„Come on," he said."Let's get back to Alec before he decides Isabelle and Simon are having sex off in the caves and starts freaking out.“

„Fine." Magnus stood up. "But," he added, pausing by Alec's chair and leaning in close to him, "you are not trivial."Alec flushed. "If you say so," he said."I say so," said Magnus, and he turned to follow Isabelle out of the room.“

„He looks," Simon had once said to Isabelle, "like he's thinking about something deep and meaningful, but if you ask him what it is, he'll punch you in the face.“

„It wasn’t sexy," he said.“It was a little sexy,” Simon said.He felt much better, having fed, and couldn’t help but poke at Alec a bit.“It wasn’t,” said Alec.“I had some feelings,” said Simon.”"Do feel free to agonize about it on your own time.“

„It wasn’t sexy,” he said.“It was a little sexy,” Simon said…“It wasn’t,” said Alec.“I had some feelings,” said Simon.“

„It was a little sexy, Simon said. He felt much better, having fed, and couldn't help but poke at Alec a bit. It wasn't, said Alec. I had some feelings, said Simon.“

„Alec's trying to get Magnus to take him seriously, but he's never told our parents about Magnus, or even that he likes, you know -" "Warlocks?" Simon said.“

„What's this?" he demanded, looking from Clary to his companions, as if they might know what she was doing there."It's a girl," Jace said, recovering his composure. "Surely you've seen girls before, Alec. Your sister Isabelle is one.“
— Cassandra Clare
„Well, not in this case. He reached into the Inquisitor and he…" Clary shuddered. "There was a lot of blood.""Like a special bonus for you," Jace said to Simon.Simon ignored this.“
— Cassandra Clare
„I told you to wait,” he snapped at Alec.“Don’t you ever do anything I tell you to?”“Technically you didn’t actually say anything,”Clary said. “You just gestured.”“Gesturing counts,” Jace said. “I gesturevery expressively.“

„Isabelle," she said, lightening her tone with an obvious effort, "your loyalty to your friend is understandable --""He's not my friend." Isabelle looked over at Jace, who was staring at her in a sort of daze. "He's my brother.“
— Cassandra Clare
„They had just showed up, Amatis had said. Which meant Simon had spent thenight at Isabelle's. She stared at him. He didn'tany different.“
— Cassandra Clare
„Alec shrugged "Look who's talking. 'Oh, I love her. Oh, she's my sister. Oh why, why, why--"Jace threw a handful of dead leaves at Alec, making him splutter.Isabelle was laughing. "You know he's right, Jace.“
— Cassandra Clare
„It's a girl," Jace said, recovering his composure. "Surely you've seen girls before, Alec. Your sister Isabelle is one.“
— Cassandra Clare
„Why did he kiss you?" she said.“

„Isabelle was holding an umbrella. It was clear plastic, decorated with decals of colorful flowers. It was one of the girliest things Simon had ever seen, and he didn’t blame Alec for ducking out from under it and taking his chances with the rain.“

„I am not doing this in front of everyone," Simon announced.“It’s not spin the bottle, Simon,” said Clary. “It’s just food. Not that you’re food, Alec,” she added when he glared. She held her hands up. “Never mind.“
— Cassandra Clare
„It’s okay,” said Alec. “I once walked in on you and Isabelle. I guess turnabout’s fair play.” He frowned. “Although you two were in my room at the time, so actually I think you still owe me.“
— Cassandra Clare
„"Or maybe she's trying to take the attention off you," Simon said, almost absently. "You know since your parents don't know you're gay and all."Alec stopped in the middle of the road so suddenly that Simon almost crashed into him. "No," he said, "but apparently everyone else does."“
