Having the freedom and means to take characters/plots that you love and incorporate them into something new is such a wonderful way to enjoy and interact with fiction. And even more fun that that is getting to share what you make with other people who get as much enjoyment from it as you. It’s an incredible thing to be able to write something that I get to see others read and enjoy. When it becomes something special to someone else, it’s just a wonderful feeling!

Summary:

Alec and Magnus were taking a big step in their relationship tonight. Magnus was taking Alec to Pandemonium as the official boyfriend of the club owner, to sit with him on his metaphorical throne.

Magnus was absolutely thrilled. Owning the club was one of the best investments he had ever made, for the sake of both his happiness and networking.

Alec was excited, he really was, for Magnus’s sake. He knew how much this meant to him, and he was looking forward to assimilating into this aspect of Magnus’s life. However, he was unbelievably nervous. Living in the institute had definitely not fostered an interest in partying and dancing and having the time to be so lighthearted. He was bad at drinking and dancing, and he was not good with smoothly navigating overwhelming social situations. But Magnus… god, anything he could do with Magnus, that they could do together, was something he wanted.

Summary:

He was in mourning.

He mourned what he’d lost—his magic, his immortality, and his identity. He also mourned what had never been his—a father who didn’t seek to take from him, an infinite life of love with the man of his dreams, and a place in which he had never known this kind of loss.

“I’m not who I used to be,” Magnus whispered, looking himself in the eye.
