Isabelle would probably have some very interesting ideas!
[ As they say, she's very comfortable with her body. Her confidence is a beautiful thing! It's true that some of her outfits don't seem very... Clary-like though. ]
Why, thank you! I like a little embellishment. That means we should be missing a smaller silver ring with blue inlay and several necklaces.
You try standing over a hot cauldron for several hours and not get the urge to remove a layer or too. I might have hell in my veins, but I still sweat.
I mean, I get that. New York summers can make a person do some crazy stuff without adding boiling liquid to the equation. But did you literally just fling everything from you? Your shirt was the other side of the room.
[ Nor should we be! Everyone's different and some people don't like showing off a lot of skin. Even extremely confident people can have that preference. See: Magnus Bane. Who stays covered up 90% of the time and when he does show some skin, it's because he's rolling up his sleeves to do some work. Or his shirt is mysteriously not buttoned, but never mind that. ]
Are you sure it's mine? Who knows what young Shadowhunters get up to in the library!
[ You're a hero, Clary. And will be rewarded for your efforts. ]
Something like that. I needed to make sure I'd have an appropriate backdoor.
[ Which she knows. But he's still magically awesome, so she keeps expecting him to whip out booty shorts or something. This is the damage a wild imagination can inflict on a person. ]
[ Ooh, no. Magnus with his cravats and his waistcoats? No, no booty shorts here. Not in public, anyway. Behind closed doors, that's anyone's guess. Also, Clary is doing rather admirably with that runaway imagination of hers.
Better still if she separates it from thoughts about what Magnus does behind closed doors. ]
You're right, necklaces don't seem to be his preference where accessories are concerned. Not very practical in combat.
[ Magnus, however, dresses in whatever manner and fashion he likes. ]
That depends on the situation. And how clothed I am.

[ For public indecency. ]

[ Clary, you can make yourself invisible to mundanes. ]
Did I? [ Bit of a pause here. ] I don't have any explanation for that. I promise it was not done in a fit of passion.
[ That came later, once he was safely at home with Alec. And also sans half his outfit. ]

I found a necklace in the plant pot ...
[ This is ridiculous. She really hopes nobody finds her on her hands and knees with a man's shirt ... ]
You said this was a protection spell?

I don't think this is Alec's style.
[ It's the style of the man he loves though. ]
To get in or to get out?

He'd probably wear a bracelet though. If you ever want to do the jewellry thing.
[ /Gentle wingwomaning. ]
Bracelets can still be pretty masculine.

Alexander is quite masculine. Any type of accessory would have to be practical for combat purposes, of course.
[ He's a good boyfriend. He thinks of these things. ]

[ She's getting a little sidetracked. ]
Or would that be too Katniss Everdeen?
no subject
[ As if Magnus doesn't have a huge capacity to get massively sidetracked himself when the subject of conversation happens to be one Alec Lightwood. ]
no subject
[ She just wants them to be happy! ]
And I think I've got everything. I've searched everywhere. The library's clear.

Remind me to do something nice for you next time I see you, my dear. I appreciate the help.
