#malec writing goodies

Malec Fanfic Rec! 2.0

Here I am again with a list too long for those who are Malec Trash.

Since this fandom loves drama (the unnecesary one) this list contains lots of that, with tears, angst, happy endings and everything in between in these Malec writing goodies, that hopefully can appeased those who wants drama and those who really are looking for good fanfiction to bear this hiatus.

And all the love to these amazing writers that can bring everything above and more with just a few words and make you sit still until the end of the chapter and make you want more

My stalking skills are a little rusty and there’s a few authors that I could’t find their blog. So, for whoever read this and knows the author and tag them, that would be very much appreciated.

A Kind of Magic by thegaminebruise

"I'm a warlock."

"Are we roleplaying? Because you know I’m down, but I would really like some time to prepare and, like, flesh out my character, maybe write down some major story points. I don’t know if –”

---

Or, Magnus tells Alec about his magic.

A Lesson in Love by CobaltCorvus

Alec should have known he was doomed from the moment he decided to ask Magnus Bane for help.

A Tail to Tell by CobaltCorvus

Magnus dresses like a work of art, there's always something new to see every time you look, and Alec is a tad disappointed he didn't notice this little detail before.

Animal by lbrt_audrey

Based on the song Animals, by Maroon 5.

Magnus description of Alec, his touch, his body ... everything that made him feel.

As long as there's the two of us, we've got the world and all it's charms. By Taliehere

And when the world is through with us, we've got each other's arms ~

At first Alec doesn't notice, but Clary does.

Better for You by @zrdu

Magnus' and Alec's relationship comes to a sudden halt when Maryse interferes. They both try to cope without each other.

Blame The Tequila by @scarlett-ice

Alec took a sip of his coffee as he tapped on the message inbox and nearly spat it back out again at the sight that greeted him. He had to be dreaming, hallucinating, because that…that wasn’t Mark’s name at the top. Alec blinked a few times, even put down his coffee to pinch himself, but nothing changed. It still wasn’t Mark’s name.

It was Magnus’.

He’d sent the message to Magnus Bane. He’d sent a flirty shirtless picture to his boss.

Caffeinated Wolves by @softmagnusbane

“They’re really good” finally turning to face the barista Magnus feels his mouth go dry. The man behind the counter is gorgeous: pink lips, cheekbones slightly flushed, mesmerizing hazel eyes, surely a model on the side...maybe he could model Magnus’ clothes, or, model his suddenly inspired underwear collection. He’ll have to get right on that.

Coffee Shop Dalliance by @imawriteriwrite

Everyone who worked at and frequented J&L Coffee knew two things for sure. The first was that Simon under no circumstances should be allowed anywhere near the expensive coffee machines unless they wanted to destroy the coffee shop. The second was that the beautiful glittery man that sat in the front corner of the shop every day sketching and the dark-haired boy who sat in the back corner reading (and happened to be Isabelle the barista’s brother) were made for each other.

Also known as: the one where Magnus and Alec have been pining over each other across a crowded coffee shop for eight months and Isabelle is tired of it.

Devotion by @jezthemadficster

Magnus Bane is one of the most well respected and loved professors at Edom Hall University, but although he adores his students and fellow faculty, he likes to keep his private life ...private. The mystery surrounding his life intrigues everyone at the University but the intrigue picks up to another level with the arrival of flowers one day.

Differences by @theonetruenorth

Five times that Alec is taller/bigger than Magnus and one time he isn’t.

Five People That Heard Magnus' Ringtone for Alec and One Time Alec Heard It Himself (and Shared His Own) by darkangel86

The fact that it took as long as it did for Jace to hear Magnus' ringtone for Alec was surprising. After all, the blonde Shadowhunter had been living in the loft for well over a month before it finally happened.

Freud is a Dick by @sanctuaryforalluniverses

He, Alec Lightwood, had just sent his boss, Magnus Bane, a dick pic. Of someone else’s dick.

Fleeing the country would not even begin to be enough of a response to this.

