Alec rolled his eyes when Sebastian refused to accept the compliment. What he'd said was true and eventually Sebastian would figure it out.
Wanting to talk to someone who wasn't his siblings or Magnus was new. He'd never been the center of attention or considered 'interesting'. He'd never understood talking about yourself but with Sebastian it was easy to talk about his world and his life.
He couldn't even talk to Jace like this. His parabatai tried but it wasn't in Jace's nature. And Magnus... Now he could but when they'd first started dating, it had almost been painfully awkward. With Sebastian... if Alec didn't know that Sebastian was still grieving...
At least jealousy wasn't something that he and Magnus worried about anymore.
"Yeah. Warlocks are born from a demon and a human. His mother was human and a demon visited her." Lightly kicking his foot in the water, Alec tried to think of the best way to explain. "I don't think she knew. They sometimes shift shape so she would have thought the demon was her husband." At least that was Alec's guess no matter what Magnus' father had hinted at. Demons lied, especially when it could hurt someone deeply. "There's no way to be sure. It was centuries ago. But he's a good person. That matters more than who his father was."
