SNEAK PEEK SUNDAY

Stealing this from @blairwaldcrf on account of every writing tag game they tagged me on in the past weeks that I couldn't do due to a severe lack of Actually Writing Shit! BUT I am actively working on a new story and am excited about it so have a sneak peek into my upcoming ABOverse Jimonael post canon multi-chapter fic! <3

(Also tagging @airasilver because this fic was born from your comment about Sugar Daddies Saphael and I've had a screenshot of the comment on my desktop since August so I won't forget to write it once I find time and motivation again!)

--

Jace didn’t think it was a secret he’d had a crush on Simon – he had been very vocal about that, after all he’d called Simon pretty to his face when they were in the Seelie Realm, but then everything at the court had happened and things between him and Simon became much more awkward, what with Jace being the reason Simon and his girlfriend broke up. Even though, painfully ironically, the one Jace would have wanted to kiss at that court had been Simon, not Clary, who he had come to look at as a sister in the time they’d believed themselves to be siblings.

Jace had developed a crush on Simon very early on; the nerd was hot and his rambling was cute. But inexplicably, Simon seemed to be falling from one relationship into the next – from his mundie bandmate, to Clary, to a very brief attempt at dating Maia, before getting together with Raphael. Every time Jace thought he’d have an opening to at least hook up with Simon, the vampire was already involved with someone else. And Simon never approached Jace himself either, despite Jace’s blatant flirting, so… Simon had made it clear he wasn’t interested.

And that was fine. Jace knew he was a lot to handle and not for everyone. However, what Jace wanted was some time and distance so he could get over his stupid crush on Simon. And being the personal liaison of the vampire clan led by Simon and Simon’s mate? That was the absolute opposite of what he wanted or needed right now.

WIP WEDNESDAY

Tagged by @blairwaldcrf! Thank you, dear! And I'm tagging anyone who wants to do this! <3

Shadowhunters, Raphael/Simon/Jace: Light of Their (After)Life, chapter 9

“This is really not necessary,” Jace frowned. “I have clothes.”

“You do,” Raphael nodded in agreement and took a sip from his wine. “And as good as you look in torn, washed out jeans and too tight shirts, you deserve to wear something as stunning as you are.”

Jace heaved a sigh as Marco nudged him to spread his arms. Another fitting. Not for just one suit, though. Pants, shirts, multiple suits. A whole wardrobe, really. Raphael had insisted on taking him shopping, the day after the alphas’ declaration of their intends. They wanted to court him. Jace still didn’t know what to do with that. Dating was one thing, but courting had the intend of a mate-bond.

Something he could only compare to the parabatai-bond – tying your soul to someone, a bond that could not easily be broken, and even more importantly in this case, a bond that would make them share their immortality with Jace. Beyond the bite, the only way to become immortal was a mate-bond with an immortal. Jace knew that, very well, because he’d been doing research into it ever since Magnus and Alec had sealed their mate-bond. There was no way Jace was going to leave Alec behind for eternity with a broken parabatai-bond. But Jace wasn’t entirely sure if Raphael and Simon were aware that the mate-bond would mean they’d be stuck with him for eternity.

“Piece of advise: Just let him have this,” Simon grinned softly at Jace. “I meant it, Raph really does like to spoil those he cares about. So, give up and let him spoil you.”

2. Shadowhunters, Malace: Lust and Love, oneshot

(Jalec Bingo prompt fill for "seven deadly sins", leaning into the fact that Magnus is the son of Asmodeus, demon of lust, and giving him some incubus-like powers)

It was a normal night, Magnus sat in his VIP lounge, with his adoring followers. Few friends, most simply people who hoped they would be lucky enough to be taken home by the High Warlock. Magnus had always loved the attention, the adoration. It was a normal night, until a Shadowhunter caught his attention. The Shadowhunter was staring at him and with Shadowhunters, Magnus never knew where that would lead. Was it lust, or was it going to be trouble?

The question was quickly answered when, all of a sudden, the blonde man dropped onto his knees in front of Magnus. Mh. The warlock smiled bemused. It was very rare for him to have this strong an effect on someone. He was the son of Asmodeus, king of Edom and demon of lust. His children tended to have succubus and incubus qualities, to varying degrees. While Magnus himself didn’t solely rely on it, he could strengthen his magic by feeding on the energy created during sex.

He had a certain sexual aura that drew humans in. Not every person reacted the same way. Most people were simply charmed by him, others got overwhelmed with desire for him.

To have someone drop onto their knees for him so willing and ready and quickly though? Magnus’ eyes flashed golden, intrigued by the Shadowhunter’s strong reaction to him. He leaned forward and reached out with one hand, grasping the blonde’s chin to tilt his head up.

“Very flattering, little Shadowhunter,” Magnus purred pleased.

The Shadowhunter blinked dazed, as though he was only now really realizing that he had gone down onto his knees. His brows furrowed and his tongue darted out to wet his lips. Magnus’ eyes followed that motion curiously. Pretty, plush lips. The eyes though. Magnus had always had a weakness for blue eyes, but these were particularly special blue eyes. Heterochromia, blue eyes but one of them with a corner of golden-brown. Truly stunning.

3. PJO, Nico/Percy: Champion of Hades, chapter 4

Medusa smiled bemused to herself as she put down plates of pancakes. That she got to cook for someone else again already! And the two children were simply too precious. Siblings, the girl was fourteen, the boy twelve. A protective big sister and her little brother, who wanted to be bigger and stronger than he was just yet. The boy kept glancing at her, but not with fear. With something else. Something that Medusa didn’t quite know to pinpoint. He was adorable though, with the dark curls and dark eyes. Looked a lot like his father, even though the boy was probably not aware of it.

