I enjoyed the story, Gar. Thanks for the rec.
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Apparently the Mortal Instruments stuff has a similar premise to her 90s Dark Hunters novels, and the marketing push that rebranded it as Shadowhunters for the new TV series was close enough to cause confusion.

I think it was Cassandra Claire (but I may be wrong) who had a fanfic story where every line (or almost every) of dialouge was ripped from a tv show, movie, or book. There was stuff from Red Dwarf and Buffy the Vampire Slayer and all kinds of things. Not obscure quotes either but recognizable ones.
Someone found it and there were claims of "oh I must have just heard them and absorbed it and not realized it" and then later a author's note about how it was a "Game" for her readers to find the quotes and she listed the sources.

Yep! That's her. Also, she lifted stuff wholesale from Pamela Dean.
