* VitriolicBestBuds: As noted in Jace's entry above, the two boys have this dynamic. As much as they snipe at one another and claim they really, '''really''' don't like each other (and only tolerate one another for Clary's benefit), they still will go well beyond the bare minimum to take care of each other ([[spoiler:with Jace giving blood to Simon, and Simon keeping the fact that said blood made him a Daywalker a secret so that vampires won't go after Jace to become Daywalkers themselves, among other examples]]). The faux hatred really isn't fooling anyone at this point.

* InsultOfEndearment: Following Jace's lead, the Shadowhunters tend to consistently refer to Simon as "the mundane", despite him proving himself useful (and at one point saving their lives). Later on it gets switched to "vampire".