“Is there something I can do for you, Nico?” Medusa asked, when Nico stared again.

He blushed and ducked his head, fidgeting with something in his pocket. “Yes… Maybe? I don’t know. I was wondering if you… Would you sign my card?”

Pausing, Medusa regarded him curious. “I’m sorry?”

Nico got a deck of cards out of his pocket and then put one of them in front of Medusa. Some kind of playcard, with stats and attacks on it, and a truly stunning illustration… of her. She blinked.

“This is all like a lot. Like, a lot a lot,” Nico motioned. “The gods are real! The legends are real! I just… I always liked learning about them, and you’re the first real one I meet and I was wondering if you would maybe sign my card of you? Please?”

Bianca groaned in second-hand embarrassment. A small smile played on Medusa’s lips. This was too endearing. Where did this new breed of demigods come from? First her little Percy, now this precious boy. Taking a marker, Medusa signed her name on the card, making Nico smile brightly.

for rhe wip nudge game definitely raphael/simon/jace

Thanks for playing! ^-^

OKAY SO. The original thought was "hey I've never done Jimonael with Japhael as the starting ship", because usually it's Raph/Si and then I add Jace. But there would have been so many pre-series opportunities for Raph and Jace to meet and fall in love. So what if Raphael and Jace started dating pre-show and maybe had a little arrangement? Since Raph is a sex-repulsed ace but Jace very much enjoys sex and I have this headcanon that Raphael does enjoy watching, they have this arrangement with each other where they invite someone into their bedroom, but 1. They both have to agree on the person and 2. Raphael will be there to watch.

Enter Simon, cute and hot nerd who got Jace to grin like a maniac when Simon pinned him against a wall and threatened him with a knife (fucking masochist Shadowhunter). Raphael and Jace invite Simon into their bed and then they accidentally catch feelings.

Alas.

Alas this story ran away from me. Instead of opening up with the show plot, I thought it'd be nice to show Raph and Jace getting together. And then I wrote their relationship, the importance and impact of Raphael's asexuality and the way the two navigate their relationship. To the point that I thought it'd be better to split this story into two parts; how Raphael and Jace got together and the sequel, where they add Simon.

The Jimonael part I actually do not have any snippet for yet, because gotta write the first part before I can write the sequel. So have a snippet from the Japhael set-up. ;)

--

“I am... sexually frustrated, to the point of Alec getting annoyed with me because he can feel it through the bond,” admitted Jace after a moment. “I've been... masturbating a lot. A lot-a lot.”

A frown took over Raphael's face and he sighed softly. “So... while it wasn't a problem initially, my asexuality isa deal-breaker after all then? Now that we've tried this for a few weeks?”

“No!” Jace spoke quickly, maybe a bit louder than intended. “Your asexuality isn't a deal-breaker. I... I actually...” Jace blushed and turned to look away from Raphael. “I like it.”

“Mh. Interesting. Well, consider me confused now,” Raphael furrowed his brows. “What... does that mean? That you 'like' it? And how... does that relate to you being sexually frustrated then?”

Groaning softly, Jace ran his fingers through his hair and tilted his head back. “I like your asexuality because... you're not sexually attracted to me.”

Raphael sat quietly, waiting for Jace to find the right words to continue. “All my life, I've... always just been my body. For my father and the Clave, I had to be strong, the strongest possible. A good fighter. So I became the best Shadowhunter of my generation. And many of my... past conquests only wanted that too, wanted to be with the best Shadowhunter of our generation. And beyond that, I was a good lay. I've never had a romantic relationship before. I had people lust after me, I hooked up with them but it was never more than sex. They never wanted more than sex from me.”

[takaraphoenix]

oh oh oh! Simon/Raphael/Jace for the ask game?

Okay, listen, this ship was originally solely born out of Jimon and my love for OT3s. I just, my preferred method of shipping is in an OT3 and back then I wasn't much into the Jace/Maia angle and I can not make Simon work with like Alec or Magnus, these just don't fit for me.

And the fandom's surprisingly big on Raphael/Simon. I can kind of see where it comes from, Raphael is one of the characters Simon has the most interactions with and they have this enemies to lovers vibe and It's Complicated, which can always work nicely. I admit, I am still not really into just the two of them alone, I think they are a bit too much opposites, but I can very much make it work with Jace.

He works as the binding element there for me. Because he has the professional, serious side, the calculating aspect of having been in this grim world for a long time, that he shares with Raphael. He however also has too much energy and can be very dorky, just like Simon. Jace works perfectly as the... uniting middle-part of this ship? He has things in common with both of them personality-wise and, in a relationship, balances it all out.

Or at least that's the conclusion I came to after I first attempted to write them - and I got hooked on it. Because when it's all three of them, then it fits perfectly for me, and they quickly became my second favorite OT3 for this fandom.

I know many would tackle that from a different angle - I mean, as I mentioned, the Raph/Si is very popular in the fandom, so yeah. But for me, this is what makes this OT3 work.

