Writing Patterns ✒️
Tagged by @typicalopposite!! Thank you, dear!
rules: list the first line of your last 10 posted fics and see if there’s a pattern.
The Word of Your Body (RWRB): Paris is gorgeous the way most European cities are.
Can I Have This Dance (RWRB): “My mum and dad loved dancing,” Henry says. “It was their love language.”
Enchanted To Meet You (RWRB): Alex first spots the man in the hidden corner of one of the town’s alleyways.
I Need Comfort (But I Hate Being Comfortable) (RWRB): Henry wakes up feeling dazed.
I’d Hang the Moon for It to Shine on Him Sleeping (RWRB): Henry wakes up the day after the confrontation with his grandfather, in his bed in Kensington Palace, Alex’s arms around his waist and face tucked in the junction between his neck and shoulder, a solid weight lined up against his own body, yet Henry has never felt lighter.
Dancing Under Red Skies (Malec): Red.
The End of All Things (Malec): Here's their story.
Take Me Out and Take Me Home (Malec): Tokyo glows in the nightlight, a city of tall buildings and technicolour lights, humming with a quiet, steady beat at the end of a busy day. 
Achilles Come Down (Malec): It's the first time someone has ever found him here, it’s Izzy, and he’s 14.
Dreaming Of Paradise (Malec): Alec, in a rare moment of his life, knows that he’s dreaming.
I guess the pattern I can say is I tend to cut to the chase? In Chinese we call it 開門見山 Kai Men Jian Shan "Open the Door and you see the mountain". This phrase has been repeated in my Chinese writing class so many times during high school lol

Starting off my birthday month by giving y'all some ✨ pain ✨
This whole fic is based on one angsty movie dialogue and Thule Malec......so you know double pain 😊
*********
"Do you ever wonder what life would be like if we were ordinary?" Magnus asked, staring at the ceiling.
They were still lazing in bed even though it was already mid-morning. The previous few mornings had been spent like this, wrapped in sheets and talking about the most random things, until one of them got hungry enough to get up and make breakfast (or in Magnus’s case, summon it). No one knew they were back from vacation already and neither Alec nor Magnus was in any hurry to tell them.
"Ordinary? Like if we were mundanes?" Alec asked.
"Yeah, because I do".
This piqued Alec’s curiosity. "And what do we do in our ordinary lives?" he asked. 
"You do a regular, boring 9-5 job, I wait for you to come home and give me attention”. 
Alec chuckled. “What else?”
Magnus turned towards him and raised himself slightly. “On the weekends we do laundry and taxes. Maybe host a barbecue once in a while".
“And who does the grilling?”
“You of course,” Magnus replied sunnily. “Or maybe Jace or any of our other friends. But not Isabelle”.
“Not Isabelle,” Alec agreed. "Do we still live in New York?"
"We could live wherever,” Magnus said. “New York, London, Florence, Mumbai, Tokyo, anywhere. Any special preferences?"
Alec shook his head. "Any place is fine as long as it’s you I wake up next to. Whichever city, whichever country, whichever universe".
Magnus smiled. “Alexander Gideon Lightwood, you will be the death of me,” he said and kissed him for a long time.
~~~~~
The memory felt like a lifetime ago. Alec wished he could go back to that time when life was so simple and the only thing he had to worry about was how to keep Izzy and Jace away from trouble or how to get the glitter out of literally every surface in the house.
But the world as he had known had changed completely. Sebastian Morgenstern turned it into his playground. Demons roamed freely, mundane numbers were dwindling and Shadowhunters were either Turned or killed or barely managed to escape. There was personal loss too - his mother was missing, his sister was dead and his parabatai was worse than dead.
His sister had died killing Sebastian and his parabatai’s very soul had been corrupted by him.
And then there was Magnus, on his knees in front of him, begging to be killed. 
“You have to do this Alexander,” Magnus pleaded. “There is no other way”.
“There has to be another way. Tessa and Ragnor are still searching, they could find something that….they could find something”.
“Even if they do, it will be too late,” Magnus said. “I don’t have any more time left”.
It was true. The blight had started affecting warlocks all over the world. One by one they were all falling ill and no cure had worked. Magnus, being an Eldest curse, was affected the most.
Alec kneeled so he could be at eye level with him. Magnus was beyond exhausted. His bones were jutting out and his usually beautiful face was pale and sunken.
