To many young fans, girls especially, fanfic is the first way to connect with the media they love and transform it into something of their own. It is the way to voice their preferences, what they are most interested in seeing. There are no rules about content and form: fanfiction can be a full-length novela about two characters going grocery shopping. It can be a 500-words-long character study. It is freedom for transformative creation in written form.

Summary:
Four years after the events of the Angel’s Voice, Alec and Magnus have broken up. Both of them have moved on with their professional and personal lives, but no amount of success can fill up that gap for the love they still have for each other. Even if they insist on staying as far away from each other as possible.
That is until an irrefutable invitation comes up. Now, Alec and Magnus have no choice but to work together once again. This collaboration could end up in a complete disaster.
Or, it could end up in them finally finding their way back to each other.
@ashreenao asked: Hey! I once read a fic that was based off Lucifer (the show). So Magnus was Lucifer and Alec was the detective (her name’s escaping me rn). Idk the name though so could you help me find it by any chance?? Thanks
Hi! The majority of what I can find are crossovers where Lucifer and/or Chloe interact with Magnus and Alec in some way. It sounds like you’re looking for a fusion where Magnus and Alec take on their roles instead and, based on what I see on A03, it looks like there is only one fic that fits your description:
Sympathy for the Prince by Ketz
Prince of Hell Magnus Bane, was tired of his life in Hell. Every day was the same; condemned souls being punished for their wrong doings, demons feasting on the worst humanity had to offer, two or three deals with a few greedy humans. It was dull, uneventful. Boring.
So Magnus packed his bags and moved to New York City. As the owner of the lavishing club Pandemonium at the heart of Manhattan, Magnus enjoyed a life without worries for five years, until the fateful night where a former client was murdered on the streets.
It was then that he met no-nonsense Homicide Detective Alec Lightwood, owner of incorruptible morals and the tightest ass Magnus has ever seen. Earth was fun, after all.

I hope that’s what you were looking for!
You face your fear: you allow yourself to be vulnerable. You have to be brave enough to put yourself in a situation in which everything could wrong. Because then, when it doesn’t, the reward will be that much more meaningful.

Summary:
Alec has been Magnus Bane’s private driver for three years now. They have the perfect relationship; good-hearted, mutually supportive of each other, and frankly amicable. Maybe too amicable, in fact, considering they have been sleeping together for the better part of those three years.
However, when Alec receives a surprise offer for another job, that perfect relationship crumbles. It turns out that, without the anchors of a professional bond between them, Alec and Magnus are left to face something they had refused to think of before: their feelings.

Summary:
Reclusive singer Alec Lightwood has been taking some time away from the spotlight for a few years now. He has lost his inspiration, his reason to keep making music.
That is, until his manager, Luke Garroway, asks him to enter the panel of the ridiculous singing competition The Angel’s Voice. Alec only says yes because that means keeping an eye on Clary and Simon. He hates those fixed, degrading TV shows with a burning passion. Hopefully, Alec figures, he’ll get some inspiration back watching newcomers try their luck on TV. Some of them are bound to be good.
It isn’t until Magnus Bane walks on stage, however, that Alec realizes just how right he is.

Summary:
A long time ago, King Valentine, of the rich kingdom of Alicante, attacked the southerner kingdoms. He searched for triumph and annihilation, for uniting the realm under his rule and his alone. Instead of the easy victory, though, the greedy king found defeat and death, for the four kingdoms united for the first time in history, forging the Downworlder Alliance. As a result, the great families of the north were forced to deliver their firstborns to the Kings and Queens of the Downworlder Alliance, and so ensure their fielty and crush any further rebellions before they even sparkled.
Only, boring history lessons had always annoyed the Prince of Darkness and heir to the Kingdom of Edom, Magnus Bane. As the anniversary of his Mark Day arrives and with it the Victory Tournament, he figures the only good thing the Mortal War really brought was his father’s hostage, the quiet Alec Lightwood, eldest son to the once great Lightwoods of Alicante. Good could become great, though. Magnus needs only figure out a way to get that boy away from the practicing arena and into his bed. After all, he couldn’t possibly celebrate his day of honor without a suitable gift, could he?
Watching Alec with his daughter, whispering some sweet joke to her and making her giggle, both of them wrapped up in fluffy blankets, reminded Magnus that humanity, as disgusting and rotten as it was, also had another side. One that was worth preserving and fighting for.