Send me a ship and I will explain why I do or don't ship it

THE BEAUTIFUL STICKERS I BOUGHT ON @c0ffeebee​‘s SOCIETY6 STORE ARRIVED AND LOOK AT THEM. THEY'RE SO PRETTY! *^*

I got both my OT3s as stickers now and I love, love, love how Malace works out in a way that Magnus and Alec are looking at Jace if I place them like this! ^-^

ALSO MY HEADCANONS. Since about 90% of fics headcanon Jace as bi and Simon as pan, while I’m the odd one out doing it the other way around. PLUS ACE!JACE. I LIVE FOR ACE!JACE! ;///;

Plus Magnus riding a dragon, because c’mon, it’s Magnus and he is riding a dragon. Amazing.

4 for the WIP ask thing please?

Thanks for playing! <3

4: Describe the setting of your WIP.

Since you didn’t specify, I’ll... uh... do all the ones currently on my schedule? xD”

Shadowhunters, Magnus/Jace - Daddy’s Little Angel: vaguely some time during season 2, I guess. During the “Magnus and Jace live together” stint because it will forever be my favorite

PJO, Nico/Percy - The Prince of Pluto: alternate history where humans made first contact during the moon landing and developed space travel in a vastly different capacity. Takes place roughly around the now-ish but not closer specified, in a school for future space explorers, where Nico-Jason and Percy-Grover are roommates at this alien boarding school where teens with various intergalactic immigration backgrounds come together to learn

PJO, Nico/Percy - The Scent of Pomegranates: vaguely post canon in an established relationship setting for Nico and Percy

MCU, Bucky/Tony - Assembling the Avengers: roughly a couple weeks/months post the first Avengers movie, it’s a tower fic so the main physical setting will be Stark Tower as the Avengers move in and tackle things such as Thor 3, Iron Man 3 and Winter Soldier as a team, together

Shadowhunters, (Magnus/Alec, Raphael/Simon, Meliorn, Bat)/Jace - Cabinet Meetings: post-canon during the time Maia is off fixing things with her family and leaving Bat as her stand-in, at the Institute, about how Jace slowly... gathers Downworlder cabinet members as his alphas

Arrowverse, Kate/Kara - Meet the Super-Bat Family: starts at the Vanishing Point and then takes place directly after the Crisis, under the assumption that during the months at the Vanishing Point, Kate and Kara got together. Will be taking place in National City, Gotham City and wherever Eliza Danvers lives as Kate and Kara go about meeting each other’s family

PJO, Nico/Jason/Percy - Nico’s Precious Pets: alternate reality where human/animal hybrids exist and many of them find pleasure in sexual or non-sexual BDSM pet arrangements. Puppy!Jason and kitten!Percy enter such an arrangement with Nico and move into his loft

Shadowhunters, (Magnus/Alec, Raphael/Simon)/Jace - The Primal Instinct: post-canon but in an ABOverse take on the Shadow World, where Raphael owns a BDSM club for alphas and omegas to live out their fantasies and needs for dominance and submission. The club’s kind of the main setting and also the name-giver of this story, the Primal Instinct, where Jace has to go undercover to find a human trafficer and stop them

Shadowhunters, Asmodeus/Jace - Made of Gold Dust and Ash: set after Magnus made his deal with Asmodeus and Alec was foolish enough to give Asmoeus an out of Edom. Curious about the Shadowhunter for whom his son is willing to give up his magic, Asmodeus goes to see who Jace is while exploring the human world

Asexual Awareness Week Fandom Challenge 2019

Fandom: Shadowhunters Ship: Raphael Santiago/Simon Lewis/Jace Herondale Tags: ABOverse, sex positive ace Jace, sex repulsed ace Raphael Summary: The story of how Raphael helped Jace come to terms with his asexuality and then, inexplicably, ended up joining Jace and Simon’s relationship, as told in seven parts. Part: 2/7 AO3 Link Here

Jace was lazily sprawled out on the couch, only wearing Simon's sweat-pants and playing that new fantasy wizard whatever video game that Simon had bought. Admittedly, Jace had made a lot of fun of Simon about all those play-pretend games, especially the fantasy-ones. But particularly after moving in with Simon and being coerced into playing with Simon (and also with Bat, Maia and Clary every now and again), he had to admit that it was kind of fun. Pretend to be someone else. In the game, he was a cunning elf and an archer, named aLecolas, a pun he blanked on at first which had prompted Simon to make them watch Lord of the Rings over the next weekend Jace had off.

Jace stretched out when someone knocked at the door. He frowned. Sometimes, Bat would drop by with lunch when he knew Jace was home alone because Simon was in class (he actually attended college now, after all he was a Daylighter and sitting around all day was Not Good, or so Jace, Luke, Clary, Rebecca and Maia had agreed upon, holding an intervention).

"I don't need you to take care of me, Bat, I am perfectly capable of cooking for myself – and don't argue that I wouldn't, that's not the point, shut u—Raphael."

Raphael blinked a couple of times, a polite smile on his lips as he regarded Jace. "Jace."

Clearing his throat, Jace reached out for Simon's hoodie to put on. "Si's not home. He actually attends classes now, because just playing music at the Hunter's Moon will not pay the bills on the long run. So... I can tell him you dropped by?"

"I know he's not here. I came to talk to you, Jace", stated Raphael. "May I come in?"

"...Sure, but if it's official business, I am having my day off and all three, my therapist, my alpha and my parabatai, agree that I need to take those more seriously and actually take the days off. No missions, no demonic business. Just fun, sleeping in and relaxing", replied Jace.

"Isabelle asked me to talk to you. She told me about your... conversation."

