Handwriting:
Alec was looking forward to seeing his boyfriend for the first time in a week. Because of differing schedules (mostly Alec's) and inopportune demon raids, they just hadn't found the time. Alec did know, however, from the angry texts he received late at night that it hadn't been a good one for Magnus. Which was why Alec –knowing how Magnus's fits of unhappiness could be—hesitated when he saw a sign hanging on Magnus's door that said: No trespassing. Violators will be shot, survivors will be shot again. Alec raised his hand to the door, deciding that knocking would be more polite than walking in, even if he did have a key. His two ginger knocks echoed through the hallway and even before the reverberations dissipated, the door flew open, revealing a disgruntled Magnus.
"About time," he muttered, then: "I did give you a key, Alexander." Magnus grabbed his arm and began pulling him into the apartment, but paused—Alec half across the threshold—when Alec pointed to the threatening sign hung on the door in silent explanation. Magnus shook his head. "That doesn't apply to you. It never does." But Magnus let go of Alec's arm and exhaled an exasperated sigh. "If there is a misunderstanding. . . " he murmured and with a glowing finger quickly scrawled "Excepting Alexander Lightwood" in flashing rainbow letters.
Magnus took a step back and admired his work, but raised his finger to the sign again almost immediately. With his finger slightly sparking, he completed his inscription with a small heart that matched the previous lettering underneath Alec's name. Magnus turned to him and smiled crookedly, waiting for an answer, but Alec felt his cheeks heat up and followed Magnus into the apartment without further comment.
