Blue Moon by AraHinam

Max Lightwood-Bane,

Rafael Lightwood-Bane 
Secondary Pairings: None
Additional Relationships: Alec Lightwood & Max Lightwood-Bane,

Magnus Bane & Rafael Lightwood-Bane

Themes: Angst,

Domesticity,

Established Relationship,

Family,

Fluff,

Kids, Magnus POV

Summary:

For centuries, Magnus being awake at 3am usually meant one too many shots of vodka and the strong possibility of ending up in bed with a stranger. Even after he had met Alec it was much of the same. Alec wasn’t a stranger, he was the love of his life, and there was less alcohol involved sure, but still a gorgeous man in his bed. Or his couch. Or his shower. Magnus wasn’t picky.

Now being up at 3am meant something drastically different.

He wanted to spend a lifetime’s worth of mornings waking up beside Alec, just like this, wherever life took them, because Alec was home. Magnus had spent a lifetime searching, and in Alec he had found where his life and his heart belonged.

Shadowhunters Fic Writers: Sign Up Here to Receive a Personalized Thank You Card!

“When fic authors receive comments, they know, clearly, that someone enjoyed their writing. And while leaving kudos on a fanfic also allows you to say that you enjoy what you’ve read, as a fanfic author, I can tell you that there’s nothing sweeter than getting comments on my fics. I love reading them, and knowing that people enjoy my writing when I do.”

– icecat45, The Importance of Commenting on Fanfiction

As a fic writer, you have spent countless hours thinking and writing about plot, character development, important dynamics, and the evolution of romantic relationships. You have taken time away from your other responsibilities and your personal life in order to create and share wonderful works of fiction with the rest of us.

Collectively and individually, you have all given so much to the Shadowhunters fandom. Now the fandom wants to give back to you.

For this year’s Author Appreciation Day event, readers and/or writers have the opportunity to write a personalized thank you message to an author that they are assigned to through a sign-up and selection process. Once all of the messages have been submitted, I will have thank you cards printed and mailed or PDFed and emailed to the author based on their preference. Similar to comments, this is a tangible and personal way for members of the fandom to interact and show their appreciation for fic writers and their work.

If you would like to receive a personalized thank you card, please sign up using this form. It will remain open until May 15th at 9:00 PM EST.

For more information on this event overall, please visit the Author Appreciation Day Page.

If you have questions or concerns, please read the Event Guidelines and Sign-Up Basics included below the cut. If your question is not addressed, please feel free to contact me here.

Anonymous asked: Hi there! I’ve seen the author appreciation event post and this is such a good idea! I have a question though, I don’t think I’ve seen an answer anywhere, is it possible to send a thank you card or smth to an author who hasn’t signed up for it but whom I really want to do something for? Thanks for your answer and for your hard work with this blog! 😀

Hi! I’m really glad that you like the idea of Author Appreciation Day! I’m very excited about it 🙂

Unfortunately, for practical purposes, the only ways that I will be sending the thank you cards will be via mail or email. I liked the idea of it being something more tangible than a comment or message, which is why I’d love to be able to mail a lot of them, but I realize some may not be comfortable giving out that information and opened up the email option as well. I did not want to post JPGs of the cards on Tumblr or Twitter, because I really want this to be a personal experience and felt that that may not be as organic if they were going to be made public. (Of course, authors are more than welcome to share their cards once they receive them. That is completely up to them. I just did not feel that it was my right to make that decision for them).

Because these are the two options that I will be using, if an author does not sign up, then I have no way of knowing their contact information and, by extension, no way of knowing how to get their card to them. However, if you know they have a Tumblr and/or Twitter account, you could perhaps tag your favorite author(s) so they can see the event information and ask if they would be interested in participating because you would like to write to them specifically. Some authors may not want to take part in it and that is completely okay. I figured sign-ups would be the easiest way to determine those who wanted to receive a card and those who did not. 

I hope this makes sense. If it doesn’t or if you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to me.
