Summary
“I have prayed to the Angel every day since I first took you in my arms that I would be enough, mijo, that I could teach you and raise you and love you in the way that you deserve."
Max tightens his small, blue fists in the Shadowhunter's leathers, a sob building in his throat.
"But I'm not- I'm not enough for you."
Twenty years after the Clave brings the Circle's members back into their ranks after Valentine's death, an infant warlock is left on the steps of the New York Institute. Alec Lightwood will blow up the ground he stands on for those he loves.
Edit: Added a second coda chapter! (19AUG24)

Summary
It was on his way back from the stables that another scent caught his attention over all the rest. He noticed it before he actually spotted the source. It made Gil-Galad grit his teeth. Sickly sweet and overpowering: pain and fear.
He stopped in the courtyard, craning his neck, then pinpointed it: a little heap on the muddy cobbles, more meat than person. Skinny brown limbs tangled up like they’d been dumped there and hadn’t had the energy to rearrange. Vulnerable. Terrified. Not-quite-mannish…? That was a puzzle.
Gil-Galad’s nose wrinkled. He stalked across the courtyard for a better look.That was when he noticed the shape of the ears peeking out from the boy’s black, tangled hair.
Gil-Galad and Galadriel get caught out in a storm after a skirmish during the War of Wrath and decide to take shelter in the nearest sketchy edain border town, where they stumble across someone in need of rescuing.
(Basically, we're taking the "when did we first meet?" "Seaside...you gave me water." tidbit from the show finale in the WORST possible direction.)

Summary
There was an insecurity there, an odd sense of vulnerability in the brash young man that he couldn’t quite place. He prided himself on being an excellent judge of character, easily reading what others chose to keep hidden. DiNozzo was proving to be a conundrum, a shadow – a shape shifter, dancing away every time he thought he’d got a handle on the young Italian. He couldn’t read DiNozzo – and it was seriously pissing him off.
Yes, it’s a Gibbs meets Tony adventure – AU from the show, but the follow through is the same. Complete- Language:
