“Well that’s a relief,” Magnus says dryly.
Alec laughs. The sound echoes in Magnus’s ears.

Updates & Reorganization

I have a day off of work, so I’ll be periodically making updates and changes to the blog’s pages today. There’s quite a bit that I want to do, so I probably won’t be completely finished with it by tonight. However, I will make sure that everything is working before I log off. Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Summary:

“I won’t tell,” Max is saying, and Alec is already halfway out of the bed when the child’s voice answers with a small: “Okay.”

There are a few moments of silence, interrupted by the raffling of sheets, and then: “I like the room.”

More silence, and: “It’s just too quiet.”

Alec glances at Magnus, worrying his lower lip between his teeth.

Max says: “You can stay with me,” sleep dragging his words a bit, “Dad and Papa say I’m never quiet.”

Magnus and Alec both snort.

Summary:

Magnus Bane turned up on the steps of the NYC Institute when he was ten years old with no memories and nothing on him but the clothes on his back, three runes, and a stele. Fifteen years later, he’s one of the best Shadowhunters in the world, but he’s never solved the mystery of where he came from. When he starts having visions from his past, he consults the High Warlock of Brooklyn, Alec Lightwood, for help.

Despite the fact that Lightwood has a reputation of being a recluse who hates meeting with anybody, he’s more than a little flustered when greeted by the most gorgeous Shadowhunter he’s ever seen … who promptly asks him out on a date.

Summary:

“Asmodeus.” Recognition dawned on Isabelle’s face. “One of the princes of hell.”

“Of Edom specifically,” Asmodeus corrected.

“He’s your father?” Jace asked, shocked.

Alec growled, Asmodeus didn’t deserve to be in Magnus presence, didn’t deserve to lay eyes on him. Magnus had shared the story of his parentage with Alec, and while he knew Magnus had come from Asmodeus’ blood. He was no father to Magnus.

@sterek-malec-karamel replied to your post: 

did you have fun on your holiday?

I did 🙂 I spent a lot of time with my family and my significant other and his family. After dealing with long-distance the last five months, it was so nice to spend two solid weeks together. And the success of the conference was an added bonus. Thanks so much for asking! I hope everything is going well for you too!
