Summary:

Alec could pinpoint the moment that the change occurred. The moment he felt calmer in Magnus’ presence than anyone else’s. He knew it was happening, he had no intention of stopping, he just prayed it would last.

War, infidelity, death – terrible things are a part of life, but that doesn’t mean we don’t keep moving forward. Happiness in the midst of tragedy – any tragedy – isn’t selfish, Alec. It doesn’t belittle the pain you feel, it just helps make it bearable.

Summary:

The night of Max’s rune ceremony, Magnus finds Alec on his balcony again. (Episode coda for 2×08 – Alec goes to Magnus after hearing Maryse’s news.)

Izzy is a hurricane; Alec is a tree, rooted to the ground and stuck, buffeted by the wind but unable to chase it to better places. Izzy would fight his corner, if he asked. She would, even if he didn’t, resigned to the soil and the dirt.