Glitter and Misunderstandings by Torius Armitage (VictoriaSkyeMarsters)

He had tried. When he was nearer Clary’s age, he had not held back in his efforts to be wooed, but whenever the courtship took its turn for the serious and permanent, Magnus would retreat, realizing he felt empty inside in regards to the suitor. And he would not settle for emptiness. He yearned for genuine, overwhelming, inescapable love, like the heroines and heroes of the novels he consumed. Why sentence oneself to a life absent of magic? But Magnus was learning, after years of lackluster options, that the magic he sought, in his world anyway, was nowhere to be found.

--

In other words, Pride and Prejudice drenched in glitter.

Hard Choices by heartsdesire456

Even before arriving at the house where Clary and Alec had gone to meet the Warlock that was supposed to be bringing back their mother, Jace could tell that something was very wrong.

Note: this fic is HEAVY. The contain of it is not for everyone. First of all, it has male pregnancy, a lot of angst, torture at some point, discussion of abortion, rape not described but it’s there, I think there’s panic attacks at some point. I feel obliged to say it because anyone can see this post and feel triggered for this. I put it in here, anyway, because this fic is worth it, because the author makes it bearable and for me, the author is cautios for some topics in the fic. For those who can’t really digest this kind of fics, don’t even click it, please, just keep scrolling and find a fic that you really like, and for those who knows the author and knows the writings, I really suggest to give it a chance because it was very well written.

Hold On, We're Going Home by @unorthodoxpartofyourworld

At Esther's request, Alec begins his foray into the mundane world so he can be a believable Matthew Daddario.

He sees something he can't really unsee.

(This is a companion piece to Soul Glitch, you should probably go read that first so you generally understand what's going on. Takes place right after Chapter 3)

Honey, i'm home by Shorty

Magnus gives him a once over as he steps out of the elevator, and for a second Alec lets himself believe that it’s flirtatious.

Of course, that’s all dashed seconds later as Magnus disappears through the door to his apartment with a loud, happy, “babe, I’m home!”

...

Or, in which misunderstandings are made.

Hoodie by @alec-dark-wood 

It’s soft and fluffy and the first time Magnus sees it,he has to backtrack and take a closer look.He walks towards the grey lump slowly,hardly daring to believe what it could be.

Hopefully it's Enough by onihunter305

Magnus could tell something was wrong with Alec from the moment he touched his elbow outside of the Institute. He could feel the tremors that shook his body. He knew Alec needed someone to take care of him, and even though he was momentarily distracted by Alec’s declaration of love, he was going to make sure he took care of the man he loved.

I can do that by @softmagnusbane

Prompt: soulmate au where the first time you touch you both get a vivid mental image of the other’s biggest kink.

I Love You, Too by parabacrybaby

This takes place the morning after the morning of the battle in the winter finale of season 2A.

I'll make you (beg for mercy) by thesorrowoflizards

Magnus wears body glitter. Alec appreciates this very, very much.

Inspired by combining three one-word prompts: softly, strawberries, and glitter

It's nothing by @steakandvodka 

Alec is pretty sure someone, or something, is stalking him. He just isn't sure if it's an innocent kitten, or something a bit more malicious than that. -- In this world, Alec is the one to find their pet cat and bring it home to Magnus.

Kids in the Kitchen by @perpetual-j0urney

“It’s Alec Lightwood,” He finally said, after another moment of hesitation. Then, both sets of puppy eyes were locked on Magnus once again and waiting for his answer. “No”. More than a few customers turned to look at the outburst as both boys pulled away from Magnus and simultaneously cried, “But Papa!”

-------

Magnus Bane liked to believe he was a good father, but there were just some requests that one could not grant their kids. For instance, a good dad wouldn't let their child crawl into a lion's cage to pet the furry kitty. Alternatively, a good dad also wouldn't bring their kids to a cooking class taught by the angriest chef on the Food Network.

Kiss With A Fist by @clockworkswans

When agent Alec Lightwood is given his first kill hit, he doesn’t expect much trouble. Of course, he also doesn’t expect it to be a cheerful assassin who lands him in a whole load of trouble. Enter Magnus Bane: an assassin turned thief who reluctantly teams up with Alec - and The Clave - after he pisses off a very important and powerful crime boss, Valentine Morgenstern. In a world of violence and unjust laws, can the two put aside their differences and work together? Aka: in which Alec is sent to kill Magnus, doesn’t, and then really wishes he had. (but not really). Enemies to friends to lovers.

