day 11: magnus bane & alec lightwood shadowhunters

(this is a remake of this, which is from 2 years ago and was one of the first gifsets i ever made)

All the legends are true. We're Shadowhunters. We protect the human world from the demon world.

“We do not get to choose when in our lives we feel pain," said Matthew. "It comes when it comes, and we try to remember, even though we cannot imagine a day when it will release its hold on us, that all pain fades. All misery passes. Humanity is drawn to light, not darkness.”

↳ “when I was a boy, discovering my powers, i had no one. i had to figure out the downworld all on my own. It was awful. so.. i vowed to myself that if i ever found someone in a similar situation, i’d try to make sure they didn’t have to go at it alone.”

“I think of myself as a freewheeling bisexual.” - Magnus Bane, High Warlock of Brooklyn