Magnus clasped Alec’s hand. “Alec, my brave archer boy, I know I am asking a lot from you but I can’t see myself turning into a monster,” he said, tears welling up in his eyes. “For centuries I have kept my humanity intact, trying my best to not let my father’s blood taint the good in me, trying to not give in to evil”. He shut his eyes as if in pain and whispered “I can’t fail now”.
A teardrop rolled and fell on Alec’s hand. “Look at me Magnus,” he said and lifted Magnus’s chin. “Look at me and listen to me, you are kindness, strength, humanity, and patience all wrapped up in one person. All your life you have helped people and saved lives. Even if they didn't deserve any of it. You are not evil. You never will be”
“I wish it was true Alexander. I wish that was my reality right now. But when this illness takes over my body, everything you said about me will vanish. I won’t be part human anymore and I would rather die than lose my humanity”.
Alec knew that. Magnus’s humanity had made Magnus what he was today. It was what Alec had fallen in love with first. So how could he see it leave his body? How could he deny him his last wish?
“Is this what you really want?” Alec asked in a small voice.
“Yes I do,” Magnus said. “You know why it has to be you right?”
“I know,” Alec replied. “I just wish we had more time”
“I wish that too. Maybe it's possible in another universe”.
“Maybe in another universe, we have a different life, a happier one”.
“Like the one we talked about a few months ago?”
“Yeah, like that one,” Alec replied softly.
Magnus closed his eyes and touched his forehead to Alec’s. He pulled away after a few minutes and whispered “You have to do it now before anyone else comes”.
Alec nodded and slowly retrieved a knife from inside his jacket. With his other hand, he gently touched Magnus’s face. “Just so you know, in another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you”.
Magnus smiled and kissed him with all the passion and love he could muster. Tears flowed down his face, mingling with their kisses. He gasped as the knife went in but didn’t move away. 
They stayed like that in each other's arms until Magnus’s breaths became shallow. Alec pulled away and gently lowered him to the ground. Blood seeped from the wound and darkened the soil around him. Magnus opened his mouth to say something but he started sputtering and reddish-black blood spilled out. Alec made a move to shush him but Magnus stopped him. “Alexander Lightwood…. it has been an honor being loved by you,” he said finally and went still.
Alec closed his eyes in pain and let the tears fall. He wanted to do more than that. He wanted to scream, shout, break something, bring Magnus back but nothing would work. He had lost everything and everyone he once held dear. The only thing he was left with now was grief and pain.
Once upon a time, Alec had dreamed of changing the world so the people he cared about could live and love freely. But what was the point now if they were all gone? What kind of world would he fight for? And for whom?
It was one of the quickest decisions Alec had made in his life. He curled his fingers around the hilt of the knife embedded in Magnus’s body and pulled it free. He thought of his family one last time, of Clary who died trying to save the world, of Tessa, Ragnor, and Catarina who were desperately searching for a cure. He thought of Magnus, the man who made him come alive with one look, who made him feel deserving of love.
A world without Magnus in it was not a world worth living in. With that thought in mind, Alec plunged the knife into his chest. It stung at first but it was okay. This pain was better compared to the pain of living. He laid down next to Magnus, clasped his hand, and closed his eyes. At least in death, they could be together.
The last thing he saw was a vision of two boys standing in front of a door. One was a toddler, barely 2 or 3 years old, with blue skin and tiny white horns jutting out of his head. The other one was slightly older with unruly curly hair and a solemn expression on his face. The boys looked like they were waiting for someone. He heard them call out, then the image faded and darkness took over as if signaling the end.

Due to the 1st of march - international cats day
Quick watercolour illustration for the new fairy tale (more like a myth actually), where Magnus happens to turn himself onto the cat occasionally.
Proserpine in the ninth house
- This shape suits you well, - Asmodeus said with slight glimpse of envy as Magnus jumped down and walked back and forth with his tail held high. - And it allows you to keep your eyes unaltered... ~ by Mikky.

"Grin", this week?
Hi! Sorry for the delay! My brain has not been cooperative these last few days. But! I did manage to write something for this; in fact I have just finished this ficlet, and since it's only a little over 300 words... you get the whole thing! Be warned - this is pure, tooth-rotting fluff. Your Smile: Like Sun, Like Peace Written for @malectober day 13: Grin (heyyy, almost on time!) Can also be read on Ao3.
