If someone were to ask him to think back and pinpoint the exact moment he fell in love with Magnus, he would come up short. There were so many moments, so many glances and laughs and smiles and conversations in which Alec’s heart had felt like it was begging to jump out of his chest and attach itself to Magnus’. It had been quick, that much he knew for sure.

Summary:

“You two are made for each other, you’ll figure out a way to make it work,” Jace says with an assurance that is oddly comforting. “In the meantime, I don’t have a magical solution to solve the problem but I definitely have one to solve it temporarily.”

“Let me guess,” Alec deadpans. “Getting drunk?”

“Yup.”

A.k.a. Drunk Alec returns for a third part because Drunk Alec is Best Alec.

Based on the tumblr prompt: “Magnus jumping out of a cake to surprise a gloomy Alec on his birthday.”
