    Summary

    Alec Lightwood was once the talk of the American pop scene, touring the world before he was old enough to drink. These days, however, he struggles to get a song played on the local radio stations.

    To widen his image, and give his new music some exposure, Alec's label, Idris, signs him up for Dancing With the Stars, making it clear that this is a last-ditch effort to warrant him staying with the Iabel.

    Unable to face going home empty-handed, Alec prepares to make a fool of himself and get sent home in the first few weeks.

    But what you want isn't always what you need, and Magnus Bane might make a dancer out of him yet.

    Summary

    When Magnus is slammed on social media after his break-up with Camille, his manager persuades him Dancing With the Stars could help repair his reputation. Magnus agrees on one condition - he be allowed to compete in drag.

    Meanwhile in LA, Alec has gotten used to being an ensemble dancer, while his sister and his best friend get the celebrity partners and the limelight. But a last minute change of plans means the producers are in need of an extra body, and a male one at that.

    Our boys are paired together, and it goes exactly how you'd expect it to. (Very badly, and then considerably better when they figure their shit out, lol). A Dancing With The Stars AU with many characters and much flirting.

    No other reason.
