Hi! You said you wanted shadowhunter prompts so I have two for you to pick from. You obviously don’t have to write either but if they tickle your fancy:

Magnus apologizing to Alec either post 2x20 or post 3x06/7. We never see Magnus doing the reaching or fixing(the relationship) in the show beyond the early parts of season 1 so I always enjoy him owning up and apologizing.

Or:

Jace (getting his head out of his ass) and making a deal with Asmodeus to repay Magnus. Yes Magnus did it out of love for Alec, but Jace did benefit so I’d like to see it spun as Jace doing the sacrificing. Dealers choice on what and how.

If you don’t like these then it’s no bother! :) happy new year!

sorry this took so long! it.... kind of went out of control and is a long boy, so i'm putting it under the cut. TWS: drinking to cope.

In the hundreds of years he had been alive, Magnus Bane had never been one for apologies. He did what his heart told him to, and despite that heart sometimes beating in the wrong direction, he always followed it in the moment.

So when he texted Alec that he wasn’t coming to dinner, he wasn’t upset with himself. No, the regret didn’t set in until hours later, when he was on his balcony with his second drink nearly finished. 

And when it did hit? It hit like a tidal wave, knocking Magnus back into his senses and bringing a stinging wetness to his barely glamoured eyes. 

He had upset his Alexander. Again. And again, it was his fault. And again, he was letting the first man he had loved in decades take the fall for it. 

Alec was always the one to come begging for forgiveness. He was always the one that showed up at Magnus’s door, determined to set things right. It was never Magnus. 

The warlock could blame his inability to break the tension first on many things. He could blame it on the fact that everyone he loved left him eventually. He could blame it on his years of chasing after Camille, of apologizing for things he didn’t need to. He could blame it on pure stubbornness, a trait he wasn’t lacking in, or perhaps the tragedy that laced his earliest memories. But in the end, there was no one to put the blame on but himself. 

He pulled out his phone, fingers hovering over Alec’s contact. Would the shadowhunter even want to see him? This wasn’t the first time they had argued, but something in Magnus knew that this felt… different. The argument about the whole immortality thing that morning had struck deep, in both men’s hearts. In Magnus’s about the fact that he didn’t want to see another person he loved age and die, and in Alec’s for the idea that he wasn’t good enough for his long lasting lover. 

It was a hard line to toe, immortality. And they had pushed it one too many times. 

Before he could stop himself, Magnus was hitting the call button, pressing his lips together as the phone rang. It let out three steady rings, and then it beeped.

Hello, you have reached the voicemail of Alec Lightwood, please-

Magnus hung up. He groaned, balling his fists at his sides. “Fuck,” he muttered, scrambling to pull up a different contact. “Come on, Isabelle, pick up.”

“Hello?” said a girl on the other end of the line, her voice soothing Magnus’s stress by just a little bit. “Magnus, this better be good.”

He frowned. “You’re mad at me.”

“Not mad,” Izzy said, sighing into the line. “Disappointed. You need to fix this.” She waited for his response. It never came. “Come on, Magnus Bane. Use your damn years of knowledge and figure something out!” And then she hung up, leaving Magnus clutching at his phone, frozen.

With shaky hands, Magnus tucked his device into his pocket and turned on his heel, glancing at Chairman Meow on the sofa. “What do I do?” he asked. 

The Chairman hissed at him. The sound was enough to spring Magnus from his guilt and into action, forming a portal directly into the Institute. 

When he arrived, he was greeted by the blaring of the wards, which he quickly stopped with the snap of his fingers. Shadowhunters surged toward him, but he pushed past, heading straight for Alec’s room.

“Alexander!” he called, knocking on the door. “Alec, I need to speak to you!” 

There was shuffling on the other side of the door. The handle turned, and Alec peeked his head through the small opening he had made. “I’m not in the mood,” he slurred. The stench of alcohol drifted off his tongue. “Go away, Magnus.”

Magnus caught the door with his foot, stopping Alec from shutting it. “Alexander, please,” he begged, nothing but pure desperation in his words. “I messed up.”

“You think?” Alec laughed, running a hand through his messy hair. “We both said some things. We always say some things, and then I come running back to you like a lost fucking puppy who needs his owner.” Pausing, he looked Magnus right in the eyes. “And yet I can’t help it, because I’m so damn in love with you that I think my life without you would be nothing at this point. So I need you to leave before I get on my knees and beg for forgiveness again.”

“Alec,” Magnus whispered, breath caught in his throat. “Alec, please.”

A laugh fell from Alec, drunken and pitiful.”Please what? What do you want from me, Magnus?” His words were bitter, but something in them seemed to be pleading with Magnus to fix this. To mend what had been broken, and not with magic.

