Malec as Friends To Lovers #1
Starting off our Friends to Lovers month, we have the amazing Hurting And Healing by clockworkswan.
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Summary:
"Magnus freezes. It’s then that he realises. He should’ve seen it before. He’s fairly certain he’s crushing on his best friend. His neighbour. The one boy who grew alongside him."
Childhood sweethearts AU where Alec and Magnus grow up next door to each other. Over the years, they transition from playmates to best friends to something more. But as usual, the path to happiness is always complicated. Oneshot.
Link to fic
We hope you all enjoy this first story, and please feel free to let us know what you think!
Happy reading!
PS: if you have anything you want to see during this month, please feel free to send it our way.

Hello hi it's me! Been a while since I came on here.
I was watching Khoobsurat the other day and wanted to reiterate Fawad Khan as Desi Alec. It's the casting I'm most proud of 😎. The entire time i was just imagining Malec in that film. I think we've talked about a Malec au of this before?? I'm not sure. But I have to say Sonam Kapoor's and Fawad's characters in the film are peak Malec.
Also Tabu as Desi Imogen has potential (sply after i watched her in the Hindi version of drishyam)
hi hi hi
there is actually a khoobsurat malec au! - We Make Our Own Home by clockworkswan. Hope you enjoy!
ps - why would you make Imogen sexy (because Tabu is oof) omg sdjnckjs.

11 and 34 for the ask game!
Hey Heather! thanks for the ask 💜
11. What is that one set you made that just won’t die
This 'Wangxian are married with a kid' regularly pops back up. It's not the fanciest set I've ever made at all, so it's nice that people like it just because they love the ship!
34. A set that took you a long time/was really hard but you’re really proud of how it came out
Very boring, but my pinned post - the Wangxian relationship journey. I'd seen something similar in passing them forgot about it. Decided to try and make it and didn't know what I was doing, so it was a bit messy and took some time. I've re-made it recently for another fandom (yet to post) and it was much easier a second time!
ask me questions for gif makers!

