Alec’s first year at Hogwarts isn’t off to a great start, sorted into a house his parents despise and separated from his best friend. Magnus’ newfound exposure to magic is as thrilling as it is hard to manage, and it seems he’s already managed to make an enemy of his too-blonde housemate.

If it weren’t for their clashing personalities, they’d probably get along great.

Teen & Up

Secondary Characters: Jace Wayland, Valentine Morgenstern  
Secondary Pairings: None
Themes: 2×12, Alec POV, Angst, Domesticity, Emotional/Psychological Abuse, Established Relationship, Hurt & Comfort

Summary:

Alec stood up, keeping a careful distance and being sure to move slowly as he approached. “Magnus, I am so sorry. For everything you had to go through.”

Magnus’ eyes never moved from the spot on the floor he was staring at. He shook his head slightly, eyebrows furrowed deeply. “That agony rune…” He paused, taking a moment to swallow. His face was drawn in so much pain that Alec had to look away for a moment. He immediately punished himself by digging his fingernails into his palm. It was selfish to worry about his pain. He had certainly inflicted more than enough on Magnus that he had to atone for. “Made me remember things that I spent…centuries trying to forget.”
