When the horny lines up with the plans to write PWP and you finally don't get distracted by plot or feels or angst ;~;

(does it count as "PWP" if it is one chapter out of 20 in a plot, angst and feels heavy 60k+ fic??)

SNEAK PEEK SUNDAY

Stealing this from @blairwaldcrf on account of every writing tag game they tagged me on in the past weeks that I couldn't do due to a severe lack of Actually Writing Shit! BUT I am actively working on a new story and am excited about it so have a sneak peek into my upcoming ABOverse Jimonael post canon multi-chapter fic! <3

(Also tagging @airasilver because this fic was born from your comment about Sugar Daddies Saphael and I've had a screenshot of the comment on my desktop since August so I won't forget to write it once I find time and motivation again!)

--

Jace didn’t think it was a secret he’d had a crush on Simon – he had been very vocal about that, after all he’d called Simon pretty to his face when they were in the Seelie Realm, but then everything at the court had happened and things between him and Simon became much more awkward, what with Jace being the reason Simon and his girlfriend broke up. Even though, painfully ironically, the one Jace would have wanted to kiss at that court had been Simon, not Clary, who he had come to look at as a sister in the time they’d believed themselves to be siblings.

Jace had developed a crush on Simon very early on; the nerd was hot and his rambling was cute. But inexplicably, Simon seemed to be falling from one relationship into the next – from his mundie bandmate, to Clary, to a very brief attempt at dating Maia, before getting together with Raphael. Every time Jace thought he’d have an opening to at least hook up with Simon, the vampire was already involved with someone else. And Simon never approached Jace himself either, despite Jace’s blatant flirting, so… Simon had made it clear he wasn’t interested.

And that was fine. Jace knew he was a lot to handle and not for everyone. However, what Jace wanted was some time and distance so he could get over his stupid crush on Simon. And being the personal liaison of the vampire clan led by Simon and Simon’s mate? That was the absolute opposite of what he wanted or needed right now.

WIP WEDNESDAY

Tagged by @blairwaldcrf! Thank you, dear! And I'm tagging anyone who wants to do this! <3

Shadowhunters, Raphael/Simon/Jace: Light of Their (After)Life, chapter 9

“This is really not necessary,” Jace frowned. “I have clothes.”

“You do,” Raphael nodded in agreement and took a sip from his wine. “And as good as you look in torn, washed out jeans and too tight shirts, you deserve to wear something as stunning as you are.”

Jace heaved a sigh as Marco nudged him to spread his arms. Another fitting. Not for just one suit, though. Pants, shirts, multiple suits. A whole wardrobe, really. Raphael had insisted on taking him shopping, the day after the alphas’ declaration of their intends. They wanted to court him. Jace still didn’t know what to do with that. Dating was one thing, but courting had the intend of a mate-bond.

Something he could only compare to the parabatai-bond – tying your soul to someone, a bond that could not easily be broken, and even more importantly in this case, a bond that would make them share their immortality with Jace. Beyond the bite, the only way to become immortal was a mate-bond with an immortal. Jace knew that, very well, because he’d been doing research into it ever since Magnus and Alec had sealed their mate-bond. There was no way Jace was going to leave Alec behind for eternity with a broken parabatai-bond. But Jace wasn’t entirely sure if Raphael and Simon were aware that the mate-bond would mean they’d be stuck with him for eternity.

“Piece of advise: Just let him have this,” Simon grinned softly at Jace. “I meant it, Raph really does like to spoil those he cares about. So, give up and let him spoil you.”

2. Shadowhunters, Malace: Lust and Love, oneshot

(Jalec Bingo prompt fill for "seven deadly sins", leaning into the fact that Magnus is the son of Asmodeus, demon of lust, and giving him some incubus-like powers)

It was a normal night, Magnus sat in his VIP lounge, with his adoring followers. Few friends, most simply people who hoped they would be lucky enough to be taken home by the High Warlock. Magnus had always loved the attention, the adoration. It was a normal night, until a Shadowhunter caught his attention. The Shadowhunter was staring at him and with Shadowhunters, Magnus never knew where that would lead. Was it lust, or was it going to be trouble?

