"Usually they have some Fae blood in their family but other Non-Shadowhunters could have the Sight." It was rare but how could someone really track who was born Fae unless there was pointy ears or some other sign of the influence that was obvious? "If we let them see them, they can. Usually I glamour my marks or we glamour ourselves completely so only people from the Shadow World can see us."

Would that bother Sebastian? In Alec's world, they probably wouldn't have met because he rarely interacted with Mundanes. The thought sickened him slightly. How many people had they ignored because they weren't 'good enough'? At least being with Magnus had cured some of his elitism. "Glamours hide things we don't want seen. I normally hide my Marks when I think they'll draw too much attention. Magnus had to hide his eyes for centuries." That wasn't too much of a secret to tell. It was simple logic. Magnus' eyes were too distinctive not to get unwelcome attention from someone.

Smiling at the kisses, he stole a few when he could. "Would she speak English to me?" What would she think of a boy covered in scars and Marks? Maybe all that would matter was if Alec could make Sebastian happy. "I don't mind. I don't want to have secrets unless it's something I can't share because it'll hurt someone else. And we've told a few Non-Shadowhunters about us so I've broken the rules before."

Lifting Sebastian's hand, he kissed the back, brushing his thumb along his friend's knuckles. "You saw a few of them when we were in the bath," he teased but he knew that Sebastian probably hadn't been paying attention to his Marks. "You'll get to see them. They cover most of my body." Sebastian could decide how much of them he wanted to see... eventually. He'd promised nothing too serious would happen today and he wasn't going to break that promise.
