Are you currently in the house? This is a conversation best had in person.

[ Ragnor will find him and get him a drink. ]

[ He's coming downstairs to find Jace, wearing jeans and a black t-shirt which seems at odds with the whole warlock thing, but he can dress like a person.

He walks over to Jace when he sees him.
]

I apologize for that. I wasn't expecting what happened.

[ He looks at Jace, a long look, trying to decide if he sees Tessa somewhere in there. ]

Indeed. Do you want a drink? The safe kind. I've learned my lesson regarding unlabeled ones.

I no longer trust Magnus with beverages.

[ He's getting rum and coke. He has no idea of what Jace likes, but Ragnor doesn't like beer and he also doesn't want to get the kid drunk, as much as he looks like he needs it.

He gets it all with magic, making the drink appear on the bar next to Jace.

He should have thought of that before leaving unlabeled shots at the bar.

[ Ragnor takes a seat, looking at Jace. ]

How are you feeling? I know from experience the whole introduction to this place is far from kind.

The marks are arbitrary but for their society to remain tenable, there has to be more Submissives than Dominants. I would guess at least 60 percent of the population is Submissives.

[ He's eyeballing it, but he knows there are more Submissives, otherwise they would be a lot more Dominants without contracts. ]

Jace, you will have to shed any shame regarding what you enjoy very fast in this city.

[ He spent decades at the Academy, but he never had to teach sex-ed. The Nephilim have always preferred their children repressed and unwilling to experiment.

Except the Herondales, he supposes, that line has always been special. But if he has his history right, Jace stepped out from abuse and was directly thrown in with the Lightwoods.
]

Alec is being weird because this city is hell. Plus, he's likely worried you'll judge him.

You are from further ahead in the timeline. Things happen very quickly once Valentine reappears.

[ Not that he was there for most of it, but he's heard the story, repeatedly, with various levels of exaggeration. ]

Alec and Magnus are both from before any of it. Not entirely sure of where Isabelle is, chronologically. My timeline is different enough from yours to be frustratingly confusing, but I am several years past the Mortal War.

I can tell you what happened in my world, but there is no guarantee things will happen the same way in yours.

[ The parallels do seem too pointed for Jace to not be a Herondale, but that just means it'd be worse if Ragnor was wrong about it. He could be a Wayland boy, raise by Valentine. He could actually be Valentine's son.

Maybe in their world there is no Sebastian. Ragnor can't be sure and saying anything about it would be irresponsible at best.
]

The war will end, as all wars do. We ought to focus on the here and now.

I did work for you Shadowhunters for decades, we must have rubbed off on each other.

[ This Jace is very close to the one he knows, but he's never been close to him. The Herondales he knew are all long gone. ]

Unfortunately for both of us, your family and Magnus are all very nosy people. You won't be able to keep them out of whatever you get up to. The Dominant who contracts you will be legally responsible for you, and if that ends up being Magnus, he will be invested.

[ He takes a drink too. He's not sorry he contracted Magnus, but there are downsides to Magnus feeling responsible for him. ]

You have time to meet other people, Magnus particularly has a large network. And you might feel safer with someone from a different world. There's less weight to it.

[personal profile] unfriendlygreen 2021-03-25 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Someone will be responsible for you regardless of how you feel about it, and no one would want you to contract a Dominant you'd be okay with getting in trouble.

[ Ragnor can recognize that having Magnus as his Dominant has been an excellent deterrent for him, very much the main reason why he hasn't been in trouble with the city yet. ]

You don't have to have sex with your Dominant— Magnus and I don't. And I imagine looking the way you look, you won't struggle finding partners, so that part is covered, at least.

[ This is a lot of information Ragnor isn't entirely sure of what to do with. He'd been hoping to talk to Magnus about Jace's family— potential family, but if Jace is open to sex, then Magnus' attachment to the Herondales would only complicate the whole love triangle further. He doubts Magnus would even entertain the idea of allowing Jace to contract someone else with the Herondale possibility on the table.

Hell, Ragnor himself is not entirely sure he's comfortable with Jace contracting a stranger.
]

You have time. Don't contract anyone for the time being, my own contract expires next month and we can revisit where everyone is standing then.

[ As far as Ragnor knows, not many Dominants have more than two Submissives. He has no idea if Magnus would be allowed to have four. But he's made enough friends, he could probably contract someone else and let Magnus handle his Nephilim. ]

This place is a nightmare, but you don't have to deal with it right now or by yourself.
