MALEC - LECRIT EDITION

because her writing is amazing!

(her profile link: Lecrit )

And the Oscar goes to...

Summary:

Working for Magnus isn’t easy. Magnus is out of control and Alec has to yell more often than not to get him to listen to him. He hates everything formal because it means he has to watch his mouth. Most importantly, Magnus is an incorrigible flirt. Which would be alright if Alec wasn’t utterly, irremediably, unfathomably in love with him. Based on this prompt: "AU where Magnus is an Oscar winning actor and Alec, his PA, is in love with him."

Love Is Not a Victory March

by j__writes and Lecrit

Summary:

“I think we should get a divorce.” Alec and Magnus have been married for years but busy work schedules keep them apart and when they do finally manage to spend time together, they fight. A divorce seems to be their only solution at this point, but neither of them is ready to give up without a fight. And a fight it might be. After all, relationships take effort. A story about how to fall in love all over again.

Bright Lights, Small Town

Summary:

When Magnus gets to Nashville, Indiana to handle his late mother's will, he doesn't expect to be forced to stay there for six months. Six months away from New York and lost in the wildness of the countryside. It quickly appears that he is going to go through six months of living hell. The fact that he hates the local veterinarian on sight isn't helping.

Rumor Has It

Summary:

Magnus widens his eyes at him, silently asking him to just give him this one. Alec simply curves one of his stupidly perfect eyebrows in response, a simple gesture that carries the weight of a call for challenge. “Looks like you’re gonna have to postpone your wedding for now,” Maia giggles next to him. Magnus huffs, flexing his jaw. “Oh, it’s on, Lightwood,” he mouths at him. . Or the one where Alec and Magnus are both after the same guy, but end up falling for each other instead.

Invictus

Summary:

“You should get a tattoo.” Alec firmly believed in coincidences, in the serendipity that could bring the hazards of life, but even he could admit that sometimes, things seemed to happen for a reason. He was too much of a pragmatic person to truly believe in fate and destiny. So even when Jace blurted those words at him as he stumbled into his shop, they remained abstract concepts to him, no matter how it nudged at the back of his mind.

February Malec fic rec!

Thanking @kalalab for this month's theme which is enemies to lovers! The same rules still apply, about one fic per author, but all of these authors have other brilliant fics you should be reading and if you want to add your own recs in the comments, tags, or reblogs please feel free to do so! 😊

Also, I have tagged the authors whose Tumblr account I know, but if you'd prefer I not tag you, please tell me so! I don't want these to be annoying for the authors.

One-shots:

Rumor Has It by Lecrit: A human AU which is not something I'm generally a fan of, but Lecrit just writes so well that I gobble this up anyway.

Summary:

Magnus widens his eyes at him, silently asking him to just give him this one. Alec simply curves one of his stupidly perfect eyebrows in response, a simple gesture that carries the weight of a call for challenge. “Looks like you’re gonna have to postpone your wedding for now,” Maia giggles next to him. Magnus huffs, flexing his jaw. “Oh, it’s on, Lightwood,” he mouths at him.

Also, because I suck at keeping to my own rules, I'm adding a second fic rec that I maybe love just as much by Lecrit aka the way to a chef's heart. But, in my defense, both fics are great and one is about cooking and baking. I am weak when it comes to food, okay?

Anyway, summary:

After a scorching review on his restaurant in one of the world's most famous food magazines, world class chef Magnus Bane is set on finding the food critic who dared to slander his art and make him change his mind. He doesn't expect someone as stubborn or infuriating as Alec Lightwood

you're the light that i won't let go by oh-la-fraise: Another human AU as well as an Enemies to Lovers with a twist.

Summary:

There were three unspoken rules to the Manhattan Institute of Higher Learning, New York’s premier private K-12 school: 1) Respect that the space under the football bleachers was for sex, and only for sex. 2) Don’t eat the cafeteria meatloaf. 3) Never mention Mr. Bane to Mr. Lightwood or vice versa, unless you wanted the whole class to get extra homework.

careless curses by @alexanderlightweight: I don't know what to say that isn't already stated in the summary except I love it when alexanderlightweight writes dark themes. (Or just writes in general).