"Why in the world would she do that?", asked Jace absolutely mortified. "I'm fairly sure Simon's already oversharing with Bat, Maia, Clary and you. Why would Iz come to you...?"

"Because she thinks I can... help you", offered Raphael, his voice gentle.

Jace paused at that and looked at the vampire. Admittedly, over the past few months, he had grown closer to Raphael. Raphael and Simon were working closely together leading the clan – Simon had stepped in after Heidi and before Raphael returned to New York. But not this close.

"I... don't know if I want to talk about that with you", grunted Jace doubtfully.

"That's fair", agreed Raphael and sat down on the couch. "The thing is, I think I may know what you are struggling with. Isabelle said it troubles you a lot and... I could help you."

Jace bit his lower lip and sat down on the table, right in front of Raphael. "I just... don't know. Simon's always very... focused on the physical, during sex. Not that he's only with me for my body, I know that. But especially during sex, he keeps listing all the things about me he is... attracted to and, uh, what they make him want to do."

"And what did that make you feel?", asked Raphael gently.

"Confused?", offered Jace after a moment. "I mean, Simon is good looking too. But... the way he talks about it is... different. And it's not just him. I don't know, sure I pick people I find good looking when I went out for a hook-up, but I've never just... been drawn in by how they look and felt like... their physical appearance was what made me want to have sex with them...?"

"Then what did?", inquired Raphael, sounding genuinely curious.

"That they wanted", shrugged Jace thoughtfully. "Yes, I didn't just sleep with everyone who approached me, but the deciding factor in the end was that they wanted me. But I've never... just... looked at someone and felt this overwhelming... need...? ...to have sex with them, with them specifically. But the things Simon says, it... sounds so different from my own experience, you know? I just, I never really thought of that. I figured that people had the same motivation for sex as I do, but ever since I started dating Simon, I feel like... his motivation for sleeping with me is different from... my motivation to sleep with him..."

"What, exactly, is your motivation to sleep with Simon?"

"Sex is...", started Jace before he paused and side-eyed the unmated alpha who was not his mate with whom he was talking about his sex life. "It's a stress-relief. It's a way to be close to someone. I love Simon, I love being close to him, having him in... inside of me. I've been seeking one-night-stands for that kind of relief before, but now that I have Simon, who is like... horny all the time, at least always when I'm shirtless or... bent over or, you know, whatever."

"That's because Simon is sexually attracted to you", supplied Raphael, voice gentle. "I think that you're asexual, Jace."

"What... That's stupid, Raphael. I love Simon. I'm pansexual, not asexual. And besides, I also have plenty of sex. Like, seriously, we did it three times last night alone. So... that's just not it."

"See, that's two misconceptions, Jace." Raphael sighed softly and leaned forward a little. "Your sexual orientation and your romantic orientation are not inherently linked. You can be in love and still be asexual. I'm asexual, but I still... I was falling for Isabelle before things ended with her. Not feeling romantic love is something different, that's called being aromantic."

"Weird, but okay. Still. I have sex. A lot of it. And I enjoy sex."

"Yes", nodded Raphael patiently. "Being asexual also doesn't mean that you have to hate sex. You can. I... am sex-repulsed – that's what you'd call it. I don't enjoy sex, the thought of doing such things with someone else is quite frankly rather disgusting to me. But there are sex-positive asexuals too. People who enjoy sex for a variety of reasons, such as the ones you named. The thing sex-positive and sex-repulsed aces have in common is that we don't feel sexual attraction."

"That word again", grunted Jace confused.

"That confusion is why I think you may be asexual. Sexual attraction is a confusing thing to understand, because many think it just means finding people good-looking. Being asexual doesn't mean you're blind. I look at Isabelle and I see how breathtaking she is. I look at you and I know how gorgeous you are", offered Raphael slowly. "But... I look at you differently than Simon looks at you. Personally, I look at people like... I look at pieces of art. I appreciate the beauty in people, like I appreciate the beauty in nature. Simon, he looks at you with lust and desire, he sees you and it flares a hunger for you, to have sex with you, specifically, because you arouse him. Very specifically you, because he's attracted to you."

Jace furrowed his brows and pulled his legs up. "Why are you telling me that?"

"Because it took me decades to realize that I'm... different and that being different doesn't make me broken. And it took me decades longer before there was a word for it, before I realized that I wasn't just different, but that I was also not the only one", supplied Raphael gently. "I spent so long not understanding what made me different and feeling alone in that. You and I may not be close friends, but... I think you may be asexual and I want you to know that you're not alone."

Jace's eyes softened as he looked at Raphael at that. "...Okay."

"I'm not telling you that you are, for a fact, asexual", tagged Raphael on carefully. "I just wanted to let you know that this is an option. You... said you're pansexual. That must have been a process too for you. Coming to terms with that, learning there is a word for how you feel. I simply want you to consider what I told you. And if you have questions or want to talk more... I'm here for you."

Jace blinked a couple of times and just stared up at the alpha. They had held pleasant conversation when meeting at Downworlder cabinet meetings, but never anything this personal. He had never seen this warm, considerate side of Raphael, but hearing him talk like this, Jace started to understand what Isabelle had seen in the vampire. She had always insisted it was more than the venom. Tilting his head, Jace watched Raphael go, leaving Jace with a lot to consider.

