The dragon keeps kidnapping the princess because the kingdom keeps sending out that one specific knight to bring her back. The dragon is shy and awkward and how else is he supposed to flirt with the knight???
The princess being Clary, and dragon Alec actually kidnapped her on accident (the first time), because she was hiding in a barrell that he grabbed or something.
And the princess is annoying and there is the exit, if she could please just leave, please and thank you and good riddance.
But then there is this man. This beautiful, gorgeous, sparkly, magical man. Who has come to bring the princess home. And he would like to avoid a fight, because dragons are so rare already and he really isn't a fan of unnecessary blood shed, and would this sack of jewels possibly compensate for letting the princess Clarissa go? And Alec, mighty powerful dragon he might be, is tongue tied and awkward and so smitten! And he just nods, because yes yes, take the annoying princess, and no, he doesn't want to fight the man either. Oh, the jewels are pretty, but not as pretty as the man. And Alec is still trying to come up with the right words. Suave, charming, just something that might make the man want to stay a bit and … oh. they are gone. And actually the sun is starting to set. Apparently Alec has been tongue tied for quite some time… He didn't even get the name of the sparkly, magical, gorgeous man… … He will have to kidnap the annoying princess again if he wants another chance at talking to the man, won't he?

If you're still taking asks...I'd love a glimpse of a Sapphire AU - Alec isn't safe from the Clave for whatever reason and so the Warlocks do end up abducting him. The Warlocks are quite worried when he runs back to the Institute and are trying to figure out strategies to keep him safe in whatever way they can, except then he pops back up with his siblings. Of course he isn't going to leave them there once he gets out.
Okay, I adored this prompt. So much. Child!Alec would run back to the institute to make sure his younger siblings are okay and well before dragging them along with him. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this!
The distress call comes in the middle of a trial Magnus and the other Elders were overseeing. The squabble - and Magnus is being generous using that term - between Warlock Bail and Warlock Mordu would generally be something warlocks would settle between themselves. At most, a High Warlock would be involved to help mediate. So, the fact that both warlocks managed to drag the situation out to such an extent that it's being presented here in the hall of laws is laughable. The reason for their dispute is even more so. Magnus is already planning his escape route, a sudden emergency that would save him from listening to both warlocks drone on about the other having stolen their spell. Stolen. Even Magnus doesn't have the arrogance to claim to own a spell. He's about to open his mouth and make his escape when a sudden wave of pain-panic-fear makes him clench his hand around his seat hard enough for the wood to crack. The first wave is followed by a stronger second one that wipes all rational thought out of Magnus' mind because he needs him Alec needs him his little heart needs him and needs him and needs him and Magnus is not there.
There are voices calling his name but Magnus barely registers them, barely registers anything through the terror that has him tearing a hole through the labyrinth's foundations to portal to Alec's side.
All it takes is one look at the scared, tear-filled eyes for Magnus to incinerate every last Nephilim holding his little heart captive.
The shadowhunters don't have the time to react to Magnus' sudden appearance before they drop dead to the floor, their bodies scorching beyond recognition.
Magnus has already made it back to his loft, his young soulmate cradled safely into his eyes before he realizes all shadowhunters in that room had a circle rune branded into their skin.
"We can't let him go back," Elder Ndlovu says. Her voice is strained, worry visible in every line on her face and Magnus doubts he looks any better.
A warlock.
Magnus had barely believed his eyes when he'd caught sight of the small silvery-white scales - some of which had been ripped off - that decorated the young boy's skin. The warlock mark had looked out of place next to Alec's black runes and yet-
"No, we can't," Magnus agrees, his fingers clench around Alec's small, ice-cold hand. "How is he? What did they drug him with?"
Catarina grimaces. "I can't say for sure," she says apologetically. "It almost looks like they tried to drug him with everything under the sun. That or the Circle has taken a newfound interest in alchemy and potion-making - either is possible. But, I've managed to neutralize the Yin Fen, the fairy dust, and shaxweed pollen at least."
"I'm sorry - Yin Fen, fairy dust, and shaxweed pollen?" Elder Ndlovy asks incredulously, her face a mixture of horror and rage. "What the fuck were they planning to do with the child?"
"A shadowhunter-warlock hybrid capable of bearing runes - I don't think we need to guess what they were planning to do."
The lightbulbs in the bedroom explode. Again.
