Of Splendour In The Grass by Lecrit

Alec couldn’t remember the last time the Lightwood mansion had been so spirited.
Even when their parents were away on business, the Lightwoods often had guests staying at the mansion, although it usually wasn’t for longer than for a night of festivities in the peak of the summer. Apparently - or so he had gathered from Isabelle’s fondly annoyed and persistent claims - this guest was special, not only because he wasn’t meant to stay for a single night, and not even because he wasn’t a potential business partner.
“He is a celebrity,” Isabelle told him when he lifted an eyebrow at her, silently leveling her with a dubious look.

The Victorian AU no one asked for, where Magnus and Alec fall in love through chess, poetry and whispers in the night, but nothing is that simple.

The Victorian AU that kind of taught me a shit ton about history. Okay. Not sure if the facts that I learned from here are actually true but who cares. I think I learned something and I´m taking that as a win.

So. Not everything is rainbows and happiness. Sometimes there are other people and public opinion who are against you and bad guys. Sometimes bad shit happens when all you try is to be happy. And all that is the whole story in a nutshell.

I don't really read any historic or any stories that are trying to be historically accurate. Okay. I like books that have been written over 100 years ago but that's different. But I am really happy that I read this and enjoyed this even. I even liked the ending and how they figured everything out and how it all just somehow works. And maybe there is a happy ending or something close at least.

To be honest. I don't know. I just liked this and I read this and that's it. So, go and read this. Yea.
