If someone were to ask him to think back and pinpoint the exact moment he fell in love with Magnus, he would come up short. There were so many moments, so many glances and laughs and smiles and conversations in which Alec’s heart had felt like it was begging to jump out of his chest and attach itself to Magnus’. It had been quick, that much he knew for sure.

My runes, just like your magic, did not define me. They gave me power, made me stronger, but they did not shape my heart or my mind. I used to think they did, and I used that as an excuse to be cruel and close-minded. But your heart, Magnus, your soul, they aren’t connected to your magic. They’re still with you, and they’re still as pure as they have been your entire life.

Summary:
He hated how after centuries of working to better himself and become who he wanted to be outside of his father’s influence, he had still ended up right back where he started, under Asmodeus’ thumb. He hated that every time he looked at his hands all he could see was all of the potential and use that he had given up, how all his life he had at least been able to claim that his demon blood served a greater purpose.
Most of all, though, he hated that he didn’t feel like Magnus Bane anymore.
