I'm learning! [The protest was half-hearted. Glitter is not one of his favorite fashion choices unless it's on Magnus.] I prefer eyeliner to the sparkles.

[He's not quite sure how he knows that. Part of the fake memories from Wayward Pines or something else? There'd been a few parties in Europe that are still a bit hazy. He thinks he may have gotten drunk enough to agree to let Magnus try eyeliner on him.]

At least I think I preferred the eyeliner? [It shouldn't be a question but until they know what memories are real, Alec isn't sure which of his 'honeymoon' experiences are true. Smiling when her shoulder bumps against him, he manages not to blurt out the first thing that comes to mind about them all being in one place. At least Izzy doesn't seem to remember the guilt she'd felt months ago.]

Most of us at least. I keep waiting for Clary and Simon to show up.

[Actually he's surprised that they aren't since Clary is rarely separated from Jace and Simon follows her no matter what may happen to them.]

I saw Jace and Max over there. [Gesturing toward the front of the crowd, he stretches so that he catches a glimpse of blond hair, automatically knowing that the being is his parabatai.] He said he'd watch Max for awhile. I'm not sure where Magnus is.