5 and 13! x
@clockworkswans Super late, so a tag in case you miss the response! Thank you so much for asking!
5. : K-Drama OTP(s)?
This is kind of funny because if I think about it, I love kdramas, but I don’t think I am person who typically gets all crazy about couple themselves, isolated from the story, or just... IDK, it’s hard to explain. But that aside, I do have an OTP!
Gang Doo and Moon Soo from Just Between Lovers. Will never not love them. My sweet, sweet traumatized babies that grew so much, together and individually. They nailed that sweet, sweet spot of ‘sort of enemies to friends to lovers’, starting from the kind of wrong foot and then discovering each other - and themselves - layer by layer. Brb I am getting emotional and need to clutch my chest for 5 minutes.
Some other couples I enjoyed.
Both couples in Goblin. While my feelings about some aspects of it all have gotten a lot more ambivalent over the years, I do have to be honest to the part of myself that loves them still rather unconditionally. There was something tragic and beautiful and trying to do right by each other, in the end, that really stuck with me.
Both couples of Run On. Seun Gyeom and Mi Joo make me feel all warm and happy and honestly, I don’t know if I want to date either of them or be either of them, so that’s that.
Although I am prepared to be let down by resolution of Dan Ah’s sexuality storyline resolution, I am still absolutely invested in everything that she and Yeong Hwa got going on. The tension, the redefining of dynamics and power balance, the way he makes her smile and she sees to the heart of his paintings, the way he just wants to get pegged so bad but won’t let her walk all over him as a person and an artist... Sexy.
Dan Oh and Haru from Extraordinary You. It’s not any sort of life-consuming love for them as a romantic couple, but it’s hard to not to root for them as they face so much together and come through kinder, stronger and more in love. I only want what’s best for them and, really, who wouldn’t?
Bok Joo and Joon Hyung from Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo. Although I don’t think Joon Hyung is precious bean that can’t do any wrong (there were moments he was kind of a dick, even if it worked in comedic way), their relationship overall developed sweetly and endearingly and I definitely genuinely rooted for them and found them adorable. Also, it was my first kdrama, so they get shoutout for that. If they didn’t sell me on kdramas and kdrama romance, I wouldn’t be here in the first place.
+ Bonus
Not a kdrama, but Kurodachi from Cherry Magic is definitely got me more emotionally invested than most kdrama couples than I’ve seen. They had their messups, but overall, they were earnest and sweet, and so absolutely adorable and there wasn’t one moment where I would feel like I couldn’t absolutely root for them as individuals and as a couple.
++ Bonus 2: electric boogaloo Se Ra and Gong Myung from Into the Ring could very well end up here when I have watched more than 3 eps and skipped ahead a bit, because one single post credit scene made me feel more mushy feelings about their budding romance than many epic couples or famous dramas. Also, I adore their ‘I hate your guts’ to ‘I can respect that’ to ‘I would literally do the impossible for you’ journey for I am a simple bitch.
13: Top five K-Dramas?
*groans* It’s such a hard question. I hate ranking things. So I will only rank my favorite and the rest will be a random ass mess and I don’t know if I will stop at 5. This is my blog, I alter the rules as I please. *distressed noises*
1. Just Between Lovers. I’ve not been shy about loving this drama. I could ramble and ramble about it, but to preserve everyone involved, I will just say it’s, to me, the perfect ensemble story of gradual healing and overcoming trauma as found family. It hits like a freight train, but somehow you are put back together better than before. It’s sweet, it’s tragic, it’s funny in places and it’s comforting in this one big package. It’s embedded itself in part of my heart, a promise and understanding all at once. ‘Maybe it’s not the time, yet, but you will heal. I believe in you.’ And it makes me want to believe it, too.
It’s Okay, That’s Love. I don’t know how this would hold up, if I watched it now, and I am not saying it was perfect every step along the way, but in the end, it made me cry and it made me hopeful all at once, it comforted me in times when I really needed those exact words spoken to me and there was something so lovely about this found family.
Run On is tentatively on the list, because they might still absolutely tank it in the last 6 episodes, but I really want to believe they won’t, despite my previously mentioned lack of faith in quality wrap-up of a storyline. But even so, what it has already given to me, won’t lose its meaning if that happens. (Hah, do you get that convoluted reference?) And what it has given me is comforting, soft, character-driven story with cast full with compelling characters, many different friendships and a world that feels alive with many tiny details, yet not bloated. It’s story of healing and communication, a glimpse into profession I used to dream about, it makes me want to think about who I want to be as a person and believe just a little I could become them.
Goblin. Again, more ambivalent about it these days, but I can’t deny the power it had on me back when I watched it, from cinematography to use of OSTs which still remain some of my all time favorites, to the relationships between the four leads and the found family of it all. (Are we sensing a pattern here?)
To. Jenny It revealed the meaning of comfort show to me. It’s short and sweet and, in some ways, absolute musical nonsense. It injects seratonin directly into my brain and I have rewatched it like 4 or 5 times which is genuinely a record for me.
+ Bonus Cherry Magic. Sort of same as with To. Jenny, this is probably be going to be my comfort show if I ever get over the cringe of my failed fanfic attempt that haunts me three weeks later like some kind of disfigured ghoul. The show itself just makes me feel things which isn’t that easy to do.
Send me a kdrama ask?<3

9 and 13! :)
oh tysm!!
9. An OST that you didn’t like i dont think ive ever watched one where i like,, actively Skip the songs but i found most of the hwarang soundtrack a bit boring except for it’s definitely you - like i just feel like they missed a chance to do a soundtrack that fit with the era (i get that hwarang is in no way a Serious Period Drama(tm) but it couldve pretended for me)
13. A drama where you disliked the main lead the lead from you’re beautiful - like tbh both the main girl and the main guy were Not A Vibe i was glad to b rid of them where is my spin off show of the two other guys left in the love triangle they were very good boys

papayaaaaaa!
papaya: what song describes your aesthetic?
This is harder than I thought to answer, because I’m not even sure what song is “my jam” since I’m the type of person that listens to the same song a million times until I hate it. Think I’ll go with “Dance to This” by Troye Sivan and Ariana Grande, because it’s pop (which is my fave genre), queer (because Troy) and something that I’d probably put on in the background for any type of activity (so, works with my very casual vibe)
ask me a fruity question

clockworkswans replied to your post: lucifer writers: here is our protagonist, lucifer...
SO BLESSED (pun intended) kinda wish they’d show him actually kissing/hooking up with a dude tho, seeing as how many times random girls are there, but still, yaaas.
don’t get me wrong i would sell!my!SOUL!!!! for an onscreen m/m hookup for lucifer (or f/f for maze for that matter) but
they love to remind us at every opportunity and i think have doubled down on showing it/referring to it so fingers crossed (although the best thing is him getting together with chloe let us be r e a l)