Never felt that type of fear before by creativitea

The risk of his heart in Magnus's hands is worth it, compared to the risk that would lie in keeping it hidden. He trusts Magnus with it more than himself, and he needs him to know; even if it's a bad idea. The risk of Magnus not knowing is worse than the risk of it being out in the open.

New Neighbor by Chrystie, kate882

Alec Lightwood isn't the most social person in the world, but his new neighbor is ridiculously attractive so he makes an effort. It's too bad Magnus seems to think that Alec is married to his best friend.

Nobody says that anymore by vomitingwords

Magnus is over 300 years old and Alec is okay with that. Sometimes more often than not

Oh darling (put your arms around me) by thesorrowoflizards

Also known as: Six times Magnus doesn't dare initiate physical affection, two times he doesn't even think about it

Pardon the Interruption by Obsessivecompulsivereadr

But one thing they could never seem to fix was how often they got interrupted whenever they did have time to spend together. It seemed as if no one in the entire shadow world could function without dragging Magnus and Alec into their problems.

So that’s what this vacation had been about, three weeks away, just the two of them.

Prettiest person in the world by @katychan666 

(A fanfic inspired by the prettiest person in the world post on tumblr)

Alec making Magnus speechless with his smugness for the first time :)

Pretty Thoughts by @rosegoldhell 

After being homeschooled all his life, and unintentionally sheltered, Magnus Bane has to navigate his way through American Highschool. He goes in thinking the worse possible scenarios, and quickly learns that not everything you see in movies is true. Sometimes the unexpected happens, and magnus soon realizes he has fallen for one of the most popular guys in school, and it might not be as one sided as he thinks.

Put the heat on if you’re cold by @ohlafraise

Alec pulled back the delicate tissue paper and looked in the box. Oh. Okay.

Or: Alec isn’t attracted to women, but that doesn’t mean he’s not attracted to femininity.

Save it by onihunter305

Magnus knew something wasn’t right the moment he heard the telltale sound of Isabelle Lightwood’s distinctive heels on Raphael’s slate floor. If she had hurt his dear Alexander, she was about to wish she had never returned to this apartment.

Secrets Told at 2am by AdorkaGabe

Alec can't stand it. He has to get out. The roof isn't far enough. He goes to Highland Park in Brooklyn and meets an interesting confidant in a glittery Warlock.

(Or what happens when Alec meets Magnus BEFORE they met at Magnus' Loft.)

Shaky Ground, Stabilized by onihunter305

Alec had once been told that he would blow up the very ground he stood on to make things right. If that was true, why did he feel as though the ground below him was disintegrating at the same rapid pace as the relationships he once held dearly.

So He Told You About That? By @bcnedrah

Magnus' face in 2x08 when talking with Jace about sleeping with Alec was a face of sex gone wrong.

Someone should kill the sun by MsEnny

“You know, Mags. Last night I had a kind of revelation.”

“Really?”

“Yes. I-… I know it’s late, but I realized, stupidly, that I never really told you how much I love you.”

Magnus didn’t talk anymore. He didn’t have to.

Stay Here Forever by @imawriteriwrite

A year before, they didn't even know each other. Then there was this hookup app, and months where they thought they could be "just fuck buddies". Things went downhill. Things went uphill.

Now, it's been months since Magnus Bane (head of Bane Co.) and Alec Lightwood (kind of officially a lawyer) finally figured their shit out and started a healthy relationship. Now it's Valentine's Day and their relationship is put in danger as they compete to out romance each other.

Based on the cheesy line "I've caught feelings. I hear it's contagious. We should both be quarantined in bed all day." Literally nothing but self-indulgent fluff.

Addicted To You Valentines Day!

The Drunk Giraffe, Alec Lightwood by just_a_winchester

Drunk Alec tries to break into Magnus's apartment.

The Kissing Booth by @hornedqueenofhell

Alec will 100% totally and completely blame this on Magnus

The Lightwood-Bane Saga by @achilleanragnor

Alec and Magnus come out by kissing each other on the ice, but the media takes it in a way they never expected. aka 3 +1 times the media got it wrong and the one time they made sure the media understood

The people that matter by @steakandvodka

“God, you two are so in love it’s disgusting,” Jace said, breaking the short silence. He and Izzy grinned as they waited for Alec to blush and stammer his way through a denial, as Alec always did when he was confronted about his feelings for the warlock.