Taking a breath, Magnus let his guard fall completely. His eyes glazed over from tears, their dark hue fading into a glowing yellow. He let his apology tumble from his lips before he could stop himself. “Alexander Gideon Lightwood. I messed up. You’re right, we both said things we shouldn’t have. But not coming to dinner was petty on my part, and I wholeheartedly apologize.” He was fully crying now, but he kept his contact with Alec. The other man was staring back at him with a blank face. “I understand if you don’t forgive me. I wouldn’t either,” he laughed dryly, “but all I ask is that you don’t let it fester like you always do. I don’t want you to hurt. That’s the last thing I want. I would do anything to make things right between us, Alec. I’m sorry.” Silence fell over them for a few moments before Magnus sighed, breaking eye contact and lowering his head in defeat. “I’ll go now,” he said sadly. “Goodbye, Alexander.”

He turned to walk away. As he did, Alec shuffled behind him. “Hey, Magnus?”

“Yeah?” Magnus’s voice quivered. 

“Turn around, please,” he asked, and Magnus did as he was told. He looked at Alec through teary cat-eyes. Alec smiled, ever so slightly. The corner of his eyes scrunched up in a way that made Magnus fill with the little hope he had left. “Do you want to come in and talk?”

Magnus exhaled. “I’d love to,” he replied. 

Alec took his hand and led him into the room, closing the door behind them. Magnus looked around. He had been in Alec’s Institute bedroom before, but only in passing. This was different. This was vulnerable. 

There was a half-empty bottle of alcohol on Alec’s bedside table, and Magnus desperately hoped Alec hadn’t been the one to drain it to that point. He hovered awkwardly by the door as Alec collapsed onto the bed, looking up at him through his eyelashes. 

“Come sit,” he said, nearly pleading. “I need you close.”

Smiling softly, Magnus did as he was told. He dropped gently onto the mattress, a few feet away from where Alec was sprawled out. “I thought you were mad at me.”

Alec pulled himself up and took Magnus’s hand. “I was,” he began, “but you're good at apologies.” He sounded tired, words slurring together. Magnus ran his free hand through the shadowhunters hair, pushing it out of his eyes. 

“Am I?”

A giggle left Alec’s lips. “You are,” he confirmed. “But only when you decide to stop being stubborn.” He squeezed Magnus’s hand, the light pressure incredibly grounding. “I need to sleep off this hangover I’m about to get.”

“Of course,” said Magnus. “We can talk more tomorrow?”

“Yeah.” Alec watched as Magnus stood, a pout crossing his lips. “Where are you going?”

Magnus shrugged. “Home,” he answered. “I assumed you didn’t want me to stay here with you.”

The pout turned into a raised eyebrow and pursed lips. “Stop assuming,” Alec said, “and come lay down.”

“Are you sure?” Magnus asked, chest heavy. Why would Alec want to lay with him when he had hurt him so badly? Was he doing it out of pity?

Alec coughed. “I can hear you thinking,” he murmured, patting the bed next to him. “Relationships take effort, right? And you put in that effort to get all the way here and apologize. So come here before I change my mind.”

Surging forward, Magnus slid under the covers next to Alec. His Alec. “You are a wise drunk, darling,” he said, and Alec turned to face him.

“I think you're rubbing off on me,” he joked with a yawn. “Night, Magnus.”

“Goodnight, Alexander,” Magnus responded. “I love you.”

Alec didn’t say it back, he was already asleep. But the smile on his lips was enough for Magnus to drift off as well.

when the fandom was worried Underhill would try to flirt with Alec in 3x06 but we ended up with him calling Magnus Alec's "better half" and calling a cab for him after Alec got drunk and talked about Magnus the entire night

Picture it. 3x06. 

Alec and Magnus have the fight over breakfast. 

Clary and Magnus work together to track the demon that attacked her. When they learn--maybe over the phone? As seen in the pictures?--that Jace is going to attack Alec. 

Magnus panics because the last thing he and Alec said to each other was in a fight. 

Alec fights Jace. Alec is injured, while Jace either escapes or is captured by Alec. 

Alec and Magnus have an emotional reunion, with apologies and heartfelt claims. 

We all cry. 

Cue Edom in the following episodes.

We all die.

Three times someone catches a glimpse of Magnus’ and Alecs happiness

NOTE: This one took me a long time.... I hope you enjoy it :-)

The first time it was Catarina. She was visiting Magnus on an evening, trying to catch up after not seeing each other for a while. She couldn’t help but notice how relaxed Magnus was. His smile was so prominent these days, something that wasn’t always usual for him. She had known Magnus for such a long time. And being more than 400 years old brought a lot of ups and downs with it. A knock on the door brought them both out of their moment of reminiscing and Magnus excused himself while he went to go and get it. Cat couldn’t help herself to not catch a glimpse of Magnus welcoming Alec into his apartment. It felt like betraying their privacy, but it somehow made her so at ease to see how utterly happy they were to see each other. She couldn’t understand the things they were saying, but the way Alec kissed Magnus afterwards and Magnus pulling him a bit closer by his shirt, felt like such a sincere and happy moment, she couldn’t help but smile with them. ‘Oh, hey Cat.’ Alec greeted her, after walking himself into the living room followed by a content Magnus. ‘I’m going to cook tonight. Care to join for dinner? I make the best beef stew.’ He was already unpacking the stuff he bought at the store. ‘It’s at your own risk.’ Magnus winked at her before sitting himself down again, immediately followed by a voice coming from the kitchen. ‘I heard that!’ And while Magnus replied with ‘I’m always here to help, love!’, Catarina was more than honoured to spend this evening with these two men.