Asexual Awareness Week Fandom Challenge 2019

Fandom: Shadowhunters Ship: Raphael Santiago/Simon Lewis/Jace Herondale Tags: ABOverse, sex positive ace Jace, sex repulsed ace Raphael Summary: The story of how Raphael helped Jace come to terms with his asexuality and then, inexplicably, ended up joining Jace and Simon’s relationship, as told in seven parts. Part: 7/7 AO3 Link Here

"...And the princess saved the prince and they rode off into the sunset to live happily ever after."

Raphael carefully closed the book, aware that his audience had fallen asleep approximately five pages ago, but he also knew that the twins were very keen listeners. If Raphael stopped, they'd stir and complain and would be more awake than before, which was peculiar.

"You want me to take those off you?", offered Simon softly from the doorway.

He had been standing there for about ten pages now, arms crossed, fond look on his face and listening to Raphael reading the bedtime story. They usually alternated it, though it also depended on which one of them was at home. Occasionally, the Institute kept Jace out at evening or night, while Simon had his gigs and both Raphael and Simon had the clan-business to take care of too.

"How was your gig?", whispered Raphael as Simon took one of the twins.

"Good. I missed you and Jace. I know, I know, someone has to watch the kids... and the Institute doesn't run itself, but still", sighed Simon, kissing Rosa's head.

Rosa and Liliana Herondale. Their twins. Their beautiful, precious daughters. Liliana had the same golden-blonde hair as Jace, while Rosa had dark brown hair. Both were wearing their hair in pigtails. Sometimes, Raphael would simply sit at their bedside and marvel at them.

"Aren't they perfect?", whispered Raphael in awe as he adjusted Liliana on his arm.

Simon's face softened as he nodded. "They absolutely are. Our omega did great, mh?"

Jace had made this perfect little humans. Raphael? He had long since given up on having children of his own. Not just because of his asexuality, more so because of the vampirism. That was a thing that had hit Simon hard when he realized it, realized that as a vampire he couldn't have children of his own. He had always wanted a family with kids. Simon had only realized it when Jace had brought the issue up, four years ago. Both his vampire-boyfriends had been very subdued at that.

And it had hit Raphael as kind of ironic. After so many years, he had two lovers now, an alpha and an omega at that and both very sexually active with each other, thanks to Jace finding his own enjoyment in sex despite his asexuality. Yet their third was a vampire just like Raphael, which meant that regardless of how much sex Jace and Simon had with each other, the two would never produce any own children. The irony of that was truly biting.

They were all on the same page though. They all did want children. Raphael had considered it before, adoption. Just as Magnus had adopted him. But he hadn't trusted himself to do this all on his own, so he had never quite pulled through with it. And Simon, he had always dreamed of having kids running around, plural because as annoyed as he acted by his sister, he couldn't imagine growing up without her. Raphael had to share that sentiment. He missed Rosa so much.

Their brilliant, clever little omega however had known the perfect solution. Bartholomew Velasquez, the second in command of the wolf-pack, had after being asked volunteered to be their sperm-donor. Jace wanted children and he wanted to be pregnant, to experience that himself. He had wanted to carry his child, be what his own mother hadn't gotten to be with him.

It took some, but then Jace was pregnant. With twins, at that. Liliana and Rosa Herondale, the absolute pride and joy of Imogen Herondale, who could not love her great-granddaughters more. She had, surprisingly enough, also taken it rather well that her grandson was dating not just one but two vampires. They were strong, powerful and influential alphas, so maybe that played into it.

"You going to bring them to kindergarten tomorrow?", asked Simon. "Or should I?"

"I can do it. You take the early meeting for us then", nodded Raphael.

The greatest surprise that being mates with Jace Herondale had brought. When sealing the mate-bond and giving Jace the mate-bite, he drank from the blonde and it turned out that the golden-haired angel had very special blood. The blood that had turned Simon into a Daylighter a year before. Raphael had spent weeks just dazed, sitting in the sun and enjoying its warmth. Now that they had children, he was even more grateful for being a Daylighter, because he got to bring them to kindergarten, pick them up, play with them in the park.

"Jace is running late", noted Raphael with mild concern as they tucked the twins in.

"I'm not worried. You know since we had confirmation that it worked and he's pregnant again, he's not gone onto a single actual mission. He's being a good head of the Institute, doing desk-duty only", offered Simon with a shrug. "Maybe Alec is keeping him. You know the parabatai can get lost in each other when they hadn't gotten to spend time together in a while. Or Iz decided it's time for another check-up – you know how overly protective she is of her niece or nephew."

Raphael sighed and nodded before kissing Simon. "You're right. I just... worry."

Simon smiled at him and linked fingers with him. Together, the two made their way to their own bedroom and got changed and ready for bed. When they had sealed the mate-bond, Simon and Jace had moved into the penthouse with Raphael. For the first time, this place felt like an actual home, with Simon, Jace and the twins in it. The two vampires snuggled up to each other, Simon on his phone and Raphael taking the latest book he was reading. They always waited for their third to come home. Falling asleep with not all three of them in bed was simply not working. Even less so for the two alphas now that their omega was with child again.

"He—ey, I'm tired. I hate meetings. Meetings are stupid. I hate desk-jobs. Desk-jobs are stupid."

Raphael and Simon exchanged a fond smile as Jace came stumbling into the bedroom, collapsing face-first onto the bed right between his alphas. They adjusted to make room for him, putting the book and phone down to instead hug Jace. The omega made a soft, content purring noise.

"We agreed on this, for while you're pregnant. It was your idea, angel", noted Simon.

"I kno—ow. Doesn't make it less boring though", huffed Jace as he rolled onto his back.

