My own Prompt: Analyze the breakup of Malec (Magnus and Alec)
I have just barely started reading this book and I do not want to spoil anything since it is the last book of the series. Therefore I shall just make a prediction with a couple in this book because they broke up. Which is also like breaking up with me…
Magnus, the high warlock of New York, is bisexual and is obsessed with glitter. He has a bad habit of helping out shadowhunters when in need which makes himself an easy target. Well while in the process he meets this handsome shadowhunter named Alec. Alec is homosexual, and has barely admitted it when he met Magnus Bane. Shadowhunters are not fond of homosexuals. Alec gets less respect and taken for granted but Magnus is always there to lift up his spirits.
A vampire who used to date Magnus had teased Alec saying that he will get old and eventually die while Magnus will live forever. Thats when Alec seeks out a way to be immortal. Which is turned the other way around he seeks for a way to take away Magnus' immortality. Though Alec could never do something like that to his love he forgets on doing anything. Then the vampire goes and tells Magnus what Alec was up to which leads their relationship to chaos which they eventually break up. Magnus' last words to him were, "Aku cinta kamu." Which means I love you. For me that means that the relationship actually still has hope. Magnus did not actually breakup with Alec because of what he did. He broke up with him because he is scared.
Magnus had a vision. A town all covered in blood. Shadowhunter blood. He can see war coming. He is scared that he will lose Alec in the process of the war. Thinking he won't be heartbroken if they don't have a relationship and one of them dies Magnus breaks up with Alec. I do not think that will make a difference. There is a quote that I love, "The Fear of suffering is worst than the suffering itself." I don't think Magnus has lived that long to discover that.
