@highladyofgothamcity asked: Do you have any about Malec’s first time, more fluffy than smutty preferably

Hi there! You can view fics that feature that thematic tag by using the First Time tag on the Tags Index page. If there’s Fluff also featured in the fic, it will be included in the list of themes within the rec as well. 

Here are a few to get you started: 

I hope that helps!

Anonymous asked: Hi! thanks for answering. I was referring to that and more specifically in choosing the fics? Like, do you go into the tag, you read them, etc? Or how?

It really just depends. If I have an event that I’m preparing for (i.e., Halloween), I’ll search for fics on Archive of Our Own that match that theme.

It took some time to figure out how to use the search and filter features and sometimes I still have to play around with it, but they’re fantastic resources. 

When I’m just posting regularly, it just depends on what I want to read at any given time. I try to alternate between different genres (Human AU, Canon AU, Crossover, etc.), but otherwise anything goes.

I’ll look through recently-posted fics, read fics by authors that I subscribe to when their alerts come via email, and search for tags depending on what I want to read. People are also welcome to send in recommendations, although that doesn’t necessarily mean that the fics will be featured or that they will be featured in a timely fashion. (For example, it’s November 10th and I’m creating recs for November 28th right now, so anything new that is posted or recommended will take some time to show up on the blog).

I hope that answers your question 🙂

Anonymous asked: hey there! 🙂 I was wondering, do you have a personal system for the recs?

Hi there! I’m not exactly sure what you mean. If you’re referring to me personally creating the tagging system for the recs, then yes. If that’s not what you meant, feel free to reach out again. I’d be happy to answer 🙂

Summary:

In Alec’s world, one’s ultimate goal in life was rarely something as mundane and trivial as getting your dream job, or winning the lottery. No child grew up wishing only that they’d become an astronaut one day; no one grew up wishing for just money.

No, things like that were too common, too out of one’s control. Children didn’t want to beg for things they didn’t know they had a chance with. In Alec’s world, people wished for their Soulmate. For their colour.

*****

When Alec was ten years old, he realised the colour he’d been missing was one called ‘gold’. Izzy had told him of its beauty.

He’d never understood what she meant until now.

Magnus is idly tracing shapes over Alec’s heart. His head is a comfortable weight on Alec’s chest and Alec almost thinks the crick in his neck come morning would be worth it if he didn’t have to move in a few minutes.

Alec has trouble deciding on his favorite color.
