16 for the ask list you just posted!
Hello! :)
16 - thoughts on mint chocolate chip?
What's not to love about it? Mint on its own: delicious. Chocolate on its own: nothing short of divine. Together? It's a feast for the taste buds. The crispiness and freshness of mint with the sweetness and warmth of chocolate, the perfect alliance of flavours. I'm a fan.
weirdly specific and unrelated asks to know someone well

A baby update from @bytheangell and I 👶🏻
As many of you know, we have been trying our best to save and raise funds to support our IUI journey to have a baby. When we had initially estimated the costs of this journey, we were hopeful that the IUI treatment would be mostly covered by insurance. Unfortunately, a month ago, we received the news that it would not be. Now we know that each IUI attempt that we have will cost an estimated $2,750. With that said, we have made the decision to start with one IUI cycle before the end of the year. 🎉 We feel in our hearts that the time is right for us to try and we're almost at the goal we would need for a first attempt. All funds raised will go toward sperm, required medication, and one round of IUI. This is only for the FIRST attempt, so any other funds raised will be saved for any future attempts that may be needed and/or hopefully toward our future child. This isn't a decision we have made lightly. Realistically, if this attempt does not end in a pregnancy, we will have to start back at square one financially (and mentally/emotionally) in order to try again. We believe, though, that this is the best way for us to start our family. Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated, who will donate, and to all who have continuously shared our link and supported this journey in any way they can. It truly brings tears to our eyes to see the love that surrounds us.

Shadowhunters Mini Bang 2023
Art for Let Your Guard Down Written by Elle (ByTheAngell)

Rating: Teen and Up
Relationships: Alec Lightwood x Magnus Bane
Summary: When Alec joins color guard as a favor to Magnus and Clary, it's supposed to be a one-time thing. He doesn't expect to fall in love with more than just performing.

six sentence sunday!

He noticed Lorenzo's gaze land on something else behind him and frowned when Lorenzo stepped into his house without a proper invitation, with his shoes on, and made a beeline for Izzy to shake her hand. "The resemblance is startling! You must be Mr Lightwood's sister," Lorenzo said with a wide smile. "Now that you've taken a look around, could I tempt you to buy a house in this estate as well? You'd be so close to your brother, and that's always wonderful, isn't it?" "I'm not really looking for my own place, and not so far from New York City. It's inconvenient for my work," Izzy replied with a smile that didn't look forced at all, which was her particular talent.

Tag Game 🎉
tagged by @arialerendeair :) ❤ thank you
Favorite Color: oh god are there any colors not to like. but i enjoy what i believe is properly called 'millennial pink', and also the sort of chestnut/burnt orange color of some horses (like the one in my pfp hehe)
Currently Reading: i've been reading The Attention Merchants on and off for a while, a very good history of advertising and how it is a plague upon our existence 👍 and i recently finished Iron Widow. lots of satisfying rage in that book
Last Song: i'm constantly playing stuff so there's never a proper last song but some favs recently are Kiss Me You Animal by Burn the Ballroom (from my Dream/Corinthian playlist, yeah, i can't lie, i kind of ship it. but in the most toxic 'i want to destroy you. please love me' way possible) >> "cuz everyone knows that teeth are where your heart was, love"
and Hunger by Florence & the Machine from my Dreamling playlist :) >> "you make a fool of death with your beauty"
Last Movie: it's been too long 😥 but i'm rewatching one of my first great loves Hannibal for the millionth time :) even tho i still haven't finished sandman...........
Sweet/Savory/Spicy: savory, at least as of late
Currently Working On: aria you are a vibe with the million wips. i have in waking dreams, which is the the dream-marriage fic; magnusbae and i's unhinged 'sugar baby' au; another dreamling / dream-centric thing about reconstructing your life after catastrophe and relearning how to create; that one that i half posted and have to finish... and i finally figured out what was wrong with ch 5 of IRL and picked that up again. malec i will not abandon you
Tagging @magnusbae, @silver-lily-louise, @bytheangell, @dr-lemurr 🥰🥰 enjoy

one is a user that has many Malec and Clace if you like those ships, is called Bytheangel in Ao3
And the other is purplebass in ao3
They havent posted many gabrily or gabrily fam lately, but the ones they have are cool!
I'll definitely check out Bytheangel, I've never heard of them. I do really like Clace and Malec, but probably not enough to seek out fic for them. But I'll take a peek at what they offer!
And PURPLEBASS IS A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE @luciehercndale, I'm meeting her in a couple of months! I love her Thomastair and Wessa fics. She's excellent and so talented!

thanks! also, I was rewatching that scene of 'your handsome friend took care of everything' 'underhill?' 'you think he his handsome?' nad was lmao magnus calm down pls but know wanna read some fanfic with jealous magnus or alec, do you know any?
That's such a great little scene cause they're both just being absolutely goofy about it.
I've had this little ficlet that's specifically commentary from that episode bookmarked for ages and it's quite sweet.
Okay, so evidently I'm not reading a lot of specific jealous fic, but if you like au's I have some suggestions. These do have jealousy in a way and it's handled well with them both trusting one another, being kinda cute about it.
I Fell in Love WIth You Suddenly, Welcome to the Show, In My Head and Just Say Yes by AlxSteele are set in the AU from the season one episode (it's a great series in general also btw).
Keeping It Real by ByTheAngell is a nice little jealousy from mistunderstanding fic.
The closest I can think of otherwise are fics, where it's less jealousy and more 'god I wish that were me' about everything from another person to a wine glass before they get together lol.

