What are some common ways Alec gets manipulated in the 'Alec gets manipulated by Magus' fanfic?

Alec is likely a character in the fanfic, perhaps someone who is vulnerable to manipulation. Magus is the one who does the manipulating. Without more context from the fanfic, it's hard to say more about their specific identities or backstories.

One common way could be through using his magic in a subtle way. For example, he might use magic to create situations where Alec has no choice but to follow his lead. Maybe he makes it seem like the only option for Alec to protect his friends or family is to do what Magnus wants.

Yes, there might be. Fanfics are widely spread across various fanfic platforms. You can try searching on popular ones like Archive of Our Own or FanFiction.net.

Well, it could be that Magus uses some form of magic or power to control Alec's actions for his own purposes, like making Alec do things against his will to achieve a certain goal in a fictional world.

It's also possible that the real antagonist is Alec's own insecurities. Magnus might be using Alec's insecurities to manipulate him. So in a way, Alec's internal struggles could be seen as the antagonist. But again, from the title's perspective, Magnus is the one directly involved in the act of manipulation.

He may also try to reason with Magnus or the kidnappers. Alec is a smart guy, so he might try to find a way to get out of the situation through dialogue. He could point out the negative impacts of their actions on everyone involved.

Perhaps Alec's friends and family would launch a rescue mission. They could be very determined to get him back, and in the process, there could be a big showdown between Magnus' fans who support the kidnapping and those who oppose it. It could also lead to a deeper exploration of Magnus' character, like whether he has some dark side that allows this to happen or if it was just a momentary lapse of judgment.

One interesting plotline could be Alec getting hurt while on a solo mission. He might be underestimated by the enemy, but then he ends up in a really bad state. This forces the other characters to reevaluate how they send out Shadowhunters alone. It also gives a chance for his relationship with Magnus to be tested as Magnus tries to help him recover both physically and mentally.

Another plotline might be that in a world where the laws of nature are different for certain characters, Magnus and Alec decide to have a child in this unique way. The story could then focus on how they deal with the reactions of their friends and family, and also the challenges of Alec's pregnancy, like his changing body and emotions. It could also involve them preparing for the arrival of the baby, from choosing a name to setting up a nursery.

I'm sorry, but male pregnancy is a rather non - traditional and often not part of the original canon in most stories. However, you can try searching on fanfiction - specific websites like Archive of Our Own. Just type in the relevant tags such as 'Magnus' and 'Alec' and see if there are any creative takes on their relationship that might be similar to what you're looking for.