Him and Alec were co-heads of the Institute, the parabatai ran it well together, but normally Jace was the more hands-on leader. He just couldn't without missions. Simon gently ran his fingers through Jace's hair, while Raphael rested a tentative hand on Jace's stomach.

"How are you two?", asked Raphael, smiling a little.

"Me? I'm great. Hating paperwork more and more with every day, but I'm great. And Helen and Izzy say that the baby is perfectly healthy too", offered Jace. "...They both insisted on a check-up. We're avoiding Catarina this week, fyi. I can't do three check-ups in one week."

"Duly noted", chuckled Raphael amused.

"How are my princesses?", asked Jace, peeking up at them. "I mean, they're asleep. I checked on them before I came to you two, obviously, but..."

"They were very well-behaved and enjoyed their day with abuelo Magnus", smirked Raphael.

"You're really determined to make them call him that", laughed Simon. "He is so pouty."

"Well, he should have considered that when he adopted me", argued Raphael casually. "My children will call him abuelo, there is no way around it, period."

Jace smiled pleased at that and nuzzled into Raphael's chest. Simon wrapped his arms around Jace from behind, spooning him and kissing his neck softly. These moments were what Raphael loved the most, when it was simply them, together, gentle and soft and calm.

"Imogen is going to come over tomorrow", yawned Jace. "She happens to be in New York, which I am totally not buying, she just wants to spoil her great-granddaughters some more."

"Mh, I'm always happy to cook for her, she really appreciates it", smiled Raphael.

"She really does. She also thinks you're the greatest gentleman ever, perfect grandson-in-law."

"And what am I? Chopped liver?", huffed Simon offended.

"I mean, you're no Raph", teased Jace and turned enough to Simon. "But you're not bad yourself."

Raphael smiled at that, looking at the two men he loved, his family, feeling overcome with warmth.

Writer’s Month Day 22: Summer

Fandom: Shadowhunters

Pairing: Raphael/Simon/Jace

Raphael's favorite time of the year, now that he was a Daylighter, was summer.

---

Ever since Simon Lewis had become a Daylighter, Raphael had tried to figure out what made him such. In his efforts, he had accidentally started dating Simon and suddenly, the secret was not on the forefront of his mind anymore. He respected that his mate kept someone else's secret. He saw the bond between Simon and Jace, knew of Simon's crush on Jace and then the war ended and things changed. Jace came to rely heavily on Simon, with Clary memory-wiped and living a happy mundie life now, Alec and Magnus moving to Idris. The two bonded more, became best friends even.

Jace spent a lot of time at Hotel Dumort and all of it in Raphael and Simon's apartment. With that, even Raphael started bonding with Jace, discovering a similar taste in literature. Over the months, Jace even became more than just a friend, nearly naturally he became part of their relationship. And then they shared their big secret with Raphael; that it had been Jace's blood that had turned Simon into a Daylighter. And then – then Jace shared that gift with Raphael.

"Look at him smiling in the sun", grinned Jace teasingly.

Him and Simon came back from their swim to lay next to Raphael on the blanket. They had gone on a vacation, a much needed and deserved vacation after everything they had been through in the past year. Raphael was laying sprawled out on the sandy beach, soaking in the warmth of the summer sun, while Simon and Jace had left to play water-ball with some of the people they had already befriended. Simon was just too social a creature, of course had he made some friends within days. Mostly, Raphael and Jace just let him have his fun there while the two sunned and read, but sometimes one or both of them let themselves rope into whatever Simon wanted to do.

"Aw, don't tease him, angel", chuckled Simon. "It's been... a while... since he had the sun."

"And now I finally have the sun back", whispered Raphael in awe, holding his hand above his face to feel the heat on his skin. "And I can even hold my own personal sun, mi solecito."

He reached out and wrapped one arm around Jace's waist to pull him close against himself so he could kiss his cheek. Simon smiled fondly as he laid down on Raphael's other side. Both Jace and Simon rested their heads on Raphael's shoulders and got more comfortable.

"I missed a real, proper summer vacation", groaned Simon pleased. "Heh who'd have thought my first summer vacation after graduation would be spent with my two handsome boyfriends...?"

The grin he offered Raphael and Jace was face-splitting. It made Raphael smile warmly at his lover. Truly, they had given him more than he ever expected. Not just love, but also the sun.

Asexual Awareness Week Fandom Challenge 2019

Fandom: Shadowhunters Ship: Raphael Santiago/Simon Lewis/Jace Herondale Tags: ABOverse, sex positive ace Jace, sex repulsed ace Raphael Summary: The story of how Raphael helped Jace come to terms with his asexuality and then, inexplicably, ended up joining Jace and Simon’s relationship, as told in seven parts. Part: 3/7 AO3 Link Here

Jace had tried to shake Raphael's words off. It was stupid. Just to prove how stupid, he had spent all evening and the better half of the night having sex with his alpha after Simon got home. The vampire had been very happy and excited about the enthusiasm, though expressed some surprise.

Still, it... didn't fulfill its purpose. Jace didn't feel like he had somehow magically defied Raphael's words. Because when he was laying here now, staring over at Simon, naked and sweaty and fully sated. Simon was smiling at him, tilting his head a little and staring back at him.

"Hey there, angel. What brought this on?", asked Simon softly.

He scooted closer to Jace, eyes dark as he started kissing up Jace's chest. Was that it? The thing Raphael had talked about? Simon looked at Jace, naked, sweaty and sprawled out and that got him horny all over again? Because Simon was... attracted to him, sexually? Sounded weird.

