Summary:

Alec may not realise it yet, perhaps it is a matter of the restrictive Nephilim society or something more internalised, but there is something between them. Something that makes Magnus want to do stupid things.

Like kiss him on the forehead while he’s sleeping off one too many cocktails. And ask him out on a date.


otherwise known as serendi wrote a headcanon on forehead kisses and i completely ran away with it ❤

Summary:

“I check in from time to time. Some of those times just so happened to be when you and the Lightwood boy were in some rather … compromising positions,” Ragnor threw his hands up into the air, “Or maybe I’m just a lecher. I don’t really care which you believe, I’m dead.”

“Did you seriously astral project into my living room just so you could mock my sex life?”

Magnus needs a friend (or three) after his fight with Alec to help steer him in the right direction. Should he trust the Seelie Queen? Should he get back together with Alec?

One thing’s for certain, Magnus is gonna need another drink.

Summary:

“What do you want from me, Jace? I’m sad. But I’m still head of this Institute, and we’re still on the brink of war. I don’t have time to just be sad, so I figured why not multitask with a little target practice,” he took another swig from the open can beside him and placed it back down on the floor.

Alec fumbled around on the ground looking for another arrow. When he found one, he struggled to get it into position with his bow. This wasn’t the Alec that Jace was used to fighting with. This wasn’t the highly skilled archer who could take out a Prince of Hell with a single shot. This was a shell of a warrior who needed help.

Or the one where Jace is a good parabatai and comforts Alec at Hunter’s Moon after his fight with Magnus. Cause if Jace expects Alec to talk to him about Clary in 2×19, he better have talked to Alec about Magnus first!

Unhappy Ending

 

Summary:

Ironic. That the thing Magnus feared the most was also what Alec had been afraid of. What he’d always somewhat known, in that little part of his mind that he tried so hard to silence. The voice that being with Magnus had almost silenced. That he, Alexander Lightwood, was both too much and not enough for the person he loved.

Too much: too demanding, too needy, to inexperienced, too apt to making mistakes, too draining, too useless.

Not enough: not good enough, at being a boyfriend, at being a leader, at being an ally. Not strong enough for Magnus to want to lean on, not open enough for Magnus to want to pour himself into. The little bit he had – which was everything he had – wasn’t enough to keep them together, wasn’t worth the effort.

He wasn’t worth the effort.