For the malec prompts, 7, t, 22 ? Feel free to change stuff if you prefer!
*so i used this to my advantage a bit so this can be read as a prequel-sequel to my previous fic the number of heartbeats between here and there. also it's a bit canon divergent because of the parameters of the request!* 7. deleted scene | t. secret relationship | 22. "i'm going to need you to put on some underwear before you say anything else."
To: Alexander – 1:23am
Did you still want me to come over tonight? I know it’s later than we had planned but…been thinking about you 🥰
To: Magnus – 1:26am
Sorry I was in the shower but yeah please come if you still can!
To: Alexander – 1:27am
Pretty boy.
To: Alexander – 1:27am
Handsome.
To: Alexander – 1:27am
Angel.
To: Magnus – 1:28am
…yeah?
To: Alexander – 1:28am
I always want to see you. Do you want to see me?
To: Magnus – 1:28am
Yes definitely
To Alexander – 1:29am
Then I’ll be over quicker than you can say my name
Magnus made his way around the sprawling architecture of the New York Institute, looking for the wing of living quarters. The buttresses that framed the familiar third-story window would have made fair footholds for scaling the building, but there were better methods available to him. Twisting his index and middle fingers, he summoned a dense amalgamation of magic beneath his feet that expanded upwards. Fortunately, Alec had left the window unlatched and slightly ajar, allowing Magnus to slip through and land soundlessly in a crouch.
Just as he straightened up, the bathroom door opened and damp steam from the shower billowed out. Alec emerged, naked save for a towel wrapped around his waist, but when he caught sight of Magnus, an almost smug smile pulled at his lips. “Hey,” he greeted, striding over to kiss him softly, one hand gently cradling Magnus’ cheek while the other held the towel in place at his hipbone.
“Is this for me?” Magnus teased, running the soft outer part of his forefinger along the damp skin of Alec’s bare chest. “How thoughtful.”
Alec laughed boisterously, his ears faintly pink with a warm blush. “Sorry to disappoint you but that was just a happy accident. Patrol ran late and I had to deal with— Well, that doesn’t really matter.”
Clicking his tongue in disapproval, Magnus shook his head. “How can I be disappointed with this outcome, unintentional as it may be.” He skated his palms up to Alec’s upper back and reverently drew them down across the planes of muscle until he got down to the small of his back. His fingertips dug into the soft skin above his buttocks needfully, pressing just hard enough that his blunt nails would leave behind little crescents if one were to look hard enough. “I still come out victorious in this scenario, I think.”
>> READ ON AO3
The way that Alec smiled at him, tired and weary but endlessly soft, made Magnus feel like his heart were being squeezed just this side of painful. It was the most vulnerable he had ever seen him, and it was simply theirs to share.
“Hey, Magnus… Why did you agree to this, us, like this?” Alec gestured vaguely. His eyebrows drew tightly together in consternation, and Magnus fought the urge to kiss the skin between into relaxing. “Why are you willing to hide with me?”
It had been a few weeks since their conversation about an arranged marriage for the sake of preserving the Lightwood legacy and foothold in the New York Institute. Maybe it was some kind of desperation that had driven Magnus to be so cavalier about his willingness to accept the “don’t ask, don’t tell” mentality of shadowhunters. The thought of losing the first spark of hope in love that he had had in over a century was excruciating, and concealing it so meticulously was a high price, but he was paying it. In a way, though, keeping this fragile thing between them a secret, left to grow in discretion, felt a little like a relief. Whatever it may be with time, it was theirs alone.
At the silence, Alec licked his lips nervously and started to say something.
Instead, Magnus held up a finger to his mouth to quiet him anticipatorily. Through a roguish grin, he said, “I’m going to need you to put on some underwear before you say anything else. I want to give that question the answer it deserves, but that’s a tremendous ask when you’re up against me like this.”
Alec rolled his eyes as if it were nothing more than a line, but there was something in his eyes that betrayed his self-satisfaction. And that was exactly what Magnus had intended. “All right, well then, look away.”
Magnus turned his back with exaggerated movements and crossed his arms over his chest with a smile. It was nice to have someone to be this way with again; it felt like liberation to have someone with whom he was free to be himself without the burden of titles and expectations. He was exposed when he stripped away the personas and facades that were like secondary skins. They were facets of himself that people expected him to have, but Alec never seemed to want him to be anything but Magnus. Not Magnus Bane, not High Warlock Bane, not Prince Regent of Edom.
“Are you decent?” Magnus teased after the sounds of fabric on skin had subsided.
In response, Alec came up behind him and leaned in just enough that his chest brushed Magnus’ back. “All done.”
Magnus shifted his weight to lean back into Alec lightly and reached back to thread his fingers into Alec’s still-damp hair. Softly scratching his nails through the soft strands made Alec hum contentedly. “We should sit so we can discuss your question.”
“Can we lay down?”
“Of course.”
They climbed on the bed over the sheets and comforter, and Alec immediately rolled over so Magnus could curl up behind him. He even lifted his arm away from his chest so Magnus could slide an arm over his hip bone and anchor his hand on his abdomen. This was something they had done once before—bearing their heart to anyone was hard for both of them, but this way made it a little easier.
Magnus took a slow breath, gathering his thoughts appropriately. “You’re a possibility, Alexander. A beautiful, liberating possibility that I’ve never had the fortune to come across in all my life.”
Ever melancholy, Alec replied, “How can you feel that way when I’m basically shoving you back in the closet with me, and asking you to sneak around and be ashamed of something that should be so simple. It makes me feel like a child to ask you to…stoop this low.”
“It was my choice, Alec. I chose to put myself in the position I’m in. And for the record,” Magnus added, pressing his lips to the back of Alec’s ear, “I’m glad that I did.”
Alec pressed back perceptibly closer to him, ducking his head to press into the crook of Magnus’ neck in a self-soothing gesture. “You’re not just saying that so that I feel less guilty, right? Because it doesn’t work if you don’t mean it.”
Many times throughout Magnus’ life he had been in the position of feeling at the disadvantage with the people he loved. He worried himself sick over whether he was being too clingy, too transparent, too vulnerable, and then he overcorrected and worried about being too aloof, too distant, and too unavailable. The cyclical questioning and self-doubt had ruined a lot of encounters before they even had the chance to become something concrete. Even now, there was a seed of doubt about what he was doing with Alec—maybe he was giving him too much credit, and maybe putting his own heart on the line was naïve.
“I don’t have the luxury of knowing what will come of this, Alexander,” he said carefully, “but I am certain that never giving it the chance would be something I would always regret. Will I always be content to be the soul of discretion in regards to you and what we may feel? Likely not. But you didn’t ask me for forever, and I’m not asking you either. I think both of us just needed the chance to be worth the risk of seeing it through to whatever end it might reach.”
Warm calloused fingers made their way down Magnus’ arm to lace between his own and squeeze gently. “I can live with that.”
Magnus chuckled and pressed a kiss to Alec’s hair. “I hope you can do more than that.”
“Mmm.” Alec yawned and rolled slightly, taking Magnus with him. “For now, though, I’m just going to sleep with it.”
“‘It’ being me?”
“By the angel,” Alec groaned, exasperated yet fighting a smile. “You talk too much sometimes.” Before Magnus could reply, he had captured his lips in a languorous kiss. Each one they shared felt like a discovery that Alec relished, unrehearsed and uncertain but wholehearted in the best way. The anticipation and enthusiasm of each new moment they shared was somehow so much better than any shared with Magnus’ most experienced ex-lovers.
Magnus pulled away just enough that their lips parted but their noses still touched. “I thought you wanted to sleep.”
“This is even better than my white noise machine. Having you here is…peaceful.”
“Aren’t you a romantic,” Magnus said dryly. But when Alec pulled him close again, he was helpless to resist.