They were stunned into silence when all Alec did was look back at where Magnus left, smile softly, and nod in agreement.

The time Magnus Bane got drunk by @katychan666

It's Alec's birthday and Magnus threw him a party, at which he drank... a lot, even more than he usually has. This ends up with him turning into an emotional and over-dramatic mess.

The Trouble with Words by Obsessivecompulsivereadr

There’s just something about Magnus Bane that makes people feel safe. Cared for. Loved.

And Alec would fight for that till his last dying breath, not just for himself, but for others, too. He just never knows how to tell Magnus that because, while he loves to read, he hates words.

The trouble with words is that they always fail him, and Magnus is too important to him to lose simply because he said something stupid.

The truth, for you by @serendipitiness

He’d meant it – he still means it, and he thinks he’ll mean it forever – but Alec never wants to have to say it like that again.

(or how Alec tells Magnus he loves him the second time, the way he really wants to)

Touch Me by wordsmithraven

When Alec starts to question why Magnus so rarely initiates contact, the powerful warlock and Alec's own siblings are put on the spot. It's a conversation a long time coming but is Magnus ready to have it? And can Alec handle the answer he receives?

Two's company, three's a whole lot of Alec Lightwood eye rolls by all_stories_are_truth_and_lies

This was just all so new, Magnus and he, Alec was nervous but excited to see where it would go. How in the hell was he ever suppose to ever get some alone time with Magnus with Jace-the-constant-mood-killer-Wayland as an unwanted houseguest? The story of how Alec Lightwood tries but doesn't always succeed in moving his and Magnus's relationship to the next step.

‘Alexander…’ Magnus whispered, his breath hot in Alec’s ear. ‘Tell me if you want me to stop.’ Stop? If Alec wasn’t so far gone he might have actually laughed at the thought. Alec gave a quick nod of understanding before pulling Magnus’s mouth back to his, pretty sure he felt the Warlock smiling against his lips.

One-shot set post episode 2.06 Malec trying to get it on with Jace cockblocking all over the shop.

Underneath by @sfjessii

“You already know everything.” Alec whispers but Magnus is alerted instantly, his eyes open, craning his neck to get a glimpse of Alec’s face.

He stays quiet, merely squeezing Alec’s hand to try and soothe him. Alec’s sigh rips right through Magnus and he wishes he could pull him into himself to protect him from any harm.

What's It Gonna Be by @lemonoclefox

Fairchild’s bakery is a second home to not just Magnus, but also to most of his found-family. As a pastry chef, he works long hours and takes great pride in his craft – so much so that he has little time or attention for much else. Least of all romance. After plenty of experience with heartbreak and disappointment, he has come to expect the worst from anything in that department, and the arrival of the wealthy Lightwoods in the neighborhood isn’t about to change that. Especially not when their eldest son might just be the most insufferable prick Magnus has ever met, no matter what anyone else has to say about the guy.

(aka the Pride & Prejudice/bakery AU no one asked for)

I want you to know I read "Alicante’s Most Not Edible Husband" and had to do a double take :DD tell me about "Alicante’s Most Not Eligible Husband"?

ksjdksdjflskjflsjfsl

So this was my original fic for the Malec Mini Bang. Unfortunately I lost steam for it after a while and stopped writing it. I do have a complete chapter done.

Basically I had this cracky idea about what Lydia said in season 1 about women in Idris lining up to have Alec’s hand in marriage and I just thought to myself “what if they still tried to get with Alec when he and Magnus moved to Alicante when they get promoted. Thus began these bitter, but still thirsty women trying to get Alec to leave Magnus and be with him but buttering him up.

Here’s a lovely snippet of it:

He gets about halfway through when a knock on the door pulls him away. Opening the door reveals a petite woman with blonde hair holding a basket.

“Hello, Mr. Lightwood! Oop or should I say Inquisitor Lightwood,” she giggles.

“Actually it’s Lightwood-Bane,” he corrects. A sneer appears on her face before it quickly disappears.

