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.

We are not a crossover server! Each fandom is separate, you only need to know one fandom or more to join!

Our Fandoms

The Folk of the Air

The Shadowhunter Chronicles

&

Percy Jackson(Hoo+Greek Deities)

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 folks!!

So, are you any sort of writer/artist/other sort of creator in the Malec fandom (show/book/both) with no plans for Christmas?

Would you like to join a very last minute very casual Secret Santa exchange event?

If so, join us at the Malec Writer's Guild!!! Just join the server and head down to the #soiree-in-brooklyn channel and give yourself a shoutout while I figure out what the next steps are 🙃

Happy Holidays!!! ❤️💚❤️💚❤️💚

@carelessflower @dustandducks @onetimetwotimesthreetimess @goldendreams3 @green28go @high-warlock-of-brooklyn @khaleesiofalicante help spread the word please? 🥺👉👈

Competetive gift giving

So (sorry if I posted this before I can't remember!), someone in the discord server raised the point that Malec are probably competetive when it comes to gift giving. As in, wanting to give their partner the best gift possible and hounding family and friends for advice.

So obviously Magnus would be hounding Jace and Izzy and Alec would be annoying Cat and Raphael and Ragnor (He is not dead, canon who? Don’t know her.) Izzy and Jace are not helpful, because everything they suggest, Magnus has already done some time, casually, because it was a tuesday or whatever. Alec quickly discoveres that Raphael is no help, because he suggests ridiculous things just to screw with him. Cat is no help because "He is Magnus. I have never seen that man wait for anything he wanted. He has no impulse control. Have you seen his storage unit of shame?" - Alec has. It's not even a storage unit, but a small warehouse where Magnus stores all the things he bought on a whim and then never used again. He auctions the things off every year and then donates the proceeds to charity. And then fills it up again. It's an endless cycle. Ragnor is also no help, because he just says "I don’t know. Have more Sex than you horndogs already have?"

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?
