#magnus bane chronicles

I want the book between series to follow matthew. But I also would like it to follow Euginea. I feel they both deserve to have more story, and have more story to tell. I also want to feel more grief for christopher and find out what Grace is up to. I don't think she needs a whole book but a chapter or flashback just to see where she's at.

BREAKING NEWS: The Shadowhunters Chronicles (2007 - 2029) just received a 55 minute standing ovation from me in my living room after rereading it for the 200th time

Alec and Magnus

[tyhxrondxle]

we tend to forget about this BUT Alec and Magnus had been seeing each other for A WEEK and Alec already had a key to his apartment. that’s the gayest thing they have ever done, and they’ve done a lot of gay things

one of my favorite things will always be that scene of magnus thinking about how most people focused on jace ("the gold"), but in reality alec ("the silver") was rarer. more precious for him. the way he loves alec is something i hold very close to my heart. always freeing and empowering

It's crying over Lightwood-Bane family hours

jace and alec's bond is so important to me,, nobody gets them like I do.

How perfect is it that Magnus decides to take Alexander's surname? to unite it with his own, making it something unique?

Now, I'm not up to date with the books, but from what I gathered Alexander is it for Magnus. Before Alec, Magnus never married, never even bothered to imagine a forever with someone. Alec, in his simplicity and contradictions, has managed to tear down and entirely destroy that wall that had been up for centuries. And while Magnus desperately wants to hope for their forever, desperately wants it, he knows how it is going to end. He knows Alexander is going to pass someday and what he decides to do?

He takes is surname.

I can very well imagine Magnus never removing their wedding ring, even after Alec's passing, which would be a declaration on itself. But the surname?

He is not only saying "oh, he was my love, we were married once". He is incorporating him in his identity. We know how important identity is for a warlock, they usually choose their names for themselves. And Magnus is choosing to making Alec part of it, part of himself.

In a couple of centuries, when the present will only be a chapter in the book of history, Magnus still be Magnus Lightwood-Bane. He would still be Magnus Bane, but he would still be declaring, centuries from now, that he loved a shadowhunter once. That there's a part of him that still will be loving that shadowhunter. That he will probably never stop.

I don't ever want another love.

I think about this more often than I’d like to admit.

“Whoever you have loved, and however you loved them,” said Jem, “anyone you loved would be lucky.”