Catarina and Elder Ndlovu don't even react this time around. Catarina continues her monitoring of Alec's health, keeping an eye on his vitals now that his wounds have been healed and he only needs to work through the drugs they poisoned him with. Meanwhile, Elder Ndlovu banishes the glass shards with a wave of her hand, replacing the shattered lightbulbs with new ones for the fifth time.
Alec doesn't wake up until the next morning.
In that time, Ragnor and Catarina both have offered to take him in, as have Elder Ndlovu and Conan. Yet, as much as Magnus wants to accept each of the offers, he can't. Not without Alec's input.
Magnus just hopes it won't be too hard to convince the young boy that returning to his Nephilim life would be too dangerous.
Valentine might be dead - and even then, Magnus has his doubts - but the Circle was clearly still operating. And that is without taking into account the danger that the Clave would present if they were to ever find out their pure, angelic blood had been tainted in such a way.
They tell Alec as much.
While Magnus technically shouldn't be present for the conversation, the other Elders don't dare to stop him. Whether that's because he managed to inadvertently remind them how powerful he is by managing to do the impossible yet again, or because of the severity of the situation, Magnus doesn't know.
Whichever the reason though, Magnus is thankful for it because he would have promptly lost his mind if the last image he saw of Alec was of him still and lifeless in a too-large bed.
The discussion goes better than expected. And worse.
Alec is calm. Almost worryingly so. He carefully listens to Conan and Catarina's explanations, nods, and shakes his head when asked questions, the occasional mono-syllabic word escaping his lips when they ask him for more information. But he doesn't ask after his parents. He doesn't cry or scream when recounting what had happened for him to end up in the situation he was in.
The revelation about Alec's warlock status doesn't come as a surprise either, which considering the warlock mark on his back was to be expected. But, even then, Magnus had expected more. More anger. More sadness. More betrayal and grief and regret at the thought of losing the life he had lived until now. Not this-
This quiet subdued acceptance.
The Elders agree to let Alec stay another few days in Magnus' loft under Catarina's and Elder Ndlovu surveillance. The mixture of substances the Circle members drugged Alec with is still making its way through his system and placing him in an entirely new environment when he's still healing is the last thing the young child needs in his current situation unless they want to make sure he tries to run away.
Or so they thought.
Magnus is sleeping in bed, Chairman Meow lying curled up in his arms when a tingle warning him that someone passed through his wards wakes him up. The disturbance is nothing more than a minute tremble, a tingle that barely registers in his sleep-addled mind.
Magnus is halfway back to sleep when his mind registers that the disturbance carried a distinctive Nephilim signature.
Within seconds, Magnus is wide awake and racing to the guest bedroom where Catarina and Alec had been staying only to find one bed - Alec's bed - empty.
The noise of the door swinging open and smacking against the wall startles Catarina awake who looks at him strangely until her eyes follow his gaze to the empty, abandoned bed in which Alec should be sleeping.
"You don't think he-"
Magnus clenches his fists painfully. He knew Alec had been too docile. Too calm. He might not have seen the boy in years, but there was no way that the child who had sworn with so much conviction that he would make all the other shadowhunters like him, would just nod and bear it when his life got upended in the span of a few hours.
By the time they manage to track him, Alec has made his way back inside the dangerous walls of the New York Institute.
Magnus is forced to call the other Elders back ahead of schedule to alert them of the new situation as well as hopefully help him come up with a plan that would keep the young child safe without starting an outright war with the local institute or the Clave.
He is on the verge of throwing caution to the wind and stepping foot inside the New York Institute without a prior invitation when his wards tingle again, a request for entry made by one familiar angelic signature and three unfamiliar ones.
Magnus is halfway to his entrance door by the time the others notice the angelic signatures waiting for them outside. His heart is pounding in his throat as he needs to make sure the small, precious child is still safe and unharmed. Or as safe and unharmed as possible with what was very nearly a lethal amount of Yin Fen and fairy dust in his blood.
His hands are shaking when he pulls the door open, unsure what sight is going to greet him on the other side, only to stop short when he notices the two smaller, even younger children standing behind Alec, as well as the baby in the young boy's arms. A baby that is being handed to him."