"You... really... look at me and want to have sex? Just because of me?", asked Jace tentatively.

"I... yes? What?" Simon looked utterly confused as he tilted his head up.

"Forget it", grunted Jace and rolled them over so he had his alpha pinned.

Simon was quick to forget when he had his naked omega on top of him like that. Jace however was still trying to wrap his head around this whole 'sexual attraction' thing. For him, the urge came first. He felt restless, had extra adrenaline, wanted the physical contact and comfort, then he sought out his partner. Simon was great, because usually a smirk from Jace was enough to have him horny and eager. Jace just... couldn't really understand that, apparently, for other people, seeing someone was already enough to get them in the mood? That just seemed incredibly unreal.

/break\

The internet was a glorious mundie invention. Sure, in a way, Shadowhunters had that too – but without the fun parts. It was all strictly for business. Demon databases, communication between the Institutes. Jace took some time off specifically while Simon was off at class so he could do a bit of a deep dive. Sure, Raphael had offered more words, but those were Raphael's words and those had started this craze. Jace needed some... non-Raphael input. Not that he didn't trust Raphael – surprisingly enough, he actually did trust him. But he still needed more.

He read so many contradicting things on the internet. Things that were then debunked by other sources. Then there was all that hate of people who thought it wasn't enough to be counted into that gay community Simon kept always talking about (Jace and Isabelle had let themselves be convinced to go on a Pride parade with Simon, the next time there was one). There was just so much and from so many different angles, so he kept diving deeper and deeper, reading all he could get his hands on.

In the end, he had to admit that most of the things seemed to confirm what Raphael said, or say the same just with different words. Jace read so many experiences of other asexuals and how they had come to realize, how they had lived prior to it. There really was such a broad variety.

Some people who didn't do sex at all, not even masturbating, some who enjoyed that because orgasms were fun, some who did actually enjoy having sex with others but not for the same reasons as so-called allosexuals – people who... did experience sexual attraction to others.

Jace was trying to deny it, but all the denial in the world didn't erase this feeling. He recognized himself in some of the stuff he had read, the ones from sex-positive aces in particular. It was like something slipped into place, there was a word for something that had been just a part of himself even without him knowing that this wasn't the norm, that other people felt different.

He... thought that he may actually be asexual. It explained so much about the things that confused him, not just about Simon but even before him, talking to others. So much made sense now.

Asexual Awareness Week Fandom Challenge 2019

Fandom: Shadowhunters Ship: Raphael Santiago/Simon Lewis/Jace Herondale Tags: ABOverse, sex positive ace Jace, sex repulsed ace Raphael Summary: The story of how Raphael helped Jace come to terms with his asexuality and then, inexplicably, ended up joining Jace and Simon’s relationship, as told in seven parts. Part: 6/7 AO3 Link Here

Simon was the first to figure it out. It wasn't that hard to figure out, really. And it wasn't really a surprise that he figured it out first. Both Raphael and Jace were emotionally constipated in their own ways, while Simon was rather in tune with his own emotions.

What gave it away was Jace's last heat. He had gone and sought out Raphael. The last thing a mated omega did during heat was seek out an unmated alpha. Still, when Jace felt restless and vulnerable and Simon hadn't been there to comfort his boyfriend, Jace had gone and sought out Raphael, trusted Raphael. He had trusted Raphael even before that, it had been building up for a while.

It had been building up even longer for Simon. Simon had been an absolute bisexual mess when Clary had introduced him to the Shadow World. How was just everyone in the Shadow World so insanely attractive? Literally everyone! There had been so many crushes. Some that faded quickly, others that turned to friendship and... two that had gradually turned to love.

"You are tense and nervous. What's going on?"

Simon blinked and looked up when Raphael rested a hand in his neck. It was grounding. Simon smiled and shook his head. The two of them had just finished a clan meeting. Everyone was slowly filing out and the last remaining were Simon and Raphael.

"I like leading with you", offered Simon after a moment. "We're a good team. We share well."

"We... do", agreed Raphael, raising one curious eyebrow.

"I... know you and me have never talked about this. You only talk to Jace about it, because that's uh... the thing you have in common... I..."

"Rambling, Simon. To the point", prompted Raphael, looking more fond than exasperated.

"How does your asexuality work?", blurted Simon out before he looked mortified. "That is not how I wanted to put that, I swear. I just mean, are you... aroace, or just ace-ace?"

"...Where does the sudden interest stem from?", inquired Raphael instead of answering.

"I just... I feel like I'm getting vibes but I want to make sure I'm not reading them entirely wrong, so I wanted to know if relationships, romantic relationships, are something that you... want. And if you would be okay dating an allosexual. And a sex-positive ace. Like, if you would be okay with dating someone who does have sex, namely a lot of sex, or if that makes you uncomfortable."

"I feel like this is your long-winding way of asking me to join your relationship."

"...Yes", nodded Simon with an embarrassed flush. "I just want to..."

"Make sure", interrupted Raphael with the fondest smile. "Because you always want to make sure that everyone is alright. I admittedly have never been in a polyamorous arrangement with two lovers who did have sex, but I wouldn't mind, as long as you won't try to make me a part of that."

"No! Of course not! I totally respect your asexuality!", exclaimed Simon. "So... you... wouldn't mind joining our relationship? I mean, not just vaguely a poly relationship with two very sexually active partners, but very specifically my and Jace's relationship."

