Gasping, Magnus feigned a wounded expression as a hand splayed over his chest as if holding an injury. "Those rainbow pants are exquisite, they're hardly a test of your tolerance," he said with a soft sniff as if holding back tears. His playful expression melted into one of genuine adoration brought on simply because Alec knew him well. "Yes, I tend to make my own trends unless there's a specific dress code. I do have a sense of propriety, after all. But I also like to think I have an eye for things that are under-appreciated," he added as he looked between their joined hands and his husband's smiling face.

The brush of lips made him cast a smile down towards his lap. Alec always managed to surprise him, both with his own actions and the reactions he inspired in Magnus. It was incredible to think that he could feel shy about the kind of openly infatuated smile a simple kiss could bring to his face. "It helps to be living somewhere without any preconceived notions about who and what we are," he said in agreement. Looking up at Alec, he squeezed their hands and took a second to drop his glamour for Alec. "I'm never disappointed by an opportunity to spend time alone with you, sayang."
