I have been so bad at doing tag games, so apologies to anyone who tagged me over the last couple of weeks. I suck! But I’m back!
Thanks for not giving up on me and continuing to tag me @creepkinginc @energievie @stocious @depressedstressedlemonzest <3
Name: Michelle
First fandom you became a part of: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
(Oh boy! @katherynefromphilly’s answers reminded me that I was in a Robbie Williams fan club!! Even once travelled to Germany for a big fan club meet up!! Hahahahaha wow. Memory unlocked! 🤯)
What was the first TV show fandom you joined: BtVS
How old were you: 12 when I started watching the show. Found online forums and fandom at about… 15? 16? Around season 3 going into 4.
Latest TV/Movie fandom you became a part of? Shameless
A tv/movie fandom you haven’t joined but like to creep on? Erm… I think the Glee fandom was the only one where I watched every episode of the show, watched interviews of the cast, attended Darren Cross’ Elsie Fest in New York, read fic… and just wanted nothing to do with the fandom like AT ALL. hahaha. But mostly I’m a ‘dive in head first’ kind of person!
Your favourite fandom: BBC Merlin. there was just something absolutely magical about it. And still is. Fucking Once and Future Fandom, man. The gift that keeps on giving…
The tv show that gives you the most brainrot? Shameless, because again with the ‘dive in head first’. Like, I truly believe you never fully leave any fandom you’ve been in. But the one you’re currently in just takes over your world for a while. And that’s amazing.
The fictional couple that gives you the most brainrot? Ian and Mickey from Shameless. Arthur and Merlin from BBC Merlin.
Guilty pleasure fictional couple? Er. I just don’t really believe in guilty pleasures. Shit that brings you joy should be celebrated, not felt bad over. Go forth and find your happiness.
Guilty pleasure TV show? Again. Nah. Love what you love.
And finally something that made you happy this week? I’m just finishing Heartstopper Season 2 and watching Kit Connor and how much he’s grown as an actor has been an absolute delight this week. I keep stopping scenes and going back to rewatch because he’s just there, making interesting choices, and pulling them off, and it’s wonderful to see! Go Kit!
That was fun! I’d like to tag @faejilly @rutherinahobbit @deedala @too-schoolforcool @harrowhark-a-vagrant @heymrspatel @palepinkgoat @lynne-monstr @katherynefromphilly @juliakayyy @darknutmeg @mikhailoisbaby @malec-crazed-author @vintagelacerosette @crossmydna @mishervellous @rereadanon

He noticed Lorenzo's gaze land on something else behind him and frowned when Lorenzo stepped into his house without a proper invitation, with his shoes on, and made a beeline for Izzy to shake her hand.
"The resemblance is startling! You must be Mr Lightwood's sister," Lorenzo said with a wide smile. "Now that you've taken a look around, could I tempt you to buy a house in this estate as well? You'd be so close to your brother, and that's always wonderful, isn't it?"
"I'm not really looking for my own place, and not so far from New York City. It's inconvenient for my work," Izzy replied with a smile that didn't look forced at all, which was her particular talent.

WIP challenge
My sister @a-study-in-dante tagged me back in September but I was too busy reorganising my blog and deleting a thousand posts to actually do this asdfghjhgf I’m sorry!
Rules: share the last paragraph you wrote and tag three people @dani-dabbles @darknutmeg and @/everyone who wants to share! Don’t feel forced to do so though!
(Vague context: this is set in Alec’s early teenage years, when he’s been taken by the enemy.)
The voice was right. They had tampered with his Runes, he was pretty sure they'd deactivated them somehow: they were still there, he could see them all over his naked chest, but he couldn’t feel them. No tracker. He hadn’t even had the time to go through the Parabatai ceremony with Jace, they hadn’t bonded their souls yet so how... how was he going to perform the well-known but dangerous Parabatai tracking? How would he find him? Jace couldn’t, he wouldn’t know how to, where to look for him inside his mind, and Alec... Alec was on his own.

