are perfect together

Windsong‏ 

They meet in a non descriptive way, their love goes through every obstacle that can be thrown their way.   We don’t get to see the sunny side of their relationship, We see more of heart break, but They prevail.  

Where their love story is built on tragedy, others trials are easy.
