Harry Shum Jr., who gives life to the character of warlock Magnus Bane, shared told Out magazine a few things he'd wish to see happen between his character and Alec Lightwood in the second season of Shadowhunters, including a magical "love quarrel."

"I would love to see Alec and Magnus fight together. That would be so cool to see. Fighting together would be hilarious dialogue, some great effects, and action. And of course, magic! You can never have too much magic," the Glee alum said.

Aside from an exciting relationship between Magnus and Alec, the 34-year-old actor also revealed that in the next season, fans would see Magnus helping Alec open up more about his sexuality. Shum described Alex as someone who is still unsure of his feelings, which actually draws him closer to the shadowhunter.

Malec started to gain loyal fan base ever since Alec's scene in Shadowhunters episode 12, where he came out. The episode, titled Malec, fueled further speculation that there will be more to their relationship.

In episode 12, Alec was about to get married to Lydia (Stephanie Bennett) but decided to walk away and kiss Magnus instead. Eager fans will be glad to know that the show's producer Michael Reisz told Paste magazine that the two characters' kiss is only the tip of the iceberg and the upcoming season will delve more into their relationship as a couple.

Season 2 of Shadowhunters will premiere in early 2017.
