Headcanons about Magnus’s relationships & Malec’s marriage

Does anyone else ever think that the reason why Magnus has so many lovers, beside his natural flirty nature & abnormally long life span, was because of some complex from childhood trauma? Like he always wanted to feel loved & constantly need somebody to love him because no one love him when he was a child?

And the reason why he never get married? I don’t think he never thought of it. But he kind of thought that people wouldn’t want to stay with him when they got old & he is not. In fact, many lovers did choose to leave him when they aged. So even if he wanted to marry someone, he never do anything about it, never think of proposing. And that habit remains even when he is with Alec. He believed Alec will stay with him until the end, but he assumed that they will just be together like this, as boyfriends/lovers for the rest of their Alec’s life. Then one day Alec proposed to him & he was speechless, because no one had ever chose to stay with him & no one had ever thought of spent their entire life with him & he was never been proposed in 400 years of his life so for the first time in a very long time he kind of don’t know what to react.

Lots of people think Magnus will be the one who proposed, because he is the romantic one, but I prefer a proposal from Alec. Opposite to people’s belief, Alec can actually take initiative in their relationship & in fact he did that a lot.

Someone might said “But they live together everyday, it isn’t important that they are married or not”. Let me tell you why it is important.

I once read a manga, where the boy is a warrior who went to dangerous battle everyday. He wanted to marry a girl who is in higher rank in society than him, which is difficult but not impossible, only it would cause not himself but his commander & teammates a lot of troubles. And his teammate asked him “Is it necessary to marry her? You two can remains lovers for the rest of your life. Isn’t it enough?” and the boy answered “It’s important because if we get married, she will be the first person who get the information if I die in battle. We live this dangerous life where nobody know when we are gonna die, this is the least I can promise her”.

Imagine if one day Alec died in his mission & they weren’t married, even if everyone knew they are together, the Clave will still tell his family first & let them tell Magnus later. But if they were officially married in Clave’s ceremony, Magnus will be Alec’s priority contact & get the straight information. Sometimes title is very important.

tmi meme: five locations
[2/5] Magnus’ loft Magnus’s door was cracked slightly open, and the sounds of music playing softly wafted out into the hall. Today it was Tchaikovsky. Alec felt his shoulders relax as the door of the apartment shut behind him. He could never be quite sure how the place was going to look-it was minimalist right now, with white couches, red stacking tables, and stark black-and-white photos of Paris on the walls-but it had begun to feel increasingly familiar, like home. It smelled like the things he associated with Magnus: ink, cologne, Lapsang Souchong tea, the burned-sugar smell of magic

Malec – a different ending

Working on a real ending for Malec (because I cant satisfy with their ending in CoHF), here are what I come up so far:

First Magnus has to die. For whatever reason you can think of, but prefered a heroic one, for example saving Alec from a demon attack. They (Alec & friends) then summon a demon (it can be Magnus’ father to add more drama for the situation) to try to save Magnus from the death. (According to Cassie, powerful demons can do that, because Simon is technically dead before he becomes a vampire, now he is still alive. And Jace was dead once too)

Well, you know, because ‘All magic comes with a price’ so they have to pay something. and the demon want Alec’s life – a life for a life. Alec of course is willing to pay it, but others don’t let him it. So they come up with a solution, all of them will give up some years of their life.

For example, Alec’s fate is to live until he is 50, so he has around 30 years left, so the demon wants to take 30 years of Alec’s life. But instead everyone of them give up 6 years (6×5=30) – i only count Clary, Jace, Simon, Izzy & Alec here, but you can add more characters if you want, the more characters the less years they have to give up. 

But the demon thinks it’s too easy for them, so he want to add more condition: All the years Alec has left (30-6=24), he will have to give half to Magnus, so both him & Magnus can only live for 12 years more.

And last condition (because i’m a cruel person) is a classic one, when Magnus wakes up he will forget everything that ever happened in the TMI series, from the day he met Jocelyn Fairchild & baby Clary. He is still a warlock though (but he will have no idea that he can only live 12 years more). Don’t worry eventually he will remember just like Simon, but it will take a while, about 1 or 2 years.

With these, finally Magnus can get rid of immortality, they can be together but only for 10 years (honestly it’s quite romantic when you think about it, they can die together AT THE EXACT SAME TIME how cool is that huh. Imagine both of them curl up together on a bed, whisper I love you to each other before both pass away, they can literally die in each others’ arms)

Yes, that’s my final solution for Malec. What do you think? Is it bittersweet enough or should i add more? Maybe 10 years is too long, should i make it 5? (And at moment like this i wonder if i’m a sadist). Of course there are a lot of plot holes (for example, demon always want something that benefit them but all theses condition doesn’t benefit anyone at all) because i just think of it an hour ago, i’m still trying to solve them so the story can be more realistic

P/S: Feel free to use this idea for fanfiction, because i cant write & i do want someone to write this. Just dont forget to send me the link when you finish :3

You keep saying the past is the past, but the past make you who you are. I want to know about your life. And if you’re not willing to tell me about it, then I shouldn’t be with you. Because I know me, and I won’t ever be okay with it. So I shouldn’t put us both through that again

Alec Lightwood, City of Heavenly Fire

I’ve been sorry and I’ve been understood and I’ve apologized and apologized, and you haven’t ever been there. I did all that without you. So it makes me wonder what else I could do, WITHOUT YOU

Sort of finish CoHF, here is some thoughts on Malec (Part 1)

Well, everything turn out well, but it still feels like their story isn’t end yet. We still have TDA in the future so i still hope to see more of their relationship

Er, actually i expected A LOT more drama & epic arguements than this, but to be honest every Malec scenes makes my heart ache because they are so sweet even though there are not that much scenes they are together 

Robert & Alec’s conversation is kind of unsatisfying but hell, the Waywood part is the biggest plot twist of this book LOL

Alec is a wonderful human being mommy sorry for ever doubt you in the past ;______;

Magnus’ father was boring LOL Sorry you didnt impress me that much

Overall, it’s more of the sweet side than the angst i expected, at this point i would like to point out that i have read fanfics that handle their relationship better but you cant have everything so … dont get me wrong I like this ending too but there is still something not quite satisfying about it …

samanthapanther:

most of the time i’m like “i love this character a lot but i understand that they aren’t everyone’s cup of tea and some people might not like them”

but there are a few characters where i’m like “HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THIS PRECIOUS BABY ANGEL I WILL FUCKING FIGHT YOU”
