"The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars / But in ourselves, that we are underlings." In a world where Magnus and Alec never met, Jace is dead, and Valentine won the Battle of Brocelind Plain, disobedience means death. So what happens when Alec and Magnus meet and Alec fails to carry out his sworn duty: the elimination of all Downworlders? WARNINGS: homophobia & self-harm.

Outtakes from my AU "Certain Dark Things". Will begin with what happens to Jay post-Certain Dark Things, but will eventually include all the one-shots you guys requested. If you want anything new, just pop it in a review or let me know on tumblr :) Rated

Magnus Bane has lived for hundreds of years, searching for a way to distinguish himself against the backdrop of history. As he searches for a purpose, he never stops to consider that what he is is lonely - that is, until a certain blue-eyed Shadowhunter steps into his loft. One shot chronicle of Magnus's life.

"We are but dust and Shadow" - Horace. After Max's death Alec depends solely on Magnus to help him through his grief. However, when a young shadowhunter is sent to train at the Institute under Alec's tutelage, he discovers that he's missed a lot during his self-imposed exile. And the more Alec finds out, the more he suspects that Magnus is hiding something.

Alec, a wounded soldier, moves back to New York to heal and get over his love for his squad mate, Jace. While there, he meets Magnus Bane, the promiscuous and seemingly callous eyes and ears of the city. Will the two be able to heal each other?

Alec finds an old trunk full of mementos in Magnus's closet and is upset to find that there's nothing in there to remind Magnus of him. Or is there? Inspired by the short story "Magnus's Vow".
