Yes, this one, this one fits, after all the stumbling around and searching, and here it is.

Magnus started to laugh. It was odd to laugh and feel desire at the same time; he wasn’t sure he’d had that with anyone but Alec.

For you, Alec, it's always yes.

He wasn’t ready for death, but if it came today, he would face it with his head held high and Alexander Lightwood’s name on his lips.

“Magnus!” Shinyun’s voice was hoarse and cracked. “I demand that you take the third blow from the Svefnthorn. I demand it. Or I will kill the thing you love best.”

“Will you spare Alec?” he said quietly. “Promise you’ll let Alec go, and I’ll do it.”

My love for yours, my heart for yours, my soul for yours, Alexander. Now and for all time.

day 1 of malectober

Day one of #malectober !! Starting the challenge with the first day “Dollar”. Really simple drawing + the dollar is a template i found on pinterest, i did not draw it ‼️ But I had this idea because I thought that since Alec is the new Consul, he deserves to be on the money😌 Hope you enjoy, I can’t wait to post day 31😩

Malectober 2025 is here!!

In case you don’t know what we do, here’s an introduction post.

Sooo here’s how this year works -

We’ve got 4 weeks in October, with each week having its own theme, which is hopefully pretty apparent from the title itself. The first 6 prompts of each week are single words, and the last one is a dialogue prompt.

And at the end, for the last three days of October, you can do as you wish or leave them out entirely, or follow the prompts I’ve given. Plus a few extras to switch out on the ones you’re stuck.

Of course, I only did the prompts this way for funsies. You can choose to ignore the weekly themes entirely, mix and match prompts of different weeks, etc etc. The world is your oyster. There’s no right way to do Malectober.

Now, let me add some guidelines -

If you’re posting on Tumblr, make sure to tag this account AND add #malectober within the first five tags. This will make it easier for me to find and reblog your work!

Anything goes, be it fic, fanart, moodboards, playlists, edits, or even a mix of all of these.

For those posting on Ao3, please add them to the given Ao3 collection

No AI works will be allowed.

Tag appropriately, both on Tumblr and Ao3. If your fic is nsfw, make sure to put it under a “readmore”

You can continue posting even after October if you want to.

For those not participating, make sure to show the creators lots of love!!

And to those who are participating, don’t stress yourself out over this, just do as much as you can. Most importantly, HAVE FUN!!

Happy Malectober!!

Malectober Day 4: Ankle

I am yet again late posting this, but it is complete! Another entry for @malectober!

"Should I get an ankle tattoo?" Alec whirled around to face Magnus, who was standing across the flat in the kitchen.

"What?" Alec responded, the book he had been reading discarded on the couch.

"I'm thinking about getting an ankle tatto," Magnus repeated, pouring himself a cup of coffee.

"Magnus, you just woke up," Alec replied. "Maybe you should think on that a minute. What would you even get a tattoo of?"

"Your name, of course," Magnus responded without looking up from stirring in his creamer. "You know, like mundanes commonly do."

Alec gave Magnus a confused look as he picked up his book. "Don't they usually do that on their arms?"

Magnus shrugged and looked at Alec as he raised his coffee cup. "I'd be open to suggestions,"

"Let's back up a minute," Alec said. "Maybe think about getting a tattoo longer than five minutes. It's there forever, and Magnus forever is a long time for you. We've only been dating a few months, you could end up regretting it."

Alec's voice got a little shaky at the last part of the his little speech. This caused Magnus to launch himself across the room next to him. "I will not regret anything, Alexander."

Alec let out a shaky breath. "Well..."

Magnus waited anxiously for Alec to continue his sentence. The last way he wanted their weekend to start was with Alec becoming stuck in a spiral of self doubt.

"How about on our first anniversary, if you're still wanting a tattoo, we go get tattoos."

Magnus was caught off guard. "We?"

"Yeah," Alec replied, slightly fidgeting. "If you still want a tattoo of my name, on our first anniversary, I will get a matching one of yours."

"Deal," Magnus said immediately. There had been part of Alec in that moment that thought they'd both forget about this conversation on their first anniversary, if they had one he had thought. Magnus, however, was positive they'd have one and marked the date so he wouldn't forget.

That's how, on the morning of their first anniversary, Alec found himself getting a tattoo of Magnus' name on his ankle. At the end of the day, they had matching tattoos of each others names on their ankles, so that they'd always be together wherever they went.

 “Way to ruin a morning,” he mutters as he settles against the headboard in a sitting position and grabs his phone, mentally cursing the universe. Magnus just lays his head in Alec’s lap, his face relaxing a bit as Alec caresses his smooth hair.

Weakened dread fills him when he comes to know who sent him so many messages at this god-forbidden hour. It happens to be Ragnor, with whom his children are spending the rest of the day. Max and Rafe are on a little vacation with Auntie Catarina and Uncle Ragnor, although Ragnor didn’t like to be called an uncle in the beginning, but Magnus persisted, enjoying the vexing of his dear friend up until it turned into fondness for Ragnor.

His overthinking is put to a stop as quickly as it came into being when he takes in the messages, nothing suggesting an emergency, but definitely something interesting and more so funny.

“Who is it?” Magnus asks, his tone hinting that he is wary of the sender.

“It’s Ragnor,” he replies, going through his phone and trying to hide his amusement.

“Did something happen to the boys?” Same as him, Magnus turns into a tense bean.

“No, nothing, they’re fine, he just sent me something,” he says, stopping at a picture on his phone.

My very late contribution for Malectober, and it is a silly malec-in-love fic. Thanks to @enchanthings for the amazing dividers.

Magnus’s sheets felt nice against his skin.

That was the first thought in Alec’s mind when he woke. It surprised him, because it had never occurred to him that some kinds of bedsheets could be nicer than others. All his life, he’d slept on the Institute’s standard-issue sheets, plain white cotton, utterly utilitarian. And that was— fine. They were practical, and Alec had always been raised to value practicality. There was nothing wrong with being practical.

Magnus’s sheets were silk.

I Never Want a Less Strange Love✨🏹🩷

Malectober - Early Days @malectober

“You’re so romantic, Warlock” Alec teased as he looped his arms around Magnus’ neck and pulled him in for a kiss. He was aiming for a chaste, sweet kiss, but when Magnus tugged him closer around his waist, it turned heated with a passion that Alec burned with whenever he was with Magnus.

Hello!!

Soooo I've been thinking of my glorious days of writing back in 2020

And like. Yeah I write now too but nothing like what I did then right. Like I literally wrote nearly 250k words in 2020 alone according to my ao3 stats, and that's 5 times what I wrote last year.

So I was thinking back on those days as one does, and I think one of the things that helped me write as much as I did (apart from the endless free time) was this server I was in, where I'd share all the ideas I got and even received some from the other people there, and it was this very nice cesspool of creativity.

Anyways this is probably going to end in yet another dead server in my discord but atleast I can say I tried- I made a discord server for Malec writers!!

It's 2:00 am here and I'm immediately going to sleep after this, so don't mind if you join in and it's all crickets. If you do join, see you in like 8 hours <3
