SANDY'S SUNDAY SNIPPET
Lydia frowned. “Why are you so determined to help Downworlders?”
Alec sighed heavily and looked away. He couldn’t meet Lydia’s gaze upon uttering the honest answer. “Because... I know you don’t understand what it’s like to be discriminated, ridiculed and looked down on simply for being what you were born as. You’ve never lived that way. But I have. And... I want to try to help them have better lives. I don’t want them to feel ashamed forever.”

Impersonating Dad. It’s fun to imagine little Max going round copying little traits and things Alec and Magnus do that they don’t even realise, but it’s really endearing

Small Town Diner Malec AU
Okay, absurdedly random thought about mundane small town au Malec, where Alec has a diner and Magnus moves there to raise his daughter Madzie.
random diner scene:
Magnus: "Alexander! Did you spruce up your menu? Is that glitter I see?"
Alec: "Your daugther thought it needed to look "cheerier"."
Magnus: "Ah. Should have realized she had a hand in this by that little unicorn drawing in the bottom corner."
Alec: "So that's what that is. I couldn't really make it out and just told her it was beautiful. Though to be honest, my money was on rhinoceros."
(will have more parts that I will try to remember adding the links to here.)

Possibly unpopoular opinion, but while I adore magic wielding Magnus, I don't necessarily asscociate Magnus with magic. Because magic is something he was born with, and had no influence over possessing.
More, I asscociate a scientific mind and curiosity with him, because that is what drove him to learn about his magic, expand and experiment with it. So for me, Magnus is a scholar and scientist at heart more than he is a mage.
Same why I asscociate the bow with Alec. Because he had no say over becoming a fighter, but he chose the bow.

Petition for un-shy Alec.
Magnus: "Good luck in the competition, Alexander."
Alec: "You know what works really well for luck? A kiss."
Alec: "I think I could work through this paperwork much faster if you sat on my lap."
Magnus: *just raises an eyebrow actually*
Alec: "Okay, it won't be faster, but it will definitely be more fun."

super cracky and not to be taken too seriously.
But Magnus being all giddy about "mundane engineering" when it comes to every day tools.
Completely run of the mill things, like salad spinners.
"Look Darling, this is what Mundanes use to dry their salads after washing the leafes! You put the salad in this sieve like bowl, which you put into this other bowl, on which you then put this funky thing, and then put on the lid, and then the lid aligns with the funky thing, and here is a knob for you to grab and rotate. And then that creates a centrifugal force that spins the inside sieve like bowl, and this just flings the water off your salad leaves! completely without magic or electricity! Isn't that so neat? And have you seen this apple slicer? Genius!"
Also
Magnus: "This is a fanny pack. Another fine example of mudane ingenuity. The name might suggest that it is to be worn over your ass, but I thought it would be more appropriate on the front. It has a lot of space for you phone, wallet, keys,-"
Alec: "I think you are supposed to wear that over your clothes?"
Magnus: "-condoms, lube, handcuff-"
Alec: "Nevermind." *grabs Magnus' hand and hauls him to the bedroom*