“Oh my apologies! My name is Cassandra. I live in the area and decided to welcome the new neighbor and Inquisitor to Idris!” She beams, holding out the basket in front of her. “I thought I would stop by and give you this basket full of homemade baked goods! I didn’t know if you were allergic to anything so a warning that there are nuts in some of the goodies.”

“Thank you, that is very kind of you,” Alec says as he reaches for the basket.

“Who’s at the door, darling,” Magnus sighs as he slips an arm around Alec, leaning into his side. Alec wraps his arm around Magnus to steady him and presses a kiss to his forehead.

“This is Cassandra,” he says. “She decided to welcome us to the neighborhood with a basket of home-baked goods.”

“Oh, it seems that word is already out about your sweet tooth,” Magnus chuckles. Magnus looks over at the woman and sees her scowling at him. “Is everything alright dear?”

“Yes everything is fine,” she quips before shoving the basket into their arms. “I just forgot I need to be somewhere and I am late. Have a wonderful day!”

Cassandra runs down the steps and hurries her way down the cobblestone street. Magnus and Alec watch as she stomps her way down the road, hands clenched at her sides.

[kinkymagnus]

What kinks and fetishes do you think Magnus and Alec have?

sfgkjdfg honestly i think they’re both pretty open to trying anything but here’s some specific kinks/fetishes i enjoy applying to them in fics (and also think they would like. enjoy. lol) 

cum kink: you cannot tell me (or at least i won’t believe you) that magnus doesn’t love alec coming inside him, on him, etc. and alec sure as hell thinks he looks beautiful with cum on his face, or his stomach, his thighs, leaking from his hole, 

competence/power/strength kink: both magnus and alec love that they’re dating a powerful badass. absolute power couple. magnus loves it when alec gets all authoritative head of the institute on him and him around, “punishes” him, is strong enough to pick him up and pin him against walls, etc. praise kink: magnus will deny it to his dying day but he really fucking loves being told how good he’s doing, being praised and told he’s beautiful/good/etc.. the validation and warm fuzzy feelings are so good. and alec loves it too (both praising magnus and watching his reactions and when magnus praises him right back)hair pulling kink: magnus loves having his hair pulled during sex. ‘nuff said.

daddy kink: again, one of those kinks i like only if i don’t think too much about it. but you can’t tell me magnus wouldn’t lose it in the moment and call alec daddy at lease one (1) time. same with alec calling him baby lol. (but i’m not talking full dlg or whatever they call it with like pacifiers and diapers and tantrums or whatever, just pretty mild.)

breeding kink: is it weird? yeah probably. do i care one tiny bit? absolutely not. anyway, alec fucking magnus and teasing him about putting a baby in him–and magnus loving it–is the fucking best. i might be biased because i just read a great fic about it.

bondage: probably one of the most well-known and accepted bdsm things, but still a goodie. a classic. alec tying magnus up and leaving him helpless–even gagged, or with a cock ring and being edged–is something that gets both of them going

humiliation kink: i admit i like this one in more moderate doses but it’s still fun. bonus points if mixed with semi-public sex or sex in places where they probably shouldn’t have sex but somehow it’s really hot to have it there anyway (like alec’s office, for example)

anyway this is just some great kinks that work really well with malec, nowhere near all that i’d use or could see them doing. honestly there are very few kinks i could just straight-up not see them doing (which overlaps heavily but not completely with the ones that squick me out, to be fair) soooo

honestly other than a few big no’s, for the most part, i’ll try anything once writing-wise. i mean like, that huge prompt list i made–a lot of them i’ve never written/really thought about but i wanted to challenge myself. and i’ve had a few surprises on what i do and don’t like, too. it’s weird.

also disclaimer: not everyone likes these kinks/fetishes and that’s fine, you don’t have to read or write them, but please don’t message me being all “kdflgjfalEC WOULD NEVER EVER TIE MAGNUS UP” or “magnus would never ever say daddy in bed ever” like chill bro. it’s fine. if it bugs you that much complain about it on your own blog or to your friends, don’t bother me about it.