Summary:

The Lightwood family has been cursed by death for generations and now, Alec lives with death hovering over him. Sometimes life is the curse and death the reward.

Ten Not-Dates That Magnus Bane Spends Falling In Love with Alec Lightwood by Aria_Lerendeair: Magnus is hilariously done at the start of this fic.

Summary:

Magnus was going to have words with the Clave. They would be decidedly unpleasant words, and they might be accompanied by a few very pointed magic blasts and maybe even curses.  They deserved it. Another Lightwood in charge of the New York Institute?

Multi-chapter fics or series:

All the Costs are Even by tsujiharu: A fic that deserves more love imo, is this Pride and Prejudice retelling. Also, I'm just now realizing that most of these are Human AU's despite me being notorious for generally not liking them, lol.

Summary:

A modern day Pride and Prejudice AU, in which a disgruntled lawyer and an aloof entrepreneur can't seem to get over their pride (and prejudices?) and admit their very obvious attraction to each other.

love is a four-letter word by @la-muerta: Do la-muerta fics need to be recced? Probably not because I suspect most people have read them. Am I still going to to rec them because I love them? Yes! So here is another lovely human AU fic where first impressions maybe aren't what they seem.

Summary:

Magnus knows he's one of the best editors in the business. So when the bigoted director of the publishing house he works for gives their grandson's best friend the promotion Magnus deserved to get, he decides that it's the last straw. Magnus intends to go out with a bang and take his new boss down with him — but he didn't mean for it to happen quite so literally.

Crush On You by @gospi: A FTH fic of 2023 that had me laughing at how salty Alec is about crushing on Magnus. A lot of fun.

Summary:

An ancient, unsuccessful recipe for starting new relationshipsalliances: A dash of rumors. A sprinkle of heritage. A smidgen of jealousy. A dollop of chaotic disasters. A shitload of assumptions. Let it simmer. Enjoy!

My True Love Gave To Me by AlxSteele: Christmas repeats itself endlessly for Magnus and while it's annoying he does end up learning a new side from the awful baked Alec Lightwood. Surprise, he isn't all that awful.

Summary:

Magnus Bane had a plan, a perfect Christmas Eve just like always. Hang out with his friends, bask in the Christmas Spirit. Then everything went wrong. Now he's stuck reliving the same day again and again and again. The bright side? Maybe Alec Lightwood isn't as terrible as Magnus always thought.

A fic that I am sure most people have already read because it is wonderful (which is the reason why I didn't add it last month even though it's a wing fic) is Fall Without Wings by @notcrypticbutcoy. It's a brilliant fic that's all.

Summary:

Or: In which the Nephilim have wings, are taught to loathe Downworlders, and Alec is presented with a conundrum when Magnus Bane saves his life.

Yoongi wets his lips again, and Seokjin hums quietly before leaning in again, tugging Yoongi closer with his grip on the scarf.

2- The Truth's worth (ao3 by Lecrit). Pairing: Yoongi x Seokjin. THEIR DYNAMIC, THE PLOT... I love the modern royal au and all the political schemes.

3- Painter Of Time (Twitter and ao3 by kyrifics). Pairing : Yoongi x Jimin. This fic torned my heart appart and then Mended it back again. I keep it so close to my heart

4- Ukiyo (sharleena). Pairing: Yoongi x Jimin. The urban fantasy setting. The mafia like plot.... I love every part of it. I'm gonna cry.

5- A wolf's kiss (by minjiiminie my fav writter alongside lecrit). Pairing: yoongi x Jimin. This IS just adorable and fluffy. The found family trope IS Always great.

A year of Malec #13

Today we have the delightful Bright Lights, Small Town by Lecrit. Thank you too @pocketoffeels for recommending this!

