just your casual reminder: harry shum jr’s adam’s apple is a piece of art

Okay, so I'm thinking Malec, Alec as A, Magnus as B (or vice versa I'm not picky). Maybe a college setting? So... Person A and B doesn't really know each other at first. Person A is deaf. Person B slowly learns sign language. A casual "good morning" and "have a good weekend", then "merry Christmas" and the occasional "happy birthday". Later "will you be my valentine/date" and if course "can I kiss you". Person A is very in awe of the fact that someone is willing to do that for them.

the pressure of dealing with this amazing au ok here we go

so alec is probably the deaf one because i feel like that just fits the story i have in my head better

he wasn’t born deaf so he can more or less still talk perfectly well, but that obviously doesn’t make up for the fact he can’t hear

in fact, the only people alec actually talks around are izzy and jace, because if he tries to actually talk to anyone else, they start to talk back and it all gets very complicated from there on out

alec has been trying to lip read from the moment he lost his hearing, but it’s hard sometimes and getting things wrong and being completely unable to correct them without resorting to written words drives him crazy

(i’m no expert on deafness so i don’t want to make too many crazy claims without doing some proper research, but i figure he maybe lost it as a teen thanks to some viral thing, so learning sign language has been a bit of a process for him along with everyone else)

actually on that note, he, izzy and jace communicate through sign language more than speech these days, because they all learned together and it doesn’t cut anyone out of the conversation

maryse and robert are terrible at it but alec doesn’t see much of them anymore anyway, since they disapprove so highly of his gay agenda lifestyle

anyway magnus and alec take the same college elective together - maybe mythology???

it’s a small class, and there’s a lot of group discussions and things, but alec mostly hides up the back and does his best to lip read - he gets extra notes from the lecturer after to double check he didn’t miss anything

all magnus sees is this super handsome guy who just… hides quietly at the back all the time

he tries to talk to alec this one time but alec flees the scene as fast as possible

magnus, not to be put off, starts systematically asking everyone he knows about the cute, mysterious guy, until raphael finally sighs exasperatedly and declares he’s deaf, you idiot

and at that point magnus kind of realises it’s probably not rudeness but just a lack of an easy way to communicate

and so he does a little homework into forms of sign language (why are there different types?!?!?!!) and learns a quick ‘hello, how are you?’ as an experiment

and when he goes to class and shows alec, it’s a bit sloppy and the expressions aren’t quite right, but the way magnus moves his hands is magical and alec just flushes and replies quickly in sign language

which of course, magnus gets nothing of, but he apologises and then basically spends every spare night looking up new phrases in sign language

and every day he comes in to show them to alec who smiles just a little wider because of it

eventually they go for coffee and alec starts to talk to him verbally, instead of the note passing and use of messenger they’ve been going on

but as magnus picks up more and more sign language he drops the words and uses his hands instead

eventually alec asks magnus why he’s bothering to go to the effort

and magnus just smiles and signs that it’s because he wants alec to date him and how else would he be able to communicate his deep love and affection if it’s not in a language that alec can actually fully understand

alec falls in love pretty much on the spot, as if he wasn’t already

jace and izzy are all ready with the shovel talk until they walk in and find magnus and alec chattering away in sign language like it’s nothing

they pretty much sign their approval right then and there, and izzy starts quietly planning an engagement party

her and jace have a bet going on about how soon they’ll get married - izzy wins, because izzy wins everything

jace gets to be best man though, so he’s not too sore

they say their vows in sign language, because that’s the language they started this relationship with, so magnus insists on sealing it with it too

and then they’re unbearably cute forever the end

send me an au and i’ll expand on it!

He may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you can break — his heart.
