Everyone always believed that Alec wasn't one to want a family or even want to get married due to how closed-off the boy seemed. It changed when he met Magnus, a glittering star that brightened up the darkness that swirled around the archer. The Warlock took the Shadowhunter by storm and swept him into an embrace that caused him to smile more.

See, it was Izzy that told Magnus that Alec would never want kids. He just didn't seem to be the type to be a family man with him being the Head of the New York Insitute. That sort of made Magnus worry because Magnus loved children and he wanted a big family.

"You're sure he doesn't want kids?" Magnus asked for what felt like the billionth, setting down his cup of earl gray tea with a gentle click.

"I'm sure, Magnus. I've asked him about it and he was firm in his answer. No kids." She assured softly, causing the Warlock to frown in response. "Maybe you can adopt more cats? He loves them?" She offers.

"But I want children, Isabelle. I want a family with him... I can't force him to have kids, but still, I just hate that he might not change his mind." He sighed, resting his chin on the back of his hand.

"I'm sorry, Magnus." She offers a wary smile in return, but Magnus didn't seem interested in trying one back. "Look, I don't know what to say? I mean... I guess you'll just have to maybe change his mind? Maybe a spell?" She questioned.

"I would never use a spell to make Alexander want children." He hissed softly. "That is low... even for you." He points out as she shrugs.

"It was my best option. And hey, if you want kids... You'll just have to compromise?" She explains.

Magnus rolled his eyes, he loved his sister-in-law but sometimes he wanted to shake some sense into her. It was obvious to him that she was no longer deemed helpful and now he'd have to go to someone else... Possibly Jace?

"Well, it's been fun. I think I better runoff. I have a client very soon." He explains as Izzy snorts softly.

"Sure, bye Magnus." She waved as he got up and left the Insitute's kitchen.

"Magnus, what's up?" A deep voice called as he turned to face the blonde Parabatai.

"Jace, just the man I was looking for." He grinned which made Jace step back more out of concern for his own well-being.

"Why? What did I do?" He asked, pouting softly when Magnus rolled his eyes.

"I came to chat. Things about Alexander. Things that maybe only you would know." He gestures, causing Jace to frown.

"Look, I'm not saying I can't help you, but shouldn't you just ask Alec about these things?" The Shadowhunter's face paled at the thought of whatever Magnus was going to ask.

Magnus led him down the hallway towards the training room. Jace glanced at Magnus who snapped his fingers and suddenly his outfit was more for training. The Shadowhunter looked to him in shock as the Warlock quirked a perfectly waxed eyebrow.

"What? Don't think you can handle me?" He asked.

"N-No! No, that's not... Why? I mean I get that you want to talk to me, but why training?" Jace asked in confusion.

"Because I know it helps to focus your mind." He points out, making Jace blink rapidly.

"Okay, okay. I'm game." He shrugs out of his signature leather jacket before tossing it to the side as he looked to Magnus. "Shoot your questions." He comments before grabbing some staffs out of their holders.

"Alright," He caught the wooden pole from Jace. "Tell me, what's Alexander's take on children?" He asked as their weapons clashed.

"Kids? Alec? Hm, I don't know. I've never really heard him talk about it much. Why? You thinking about kids?" Jace asked, swinging his pole to take out the Warlock's feet just as Magnus jolted from his position and moved away from Jace.
