A finds a book of magic in their grandparents attic. A takes it to a Wiccan shop and hesitantly asks B, the shopkeeper, to take a look at it. B takes one look at it and in hushed tones asks, “Where did you get this?”

* 。✧ ⋅ ⋆ wait a minute, was that [HARRY SHUM JR] i just saw run around the city? aw no, i was wrong, that was just the [400+] year old [MAGNUS BANE] a [CANON CHARACTER] from [SHADOWHUNTERS] & [HE] identifies as [CIS MALE & BISEXUAL]. rumor has it that they are [BRAVE] but are also [ECCENTRIC] oh well, let us all hope they enjoy their stay in the city of love!
i read the first three mortal instruments books when i was like 15 and didnt care much for them but then last week my friend pressured me into watching shadowhunters and here i am
truth be told i’m still halfway through season 2 but i watched all magnus scenes from the next episodes and read a lot about what happens plus i’m on vacation so it’ll take me another week to finish everything anyway so magnus will be portrayed up to date with the show !!
he’s 100% show-based since i don’t like the books otl
as a warlock, magnus is intrigued by how the invitation worked as a portal & he doesn’t think it’s that weird since 1) he receives party invitations all the time and 2) his warlock friends could be just trying out new things. bUT he also suspects this has something to do some sort of Evil Magic
he’s been in paris for like 2 hours or so
i think i’ve covered up everything ?? so i’ll just explain magnus very briefly in 4 pieces of information to those who don’t know who he is
001. magnus is one of the most powerful warlocks there is. his magic level is extremely advanced, mostly due to how long he has been around. for a long while he received the title of high warlock of brooklyn and became a figure other warlocks, and downworlders in general, look up to & come for advice.
001a. magnus also has the habit of taking new downworlders ( those are vampires, werewolves, warlocks, seelies etc ) under his wing, as he had to figure the entire process of having to hide from mundanes plus deal with his powers & the clave on his own and doesn’t want anyone else going through what he did. hes an angel okay
002. sassy sassy sassy. his one-liners are to die for. he loves glitter, make-up, nail polish, throwing parties yadda yadda yadda. i feel bad for any poor soul who underestimates him because of that
003. even though he’s playful, sassy & confident, he’s been through a lot and tends to hide behind walls he’s built for his own protection. especially from mortals. he is also constantly worried people will leave him because he’s ‘ too much to swallow ‘, and past experiences have made him certain everyone he falls for will eventually leave, so he stayed away from love for a while until alec showed up
004. he may deny it & complain a lot, but magnus loves to help people. no one’s flawless though, so he also tends to overreact, lash out on people and be way too sarcastic for his own good. he’s a very eccentric person as well but he’s a great friend to anyone in need of one
sooo that’s all !! please hmu if you’d like to plot, i’m considering making a starter call or just posting a starter in the tag. i’ll probably decide today. i’m excited to interact with all of your muses <3