It’s not often Magnus has gotten to see Alec like this. He’s… so happy. Not that he usually isn’t – Magnus takes great honor and satisfaction in making his dear Alexander smile as often as possible, but now that all the World Ending Crises seem to have been dealt with for the time being, that mission has gotten much easier.
Magnus won’t say everything is perfect. He has lived too long to tempt fate like that, and they do have some issues to deal with still – there’s still bigoted Clave officials, there’s still distrust between Shadowhunters and Downworlders, there’s still demons, there’s still nightmares. But those are things they can deal with, at their own pace. Those are things that allow them time to just relax together, the two of them, or with their family all together like today – both their families – for no reason other than they can and wanted to.
They’re at Taki’s, their favored restaurant for gatherings like this, with several tables pushed together to fit them all, Shadowhunters and Downworlders all mixed in together, no real way to tell where one family stops and another starts. Magnus didn’t hear what Alec said to his siblings, preoccupied by his own conversation, but his attention was drawn by Jace’s sputtering and the loud peals of laughter from near everyone else.
Maybe Alec feels Magnus’ gaze on him, or maybe he just wants to share the happiness with him, but in either case, Magnus’ darling husband turns to look at him, and Magnus falls impossibly more in love with him at the grin lighting up his whole being.
“What?” Alec asks him, grin still firmly in place, arm slung casually over the back of Magnus’ chair.
Magnus shakes his head a little and smiles back. “I love you,” is all he can say, but truly, that’s all he needs.
“I love you too,” Alec says, and leans in to kiss him, placing that lovely grin right against Magnus’ own, ignoring the chorus of cheers around them.

A Prince Restored, A Lover Lost
Title: A Prince Restored, A Lover Lost
Artists: @capcavan and @another-random-stranger
Beta: quill_and-ink (AO3)
Rating: Teen and Up
Pairings: Magnus Bane/Alec Lightwood
Word Count: 24k+
Summary: A SH 2x12 canon-divergent story where Magnus isn’t rescued by Alec and is executed in Valentine’s body by the Clave. His last moments of life are that of absolute agony…
…until the moment he wakes up in Edom and in the company of Asmodeus. 
Given a second chance at immortal life, Magnus returns to New York only to discover that, despite the seemingly fleeting moments he’d spent in death, decades have passed in the mortal realm. 
In a desperate attempt to reconnect with the Downworld/Shadowhunter family he was just beginning to build, Magnus finds everything and everyone changed. And the one he misses the most…he can’t find at all.
Devastated and unmoored, Magnus returns to his loft. And while the place is mostly the same (aside from inches of dust and stale air), it's the pile of mail at the door that stops him short. Because among the credit card applications, coupon sheets, and charity solicitations, are letters. Letters upon letters and each is labeled to mark the passing of time - Day 3, Day 64, Day 378, Day 1104 - all written in a heartbreakingly familiar hand. 
Through Alec’s words, the events after Magnus’ passing begin to unfold. And with each painful letter, a hopeful path back to the man who had the makings to be Magnus’ greatest love begins to be revealed.

My "rom-com" AU Malec fics
😬😉😬😉😬😉😬😉😬😉
One tenant too many
StrangersToLovers, Forced Cohabitation
Alec has just moved into the house that once belonged to his grandmother. He is ready to start his new life, but when he wakes up after spending the first night in his new home something unexpected shows up at his door. Someone, actually. Someone who, apparently, has no intention of leaving anytime soon.
Rating E - WC 35k
Hit&Love
Boss/Employee, Misunderstanding, Fluff&Smut
Alec is about to have an interview, hoping to be hired for his first job after finishing his studies. As he crosses the street, he is hit by a car. Sitting on the ground, with a bleeding cut on his forehead, he doesn't know it yet, but his life is about to change. For the best, of course.
Rating E - WC 25k
The groom fallen from Heaven
StrangersToHusbands
Alec has not yet told him his first name, and he already imagines them holding hands, romantically strolling in the park at sunset. And he can even picture matching rings on their left ring fingers.
Rating M - WC 40k
Sexy&Smooth
Fluff&Humor, Meet Cute
Alec is single and Isabelle just wants to help him. So, she invites her new coworker to her party, a dancing night at Pandemonium. Still, Alec should learn to let himself go on the dance floor... He is truly hopeless, isn't he? Who might help him move with more confidence and dance in a sexy and smooth way? But a hot and gorgeous dance teacher, of course!
