Summary
"Seems like unnecessary trouble," Caleb remarks. His hand dips beneath Essek's outer robe, fingering the next layer down: a heavier, ornamental swathe of fabric with gold and silver embroidery around the neckline. "Not easy to get on and off quickly. The layers."
"I manage well enough," Essek replies, tilting his chin upwards. He aims to be haughty, but only grants Caleb further access to the intricate fastenings around his throat. "It is no trouble if one knows what they are doing. And I know what I'm doing."
There's a pause where Caleb says nothing, but his eyes stray to the silver details of Essek's collar. He studies the clasp like he would a page in his spell book.
Then, he says, his voice pitched low:
“Has no-one ever taken you out of your clothes, Herr Thelyss?”
Five nights spent together in Aeor. Five mornings awaking in the Blooming Grove.
A series of interconnected one shots.

Summary
“I was afraid that the next time you walked into my life, I wouldn’t know how we fit together,” Alec whispers. “I was worried that something inside of me, inside of you, would’ve changed, because things always change after this long, but - it hasn’t.”
Beneath Alec’s palm, Washington lies hidden. In the dark, the atlas rustles.
“You haven’t, Magnus. Not when it comes to me.”
Two almost-lovers re-encounter one another by pure serendipity at a diner in the middle of nowhere. Together, they embark on a roadtrip across the continental United States, aware that at the end of the journey, they will separate again.
This time, there is a choice not to let go once they reach their destination.

Summary
[“There’s this thing that you do,” Alec murmurs. “This power you have that makes you look indestructible.”
“You know that’s not true,” says Magnus.
“I do,” replies Alec, “But even then … there are times when I’m not so sure.”]
1992, New York, a city hanging on to politically-tinged Cold War feelings. Alec Lightwood is a Corporate - a superhero for hire - jostling with a secret identity, holding on to a sense of a normal life, and the fact vigilantes keep turning up murdered in the gutters with no explanation.
Things can only get worse when Magnus - an investigative journalist - starts peeling back Alec’s carefully-crafted mask … and then there’s the mysterious vigilante with the power to move things with his mind who keeps turning up wherever Alec goes - Alec just can’t cut a break.
A neonoir slow-burn superheroes AU about identity, truth, and falling in love without knowing someone’s real name (ft. everyone has superpowers because I couldn’t help myself).

Summary
[ “I can’t wait another hundred years to see you again, Alexander.”
He hates it, he does. He hates the way Alec looks at him with a history they haven’t yet shared.
Alec’s fingers dig into his ribs. A moment of hesitation. “You won’t have to wait that long,” he murmurs, quiet enough to be a secret. “I promise.”
“You don’t know that.”
Alec stops, forcing Magnus to stop too. Magnus squints at him, seeing double, but Alec shakes his head. “Magnus, I do.”
“How?”
“Because,” says Alec, and once again, Magnus feels the tug of magic kneading at his skin, a string of fate that wraps around his bottom rib and leads beyond his chest and enters Alec’s in exactly the same place. “You and me, we always find our way back to each other. Whatever happens.” ]
Magnus Bane meets a man from his future, interwoven throughout moments in his past.

Summary
“And…” She held up a hand that quivered slightly. “I’m magic.”
The implication struck him and he only barely managed to keep himself from falling on her, ready to devour her whole.
“You… You don’t know what you’re offering.” Each word was a struggle to get out and his hand became a claw where it was pressed against his chest.
“I know what I’m offering,” she insisted.
“No, you don’t.” He grimaced as another wave hit him, his very bones aching.
“I could devour you,” he warned, pleaded. If she reconsidered, took back her offering, took the choice from him, he wouldn’t have to worry. He couldn’t outright refuse, not with her there, so close, that crackling magic of hers and the heat of her body a waved carrot in front of a hungry maw. The words wouldn’t come. He was only so strong.
She met his gaze, steady, direct. “So devour me.”
