    Magnus Bane leads a double life: By day, he is the son of Asmodeus Bane, the Duke of Edom. But when night falls, he transforms into an infallible assassin, operating under the orders of a secret society to maintain the fragile balance of society.

    His world is thrown into turmoil when he is assigned to eliminate Alexander Lightwood, the Duke of Alicante. For the first time in his life, Magnus fails. But failure comes at a high price - his own life. As the deadly consequences of his failure loom closer, Magnus discovers that the man he was supposed to kill has stolen his heart in a single night.

    Can Magnus find a way to save his own life while protecting the man who means more to him with each passing day? In a game of betrayal, passion, and deadly secrets, Magnus must decide: heart or duty?

    Summary

    In retrospect, they should have assumed something like this could happen. James will blame himself later on, insisting he should have known that there was a chance this could be a consequence of their involvement in ending Silas’ schemes.

    (Sherlock will, of course, tell him it’s not his fault, even as he grimaces in pain while doing so.)

    It comes in the form of a package from Sherlock’s mother.

    (Or: James and Sherlock are taken by one of Silas’s former partners. Conversations are had, secrets are shared, and revelations come to light. Heavy on the whump.)

    Summary

    And, dear god, he is already in Sherlock’s mind, in his head, and try as he might, he cannot convince himself to see James as a parasite, as an infestation destined to kill him. In his lovesickness, Sherlock can’t see James as anything else than a bloody, magnificent revelation.

    or: 5 times Sherlock asks a question about James +1 time he doesn't need to

    Summary

    "I—" Sherlock choked, somewhere between a cough and a sob.

    "Here," his father said, sliding a glass into his hands. "Drink."

    Sherlock did as he was told. There was something bitter to it, so unlike the drinks he and his mother had prepared earlier, but then again he wasn't sure he could trust his mind. His memories.

    And if he couldn't trust those, where did that leave him?

    "You have a brilliant mind. I always said that," his father said, as if he had heard his thoughts. "But there's a cost to brilliance."

    Summary

    Seeing Sherlock's blood was nothing new. He'd certainly watched him get his arse kicked and his nose split enough to be familiar with the sight, but this was different. He'd been shot, and there was nothing James could do.
