🌈Happy Pride, y'all! 🌈

Behold, my gayest creation:

(Click the image for higher quality!)

I had the opportunity to draw the Pride Month version of the @malecdiscordserver's banner! It was an absolute struggle, but I'm super proud of myself for how it turned out and for getting it done on time. I learned so much while making this, it's ridiculous.

Please let me know what you think! 🖤

[half-bakedboy]

Had the privilege of creating the @malecdiscordserver banner for the month of August. Magnus is having a brat summer while Alec is just happy to be there with him 💚

All content must be brand new and never before posted to any forum. All content must be polished and finished. No unfinished works or WIPs that you plan on continuing later will be accepted. Works that are added chapters/continuations of previously published works are not permitted unless they can be viewed/read as a standalone.

When you sign up for this event you are making a commitment to yourself, the Mods, and your future partner(s) to meet all posted deadlines and to communicate with the Mods and your partner(s) regularly. Please don’t sign up for the event unless you are confident that you can fully participate and be honest with yourself about what you can commit to.

Please respect the Mods and anyone working with you throughout this event. Certain complaints may disqualify you from this event.

The password to make sure you understand all rules is SHRB24. Remember this when you sign up.

Abstract art/line art, original songs, and poems will also be accepted as long as the prompt given to accompany it gives a clear picture for the writer.

Artists are expected to be respectful of the writer’s ideas. Artists are expected to be in contact with their writers about specific changes/ideas they might have along the way.

Artists will need somewhere to host their work so that it can be embedded on AO3.

Writers are expected to be respectful of the artists’ ideas, likes, dislikes, and rating preferences. Writers are expected to be in contact with their artist about specific changes/ideas they might have along the way.

Writers must base their fics off of the art prompt they claim. For example, if the art features Clary as an art student, the fic should not be Malec-focused with Clary attending an art school in the background. The fic should be primarily about Clary being an art student.

Writers signing up for the event may not get their first pick when assigned art. Please be mindful of this! Ending your commitment because of this is not permitted and if you feel this will be an issue you should not sign up for the event.

Plagiarism and AI content will not be tolerated. All content must be the writer’s own original work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I have to be a part of the Malec Discord Server to participate? All continuous communication for this event will be provided in a special category in the MDS. This includes all announcements, reminders, and ongoing requirements. If you want to join but don’t want access to the entire server, you can be given a Discord role based on your role in this event so the rest of the server is not accessible to you.

Sign-ups haven’t closed yet but I’m so excited about this challenge and really want to begin. Can I start working now? Artists are free to begin their piece(s) as soon as they read through the rules and requirements! Writers, unfortunately, will have to until they are matched with an artist, but we appreciate your enthusiasm for this event!

Can I sign up for more than one role? Absolutely. Many bang participants sign up for multiple roles as long as you believe you can complete all pieces before the assigned deadline(s).

What if someone doesn’t have a match? In the event that the art prompts outnumber writers, we will do several rounds of claiming so that every art prompt has a writer. If writers outnumber art prompts, we will open up the art prompts so that more than one writer is assigned to the same artist or ask artists if they are interested in completing more art. Every artist will be matched with at least one writer and vice versa.

What if I’m matched with an art prompt/partner I don’t want? The Mods (and most artists) would never want someone to create something that makes them uncomfortable, so if there is an art prompt that you don’t want to be matched with, don’t choose it during claims.

If you have any legitimate concerns about a partner (i.e. harassment or rude behavior), we ask that you please notify the Mods. Intervention by the Mods will not occur simply because of disliking story/design choices or the content they’re producing. Mods will not allow any rude or dismissive behavior by any participant. Please just be nice and work hard to help each other.

Can I repost old art or reuse/add to a WIP? No, All content must be brand new and never before posted to any forum. More on this in the rules.

What if I’m not around when claims occur? Claims will span three days and will not be on a first come first serve basis so as long as you are able to submit your interest in those three days, chances are you’ll be matched with one of your top three choices.

What if I’m not positive I can finish within the deadline? When you sign up for this event you are making a commitment to yourself, the Mods, and your future partner(s) to meet all posted deadlines and to communicate with the Mods and your partner(s) regularly. Please don’t sign up for the event unless you are confident that you can fully participate and be honest with yourself about what you can commit to.

What if something comes up after claims and I need to drop out? We understand that dropping out due to unforeseen circumstances can and will happen. We are/have always been very understanding when this happens and are willing to work with you. The quicker you let us know, the more options the Mods have.

How can I contact the Mods? Send us an ask on here or join the Discord server where we are more accessible.

