I finished act 2 again, but properly this time. and I cannot even begin to put into words how satisfying and beautiful all of that was. I loved act 2 the first time I played, but figuring out how to save the last light this time, properly completing halsin's quest, storming moonrise towers with jaheira and her harpers, seeing aylin reunite with isobel...all of it. I love it even more. and the beginning of act 3 feels all the more rewarding, having fixed my past errors.

I saw someone comment something under a Malex post on Tumblr and I couldn't help but laugh. They said "wouldn't it be interesting if they did a storyline between Malex where cheating is involved." Needless to say I went off on them a little! I get a lot of shows do storylines like that (which I hate! lol) but I don't think they would do this. I mean they didn't have Michael cheat on Maria with Alex so I doubt they would have Michael and Alex cheat on each other. Besides they are cosmic and will always want each other. Not to mention the hate Chris would get! He would become more hated that Carina is! Also the fact that im sure Michael and Tyler would speak up. For my Shadowhunters fans out there Matt and Harry who played Alec and Magnus spoke up against such a thing when filming Shadowhunters. Remember how it looked like Alec was going to cheat on Magnus with that new guy who came in after Alec was getting all upset over Magnus being immortal and everything..... Well turns out that was supposed to happen but Matt said he wouldn't do it and it wouldn't be right to their characters and the fan base and Harry stood right by his side and agreed! I know Vlamis and Tyler would do the same because of how much they love Malex and how they know Malex has a huge fan base! ☺💖

Let's fucking save that for the realm of fanfiction. It's fine there where we can be warned about it but BARF any of these characters cheating, they're just not like that

This is, like, if they did want to do a cheating storyline it would most certainly not be one of malex cheating on the other. That's fucking unthinkable (though, again, realm of fanfiction). I *have* read fic where Alex cheats on Forrest with Michael, and where Michael emotionally cheats on Maria with Alex (Which is...literally what happened in the show, bc she would not talk to him. God I remember when I thought m*luca wouldn't get together because he wouldn't talk to her, can you believe how much they assassinated her character that it turned out to be the opposite where Michael wanted to be open and talk about things and she'd shut him down at every turn) ANYWAY

Point is they kinda did it.

But actually, romantic relationships don't need cheating or triangles for drama, so it's completely unnecessary! There's insecurity, the Past™, I'm sure given Michael's life there's going to be drama about their finances, drama about their wedding (malex vs Isobel on how fancy it should be of c) drama about how they're gonna have kids and when, drama about Michael adopting a dog for Alex (but he prrooomisesss to take care of him for you Alex!! Look how cute sssaasddddd) and this is just off the top of my head

I know nothing about shadowhunters except malec is popular ship lol