Rating: Explicit

Summary: When Magnus gets to Nashville, Indiana to handle his late mother's will, he doesn't expect to be forced to stay there for six months. Six months away from New York and lost in the wildness of the countryside.

It quickly appears that he is going to go through six months of living hell.

The fact that he hates the local veterinarian on sight isn't helping.

We hope you all enjoy the story, and feel free to let us know what you think!

Happy reading! 

[malectober]

Honestly, it’s kinda obvious that enemies to lovers is THE best trope. Maybe not, but it’s definitely up there.

It’s also kind of obvious why it fits malec so well

They’re both such opposites. Born on opposite sides. The Angelic warrior and the Demon’s child.

They were meant to hate each other. But they don’t.

Under the cut are a few stories where they do dislike each other - and then fall in love anyway

The Greatest Trick in the World by @cuubism - magician Magnus and skeptical journalist Alec

Take Me to Church - by @khaleesiofalicante - architects Magnus and Alec, and a joint project

of midnight visitors and unlikely allies - by @high-warlock-of-brooklyn - Alec knocks on Magnus’s door one midnight

Between The Lines - by msalexiscrisis - Cop Alec Lightwood and the ever elusive con artist Magnus Bane

Love to Hate You - by MissYouSoFar - Shadowhunters Alec and Magnus, midnight patrols, and a whole lot of sexual tension

In My Veins - by Larrylover3000 - Med students AU, Magnus and Alec get paired up on a group project

A Weakness for the Pretty Things - by SolarisRasa - Downworld leader Magnus Bane who captures the new Head of the NY Institute

Detest, Demise, Desire - by @dustandducks - Vampire hunter Magnus who gets hired by the Lightwoods, a family of vampires

Masters of War - by Lecrit - Human AU, Magnus and Alec hate each other from the first night, until they don’t.

Ammonia and Magic - by Queenie18 - Shadowhunter Alec gets captured by The Great Destruction, the son of a Prince of Hell

(For some reason, tumblr isn’t letting me paste the links to the last two, so sorry about that! :(( )

Am I as excited as Jack Donaghy getting an Apollo rocket? Only time will tell...

Have you ever started reading a new fic...

and it is soooooo right up your alley...

like its hits a lot of buttons...

so many, that you can barely sit still to read it...

and your eyeballs keep bouncing up and down so you can barely focus...

and you manage to get through like the first 500 words, and then you get even more excited...

and then you realize its a series...

with a total of like 250k words...

and your boss isn’t in the office today...

yeah, its gonna be a good day :)

thanks @lecrit​

[mirrorofliterature]

Chasing Paolo is easy, because there is nothing more behind it than harmless play.

Alec is different, because Alec is everything. 

A snippet from the humorous yet heartwarming fic Rumor Has It by the brilliant @lecrit - where Magnus (and Alec) come to terms with something they've been ignoring.

[khaleesiofalicante]

OMG DANI

U have to have to have to have to have to read this fic called- the Avangers initiative (or something like that) by Lecrit, it's a malec TMI gang fic and it's amazing. It's complete and it's 21 chaps.

I think ul like it.

They literally have the exact same roles as you described in your ask. It is slow burn.

The summary-

Do you really think it’s going to work? I know they are good,” Hodge sighed, “but that’s a lot of egos we need to get to work together.”

“It will work,” Luke said with assurance, nodding. “They can do it.” In which Luke Garroway and Hodge Starkweather put together a team of world-class thieves to steal from Valentine Morgenstern and everything goes according to plan. Or not.

WAIT I HAVE READ THIS FIC JKSDENJKENDKA.

Was it the exact same roles??? Damn okay :( (I don't like writing stuff that is too derivative sigh). But I remember this fic vaguely and definitely need to reread it.

OKAY NEW PLAN. MAGNUS AND ALEC AS THE CON ARTISTS AND SOME JEALOUSY WHEN THEY DO ALL THE FLIRTING AH.