The question was quickly answered when, all of a sudden, the blonde man dropped onto his knees in front of Magnus. Mh. The warlock smiled bemused. It was very rare for him to have this strong an effect on someone. He was the son of Asmodeus, king of Edom and demon of lust. His children tended to have succubus and incubus qualities, to varying degrees. While Magnus himself didn’t solely rely on it, he could strengthen his magic by feeding on the energy created during sex.

He had a certain sexual aura that drew humans in. Not every person reacted the same way. Most people were simply charmed by him, others got overwhelmed with desire for him.

To have someone drop onto their knees for him so willing and ready and quickly though? Magnus’ eyes flashed golden, intrigued by the Shadowhunter’s strong reaction to him. He leaned forward and reached out with one hand, grasping the blonde’s chin to tilt his head up.

“Very flattering, little Shadowhunter,” Magnus purred pleased.

The Shadowhunter blinked dazed, as though he was only now really realizing that he had gone down onto his knees. His brows furrowed and his tongue darted out to wet his lips. Magnus’ eyes followed that motion curiously. Pretty, plush lips. The eyes though. Magnus had always had a weakness for blue eyes, but these were particularly special blue eyes. Heterochromia, blue eyes but one of them with a corner of golden-brown. Truly stunning.

3. PJO, Nico/Percy: Champion of Hades, chapter 4

Medusa smiled bemused to herself as she put down plates of pancakes. That she got to cook for someone else again already! And the two children were simply too precious. Siblings, the girl was fourteen, the boy twelve. A protective big sister and her little brother, who wanted to be bigger and stronger than he was just yet. The boy kept glancing at her, but not with fear. With something else. Something that Medusa didn’t quite know to pinpoint. He was adorable though, with the dark curls and dark eyes. Looked a lot like his father, even though the boy was probably not aware of it.

“Is there something I can do for you, Nico?” Medusa asked, when Nico stared again.

He blushed and ducked his head, fidgeting with something in his pocket. “Yes… Maybe? I don’t know. I was wondering if you… Would you sign my card?”

Pausing, Medusa regarded him curious. “I’m sorry?”

Nico got a deck of cards out of his pocket and then put one of them in front of Medusa. Some kind of playcard, with stats and attacks on it, and a truly stunning illustration… of her. She blinked.

“This is all like a lot. Like, a lot a lot,” Nico motioned. “The gods are real! The legends are real! I just… I always liked learning about them, and you’re the first real one I meet and I was wondering if you would maybe sign my card of you? Please?”

Bianca groaned in second-hand embarrassment. A small smile played on Medusa’s lips. This was too endearing. Where did this new breed of demigods come from? First her little Percy, now this precious boy. Taking a marker, Medusa signed her name on the card, making Nico smile brightly.

Me: *Plotting a Jimon fic.* My brain: Give Simon a boyfriend.

Me:

Jimonael, the answer to your problem is Jimonael, actually ^-^v

[takaraphoenix]

for rhe wip nudge game definitely raphael/simon/jace

Thanks for playing! ^-^

OKAY SO. The original thought was "hey I've never done Jimonael with Japhael as the starting ship", because usually it's Raph/Si and then I add Jace. But there would have been so many pre-series opportunities for Raph and Jace to meet and fall in love. So what if Raphael and Jace started dating pre-show and maybe had a little arrangement? Since Raph is a sex-repulsed ace but Jace very much enjoys sex and I have this headcanon that Raphael does enjoy watching, they have this arrangement with each other where they invite someone into their bedroom, but 1. They both have to agree on the person and 2. Raphael will be there to watch.

Enter Simon, cute and hot nerd who got Jace to grin like a maniac when Simon pinned him against a wall and threatened him with a knife (fucking masochist Shadowhunter). Raphael and Jace invite Simon into their bed and then they accidentally catch feelings.

