The look on Magnus’s face is one Alec doesn’t think he’ll ever forget; his mouth slightly open, eyes wide and bright with tears. He’s looking at Alec like he’s a miracle, like he just told him he single handedly hung up every star in the sky just for Magnus to see; as if he didn’t know Alec would do anything for him.

Summary:

Magnus clenched his jaw but didn’t comment on it. He knew Ragnor was right and he also knew that Raphael had a hand in planning this interventional get-away. His friends were worried about him and Magnus knew he at least had to try to finally get his shit together—if not for himself, then for his beloved friends.

How mosquito bites and lack of proper sanitary installations would help him do so…Magnus couldn’t fathom.

Relaxed, clad in muggle clothes with a book in his hand, he didn’t seem like the disciplined teacher who both inspired and infuriated students, nor the dignified pureblood noble his parents had raised him to be. He was just Alec, the kind, awkward young man who had stumbled into Magnus’ life a few years ago, like an answer to a question Magnus hadn’t even thought to ask.
