Summary
Alec Lightwood has never expected to be an Omega. It simply wasn't an option for him, wasn't possible.
When he turns fourteen, however, and has his rite of passage, presenting with his second gender, his world is flipped upside down when he shows up smelling unmistakably of Omega. With the support of his parabatai and younger sister in a shadowhunter society that will only ever look down on him, what happens when he finds society that might be a little more accepting?
What happens when he meets someone like Magnus Bane?
In which Alec lightwood comes to terms with a lot of the Calves stupid traditions, and decides to make nice with every goddamn downworlder in existence. clave be damned.
Because clearly THESE people know how to treat their omegas.
Werewolves? Charmed.
Vampires? Smitten.
Seelies? Fucking enchanted.
And to top it off, Alec was going date the hottest Warlock Brooklyn had ever seen.
- Summary & tags will be updated as story progresses, It's really just meant to be a nice self-indulgent fluffy fic with maybe some smut later that starts out with some angst and then hurt/comfort. Idk, we'll see how it goes.

Summary
"Despite purposefully cultivating this image, this mask of a perfect Shadowhunter, perfect son, it didn't stop him from being irrationally disappointed, upset even, when his siblings couldn't see underneath the facade. He wanted them to look at him, see the way his smiles never reached his eyes, how his shoulders hiked up to his ears when he had to speak in front of people, how his hands clenched into fists when his parents started making disparaging comments about Downworlders even as he nodded stiffly along.
He wanted them to see all the tells he hadn't quite managed to train himself out of yet, see all the jagged edges where his mask didn't quite seamlessly blend into skin.
But they didn't. And so he was alone.
It was this loneliness that was a marked fact of Alec’s life, an enduring and unchangeable truth about his existence."

or;
Alec struggles to reconcile his sexuality with his Shadowhunter identity.

Summary
Ten years ago Alexander Lightwood woke up to find his whole life turned upside down. The pain he’d been feeling for days had finally stopped, but in its place it left behind a magic he didn’t want and a mark he was sure he’d never be able to hide. Terrified of what his family might do, he ran away from home, sure that whatever waited out on the streets couldn’t be worse than what he’d find if he stayed.
It was by sheer luck that he happened to be found by Luke Garroway. Through him, Alec met Dot, the woman who would become both teacher and guardian, and he met the small, fierce little girl who would eventually become his best friend.
Over the years that passed, Alec learned to control his magic, and he’d made himself a life and a home. Maybe it wasn’t the one he’d expected to have, but it was his.
Only now, things are happening that threaten to tear that life apart. His old life is crashing into his new, and Alec was going to have to make some hard choices on who he could and couldn’t trust.

Summary
The Idris School prided itself on its inclusivity and excellence for all, it was why it was known for having students make great strides from their starting points and why they offered scholarships to several children a year that wouldn’t be able to afford it otherwise. It was why they were ranked in the top ten independent schools in the country despite their student body often arriving with their own issues to contend with. The reason The Idris School did so well... community. Family run, family values and family activities were the three cornerstones of how they provided a comprehensive education for all and created well-rounded, well-balanced individuals by the time they left. The family that ran it; The Lightwoods.