To Know Who You Are

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/35Mlt5e

by AmyTheWarlock

Magnus has been in a writing slump for way to long, that is until his flatmate suggests that he interviews Alexander Lightwood, the captain of the swim team and all round goody two shoes. Magnus expects that following Alec around all day will be boring and a waist of time but as he starts to unravel who Alec really is he finds himself falling for him.

Or...

Alec has never allowed himself to date, never mind fall in love, it was far too risky. The introduction of student journalist Magnus Bane flips everything he believed in on its head as not only does he start opening up to the new person in his life but finds himself falling for him as well.

[hopelessheathen]

I fucking love fanfic.

I fucking love waking up in the morning when I have a day off and opening up the next chapter of each of five WIPs I’m following that have updated overnight. I fucking love getting home after an emotionally exhausting day of work and crashing spread-eagle on the carpet with my laptop to read two new updates of WIPs I’m following and two 1500-word one-shots from writers I’m subscribed to. I fucking love getting an email from AO3 about a new chapter and saying aloud to my empty apartment in gleeful anticipation, “Let’s see what happens to these angsty fuckers next!”

Favorite WIPs of the moment, all highly recommended:

Supernatural

Games of Skill and Fortune by aeli_kindara (Supernatural, destiel, sort of an alternative season 14 and it’s so damn compelling, addresses the homeworld-Michael issue in a satisfying, in-depth way; also amazingly good prose)

To the Victor Go the Spoils by JotItDown (Supernatural AU, destiel, deserves special mention for pissing me off so much while also making it impossible to stop reading - kind of reminds me of reading the Hunger Games, not because of plot similarities but because I spent the whole time yelling at characters out loud and then grumbling while reading both stories. To clarify, the writing quality and drama are excellent - getting me riled up is the result of skillful, deliberate choices on the part of the author.)

And All the Sinners, Saints by angelsdemonsducks (Supernatural/Good Omens crossover, canon-divergent after the first apocalypse where Dean leaves Lisa’s on his own, started reading for the destiel but honestly the Aziraphale/Crowley is so good that I would read just that at this point)

Star Trek

The Importance of Choosing the Right Pediatrician by PrairieDawn (Star Trek OST, Amanda/Sarek, if you go by my tumblr it probably looks like I have no het ships, but I am so fucking into Amanda/Sarek it’s unreal, and this is the best Amanda/Sarek of all time. Really captures how both partners in the relationship would adapt for each other given their very different cultures. The early tags make it look like fluff that doesn’t go anywhere, but it doesn’t read that way at all. There is a ton of story conflict going on here in the form of high-stakes medical issues, cultural considerations, and the looming possibility of war with the Klingons.)

Welcome to 1951 series by PrairieDawn (Star Trek TOS/MASH crossover, Kirk/Spock + BJ/Hawkeye, goddamn this writer’s characterization and dialogue are always so damn good. This is not a silly crossover by any means. This is a legit, well-thought-out series of interactions with a solid ongoing plot behind them.)

Shadowhunters

Angelus ex Machina series by Blue (malec, canon-divergent, the parabatai bond getting way too strong, dipping the brothers in and out of a single shared consciousness - very fun stuff.)

Like Water by apathyinreverie (malec, canon-divergent, time travel, I love the trust between magnus and alec so much)

Mombasa Raha by amusawale (malec, canon-divergent, fooling around on vacation when you’re still in the closet back home, oh ho ho)

A Life Debt by Goody (malec, canon-divergent, Jace fucks up and Alec pays the price by becoming Magnus’ lifelong servant in exchange for sparing Jace’s life - I know this makes it sound like Magnus is a dick, but he’s not even remotely dick-ish here. On the contrary, Magnus already likes and respects Alec before any of this happens, and Alec basically has a nice time living at Magnus’ while people at the Institute angst and bemoan the drama on their own.)

For Family Values by SunsetSwish (malec, A/B/O but otherwise canon-divergent, Omega Alec ends up pregnant with a warlock baby and essentially living in exile from the super-racist Shadowhunter community. Alpha warlock Magnus takes him in so he can help with the magic baby stuff.)

Teen Wolf

Baby Daddy by DiscontentedWinter (sterek, Laura lives AU, Derek is all fucked up about the usual Kate-fire-related issues and Laura decides to rebuild the pack by asking Stiles to donate some sperm. Stiles is suffering from injured-Sheriff financial issues at the same time. I love angst.)

