"softly spoken magic spells" by mia_zeklos | parabatai | "Jocelyn had mentioned how ancient the tracking method’s supposed to be – old enough to be less precise than anything they use today, but it still doesn’t prepare him for how violent it is; how quickly it pulls him under before he gets the chance to stop it." | ~2.000 words

Ha! I haven't been here for a whole week! No, I didn't suddenly cease to exist, I'm just over on Tumblr full time now, reblogging Shadowhunters stuff or writing short ficlets - I've written 116 of them already, over 47.000 words total! I have never felt so inspired... ♥_♥

Shadowhunters was renewed for S2! We did it! We got a renewal! More Alec and Malec and Jalec and Lightwood family feels and whatnot! \o/

And a fic rec:
