Well, it could be that Magus uses some form of magic or power to control Alec's actions for his own purposes, like making Alec do things against his will to achieve a certain goal in a fictional world.
Alec is likely a character in the fanfic, perhaps someone who is vulnerable to manipulation. Magus is the one who does the manipulating. Without more context from the fanfic, it's hard to say more about their specific identities or backstories.
Yes, there might be. Fanfics are widely spread across various fanfic platforms. You can try searching on popular ones like Archive of Our Own or FanFiction.net.
In the 'Alec gets manipulated by Magus' fanfic, Magus could use his charm to manipulate Alec. He might be very smooth - talking and convince Alec to do things that are not in Alec's best interest. Magus could also create situations where Alec feels indebted to him. For example, Magus could 'save' Alec from a made - up danger and then use that as leverage to get Alec to do his bidding. Additionally, Magus may manipulate the information Alec has access to. By controlling what Alec knows, he can control how Alec thinks and acts.
One common way could be through using his magic in a subtle way. For example, he might use magic to create situations where Alec has no choice but to follow his lead. Maybe he makes it seem like the only option for Alec to protect his friends or family is to do what Magnus wants.
It's also possible that the real antagonist is Alec's own insecurities. Magnus might be using Alec's insecurities to manipulate him. So in a way, Alec's internal struggles could be seen as the antagonist. But again, from the title's perspective, Magnus is the one directly involved in the act of manipulation.
In the fanfic, it might be a fight that's more about pride and proving who is the better Shadowhunter. Alec has his own set of skills and Jace has his. They might get into an argument about who is more useful in a certain situation, and it turns into a full - blown fight. Alec might use his strategic mind and archery skills, while Jace uses his speed and swordsmanship.
One possible plot could be that the female Kyuubi uses her charm and power to manipulate Naruto into making hasty decisions. For example, she might convince him to take on dangerous enemies alone without proper preparation. This could lead to Naruto facing challenges that test his limits in new ways.
Well, one possible plot development could be that they initially avoid each other. Alec might throw himself into his work with the Shadowhunters, trying to forget Magnus. Magnus, on the other hand, could start traveling to different magical realms to distract himself. But as time passes, they might start to cross paths again, perhaps due to some common threat to the Shadow World. And slowly, they might start to remember the good times they had and question if the break - up was really the right decision.
Well, it could be about Alec being in a strange situation and suddenly meeting Lucifer. Maybe they start off as enemies but then find common ground as the story progresses. For example, they might both be after the same magical artifact and end up having to work together to get it.
In an Alec Lightwood birthday fanfic, it would be great to have a sub - plot about Alec's dreams for the future. He might share with Magnus his hopes for a more inclusive Shadowhunter world. This could lead to a discussion between them about how they can work together to make that happen. Meanwhile, Izzy could be busy preparing a special Shadowhunter - themed gift for her brother, like a custom - made set of arrows.
