Irresistible
by psychicdreamsandangelwings
"Maryse and Robert are his parents, Jace is his parabatai, and Izzy is his little sister. They’re obligated to feel something for him, god forbid he becomes the Lightwood’s estranged disappointment, and sometimes Alec feels like that cancels out the fact that they love him. Almost as if they only love him because they’re family. He knows that's not entirely true, but sometimes he feels like that anyway. With Magnus it's different. Magnus doesn't have to stay with Alec, for the first time Alec feels as if he has to make an effort to keep someone he likes interested in him. And that scares him, how dependent he's become on Magnus and how willing he is to do things just to keep him around. It makes him feel pathetic. He knows that eventually Magnus will get tired of him, everyone does, and it’ll break his fucking heart."Or the one where Alec's insecurities pile up but Magnus reassures him and then they make out.

TA Work 9314978

College/Non-Shadowhunter AUIt's not easy to catch the eye of the Magnificent Magnus Bane, and it's even harder - some might say impossible - to become the object of his pursuit. So what is it about this dark haired, blushing T.A. that makes Magnus want so bad, for the first time in what feels like a lifetime? Will Herondale was done with relationships after his last one ended on epically bad terms. Jem Carstairs knows that he doesn't have much to offer a partner in terms of a future, so he doesn't bother with emotional investment. They're both just expecting some no-strings-attached fun, turns out, the universe doesn't care about their expectations. Or, the one where Alec T.A.'s for one of Magnus's classes and Magnus goes on a mission to find out who he is and how to get him out on a date. Shenanigans ensue. And along the way, they just might figure it out. Will and Jem meet at the hospital where Jem is being treated for his chronic illness and Will works as a nurse. Banter and sexy times ensue. And then things get complicated. Reposted with MAJOR revisions from FF.net. If I forgot any important tags please let me know and I will fix them.

Even When Were Apart Ill
by TheTessaRose
"Magnus knew that Alec was still rather insecure regarding himself in their relationship—he knew that Alec constantly worried if what he was doing was enough or maybe even too much when it came to Magnus—and the Warlock couldn’t blame his Nephilim for these insecurities; he’s well-aware that Magnus is Alec’s first everything, a thought that both terrifies and immensely pleases the Warlock. Magnus does his best to show just how happy he is being with Alec—happier than he has ever, ever been, truly—but somehow the younger still finds reasons to worry. Magnus imagines that, moments like these when he’s caught off guard and not actually trying to reassure his younger lover—when he’s simply saying what’s true and not what he feels like he needs to say—are the moments that mean the most to Alec himself."(Or in other words; Alec and Magnus haven't been spending much time together recently, and Alec worries that this might change Magnus' feelings about them. Magnus just wants Alec to realize how much he loves him)

To Calm Down A
by rhubsi
Magnus took in the Shadowhunter’s dark circles, stormy eyes and dirty clothes. Almost all of his runes were fresh and the stamina rune was still burning away. The warlock didn’t want to know how many times Alec had repeatedly drawn that.

Curiousity and Cats
by Mortalacademy
AU: Alec and Magnus both work at boring office jobs, but on different sides of the city. They both grin and bear it, because-well-it pays good. However, they both know of one another, and neither have high regards for the other. Though they don't know one another face-to-face, something is about to bring them together, even if they don't want it too. Something with white fur...