"...No, I wouldn't mind", whispered Raphael gently.

"Oh. Okay. Cool. Cool, cool, cool."

"Mh... my boyfriend looks awkward and fidgety. What did I miss?"

Both vampires turned to look at Jace, who slipped into the penthouse. He smiled as he headed toward them and Raphael felt oddly pleased upon seeing Jace in his penthouse. Jace kissed Simon on the cheek before hugging Raphael. Jace smelt calm and soothing.

"Your boyfriend just asked me to join your relationship", offered Raphael.

The omega in his arms stared at him with raised eyebrows and flushed cheeks. "He... what?"

Jace turned to glare at Simon pointedly, who just shrugged. "Uh, I was just... testing the waters? I thought I was being subtle. Guess I was not very successful."

"So, how's the water then, Si?", grunted Jace pointedly.

"The water is very good", offered Raphael, daringly resting a hand on Jace's lower back.

"Oh", whispered Jace, cheeks heating up even more. "Okay."

"What does okay mean?", inquired Raphael, cocking one eyebrow.

Jace shrugged and tilted his head. He reached out to take Simon's hand and pulled him closer, close enough so Raphael could also wrap an arm around Simon. The three stood so close and it felt so right. Smiling, Jace leaned up enough to kiss Raphael very gently.

"That's what okay means", whispered Jace. "If... you want that too, that is."

"I... can't tell you how much I want that", replied Raphael honestly.

"Wait. Really?", asked Simon and perked up.

"You're surprisingly endearing", noted Raphael before smiling. "And... I have grown very... attached to Jace too, over the past weeks..."

"Cool. Cool, cool, cool. So I can like... also get a kiss?", asked Simon carefully.

Raphael chuckled and leaned in to kiss Simon too. It was a short and gentle kiss and Simon looked very pleased afterward, before he hugged both Raphael and Jace close.

"You were the one who like... came up with this, why are you acting so surprised by the outcome?", asked Jace amused, nudging Simon. "You said this was like 'totally sure'."

"I mean there is always... the possibility of me reading it wrong and I didn't really know just how much Raph would, uh... you know, want", shrugged Simon and wiggled his nose.

"I want everything out of this relationship, aside from the sex", offered Raphael casually. "That one, I will leave to the two of you. And, worry not, it's not going to make me feel excluded. I very much prefer being excluded from that. But I do want the two of you to get... everything you want, with each other. I do know... a few past relationships have failed because I couldn't give them what they wanted in the bedroom. I'm... glad the two of you can give each other what you desire there."

Simon grinned at them before he started laughing loudly, startling the other two. "Sorry, I just... I just realized that I like... I got two aces up my sleeve now, right?"

He had the biggest shit-eating grin on his face as he rested one arm around Raphael's neck and the other around Jace's. Jace and Raphael exchanged a very pointed look and rolled their eyes.

"Yeah, get used to that one", grunted Jace. "You know how many kitchen-ware jokes I had to endure after I came to the conclusion I'm pan? And the bi-jokes he makes! Sometimes, when I'm on a mission, he texts me 'waiting for you, all bi myself'... that's b-i, not b-y..."

"Ah. Why am I not surprised?", asked Raphael, shaking his head.

"You're both awful and don't appreciate my genius puns", grumbled Simon. "Luke always laughs."

"Straights do that", nodded Jace. "Because they haven't heard them a billion times. I've dated you long enough to have heard them all at this point."

"And I am decades older than you, believe me I have heard it all", added Raphael.

"So... are we just... going to... stand here?", asked Simon after a beat, looking around.

"My, my. Hasn't even asked me out yet and is already looking to get into my bed."

Raphael smiled amused, even more so at Simon's flustered stuttering and reassuring that he didn't mean it like that and absolutely respected Raphael's asexuality. Truly endearing. Raphael, still with his arms around his... boyfriends, now, apparently, Raphael led them toward the bed.

"I wouldn't mind having my den smell more like you", offered Raphael softly.

"Heh. After Si and I got together, he said something similar. Just more... dorky. He asked me if I'd mind rolling around in his bed, he swore he'd stay out, he just wanted my scent", snorted Jace.

"That sounds very Simon of him", agreed Raphael as he sat down on the edge of the bed.

The look on his face softened as Jace and Simon joined him on the bed. The three of them curled together comfortably, lazily. Simply laying together, bathing in each other's scent and company, gentle touches linking them together.

Can we get some protective Raphael, Simon, Alec & Magnus headconons for Primal Instinct maybe please?

I mean, as of right now protective!Alec is worried!Alec. Because he doesn’t want to seem like he doesn’t trust Jace with this mission. He’s the head of the Institute now, he’s not at his parabatai’s side during the mission, so he fears that if he goes too protective Jace may think he’s doubting Jace’s abilities.

Raphael is going to be the first one you’ll get to see in full-blown protective mode, actually! It’s going to be very growly, snarly and slightly feral in a way Jace should not find as hot as he does. ;D

In Magnus’ case, protectiveness is expressed with a side of possessiveness. So when something happens in the club that has him worried about Jace, he will just drape himself over the omega, or pull Jace onto his lap and wrap his arms around him, while glaring over Jace’s shoulder in a “fuck off, taken” kind of way.

In general, I find headcanons without the proper setting hard to do though. There is definitely going to be protectiveness and worry from all four of them in the later stages of the story, but how exactly that’s going to manifest is going to be very dependable on the individual situation, so I’m afraid this is all I have for you now. ;)
