Magnus carried centuries of hurt with him into this relationship. Letting go of his fears is sometimes harder than he wants it to be. He wants it to be easy to share every part of himself with Alec, but wanting something and being able to do it are two very different things.
Magnus has stopped telling Alec that Alec constantly surprises him. He stopped when they stopped, because he’d surprised him in painful ways. But that’s not what holds him back now.
The 3A Episode Collection Event continues today! Taking place on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, it will feature fic recs concerning the events of 3×02 and speculation concerning 3×03.

Calling all Shadowhunters fic writers! I need your feedback for Author Appreciation Day 2.0!
Last year, this blog dedicated a single day to show the fandom’s appreciation for our amazing fic writers on National Author’s Day. Numerous readers and fic writers participated by leaving supportive and appreciative messages, which were then shared with the fandom on November 1, 2017.
I am definitely planning on making this an annual event, as I think it helps bring some positivity to the fandom and highlights a portion of our incredible artists who I feel often go underappreciated. This year, I want to do something a bit different and one of my ideas goes far beyond what I did last year. It would take a lot of planning, so I want to know if there’s interest in it first.
If you write any fanfiction for the Shadowhunters fandom – whether it be for Malec, Clace, Sizzy, Saia, Clizzy, Climon, Saphael, Jimon, BrOtps, character-centric fics, family fics, or something else – please take part in the polls that are currently live on our Twitter account and will remain open until April 7th.
Question #1: Would you feel comfortable providing a mailing address to a private form so something small could be physically sent to you? The information would NEVER be made public. It would only be used for sending you something showing the fandom’s appreciation.
Question #2: Instead of something being physically sent to you, would you prefer that there was an option where the object showing the fandom’s appreciation could be sent as an attachment via email? Again, this address would NEVER be made public.

The 3A Episode Collection Event continues through the month. This weekly, three-day event, spanning Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, will feature fic recs related to the previous week’s episode, as well as any predictions based on the upcoming episode’s promotional material. It will run throughout the entire airing of Season 3A. For more information, please click here.
i’m fairly new to the malec fandom and also am an old hat in another super popular fandom. can i just say it’s wonderful that you take the time to do these roundups? i especially love that you highlight new writers. it’s great to see such support!
Welcome to the fandom! I hope you’re enjoying it so far 🙂
This is so sweet, thank you! The round-ups take a lot of time, but I enjoy being able to look back on a single month’s milestones after the fact. I also think it’s incredibly important to support fandom writers and have tried to do that to the best of my ability, both with this and other aspects of the blog. Without them, their creativity, and their love for these characters, the fandom would be a very different – and, in my opinion, a much less enjoyable – place. They deserve all of the love.