grumpy cook raphael, waiter simon, feel free to toss Jace into the mix if you want ;)
Raphael finishes plating, sliding it onto the serving area and ringing the bell. He turns back to his stove, making sure the sauce is the perfect consistency. 
“Hey, Raphael?”
Raphael lets out a long sigh, looking through the serving window and finding brown eyes staring back at him. “Yes, Simon?”
“I have someone wondering if  they could order the porterhouse, cut into eight pieces, with two of the pieces done medium rare and then the other six pieces cooked well done?”
Raphael blinks slowly. “I’m sorry what?”
“Yeah,” Simon continues on. “And then they’d like it served on eight different plates. And all the sides divided on all the plates so there’s a little on each plate. Can we do that?”
Raphael’s mouth opens and closes a few times before a slew of explicits leave his lips, cursing the customer out in Spanish. After a moment to compose himself he turns back to Simon, seeing his face bright red and he tries to keep himself from laughing. 
“I’m so sorry but I’m just kidding, Raphael. I figured if I start with something insane, you wouldn’t mind doing an order of loaded fries divided on to two plates since that’s easy.” 
Simon gives him a giant smile, one so big his dimples pop. Raphael narrows his eyes. “Fine,” he says. “But if you ever come back here asking for something so outrageous again I’ll fire you.”
Simon chuckles warmly. “Whatever you say, boss!”
Raphael shakes his head, turning back to stirring his sauce, wondering how he can repay his husband later.
