“So you’re saying he’s easily bought. I’ll keep that in mind. Though hopefully he doesn’t get too upset if this happens again and we can’t get him something nice.” He had a feeling that Magnus had a bunch of gift ideas up his sleeve, so he’d leave that to him. “I was born ready for this.” That sounded more cheesy than Alec would have liked, but there was no taking it back now. “We’re going to be fine. The fans will love it. You’ve seen them online. They were ‘shipping’ us before we were even an us.” It felt weird to be the one to be reassuring Magnus, but also he knew it was bound to happen sometime. He chuckled and nodded, before leading the way to the rehearsal room. Alec picked up a mike and flipped on the switch. He already had the song memorized, so when the tune started to play, he sang when his moment was ready. His eyes were on Magnus all the while and he felt as if he could fall a little more in love with him every time he sang with him.

When rehearsal was over, they were told to head toward the back stage room where they would have to change. Alec reached out for Magnus’s hand and gave it a squeeze. “That was a great rehearsal, Magnus. I told you we’d be fine. And we’ll be even better tonight. Just you wait. The fans will be begging for more.”

Magnus laughed and shrugged. “Usually, yes. He’s just protective of me, after being in the background so long, he wants to make sure I’m doing okay so he kind of freaks out when I’m late.” Sometimes Magnus didn’t know how to handle it, but somehow whenever he was questioning it, Alec was right there and brought him back. “I feel like they may be extra loud tonight, and I’m preparing myself for cray art all over the arena.” he laughed a little, going through their sets and light changes, adjusting mics and when they were done, he took one last look at the empty arena, knowing it was sold out tonight and the next time they saw it, it would be filled with fans. 

He moved a little closer to Alec when his boyfriend took his hand, nodding. “I know, I’m just nervous is all, and not about the fans.” he assured. “Do you know what you’re wearing tonight, yet?” He asked as he looked up, dark eyes watching him with a smile.

Ragnor had started to yell as they’d entered their dressing room, but upon seeing both food and a little box indicating another gift, the man was placated and settled for reminding the two that they had a tour to finish. Magnus rolled his eyes and nodded, going to pick his makeup for the night and going over the set list with Alec calmly. As soon as Ragnor left, Magnus laughed. “I told you, the man can easily be calmed if you have something for him when you’re late.” he replied, pausing before leaning over to kiss his boyfriend’s cheek. “Are you ready for this?” he asked. “It’s our first show as an official couple.” He was a little nervous himself, but he knew Alec was going to be right beside him the whole time. He smiled as he reached to take Alec’s hand and lace their fingers. “Let’s go get rehearsal done so we can get ready for a lot of excited screaming.”

Magnus’ Verses

Main [ quite magical cat eyes;; main Magnus ]

Magnus has lived for centuries, a warlock with power unimaginable to most and sought by some. The chosen son of one of the Princes of Hell, Magnus uses his magic to help people as much as to make life easier on himself. There has to be good in this magic that was sparked by his father’s darkness after all, right?

Human [ surrendered magic;; human Magnus ]

Typically this is played as Magnus was born a human and lives in an apartment with his two cats, and makes a decent living at his job (varies on thread) and he’s a gentleman to all those who catch his eye. However, following show canon, there is a version of this verse that has him giving up his magic.

Singer/Songwriter [ write me a song;; singer Magnus ]

Bane Records was started by Asmodeus Bane, and after the death of his wife, the owner locked away his son, Magnus from the world. Magnus has talent as a songwriter for many number one hits since his mother’s death, and he’s even sung the demos that get sent to artists, and everyone is curious why he hasn’t breached the circle of his life onto the stage. Being hidden and mistreated by his father has left the young man a little lost for the strength to be forceful, but those at the company have brought forward a campaign to make Magnus a performer.

Stripper [ beneath the lights;; stripper Magnus ]

Magnus left home to get away from the abuse of his mother and stepfather, making a living with dance. He was hired by a prominent night club and is one of the best dancers in the establishment, but he’s more than the stigma of his profession.