The Course Of First Love (And High School Crushes)

Rating: Explicit

Pairing: Magnus Bane/Alec Lightwood

Summary: Alec's life was a game of chance and it all led to him becoming a bartender in a fancy New York bar. Chance decided to play another game on him when Magnus Bane found himself ordering a drink from him. None other than the same Magnus Bane that used to be Alec's best friend in high school, and his first crush. But Alec would never admit the latter. As much as he'd never admit he still had a thing for Magnus, and the constant flirting wasn't helping. Or the fact Magnus was his new boss.

Beta: @gospi

Artist: @another-random-stranger

What does Magnus do when waking up before Alec? But admiring his husband of course :)

Happy May!

May it bring you a lot of love and happiness.

This was made for the May banner on the Malec server.

Gof is an 18+ semilit to Novela literacy role-play group. We are a group with three different fandoms.

If you’re into or interested in getting into these fandoms we have bookclub & streaming events !

As of right now we are only wanting to do those three fandoms.

The roleplay sections are all aged up/everyone lives, no one dies au.

We require book casting, and realism face claims.

We also do not currently allow OCs (Demigod ocs are currently accepted!)

If you’re interested in seeing who’s open send me a dm!

Our current aesthetic is studio ghibli !

Each fandom is in their own separate area!!

We’re looking for someone to help run the bookclub area and someone interested in creating events and rp plots! We’re currently also looking for mods!

[magnus-the-maqnificent]

Hello!!

Soooo I've been thinking of my glorious days of writing back in 2020

And like. Yeah I write now too but nothing like what I did then right. Like I literally wrote nearly 250k words in 2020 alone according to my ao3 stats, and that's 5 times what I wrote last year.

So I was thinking back on those days as one does, and I think one of the things that helped me write as much as I did (apart from the endless free time) was this server I was in, where I'd share all the ideas I got and even received some from the other people there, and it was this very nice cesspool of creativity.

Anyways this is probably going to end in yet another dead server in my discord but atleast I can say I tried- I made a discord server for Malec writers!!

It's 2:00 am here and I'm immediately going to sleep after this, so don't mind if you join in and it's all crickets. If you do join, see you in like 8 hours <3

[lurafita]

Oh!

Do you have any thoughts about the greek AU for Malec?

I so love all things mythology greek style!

I mean, there was one particular thing that was started in the discord server that had my mind factory working. (wait a sec, need to ask permission to use the discord prompt here) (okay, we cool)

The prompt was this: Alec as Artemis and Jace as Apollo, Simon as Icarus and Isabelle as Enyo. With Magnus and Raphael as the unfortunate somewhat-mortals who draw the attention of the gods by sheltering a runaway oracle; Clary.

(after getting a bit of background from the prompt giver, I added this)

So, possible scenario?

Clary is being kept captive at a temple, with the occasional public appearance, where she has a "vision" that goes something along the lines a great calamity is coming; because the gods are angry at the humans greed, and it can only be prevented if the people sacrifice some of their riches to the temple to appease the gods.

Clary is made to have these false visions by the temple's head honcho, Malachi, who her father sold her to, so that Malachi can get richer.

During one of those public visions, Clary gets away from her guards for a few minutes, just long enough to run into Simon and ask him to help her.

But before he can do anything, the guards are on her and bring her back.

Simon goes to his friends, Raphael and Magnus, and tells them what happened.

They decide to break Clary out of the temple and get her out of the city, to the free lands where they can't get to her anymore.

Jace becomes aware of one of his oracles leaving one of his temples, and enlists his brother, Alec, to help him get her back.

They aren't aware that the oracle was kept and used against her will, just that an oracle was at a temple as it should be, and now the oracle is gone, and that just won't do.

So he gets Alec and Izzy to help him track the missing oracle, they come across the group and after maybe a little a little back and forth, they learn the full story and decide to do something about the corrupt temple head. Along the way, Malec and Jimon happens.

Hey, y'all! 🖤

Here's a black and white version of the banner! I actually did most of the drawing in black and white, and then I added color towards the end to get the edges and details right.

And here's a video of the process! I like to take a screenshot of my progress when I'm done working on my drawing for the day, and I turned these into a video.

What do you think? Do you like seeing different versions and progress videos of my work? Let me know 😊🖤

to be protected (is to be loved) by @thatnerdemryn featuring art by @greentealycheejelly and written for the @malecdiscordserver Mini Bang.

After the fall of Valentine, the Shadow World agreed to New Accords that served all species equally under one condition: if, at any moment, one of their own needed protection, they could call on the shadowhunters. No one ever thought the day would come when a downworlder would willingly ask for angelic help. Until that day arrived. Someone was out to steal Magnus' magic, and Alec, with dreams of leading the New York Institute, was tasked to protect him. Can they set aside their differences to discover the source of the threat all while trying not to fall for each other?