Shadowhunters Fandom Story - Part One
Submitted by @darknutmeg
Five Favourite Stories
Bright Lights, Small Town by @lecrit
WHY I LOVE THIS FIC: There are too many reasons to list here without this turning into a 1K essay, so I will break it down into three things. 1) This is my absolute favourite characterization of Magnus in any fic I have ever read. His constant struggles to find a place where he truly belongs with someone he loves and a family to call his own. Found family, especially when it involves Magnus, owns my heart. 2) Its an honest and real look at grief, specifically the scene where burns his Mother’s paintings. Who hasn’t felt this way when dealing the loss of the loved one; wanting physical memories of them gone from your sight, thrown away or in this case destroyed. Luckily Magnus was saved by a pair of strong arms. A scene which really set the tone for their relationship. 3) The airport scene, straight from a rom-com and absolutely breathtaking.
FAVORITE QUOTE(S): “I thought it was pretty obvious, but maybe it isn't to you,” Alec murmured, reaching out to wipe away a stray tear with his free hand. “You're so full of doubt, so used to holding these walls around your heart that I realized maybe you doubted that too. So, well… I'm telling you not to. You can doubt many things but don't doubt this: I love you.”
*
All The Right Words by @ninwrites
WHY I LOVE THIS FIC: There are few fics in the fandom featuring deaf characters, it can be difficult to portray correctly and this story does an absolutely exquisite job. As someone who is fluent in sign language and has a deaf family member, I truly, truly appreciate this type of representation in any form of media, especially when it is handled so beautifully. Alec is adorable and sweet and so so in love, it takes my breath away. Magnus learning to communicate for Alec’s sake and choosing to learn a most important expression is a moment which will stay with me forever.
FAVORITE QUOTE: “The charm is said to bring luck and protection.” Isabelle finishes, quietly. “Alec hoped you’d accept it - he told me that he doubts you need protection, that he knows you can look after yourself perfectly well, but he … he hopes that this can help you.” From the corner of his eye, Magnus sees Isabelle’s jaw pulse slightly. “Because he can’t.”
*
All The Things I’d Say But Couldn’t by kaythenorthface
WHY I LOVE THIS FIC: There are plenty of alternate, early season one Malec getting together stories out there, each one with a unique take. This one however has a special touch. A parallel to an early moment in their pre-relationship: The memory demon. Having Alec reveal his long hidden feelings to Magnus through his memories, when the prior time it had forced him to face his issues. The force of Magnus’ “How long?” hits hard. I felt that. Alec kept his feelings from Magnus for years and hurt both of them in the process. Which makes the emotional confession at the end that much more beautiful, it’s ‘I’m sorry it took me so long.’
FAVOURITE QUOTE(S): “Alexander,” Magnus says, looking very much like he wants to roll his eyes at Alec. “I told you a long time ago that I’d gone 50 years without wanting anyone before I met you. You were the first person I ever fell in love with without trying to. That isn’t something that just goes away. There’s always been a part of me waiting, hoping for you to change your mind.”
*
My True Love Gave to Me by @imawriteriwrite
WHY I LOVE THIS FIC: This fic is my comfort fic; it’s like a warm hug. You get to watch them have more than one first kiss, share a few adorable dates and go along with Magnus as he slowly figures out to break the ‘curse’ while realizing his own feelings. It’s like Groundhog Day at Christmas but filled with love. Also, Magnus showing up to confess to Alec while dressed in pajamas is so on point.
FAVORITE QUOTE(S): “Alexander,” Magnus says, looking very much like he wants to roll his eyes at Alec. “I told you a long time ago that I’d gone 50 years without wanting anyone before I met you. You were the first person I ever fell in love with without trying to. That isn’t something that just goes away. There’s always been a part of me waiting, hoping for you to change your mind.”
*
Reconstruction by bumblebeesknees
WHY I LOVE THIS FIC: Healthy communication between Magnus and Alec is something we often preach about and while the show did a decent job with it, they could have done so much more. Like with their reunion after the first ‘break up.’. This fic fills in all those gaps absolutely beautifully. Alec’s vulnerability about potentially screwing up and forcing Magnus to leave him, the broken trust they still need to rebuild and the love, there’s so much love here. Present scenes are built around past ones seamlessly so you see how they slowly find their way back to each other. And the bracelet. Don’t even get me started on that. It’s the omamori charm of Shadowhunters fic.
FAVORITE QUOTE(S): “I love you,” says Magnus and even though Alec’s not consciously thinking about it, some part of him must realize that the necessary thing to do is pull away. But Magnus is still holding onto Alec’s hands, the beads of the bracelet is digging into Alec’s skin and Alec – Alec doesn’t understand. He doesn’t understand why Magnus refuses to let go, refuses to break away from Alec’s gaze when Alec can’t because he’s frozen in place.
“I love you,” says Magnus a third time, as though maybe this time around it’ll make sense to Alec. It doesn’t. “I shouldn’t have waited this long to say it. I just – I didn’t know how.”
Author Story
Shadowhunters made me dig out my fanfic writer’s hat for the first time in over a decade and it’s telling that the very first thing I wrote was a wedding fic because Malec was my inspiration. Malec made me come of out of hiding and I’m forever grateful for it. Playing with those two boys in various situations has been an absolute delight, Magnus’ character has so much depth and Alec is so stalwart and loyal. They are so many ways to make them fall in love over and over again.
The talent of the writers in this fandom is exquisite, inspiring and something to be admired. I am grateful to be here amongst you and even though I suck at updating and I’m extremely unorganized, I’m glad to have a place to share my little words and I’m thankful for the audience I have gained.

wip word search
Thank you to @dragongirlg-fics for the tag!
My words were:
spin | afford | calculate | linger | change
I only managed to find two of the words in my WIPs though lol
-
afford
The good stuff if you can afford it, the stuff that doesn't give you weird glitches; the bootleg versions if you're desperate enough.
— from a Malec cyberpunk AU that I plan to start posting some time this year (?!)
-
linger
There was also a distinct stink of sweat lingering in the air that no amount of disinfectant or air-freshener would be able to mask, although that was to be expected in a gym.
— from a fluffy Malec WIP fic where Alec owns an MMA gym, possibly also posting this year
-
Tagging: @sfjessii @darknutmeg @lynne-monstr @poemsfromthealley @faejilly + whoever else wants to play! Here are some words:
swear | screen | splash | six | sin