Rating T - WC 15k
Double Fake Date
Fake relationship, StrangersToLovers
Magnus had been the victim of infamous rumors, Alec of unwanted and too insistent advances. They are still hurting and trying to move on. They are meant to meet soon for the first time. Magnus is afraid Alec won't trust him, Alec fears that the gossip about Magnus are true. They both need a shield, someone to protect them. So they have the same brilliant idea, pretending to be in a committed relationship with another person.

WIP Ask Game
Tagged by @nocoastposts!!! Thank you dear <3
Haven't gotten around to actually writing that much these two weeks because of school and also me working on my little rwrb animatic project instead, but here's some of what I have at the moment!
Ask me anything about my WIPs!
Works Started:
The Word of Your Body (RWRB):
Song fic of the movie Paris scene using "The Word of Your Body" from Spring Awakening, Chapter 1 in Alex's pov completed and uploaded, Chapter 2 in Henry's pov with the Reprise of the song (that supposedly Nick sang when he was in the production at 19) currently planning
Enchanted to Meet You (RWRB):
Reverse Cinderella AU: Alex is the son of the town Mayor and is holding the town's harvest festival, Henry is the repressed prince of the kingdom who snuck away for a break, but then stumbles across Alex. Loosely based on 2015 Cinderella. Chapter 1 uploaded, currently planning (*cough struggling *cough) with Chapter 2
I know better (but you're still around) (RWRB):
One-shot song fic based on Taylor Swift's "Marjorie", exploration of the Hanover-Stuart Foxs (Movie verse) finally learns to deal with their grief and reconcile. Just started writing
Take Me Out and Take Me Home (Malec)
5+1 Fic: 5 times Alec called Magnus his boyfriend and the 1 time Alec called him something more. 4 chapters done, 2 left, and currently sort of in writer's block for this fic
Ideas:
I'll See You In My Dreams (RWRB)
Where the only way the insomniac Prince Henry can fall asleep is to the ASMR videos of a certain ACD, who's later invited to a discussion/panel for one of Henry's mental health-related programmes (or some other social issue? I'll have to think about it)
Book Tok Fic (haven't thought of a name yet) (RWRB)
Inspired by some tik tok reuploaded to Instagram reel I saw ages ago: Henry is an author who's struggling to write the physical part of romantic scenes in his novel and Alex, his roommate who he has a massive crush on offers to help by demonstrating it with him. Kiss kiss fall in love :)
The Little Prince (RWRB)
Movie Verse Expanded: Taking the campfire scene monologue and telling the story each part shows, ex: "His grandfather, the King, sent the prince a suit of armor and told him that if he always wore it, nothing would ever happen to him." = the King's talk with Henry on his 18th birthday
I know you (I walked with you once upon a dream) (RWRB)
Sleeping Beauty + Soulmates AU with Henry as Aurora and Alex as Prince Philip, the dreams actually being a soulmate connection (the mechanics of the soulmate aspect inspired by one of my favourite Malec fics)
 The Dreams That You Dream (RWRB)
Henry's POV of the Buckingham protest, one on book and one on movie
Song Fics/ Character Studies (RWRB)
At All Cost from Wish and You Matter to Me from Waitress
Identical (Qi Ye/ Tian Ya Ke)
I don't think any one of my tumblr followers would know this one but Qi Ye and Tian Ya Ke is a duology of Chinese BL ancient drama novels, with the latter adapted into the TV Show Word of Honor. There are two characters in the book that although only met once, have a very similar trajectory when it comes to their relationships and unrequited love, only one already moved on and found someone better while the other hasn't. Had this idea to expand upon their connection because in the novel, the one it's implied that the one that moved on immediately recognized their shared experience. But I never got around to writing it, it has been lying in my drafts for a year now 😭
Tagging @typicalopposite @luainthewild @england-would-fall @pippin-katz and anyone who wants to join in!

Snippy snippy 👀
______________
"It had started approximately two days after the wedding, while they were toes in the sand in Bali.
Alec hadn't really noticed it the first time. The whole honeymoon experience with Magnus was already overwhelming and his mind and body were flooded with so many emotions it just flew under the radar.
Half of the week had passed when he started to realize that something was odd."
______________
Well I don't have a title for now because I suck at finding them, and I still have to open an account on Ao3 so see you there ✨

I'm stuck home with a cold, binge watched Young Royals to overcome my addiction with RWRB (fantastic idea to overrule one hyperfixation with another, really), and to top it off, made the absent minded decision to read TLND from the start again.
Down the rabbit hole again, I guess.
