Anonymous said: hey uh the index page to navigate tags isnt working bc i was in the mood for pining fics lol

Yes, I’m aware. I noticed it when I was queuing recs tonight. Something randomly went wrong with the coding for some reason, but I think I have it fixed now. (You’ll also notice that the page is different. I’ve been working on transitioning into new customized pages and it made more sense to fix it there and have that one go live than have to fix it twice). Go ahead and give it a try and if you still have problems, please let me know.

At fifteen, Magnus is cursed. Or maybe, since he’s the son of a god, his life had been cursed from the day he was born.

Asmodeus covets him, wants Magnus to follow him, to pray to him for aid… expects Magnus to love him. But Magnus sees the magic in his father’s eyes for what it is, destruction and fear and pain, and so, Magnus refuses. In a fit of rage, furious that a son of his would choose humanity over him, Asmodeus curses Magnus.

Undaunted, Magnus decides he’ll make his own future, that his choices shall remain his. He lives his life in peace, not letting his visions of a burning city scare him or decide his path. Until… one morning, he sees Alexander’s face and knows that his fate is determined.

Magnus will never let him go.

“I was flattered,” he admitted. “Not enough to seriously consider it though.” He shrugged, watching Magnus carefully, and picked up his own glass again.

Magnus looked up at him then with a sharpened gaze. “Why not?”

“Many things, to be honest. I’d miss too many people. There’s a lot of work to do here still. Part of me wondered if they were offering it to me to get me away from New York.”

“From me.” Magnus’ voice was flat with no inflection and Alec winced. He moved to sit next to Magnus and put his glass down on the table so he could take one of Magnus’ hands, his thumb rubbing at one of his rings.
