This is why I love them both. Alec and Magnus
- Alec: You never called me back, I called you so many times and you never called me back.
- Magnus: Your city is under attack, the wards have broken, and the streets are full of demons. And you want to know why I haven't called you? You're an idiot.
- Alec: Is that why you didn't call me? Because I'm an idiot?
- Magnus: No. I didn't call you because I'm tired of you only wanting me when you need something. I'm tired of watching you be in love with someone else-- someone, incidentally, who will never love you back. Not the way I do.
- Alec: You love me?
- Magnus: You stupid Nephilim, Why else am I here? Why would I have spent the past few weeks patching up all your moronic friends every time they got hurt? And getting you out of every ridiculous situation you found yourself in? Not to mention helping you win a battle against Valentine. And all completely free of charge.
