Kissing Magnus Bane is like discovering that magic, in its rawest form, truly does exist, and then being wrapped inside of it. It’s sparks of hope and attraction and something cardinal that Alec doesn’t have a name for but feels to his very core.

“Yup.”

Summary:
[Prompt] 43. “Are you drunk?” & 3. “It’s three in the morning.”
“Not so straight laced now,” Alec proclaims triumphantly. He swings forward and has to catch himself on the back of a chair.
“Nothing about you is straight, darling,” Magnus teases.
“That’s for sure,” Jace snorts. “He’s away from you for one night, and it’s all, ‘I miss Magnus. This is Magnus’ favorite drink. Did you know we had our first date here? I should text Magnus.’” He says this in what could be construed as an impression of Alec but sounds more like a sappy teenager — which, certainly sounds like his lovesick Alexander.

Summary:
His forehead was scrunched in concentration and Alec was reminded that, unlike himself, Magnus didn’t have a stamina rune to protect him from exhaustion. He didn’t seem too affected, though, and his attacks were only getting stronger, as if he was getting angrier and angrier every second the vile creatures spent ruining their night.
They moved in sync, finding a perfect rhythm in each other’s movements, flowing gracefully around one another in a deadly dance of combat.