Music Tag Game

You can tell a lot about a person by the music they listen to. Put your music on shuffle and list the first 10 songs, then tag 10 people.

Okay, was tagged in this a few weeks ago by now, I think, but I suck. Deal with it. Anyway, was tagged by the lovely @theimmortalshadows. Lets get to it, ‘cause my music selection is a mess, and I have no idea, what’s gonna come up. I’ll give you my comments on the songs for shits and giggles, ‘cause honestly I’m as confused as you.

1. Showing Up by Alex G (starting out well with the youtubers)

2. Use Somebody by Kings of Leon (Omg, an oldie, but gotta admit it's a goodie as well)

3. Shackled Up by Alex Vargas

4. Oracle by Iselin Solheim (I do not know this song. How did I find this song? It is a good song, though)

5.Technicolour Beat by Oh Wonder (Okay, this band is so great and chill, and this song is probably The Song on the playlist I have for the main character of the book I'm writing. Gosh, I love it)

6. Never Getting Over You by Colbie Caillat (You know what, I'm not even gonna say anything. Judge me.)

7. Pretend It's Home by Beth Crowley (Badass song about Divergent (I have mixed feelings about the book, but the song is great). If you don't know her, find her on Youtube, she is a pearl, and I will never get over the fact that some malec art I did is in one of her lyric videos)

8. Dear Life by Delta Goodrem (not much to say, just a good pick me up)

9. Sad Song By We The Kings and Elena Coats (I'm pretty sure I have two versions of this song? Could have sworn I heard another one yesterday?!)

10. THE SCHUYLER SISTERS!!! (GOING OUT WITH A BANG AND OH MY GOD I AM STILL HAMILTON TRASH!!!)

Bonus (because while I was tagging this started playing and !!!!!): An Open Letter by Watsky ft Shockwave

So this was just as much of a ride, as I expected. Take or leave, I stand by all these song. Follow me on spotify for even more music that is all over the place genre-wise.

Okay, so tagging. The worst part of these tag games are the tagging. I'm just gonna do some random followers. If you don't wanna do it, don't. If you wanna do it and I didn’t tag you, just pretend I did. @star-of-terrasen @dance-punk-yurio @aguacatio @asmnerdy @chronically-captivating @toph-proudfoot @yinfenatic I know that wasn’t 10, but I don’t have to play by your rules.

My ramblings on Shadowhunters S02E01: The Guilty Blood

Aaand we’re back. You have no idea how impatient I was to finally watch this episode. Especially with all the gifs appearing on my dash from people who get to watch it before me. Grrr I’m so jealous.

Anyway, I didn’t plan on doing a fullscale rambling this season but turns out I have a lot of em. That’s just how keen I am.

You know the drill. SPOILERS below.

Huh. I don’t even remember that valentine in the library scene. Guess I should’ve gone back and watched that last episode before diving in to S2. Oh well.

Oh, i remember the evil speech though

“JOIN ME BLAH BLAH BLAH *cuts to everyone dead. whoops

wtf is Clary doing there? No way would she just run onto the ship without being seen.

#its a trick

…I don’t think that’s Clary. 

“whoops just killed a random. oh well”

KNEW IT! Jace is so gullible

hate to break it to  you, Shadowhunters. But you really need to find a new opening theme song. 

yaay Lydia

eeeee he said Alexander. 

Alec just blew off Magnus after yelling at everyone. well then.

 I mean, I love him, but I forget he’s also a jerk sometimes.  

Oh. phew. He’s apologising *goes back to forgetting he’s a jerk (he’s only slightly a jerk, I don’t really hold it against him)

As I was writing that he forgot he was supposed to be apologizing and now he’s yelling again. this is why we love him, right?

LUKE! YAAAY

SIMON WHOOOOOOO

ahahaha Simon trying to hide his teeth from Jocelyn. What a dweeb. Lool and now she’s all like “of course you would be so dumb”

Ewwww go back to your book, Aldertree! No one wants you here.

Dammit he actually looks quite charming. 

“Valentine will never break him” -cuts to Jace getting the crap beaten out of him. MY GOD THESE JUMP TRANSITIONS ARE BRILLIANT. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. 

