@marbles290 And where's Alec's apology to Magnus for calling him overdramatic and accusing him of overreacting? When that's one of the most hurtful things you can say to someone with ptsd, especially when his life and the lives of everyone he loves were on the line on both occasions. Alec has said waaay more deeply hurtful things to Magnus than Magnus has to Alec, it's just y'all choose to ignore them and shrug them off why you won't let go of Magnus', and we all know why.

TELL THEM!

“Let’s not be dramatic” he says, when asking Magnus for hair to prove he’s not a fucking murderer. 

“Don’t make this personal” he says when he’s lied about a weapon that could potentially kill every single  downworlder in the world.

And btw Todd advertised that episode as Malec heavy twice, and there wasn’t anything vague about it in his tweets. He also said that we would see lots of passion when it came to Malec, and we’ve seen none of that.

Todd answering a question from a fan on twitter isn’t advertising.  Also if you go back and look through every time Todd did a series of twitter answers, Malec was always asked about more than any other character or couple.  There are only so many times and so many ways he can give the same damn answer.  

Yes this. Of course thinking that he could deal with the kind of stuff listed and actually succeeding at dealing with it are two entirely different things, as I'm sure that we will witness in the near future. I think that deep down he never thought the reason why Connor could be going to jail would be that serious. But yes, nevertheless, his reaction was /very/ peculiar. Quite similar to the one he had in that hilarious tête à tête they had in the shower this season. :D

MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE THING about it was seeing how far down the [list] of crimes ‘murder’ had been during what must have been his thought process/analysis of the whole situation. 

Like is it a glimpse into Hampton’s psyche or a mere reflection of how his thoughts are organized and compartmentalized? Because let me tell you, the sequence of Bribery > Arms Dealing > Grand Theft Auto > Prostitution (which is a crime in Pennsylvania, apparently) > Vehicular Manslaughter > (AND THEN FINALLY) Murder made me pause the first time I saw this image and I had the strangest thought that Oliver’s knowledge of The Crime Life may be, in some ways, influenced by quests and/or story lines in the GTA video game(s)...

That had been a very unprompted thought which very quickly turned into a headcanon for me for a solid five minutes.

Even now I can’t help but wonder that he might have possibly finished some terrorism / pedophilia documentary recently and so that’s where he started off and then at some point around ‘bank robbery’ got his mind wandering to the video game (which canonically is something he enjoys and even if it may not be to his own gaming tastes GTA is still pretty popular enough to be like a gamer’s staple), to MURDER, to more rational possibilities (perjury and identity theft and tax fraud, bless you Hampton) and then finishing it off with ‘wildlife smuggling’. 

It's from 2x06 aka the ep in which they have their first date.

Magnus and Alec didn’t even feel like a realistic couple in the latest episode, emotionally maybe, in the minimal screentime they were given, but physically?? There was no giddiness over their first time, no caresses, no kisses on the cheek, mouth, hand, whatever. Only a shoulder pat that was probably improvised by Harry.

Friendly reminder that the whole point of...

Nah they took their sweet time to develop Climon in 2x08 with long conversations and heartfelt kisses while Malec got a fade to black first time, 2:58 min of screentime in an episode advertised as “Malec mania” and a pat in the shoulder in the last episode. They messed up big time.

Idk I actually feel bad for Climon shippers, I think that it was rushed and out of no where, especially compared to the development that we’ve had with Malec since Magnus was introduced in S1.  Other than Clary checking out Simon’s abs in 2x07 there was little to no indication that she had feelings for Simon.  Going into the episode knowing that there were going to be hallucinations I honestly thought that scene was fake when it first started.   Also I don’t know that one person’s vague tweet counts as advertising an episode.

Interesting. But why is it that every time that a couple doesn’t like PDA it’s a lgbt+ couple?? Mmm? That’s the same card that RIB would pull when Klaine wouldn’t kiss/touch for episodes while all the straight couples would made out several times per episode.

Well I mean Cassie wrote their personalities like that, not the show runners but if you want to compare them to Klaine, Klaine never got PDA or private moments.  Malec has gotten multiple private moments this season.  Klaine was lucky to get one each season.  And I’m not even arguing that Malec don’t like PDA, Alec did kiss Magnus at his wedding.  I just think that private, intimate moments are more their thing than making out in the middle of a party or whatever.
