[ "I'm okay with not talking about it too much," he says and then drops a bomb like that on her. But it's fine, she'll just need a minute to process and fight the urge to ask 500 million questions. ]
You got married? Do they even recognize that here?
They recognize permanent contracts more than marriage, but she was a Submissive and I was her Dominant, so they didn't fight it. I doubt it meant anything to them, other than silly foreigners with strange reasoning for a party.
[ It hurts to talk about sometimes, but there are people he keeps close to him that have to know. At least on a certain level. He's not going to share every detail with Clary, but she can know about her. ]
it's not the first time, so oh but she was wonderful. Fiery and loving and passionate. She put her all into everything she did and loved. She was stubborn and hated to back down to anyone.
[ Huh. Funny, some of those attributes are ones she would ascribe to Alec. Clearly Magnus gravitates towards a certain sort of person (which doesn't surprise her; he's a very strong personality as well, someone who surely wouldn't do well with anyone meek and dull). ]
She sounds really lovely. I'm sorry I won't get the chance to meet her.
[ Magnus definitely sees the similarities himself, somewhat, but he tries not to compare any of his lovers, even in seeing the common threads that he's attracted to. ]
You would have loved her. And she would have liked you too.

[ Not a question. They may not have discussed anything even remotely that personal, but even a centuries-old warlock must care about that. ]
I'm sorry, Magnus.
It can't be easy losing someone like that.
What was she like?

How long ago did she leave?

October of last year.

Two stubborn people in the same room can get exhausting.
Or so I've been told.
Do you think she could ever come back?
no subject
but maybe I'm just too easily amused.
She could, in theory. George was my other Submissive, someone I loved, and he's back now. So. Anything's possible.
