    Summary

    When Magnus was called to the Institute late one night, he wasn't entirely sure what he expected to happen. Late night calls often meant injured nephilim or some other serious threat. But there was always a chance the new Head had called him in about the wards or some other random shadow world business. Hell, maybe he just wanted a meeting to assert his dominance the same way the last Heads had liked to do.

    What he hadn’t expected at all was to find himself suddenly neck-deep in the biggest magical, political mess since the Dragon Wars.

    Summary

    For as long as there’d been Shadowhunters roaming the earth, using the powers granted to them by the blood of angels that flowed through their veins, there had been dragons. Wonderful, stunning creatures of magic who, for some reason that no one knew, bonded to Shadowhunters and Shadowhunters alone in one of the only shows of magic the Clave approved of.

    It was a ritual when a Shadowhunter had their first rune ceremony for it to be followed by a trip to Idris. There, in the sacred nesting grounds where all dragons went to lay their eggs, a Shadowhunter would walk through those already hatched and those waiting, and they would find their dragon. Sometimes they’d find them in the youths playing, the two drawn together with a bond considered even more sacred than that of parabatai. Other times, the touch of the Rider would be enough to draw a dragon from their egg.

    It was rare for a dragon to reach adulthood without bonding to their Rider.

    It was unheard of for a Shadowhunter not to have a dragon.

    Summary

    Everyone has their own resolution for the s02e18 break up. Here's mine. It comes in moments, not grand gestures.

    "What would he have done, Magnus?" Jace asked coolly, one foot already out the door. "If it had been you, if you were the one to mess up, what would he have done?"

    They both knew the answer to that, and it broke Magnus' heart all over again.

    "Stayed," Magnus finally whispered, shattering whatever illusions he'd been clinging to since the day he left Alec at the infirmary.

    "He would have stayed."