The second time it was Jace. He was having a meeting with Alec in his office. Alec seemingly was not in a good mood. Earlier that day there were some problems in the institute with some shadowhunters who still were not too fond of Alec being the new head. There were also some complications during a couple of missions, leaving Alec in a very stressed and frustrated mood. ‘I won’t be able to go on that mission with you and Izzy.’ He sighs, brows furrowed. ‘I just can’t keep up with the work like this if people keep fucking things up.’ It was sad to hear how he had to cancel the one thing he loved most, but Jace knew he couldn’t be any help for Alec when it came to being the head of the institute. And then, suddenly, a knock on the door makes Alec look up and when Magnus walks in it’s like the whole mood of the room changes. ‘Jace.’ Magnus greets him with a smiley nod, moving his gaze to the man who’s eyes seem to spark whenever the warlock enters a room. ‘Alexander.’ And while he pronounces his name, Alec stands up to answer his greeting with a soft, sweet and gentle peck on Magnus’ lips. ‘Forgive me if I overheard your conversation just now.’ Magnus quickly announces, when he sits himself down in another armchair, not losing the connection with Alecs eyes. ‘You go on that mission, Alec. Tell me whatever I can do.’ He adds, making Alec softly shake his head at his words. ‘Magnus, no… You don’t have to-’. But before Alec can finish, Magnus already interrupts again. ‘We both know you trust me with this work. I helped you before. So you tell me what to do and you go on that mission, because if you replace yourself by someone else god knows it’s another case you need to fix later. It’s not up for discussion.’ And with his last words, Magnus got himself a deal. And somehow it warmed Jaces heart to know they had each other’s back like this. ‘I owe you a big one.’ Alec kisses Magnus fully on his lips now, ignoring the fact that Jace is still in the room. Magnus smirks before he gives his own condition. ‘You owe me to come back in one piece, Alexander.’ And it’s in that moment, just before Alec and Jace take off, Magnus gaze slightly shifts at Jace, just to let him know how important that condition is to him.

The third time it was Izzy. ‘You really love him, don’t you?’ She asked Magnus in the kitchen during a family dinner. The question had been aching to get out, although it wasn’t really a question anymore. She knew it. She knew Magnus was just as in love with her brother as Alec was with him. ‘That’s not a question, love.’ Magnus smiles while tasting a bit of Alec’s beef stew, followed by a surprised look that it was actually kind of okay this time. ‘It’s a statement. I don’t even need to answer it anymore because you know I do.’ Izzy leaned herself against the kitchen counter, keeping the door in her vision, making sure Alec was not about to enter. ‘It’s just… Alec has such a fragile heart, Magnus. He looks all tough and stuff, but the last time the two of you broke up, he was just not okay. I don’t think I can handle him heartbroken again.’ Her words made Magnus’ smile disappear from his expression. ‘I’m not planning on letting him go, Izzy. He’s more important to me than any other person in this w-’. ‘MAGNUS, you were not allowed in the kitchen!’ Alec frantically enters the room, leaving Magnus’ unspoken words in the air. But Izzy knew what he meant and she confirmed it by a short nod towards the warlock. ‘Izzy, please tell me he did not touch the stew.’ Alec immediately moved himself towards the stove and took the spoon from Magnus to taste his own cooking. ‘Love, you outdid yourself. I couldn’t have made it any better.’ Magnus arms wrapped around Alecs waist when he gave him a peck on his cheek. ‘I can confirm.’ Izzy added, smiling at the two in front of her. The way Alec side eyed at Magnus before he turned himself in Magnus’ arms, made Izzy silently leaving the both of them in their moment. ‘I love you.’ She heard Alec whisper. And when she turned around one last time, she caught Magnus’ wink, leaving her heart at ease. These two were happy. And that’s everything she wanted to know.

SIMON: So where is Raphael? HEIDI: Who cares? SIMON: Well, he did bring you back from the dead. HEIDI: Yeah, to see if I’d be a Daylighter like you. SIMON: What? HEIDI: He locked me in a laundry room and then drugged me, and then burnt me with a light over and over to see if I had your powers. Newsflash: I didn’t. But what kept me going was the thought of you, my sire. You know, when we were at the bleeder den and you fed on me, you were so different. The way that you hesitated, I could tell that… you didn’t wanna hurt me. No one does that. No one cares. No mundane, no vampire, no… Well, not even my own family.