Not another mundane meet-cute!
crash Izzy getting out of her car: "Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?"
Clary gettingout of her car: "Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?"
Izzy: "I'm good. I think I'm good. I don't know. Am I bleeding anywhere?"
Clary: "No. I don't see anything. Any pain? Am I bleeding anywhere?"
Izzy: "No, you look good. And no, no pain. You?"
Clary: "No, nothing. Just a bit shook."
Izzy: "Me too. So, are we, I don't know, are we supposed to do something now? Call an ambulance or something?"
Clary: "But neither of us are hurt, right?"
Izzy: "Right. Shouldn't do that then. Would just take them away from people that really need help. Uhm, then we should… call the police?"
Clary: "Or just trade insurance info?"
Izzy: "… I don't know. Let me call my older brother real quick, he should know."
Clary: "Oh, good idea! I'll call Magnus! He is basically my older brother. I mean, technically he lives across the hall from us, but he has basically adopted us into his fold. Actually, this is his car, so I should probably call him anyway."
Izzy: "Sounds good. And ditto on this being my brother's car, too."
-
Izzy, on the phone: "Alec! How is my favorite brother in this whole, wide world?" Alec, on the other end: "What did you do?"
Clary on the phone: "Magnus, I'm so sorry! I damaged your car!" Magnus, on the other end: "Were you in the car when you damaged it? Are you alright? Don't worry about the car, I have 3 more."
-
The phone conversation:
Clary: "I'm fine, don't worry. But I kinda don't know what to do now? And neither does the woman I crashed into-" Magnus: "Crashed in to?! You crashed?! Are you sure you are alright?" Clary: "I'm okay, just a bit jittery still. But, the other woman and I both don't know if we need to-" Magnus: "You can't be sure you are fine! You just had a car accident. That might just be the adrenaline running through your veins, making you think you are fine, when in reality, you broke three bones and have a concussion!" Clary: "Magnus, I promise I'm okay. I just need to know if we should call the police to make a report, or if we are good just trading insurance-" Magnus: "You are not okay! Stay where you are, I'm sending you an ambulance! Actually, where are you?" Clary: "You don't need to send an ambulance!" Magnus: "Okay, I tracked your location, good thing my car has gps. I will call the ambulance on my way. Be right there, Biscuit!" Clary: "Magnus, you don't- damn, he hung up."
meanwhile with Izzy
Izzy: "Why do you automatically assume that I have done something just because I'm calling you and trying to be nice?" Alec: "Experience built up over 20 years of being your brother. So, what did you do?" Izzy: "I didn't do anything. However, what happened is that I may have been speeding a bit, and another woman may have forgot to put her turn signal, and then we may have crashed into each other." Alec: "Crashed???! You crashed into another car? Another car crashed into you? Are you alright?" Izzy: "I'm fine, don't have a cow. I only called because I'm unsure about the following procedure? Like, what are the rules in play here?" Alec: "… You are asking about how to follow the rules? On your own accord? Instead of just flying by the seat of your pants? You must have a concussion. I'm coming!" Izzy: "NO, Alec- … fuck."
-
And that's how Malec meet. 🤣

I cannot possibly explain my thought process, but this gif, for *some* reason, makes me think of anti-hero Magnus who keeps finding the heroes (Alec and co) entrapped or in some other kind of trouble, and then helps them out. At first very annoyed, but with every additional save, he kinda warms up to them.

Asking his college roommate, best friend, ~~and secret crush ~~Magnus to pretend to be his boyfriend when coming across his ex in the mall during christmas shopping was not the worst idea Alec had ever had.
However, he hadn't anticipated that the vendor selling cinnamon buns next to them was an old friend of his mother who still regularly shared gossip with her. Neither did he anticipate that only an hour later, his whole family, including all the neighbors in his sleepy little hometown, had heard the news about Alec's new boyfriend.
Max's text message of a confusing string of emojis was... confusing,
Izzy's text message of "Impressed you managed to keep this secret for so long, you sneaky asshole." was puzzling,
jace's text message of "About f-ing time, dude. Does that mean you will stop emo-brooding now every time you see something glittery?" was just plain weird,
but when his mom called, cheer in her voice and overly enthusiastic to demand he "bring your boyfriend for christmas, won't you? We are all so excited to finally meet him!"
Alec knows he is in trouble.
(yes, I know. this has been done before. I don't care. it's a fun classic!)

At this point my entire Shadowhunters’ universe is a bizarre accumulation of Shadowhunters TV and The Mortal Instruments. I know the distinctions, but it doesn’t matter to my brain.
I watch the show and: Damn TMI gang! Go Team Good✨
Reading the book series saying: It’s such a shame Dot isn’t here! I bet Magnus is missing her!

Why nobody talked about this Malec kiss? It’s kind, tender, soft, vulnerable, cute, head over heel… Damn I’m out of words 🥹🥹🥹
My image every time I watch this scene is totally like a gorilla for screaming crying giggling kicking my feet 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 And every time it feels like the first time ✨
