It Can Wait by The_Forgotten_Nobody
Chapters: One-Shot
Genre: Canon AU
Length: Under 5K
Rating:
Teen & Up
Secondary Characters:
Izzy Lightwood, Max Lightwood,
Secondary Pairings: None
Themes: 2×17, 2×18, Alec POV, Angst, Established Relationship, Family, Hurt & Comfort,
Summary:
“How we are doesn’t matter right now. What does is that your brother is hurt and you are in pain. Whatever issues we have can wait. I’m not going to turn away from you now Alexander.”
Carrying the responsibility of shielding everyone from the fallout of their own choices is a terrible burden. And it runs the risk of devolving into paternalism, which–however well-intentioned–eventually breeds resentment. Perhaps sometimes the trick is knowing when to protect, and when to make sure the people you love have what they need to protect themselves, so they can make their own choices–and occasionally take the knocks that come with those choices.
