Family and friends' support is another crucial part. In the fanfiction, we often see how their friends like Jace and Clary help them out, whether it's babysitting or just giving advice. This shows the importance of community within the Shadowhunter world when it comes to raising a baby.
Well, perhaps the fanfiction could focus on how Magnus and Alec adjust to having a baby in their lives. Alec, being a shadowhunter, might have some traditional ideas about parenting which could clash with Magnus's more free - spirited and magical approach. And they could grow and learn from each other throughout the process.
One popular Magnus and Alec baby fanfiction is 'A New Beginning'. It focuses on their journey as new parents, dealing with the joys and challenges of raising a baby in the Shadowhunter world. It beautifully portrays their love for each other and how it extends to their new family member.
The passion is a great element. When Alec and Magnus kiss in fanfiction, it's often described with a lot of heat and intensity. It shows the strong physical attraction between them.
I think their relationship would deepen. With a baby, they would share more responsibilities and experiences. There would be more moments of tenderness as they care for their child. Also, they might face some stressors that could either bring them closer or cause some minor frictions, but overall, it would strengthen their bond.
Another theme is the struggle against prejudice. Since they are from different 'worlds' in the story, they face a lot of judgment from others, and fanfictions often deal with how they overcome this. Also, the theme of self - discovery is quite common. Both characters grow and learn more about themselves through their relationship with each other.
Love is a very common theme. Their love story, how they overcame differences to be together. Another is the theme of acceptance, like Alec accepting Magnus' warlock nature and Magnus accepting Alec's Shadowhunter duties. And also the theme of family, as they both have different family backgrounds and how they merge their families in a way.
A frequent theme is also the power dynamics. Magnus has his powerful magic, and Alec has his position in the shadowhunter world. How they balance this in their relationship is often explored. Also, the theme of family acceptance is common. Alec's family and their reactions to his relationship with Magnus are often part of the stories.
They could also have a moment of friendship while exploring new places. For instance, they visit a hidden magical realm that neither of them has been to before. They share their excitement and fears during this adventure, relying on each other for support and protection, which deepens their friendship.
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.
Jealousy can also be a common element. In these fanfics, there might be instances where Alec is jealous of Magnus's past relationships or his popularity in the Downworld. Magnus, on the other hand, could be jealous of Alec's closeness to his Shadowhunter friends or family. Another aspect is fear of abandonment. Given their different natures and the challenges they face in their relationship, both characters may fear that the other will leave at some point.