Alas.

Alas this story ran away from me. Instead of opening up with the show plot, I thought it'd be nice to show Raph and Jace getting together. And then I wrote their relationship, the importance and impact of Raphael's asexuality and the way the two navigate their relationship. To the point that I thought it'd be better to split this story into two parts; how Raphael and Jace got together and the sequel, where they add Simon.

The Jimonael part I actually do not have any snippet for yet, because gotta write the first part before I can write the sequel. So have a snippet from the Japhael set-up. ;)

--

“I am... sexually frustrated, to the point of Alec getting annoyed with me because he can feel it through the bond,” admitted Jace after a moment. “I've been... masturbating a lot. A lot-a lot.”

A frown took over Raphael's face and he sighed softly. “So... while it wasn't a problem initially, my asexuality isa deal-breaker after all then? Now that we've tried this for a few weeks?”

“No!” Jace spoke quickly, maybe a bit louder than intended. “Your asexuality isn't a deal-breaker. I... I actually...” Jace blushed and turned to look away from Raphael. “I like it.”

“Mh. Interesting. Well, consider me confused now,” Raphael furrowed his brows. “What... does that mean? That you 'like' it? And how... does that relate to you being sexually frustrated then?”

Groaning softly, Jace ran his fingers through his hair and tilted his head back. “I like your asexuality because... you're not sexually attracted to me.”

Raphael sat quietly, waiting for Jace to find the right words to continue. “All my life, I've... always just been my body. For my father and the Clave, I had to be strong, the strongest possible. A good fighter. So I became the best Shadowhunter of my generation. And many of my... past conquests only wanted that too, wanted to be with the best Shadowhunter of our generation. And beyond that, I was a good lay. I've never had a romantic relationship before. I had people lust after me, I hooked up with them but it was never more than sex. They never wanted more than sex from me.”

oh oh oh! Simon/Raphael/Jace for the ask game?

Okay, listen, this ship was originally solely born out of Jimon and my love for OT3s. I just, my preferred method of shipping is in an OT3 and back then I wasn't much into the Jace/Maia angle and I can not make Simon work with like Alec or Magnus, these just don't fit for me.

And the fandom's surprisingly big on Raphael/Simon. I can kind of see where it comes from, Raphael is one of the characters Simon has the most interactions with and they have this enemies to lovers vibe and It's Complicated, which can always work nicely. I admit, I am still not really into just the two of them alone, I think they are a bit too much opposites, but I can very much make it work with Jace.

He works as the binding element there for me. Because he has the professional, serious side, the calculating aspect of having been in this grim world for a long time, that he shares with Raphael. He however also has too much energy and can be very dorky, just like Simon. Jace works perfectly as the... uniting middle-part of this ship? He has things in common with both of them personality-wise and, in a relationship, balances it all out.

Or at least that's the conclusion I came to after I first attempted to write them - and I got hooked on it. Because when it's all three of them, then it fits perfectly for me, and they quickly became my second favorite OT3 for this fandom.

I know many would tackle that from a different angle - I mean, as I mentioned, the Raph/Si is very popular in the fandom, so yeah. But for me, this is what makes this OT3 work.

Send me a ship and I will explain why I do or don't ship it

[takaraphoenix]

THE BEAUTIFUL STICKERS I BOUGHT ON @c0ffeebee​‘s SOCIETY6 STORE ARRIVED AND LOOK AT THEM. THEY'RE SO PRETTY! *^*

I got both my OT3s as stickers now and I love, love, love how Malace works out in a way that Magnus and Alec are looking at Jace if I place them like this! ^-^

ALSO MY HEADCANONS. Since about 90% of fics headcanon Jace as bi and Simon as pan, while I’m the odd one out doing it the other way around. PLUS ACE!JACE. I LIVE FOR ACE!JACE! ;///;

Plus Magnus riding a dragon, because c’mon, it’s Magnus and he is riding a dragon. Amazing.