(But seriously, hurry up and save him, guys)

Ohhhhh Aldertree is meeting with Clary. I hate this already

I can’t quite make out what kind of accent he has there. Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I need more scenes with him to figure it out. 

……Valentine is making spaghetti. This is too weird.

…pretty sure playing with knives was the first thing you taught him, Valentine.

*painful hesitation “It’s because I *chokes back vomit* love you son” *shudders -  so believable

are they…no they wouldn’t reveal that this soon. 

OMG THEY’RE DOING THE WHOLE DEMON BLOOD THING SO EARLY

Mind you, there was plenty of cut/pasting going on in the last season too, so I shouldn’t be so surprised. At least they’re not dragging it out. 

Guys. Alec and Magnus are fighting again. Alec is such a jerk

He’s like “Mag-ah forget it”

Ugh Aldertree is such a dick.

HE JUST KICKED OUT LUKE. WHAT AN ASSHOLE

It’s like kind of British, right? But like, not british

I hate aldertree so much. Even morre then I ever hated him in the book.

Fiine I looked it up, and he is British. he is also only a few years older than me. huh. 

HANG ON I just remembered that it’s supposed to be Imogen Herondale making everyone’s lives miserable instead of Aldertree. Wonder why they didn’t just bring her back. 

MAYBE THEY’RE GOING TO REVEAL WHO JACE IS WHILE SHE’S STILL ALIVE. I’m so down for that. 

Even Jocelyn’s pissing me off.

I was going to harp on Luke for encouraging Simon to chase after Clary and then I remembered that they still think Jace and Clary are related so he has no reason not to. dammit.

oooooh Simon’s in trouble

(seriously, though, why did Luke just leave him there. 

HE’S TRYING TO JEDI MIND TRICK THEM WHAT A DWEEB LOOOOOL

oh yeah, the demon blood thing.

jesus Valentine is such an asshole. 

oooh training sequence (actually this is one of the few sneak peak things I actually watched)

goodie now Alec gets to fight with Marys. Leave no one out, Alec. 

OMG IT’S CLARY. That one actually got me. Although i suppose I did find it odd that Aldertree would ever just show up to find Luke.

Don’t believe you, Jocelyn. Even book you wouldn’t help Clary run into danger

#knew it. Clary is also gullible

Alec’s trying to apologize again. 

He’s really sorry, guys. I think we should forgive him.

magnus doesn’t want to hear about your other boyfriend, Alec.

“Also, you’re getting better at apologies”

awwww he’s been working on it. 

And I’m squeeing. Dammit

GUYS ITS ONLY BEEN WEEKS WHAT EVEN

phew dodged that bullet simon

Do you think Magnus really needed Alec shirtless for this? Or was it just an added bonus

Ugh. Not all vampires are nice. I forget

Marys is so embarrassed by her children. lol

Dom Sherwood certainly has the moral struggling thing down pact. I’m not even cringing a little.

NOO HE ACTUALLY KILLED HER. I’M SO SAD

I am literally too shocked that Jocelyn tried to kill her apparent son to make too much comment on this.

So do you reckon Malec are going to be fighting a lot this season or what? Coz I’m not sure I can take much more of this sadness.

But anyway, the previously on kind of jumped out at me, and the opening  credit song needs changing.  Other than that it was a pretty good episode. Even though Malec are squabbling all the time, I still love them, and the real apology scene was adorable. I love you guys. And Any time Simon is on screen is a delight. I knoww I went on a lot about him last season but I love him even more in the show than I do in the books. Actually, I pretty much like all of these characters better in the show.

I JUST WANT THEM TO END THE CLACEST THING ALREADY AND WE’RE NOT EVEN UP TO THE DUMB LOVE TRIANGLE. (p.s. I am not at all looking forward to Climon. They were so adorable together in this episode and it’s going to break my heart how much more he loves her than she loves him. He doesn’t deserve that heartbreak).

Oh, and Aldertree is a dick. But you knew that already. I HATE THIS WAITING A WEEK FOR THE NEXT EPISODE NONSENSE WHY CAN’T WE JUST HAVE THEM ALL NOW. jokes we shouldn’t do that, I’d use up all my data bingeing it and not sleep.
