Magnus gave a nod of his head. Then, a smirk grew on his face. “Pretty boy,” he started, and Alec quickly realised where this was going. “Get your team ready.”

“And to think I thought I’d never hear that again,” Alec bemoaned.

Magnus just stared at him.

Alec raised a brow in inquiry.

The warlock grinned. “You’re blushing.”

Internally, Alec cursed the day he’d ever met the man.

AKA a Battle!Malec fic featuring badass boyfriends, plenty of bickering and far too many innuendos.

Summary:

“Help me. I need your strength.”

Words uttered in desperation to the beautiful but troubled young Shadowhunter that had suddenly appeared by his side, who would probably never understand the gravity of what Magnus was asking from him.

But maybe this time would be different. For once Alexander Lightwood said “take what you need” and offered up his hand, his deep gaze seemed to tell him that he understood exactly the cost for Magnus would be.

—-

A warlock loves intensely, shattering themselves over and over again. Until they can find someone who will make them whole again. Magnus somehow knew, it was always going to be him.

Let the Clocks Be Reset and the Pendulums Held by ohprongs*

5K – 10K
Rating: Teen & Up
Secondary Characters:

Maia Roberts
Secondary Pairings: None
Themes:

Battle Couple,

Domesticity,

Drained Magic,

Established Relationship, Family,

Summary:

The docks aren’t quiet — Magnus can hear dockworkers shouting to each other in the distance and the commotion of moving heavy freight around the area — but in their immediate vicinity, just behind a container, it’s almost silent.

He hears the scrape of metal as Clary unsheathes her seraph sword up ahead and the low rumble of a werewolf’s growl. Eyes flash green in the darkness.

His heartbeat is thick in his ears, thudding with anticipation. He’s ready to fight and ready to win — who are these people, coming into his city and killing his friends?

Magnus measures his breathing.

In. Out.

(or, battle!magnus ft. alec looking after him afterwards)

Summary:

It was over. They’d won. Valentine was dead and the Downworld was safe once again.

It was supposed to be over… so how did he end up there – barely able to keep himself conscious and upright even in the position he was in, groveling pathetically on his knees.

It was supposed to be over, but instead Alexander was going to die. He was going to be ripped apart by the demon barreling towards him and Magnus could do nothing but watch helplessly as another person he loved died before his very eyes.
