Summary
Alec Lightwood is determined to get through his last year at Hogwarts in one piece. Despite nearly perfect grades and a spot on the Hufflepuff Quidditch team, he never felt like he measured up to his parents' expectations. To make matters worse, his abysmal performance in Potions is a steady source of humiliation. As if having his parents constantly breathing down his neck wasn't bad enough, an outrageously handsome Slytherin is messing with his head.

Summary
For the record, Magnus still can’t believe that stupid pickup line actually got him here.
Alec – the Beautiful Man that runs the cafe, who had miraculously flushed after Magnus had spat out the first thing that came to mind – sits there, in a black sweater and dark jeans, leaning against the tree. He’s smiling at Magnus, soft and sweet, and Magnus can feel the start of something new.
“So, Alec,” he begins, leaning forward on a hand, “tell me about yourself?”- Language:

Summary
For a long time, Alec had felt like his life was held together by strings tied on him by the Clave, his parents, his siblings. Strings that pulled and tugged him in every which direction, heedless of the bruises and blood left behind. As much as they hurt, some days they’d been the only thing to hold him together.
That is, up until the moment Alec stood on the shores of Lake Lyn and faced the death of the one person who held a piece of his soul, and the lies that followed his mysterious resurrection.
There, on the shores of Lake Lyn, those strings finally pulled too hard, and Alec broke.
With the permission of the Inquisitor, and the help of the warlock who Alec had wanted so desperately to allow himself to fall for (and had been terrified to do more than smile at his flirting) Alec walked away from everything and everyone. He left New York behind and made himself a home in the small town of Prayer – a joke Magnus found particularly funny.
But, two years after that fateful night, Alec’s old life comes knocking, and those strings he thought he’d finally cut are tugging him home. Back to the place he never wanted to have to see again.
At least this time, he’s not facing it alone.

Summary
Clary was sitting on the edge of the roof’s railing, her feet swinging and dangling into the air. She looked out towards the skyline with a crease in her brow. Alec took a couple of steps towards her, trying to step louder with his feet so he didn’t startle her. He came up right next to her before she said anything.
“Hi Alec,” she said, the hands in her lap suddenly very interesting. “I activated my equilibrium rune. Don’t worry.”
“I wasn’t worried. You know your runes better than a lot of us,” Alec replied, taking out his stele and running it over his own equilibrium rune behind his right shoulder.

Summary
As a child, she dreamed of a prince trapped in a burning tower, put there by an evil queen so he’d love no one but her; she was the princess meant to rescue him, yet no matter how hard she tried, how many times she climbed that burning tower in dreams she never made it to the top.

Summary
This moment has been a long time coming. Though Alec had never wanted to take it this far, he'd always kept the idea there in the back of his mind. Something that he could do if the need ever proved great enough.
He was tired of fighting against the Lightwood name. Tired of trying to atone for sins he had never committed. Ever since he’d been old enough to walk Alec had carried the weight of generations on his shoulders. He’d shouldered the responsibility of being the oldest son, the Lightwood heir, the one who was going to – who had to – bring honor to the Lightwood name. Even before he’d known the true depths of their dishonor the weight had still been a heavy one.
No more. With one swipe of the stele, Alec was going to set his own path forward. One where he hoped he could do enough to make the angel proud.