*sighs* nct, go wild, son
the sigh as if i made you send this sdfdsa, but thank you!!
My first bias: taeyong!! (still can't believe the whole reason i got into nct was because he giggled cutely in a superm video and i was instantly whipped lmao)
Your current bias and why: johnny is my ult but also taeyong, kun, renjun and jaemin (5 out of 23 is pretty good for my multi bias tendencies) i'm not gonna talk about all of them and do you really need me to ramble about johnny more than i already do!? but talented funny sweet gorgeous wow HE
Favourite song: welcome to my playground (have i mentioned how much i love this song?!)
Favourite MV: probably kick it!
Member you think has the best smile: ahh this is hard but KUN (dimples 🥺)
Favourite choreography: so many good ones but i'll go with my first and last
Favourite era: gonna go with nct 2020 because it's as i was getting into them and it was nice to see everyone interacting, hello future was a really fun one to be around for as well (also for eras i didn't experience maybe superhuman/end of 2019, kind of wish i'd been around for that)
Do you own any merchandise: several albums (also the johnny blanket you got me sdfds thank you)
Have you seen them live: nope :(
Favourite voice/singer: ahh but they have so many amazing vocalists,,,,, i really love jaehyun's voice though
Favourite dancer: ten
put a kpop group in my ask
#me answering these as if you don't know most of this already sdfdsa#was tempted to split this into units but also effort#feel like i didn't talk about wayv much though :(#but you know i love them#q and a#clockworkswans#kpop asks

'the other day it was 7:50pm for at least two hours', seriously, omg!! this. Maybe because it's getting darker earlier for us now but wow, i feel this.
omg Heather! i don’t know why it’s like this but time is so malleable. it was 7:50, I did at least an hour of something, then checked the time - it was 8:00... Okay, so I did at least another hour... 8:05. HOW?
my s/o thought it was hilarious because they were having a ‘the whole day only lasted 5 minutes, where did it go?’ type day...
#sigh#write this and no one would believe it#maybe 2020 is some new kind of time travel#clockworkswans#Thanks for asking!

daisies and 1975, because you deserve all the happiness, even if it takes a long time to get
Welp, I teared up, but, in a sort of happy way. Thank you.
daisies: what is the greatest accomplishment of your life?
I wish I knew. I really do. I think… Perhaps still being here. It’s been a rough battle and it has gotten so much harder recently, but I am sticking around and I have found things I like and enjoy, I’ve gotten education even if it didn’t give me jack shit of future so far, I had to use can to go to my high school exams after being sick for most of the school year, but I did it. And I am here now. I might not have been the daughter I feel like I should be, but I am alive, and one day I will be able to fight so she can be truly proud of me. I live, despite everything. And it’s more than I thought I would be able to do when I was 16, even 13.
1975: what is the first happy memory that comes to mind, recent or otherwise?
Me and mom, sitting together in nature and talking. It’s not one specific memory now, more of a genre of those - us in our favorite park or a bus stop at night, or another city’s pondside, or our own city’s pondside, but it’s us, there in that moment, free and happy, and together. Laughing and having jokes others would look at us weirdly for, but we’re in our own world. World that she took key to with her, but I can still press my face to the window and look into it, the memories, through the fogged up glass. The moments when we laughed and teased our cat at home or watched recording of a beautiful concert, when she… I. I think you get the idea.
Send me an aesthetic themed ask or any ask, really?
#sent on a cloud#ask games answered#I miss her so much but I will stay here because I promised her#one day#I will maybe be happy again#and in way that doesn't feel wrong and unfair to her#clockworkswans
