Summary:
Alec doesn’t think twice before opening himself up to Magnus. Magnus thinks it over a hundred times before doing the same. Sometimes, he doesn’t quite manage it. Alec understands that a century’s worth of defences is difficult to dismantle. It doesn’t make it any easier to be on the other side of it. [Coda to 3×01]