Helped
Tumblr media
Warnings: Panic attacks/ mentions of kidnapping
Y/n sits on the sand as they stare into the water. They had come down to the beach to feel calm, but it didn’t seem to help. Their kid had gone missing, and some would argue it wasn’t their kid since they adopted the kid. But to them it was, and to the kid named Charlie. The two visited the beach a lot together that it was hard not to think about him
Their body begins to shake. Their whole body felt like the waves they were seeing before them. Each thought was crashing into them. Y/n tries to calm themselves down by deep breathing, but couldn’t since they remembered they taught Charlie how to help them during panic attacks
‘Oh how he knew how to help me during a time like this…’ they thought as the panic takes over them. They’re sweating profusely as they find themselves not being able to breathe anymore. ‘Where is my baby boy?!’ They thought as they shook so violently against the sand
Tears left their eyes now too, and they could feel every part of them becoming numb now. ‘Why couldn’t I see the trouble you were in to begin with? I’m an awful parent… they could take him back because of what I’ve done…’ the negative thoughts consumed them as they started to sob as they shook
Alec Hardy ends up seeing this, and instantly rushes over towards them. He had pure panic on his face as he worried for them. He hadn’t cared about his reputation at that moment when someone he cared about was on the verge of passing out because of their panic attack
Once he sat next to them, they looked at him. He hugs them, not caring about the sand beneath him that he hates so much. “I’m a terrible parent Alec” they start as he starts to rub their back. “No you’re not. This isn’t your fault Y/n. You’re an excellent parent!” He says truthfully
“No I’m not” they add as they find themselves finding comfort in his hug. “Yes you are. You’re the best parent in BroadChurch!” He says with a small smile forming on his face. This made them start to feel better. The man they’ve been crushing on for so long comforting them during one of their panic attacks
He knew they had panic attacks at times, but never saw one of them until today. “Thanks. Alec I have to tell you something important” he stops rubbing their back, and stops hugging them now as he looks at them now. “As long as it’s something positive” he says, which makes them smile and nod their head as they wiped their tears away
“I like you” they said without hesitation as they continued to smile. His smile brightens up now at the news. He kisses them on their lips, which they gladly returned. Once the two pulled apart, he continues to smile. “I love you Y/n” he admits as Ellie was walking up to the two
Ellie had Charlie by her side who was nervous to see his parent again because he believes they would think it was his fault. Before Y/n could respond, they could see Charlie in the corner of their eye next to Ellie. Y/n quickly got up, and rushes over to him with tears leaving their eyes again
Ellie starts to happy tear up as well once Y/n was in front of the two. They didn’t hug Ellie first, but they hugged their son first. He was tearing up too. “I’m so glad you’re back my baby boy” they said as Alec stood behind them. “You’re not mad at me Mapa?” They stopped hugging him, and looked at him
“Of course not sweetheart. It wasn’t your fault” they said, which makes him hug them. “I’m sorry if I made you think you’d be in trouble. But the one who’s definitely in trouble is the one who took you” they said, which makes him smile a bit. He sees Alec, and stops hugging them and goes over to him
Y/n stands up straight as they looked at the two. “I’ve missed you little buddy” Alec says, which makes Ellie surprised. “Wow, he does have a soft spot” she says as Alec bents down to Charlie’s level to give him a hug. Y/n’s tears left faster as the two hugged each other
“Well I now know who Alec has a soft spot for” Ellie says, which makes them look at her. “He has for a while to be honest” they said as they looked back at the two. The two still hugged each other, which made Y/n a little jealous. Alec could tell, and told them to join in on the longest hug on earth
Y/n smiles, and then finds themselves in the hug as well. Ellie leaves the family to be, and smiles at the sight she saw today

actually need a full documentary of the shit that went down during the day alec managed to get kidnapped really
9:00 AM - Magnus kisses Alec goodbye before he leaves for his Consul duties. No biggie.
12:00 PM - Magnus sent Alec a couple of texts the past few hours but there's no reply and he hasn't even seen them, but that's okay. He's busy.
3:00 PM - Magnus is starting to get worried at this point, calls Isabelle who tells him that Alec left for some urgent meeting this morning. Magnus wonders how long this meeting will take. Still no reply from Alec.
6:00 PM - Now Magnus is getting restless. He's never gone this long without talking to Alec. Usually Alec texts him something or the other, even in the middle of busy meetings, but there's nothing today.
9:00 PM - The children are getting restless, too. Magnus consoles them and puts them to bed. At this point, the meeting should've been over, right? He calls Alec, but Alec never picks up. His texts are still left unread.
10:31 PM - The first fire message arrives. "We have the Consul. Cooperate with us, or else..."

