Summary:

Magnus cast his gaze around the group before him and rolled his eyes. “Oh please, don’t act so surprised,” he said, with a haughty sniff that may or may not have been genuine, and he brushed invisible debris from the right shoulder of Raphael’s embroidered suit jacket. “Where did you think his impeccable dress sense came from?”

A collection of stories about Magnus the Downworlder Dad, his Alexander, and his (their) Downworlder sons.

(Spoilers up to Episode 2×13).

He never expected to have something like this again, barely even dared to hope. Although, again might be the wrong word. He has been in love before, too often and too easily, some might say, but this is decidedly different. The way Alec makes him feel, fireworks going off in his chest whenever he’s near, everything and everyone else blurring to gray as soon as Alec enters a room―that’s something else. It’s frightening. It’s exhilarating. It makes him want to smile for no reason.

Summary:

As cliché as it sounds, timing truly can be everything. What if Alec hadn’t had a chance to propose to Lydia yet? What if Isabelle figured out what was going on much sooner and was the one to try and help Hodge when the Institute was breached? What if Hodge was knocked out and she was left alone to fend off the Forsaken? What if she took a crushing blow that left her unable to fight back and Magnus was the one who ended up saving her life? And not just once, but yet again when they realize that Isabelle has been poisoned and needs his magical expertise in order to save her?

Timing can be everything, and yet somehow, things are still just as complicated for Alec.

He can’t help but think about how much Alec has changed. Jace has only ever wanted the best for Alec, and seeing him here with Magnus, being affectionate despite Jace’s presence in the loft speaks volumes. It’s nice to know someone loves Alec – heart and soul. Jace wouldn’t want anything less for his brother.
