Alec spends the time thinking about the past year. While Magnus had been the catalyst for his change, ultimately it was Alec who had taken his life by the horns and set it on the track he wanted. He was more comfortable with himself, more confident, than he’d ever been and a large part of it was due to coming out.

Summary:

Alec is just thinking about how much he loves his job, bureaucratic headaches notwithstanding, when he abruptly stops in his tracks.

There, on the corner of his desk, is a little rainbow colored flag in a black coffee mug. It’s just one thing among a dozen pencils, pens, and assorted markers, but Alec’s gaze is glued to it.

Izzy surprises Alec and Alec reflects on the past year.

Summary:

“Happy Pride!” Clary cries, throwing her arm in the air and releasing hundreds of small glittery rainbows over the both of them. Well, over Magnus and mostly in Alec’s face.

Somehow Alec manages to look stoic and nonplussed at the same time; like he’s become used to not knowing why Clary is doing something and is refusing now to even ask the question.

It’s Alec’s first Pride – once he figures out what Pride actually is.

So stop seeing who you are as some kind of insurmountable obstacle to be overcome. It’s not. The right person won’t care, Magnus. The right person will just view it as part of all the millions of things that make up you.

Summary:

Sometimes it’s hard to have pride in yourself, when everyone around you is kicking you down. Sometimes you need some help believing in yourself again. Sometimes all it takes is a hand to pull you back up.

Summary:

Almost a year ago, he wasn’t even out. Back then, he had been so scared of voicing all his truths to anyone but Isabelle. Looking back on it now, he doesn’t really know what he was afraid of, but he also knows that he came out at just the right time. Even if it was in front of the entire Clave and his family. He thinks about all of that, and even he has to give himself credit for how far he’s come.

He’s going to Pride. With his boyfriend. Who he loves, and who loves him back. It takes everything for Alec not to laugh at how the tables have turned from where they were last year.

or, Alec and Magnus and the gang go to Pride.

Alec’s mind lingers on the colours, the man in his arms a rainbow, a spectrum. He wonders how he never saw in colour before, but maybe he needed this – this man, who seems to be every colour at once, whose spirit shines bright from within – to overwhelm him, oversaturate him, wake him up.