Whumptober 2022 Day 6: Ransom Video
Just a classic 'steal the hitter and try to bargain with his partners for something they have that bad guys want'
Maybe he gets kidnapped after the carnival job, while he's already weakened, and the ransom is for the chip that they just retrieved and returned to its maker. Nate and Sophie are out at dinner when the video comes through, so it's just Hardison and Parker who see it first.

When your pet dragon brings you a sparkly
Just had this thought about how we are always like: what if Magnus was a dragon, kidnapping Alec? or what if Alec was a dragon, kidnapping Magnus? or what if both were dragons, kidnapping each other?
But how about: what if Alec had a dragon, that one day came back, having just napped Magnus, and be all like:
lookit, lookit! I found a shiny. Lookit! I brought you a sparkly shiny. Praise me for bringing you the sparkly shiny.
And Alec is torn between "omg my dragon just kidnapped someone." And also "Is it bad that a part of me is thinking that that means I get to keep him?"
And Magnus is like "Weirdest kidnapping ever, but not bad."
And the dragon is hopping around like an overexcited dog.

"how do i look?" / alec & o / @thewholecrew
Tumblr media
octavia was curled up in the middle of the bed, with the hotel blanket wrapped around her shoulders. after a few too many free drinks and a lot of sun, octavia was finally calling it quits for one evening while alec, however, seemed to have different plans.
she giggled, head shaking as alec and kassy appeared from the large bathroom to show off kassy's handy work. "baaaaabe," octavia called from the bed, eyes brightening despite the pounding headache in her head. "alec, you look hot as fuck!! seriously, your date isn't going to know what hit 'em! c'mere, lemme see!" octavia encouraged, stretching out her hand to motion alec closer. kassy told alec to give a little spin, and of course, he did, showing off his gorgeous fishnets.
"ugh, have the best time, all right!?" octavia pouted, wishing with everything that she was tagging along with the two for their night out. she had to admit when the two of them suggested that they were still heading out to the club tonight without her, anxiety prickled along her skin. but alec had insisted he was meeting someone later tonight, and he couldn't miss it. supposedly, it was their last night at the resort, and who was octavia to stand in the way of alec's fun time? that's why they'd come on this vacation together, hadn't they? to remember what it was like to fully submerge themselves in fun after all the hell they'd been through. so while she trusted the two to watch out for each other, she still would've felt better going along with them.
"call me if you need me?" octavia said, swirling her finger at both of them to make a point before kassy bounced over to her, pressing a kiss to her forehead as she slipped the tv remote into her hand. emerald hues rolled, swatting at kassy's butt as her best friend turned to link arms with alec. "love you both! be saaafe!"

i love the lassiez-faire approach the shadowhunters writers took to some situations. they were like well this needs to happen we don’t really know how to make it make sense in a short time so we’ll just throw some absolute bullshit out there and hope no one questions it!! but we are absolutely NOT writing this in a way that actually makes sense!!!! real

Malec on their honeymoon plzzz
“You know how I’ve been saving your asses for the past few years and how the lot of you would have been dead ten times over if I wasn’t there?” Magnus says to Izzy and Jace as he enters the institute.
The two of them look up at him and frown. “Yes?”
“I’m here to collect.”
“I don’t know what we could possibly give you considering you already own the Consul.” Jace smirks.
He’s an idiot.
He’s also right.
But what Magnus needs might piss off Raziel himself.
But fuck Raziel.
Stupid Raziel is chilling in the angel city while his husband has been drowning in stress and work.
“Are you going to help me or not? It involves light kidnapping.”
Jace and Izzy’s eyes gleam, and they nod their heads frantically in agreement.
It takes Magnus less than six hours to organise everything with the help of the two of them.
He wakes up the next day with a warm body pressed tightly against his. Alec’s head was resting on his chest.
Alec stirs in his sleep and lets out a small sigh.
Magnus smiles and starts carding his fingers through Alec’s hair.
A small smile appears on Alec’s face, and he finally opens his eyes.
“Morning, my love.”
Alec shifts even closer to Magnus and rests his chin on his chest. “Morning.”
His smile is so infectious that Magnus finds it impossible not to smile back.
He remembers a time when Alec’s smile used to be rare. Now, he smiles easily.
Magnus would gladly go to war to keep that smile on his face.
Alec leans upwards and kisses his lips softly. He rests his head back on Magnus’s chest and turns slowly—his eyes darting across the room.
