As Alec discussed plans with the others, his gaze drifted to one of the patrons he'd never met before. He hadn't been at the ball. Not that Alec really remembered much about it other than his brief time as Cinderella and spending the night dancing with Magnus. Still, he could usually remember faces so this person had to be new.
His occasional glances gave him details that reminded him a bit of himself in his pre-Magnus phase. Staying out of the way while others discussed plans until he had something to contribute or trying to fade into the background so no one noticed him.
He was better at that now, speaking up and encouraging the younger Shadowhunters when he could.
The newest patron might not be Nephilim but he needed someone to talk to him before he was accidentally left behind. When the plans were settled, Alec moved over to where Sebastian was listening in. Hopefully he wouldn't be too freaked out by Alec's Marks or the mention of demons. "Hi, I'm Alec."