Alec’s eyes widen, and he sits up immediately. “What the hell?”
He removes the comforter and walks out to the balcony to look around.
“Magnus! Where are we?” Alec inquires, a frown on his face.
“I can assure you there’s a very good explanation for this.”
“About why we’re in the middle of the mountains and not back home where we are supposed to be?” Alec says exasperatedly.
“Yes.”
Alec shakes his head. “Okay. Explain.”
Uh..well. Magnus hadn’t really prepared for that part.
His plan was to kiss Alec and shut him up.
“Magnus?”
“You have been so stressed lately. You needed a break, darling.” He explains.
Alec sighs. “I can’t afford a break right now Magnus. It’s only been three months since the Clave got divided. There’s so much to do I—“
Magnus walks towards Alec and wraps his arms around him. “Everyone deserves a break every once in a while, love. I talked to your siblings and Mark and Diego. Everyone will manage without you for a week.”
“A week??”
Magnus chuckles at his scandalised face. “I promise you the shadowhunter race won’t combust if we’re not there for a week.”
“Without me. Maybe.” Alec smiles, his body releasing some tension. “Without you? They’d be extinct by tomorrow night.”
He grins. “We never went on our honeymoon, you know. I thought this would be the best time to give you a break plus have our honeymoon.”
Alec drops his gaze. “I’m sorry, baby. I know things have been a mess lately. You deserve better than a lousy vacation.”
Magnus gasps dramatically. “Alexander Gideon Lightwood, did you just call a vacation that I planned, lousy? That’s ground for divorce.”
“You’re not allowed to divorce me. I’ll add a No-divorce clause in the law. I’m the Consul.” Alec grins.
Magnus shakes his head fondly. “That’s abuse of power.”
Alec pushes Magnus gently towards the bed and straddles his lap. “Says the man who just kidnapped his own husband for their honeymoon.”
“A man has needs Alexander. I needed a full week of you roaming naked, without any interruptions.”
Alec giggles and bends down to bite his neck gently. “Magnus it’s freezing out here. If you wanted me naked, you should have taken us to someplace warmer.”
Magnus fake sighs. “I guess we’ll just have to share body heat.”
Alec hums and wraps his arms tighter around Magnus’s neck. “Hey.”
“Hmm.”
“Thank you for doing this.”
Magnus pushes a strand of hair from Alec’s face gently and kisses him. “There are some ground rules.”
Alec let out a soft chuckle. “On our honeymoon? Let’s hear it.”
“You’re not allowed to shave for a week.”
His husband shakes his head fondly at him. “Fine. But you’re not allowed to use any hair products then.”
“Deal.” Magnus runs his hand along Alec’s back and then inside his shirt, making the other man shiver slightly.
Alec’s eyes widen suddenly. “What about the boys? Where are they?”
“They are both monsters, Alexander. Kept on giving me the puppy eyes, making me feel guilty for not taking them.” Magnus groans.
Alec chuckles against his throat. “They get the dramatics from you.“
Magnus smacks his chest lightly and huffs. “I had to blackmail Blueberry with another brother orra sister since he’s already bored with Rafe. Rafael was a little harder to handle, he cried a little. You need to talk him once.”
It hasn’t been long since they got Rafael, and separation from either of them was still very hard on the boy.
Alec’s breath quickens at that, but Magnus puts a hand on his chest. “Hey, he’s okay. He’ll be fine. We’ll call them every day and if it gets bad, we can always get them here.”
The shadowhunter relaxed at the words. “Okay.”
“I sent a binder to Maryse. It lists everything from the boys food preferences to their sleep patterns. Your siblings and everyone else will handle your work. You just need to relax now and let me pamper you.”
Alec grabbed Magnus’s face in both his hands and crashed their mouths together in a deep kiss. Magnus moans softly against his lips and tightens his hold on him.
“I really really love you. Did you know that?” Alec breathes when they break apart.
Magnus’s eyes soften.
If only Alec knew how much Magnus loved him.
He wishes he could explain it to Alec, but his love for Alec wasn’t something he could ever put into words.
Not even to Alec himself.
“The whole list thing is doing it for you right?” He grins.
Alec groans. “Of course it’s doing it for me.”
Magnus giggles.
“Hey.”
“Hmm”
“Happy honeymoon, sweetheart.”
Alec’s smiles widen, and Magnus wants to capture this moment for an eternity.
“Happy honeymoon, baby.”
