Jace tilted his head, considering it. "If we hadn't been parabatai, I probably absolutely would have told you. We'd already taken the bond, I was terrified they'd de-rune us both." He sighed a little, and nuzzled along Alec's jawline. "You do keep me safe," he agreed.

"With magic," he said dolefully, looking for sympathy. "I know. And we can still do that if there's things we want to try out, too. I just didn't want to make it more awkward and make you look at more porn." He laughed. "Yeah. I can ask Magnus. Or make Ragnor tell me, he wants to be so informative."

"Thus the best Alec ever," he pointed out. The kiss was good, exactly what he wanted, and he tugged Alec a little closer, curving his body into Alec's, still stroking up and down his back lazily. "Good. Fucking finally," he teased, kissing Alec again.

Alec smiled wryly. "I don't know if I ever would have," he said. "I'd like to think maybe someday I'd have worked up the guts, but probably not. I'm a coward about things like that." He tipped his head for Jace's nuzzling. "That's my job. I'll always try."

Alec laughed again. "Ask him about Magnus' musical talents sometime. He'll get extremely cranky about it." He kissed at Jace's neck. "I can READ things without watching porn. I just don't understand porn. I don't want to watch strangers have sex. But yeah. Ask Ragnor. Tell me what his face did later too."

He smiled. "I'll take the title," he decided. Alec let the tug pull him and rolled the rest of the way on top of Jace, sinking into the slow kisses.

"You're not a coward, Alec. You had a lot to lose, a lot of pressure on you, and a lot of expectations. It was really hard for you to be selfish and want things for yourself, always was." Jace got it. Jace honestly put almost as much pressure on himself as Alec did, trying to be the best, as if to make up for everything else in his life. "You do an excellent job," he murmured, nipping at Alec's throat.

"Hmmm. I have a list of things I'm supposed to ask people about, I'm starting to think I'm being set up for jokes," he whined playfully. "Besides, isn't Ragnor like, always cranky?" Jace laughed. "Yeah, but you're okay watching people you like having sex, so it's not really that far removed?"

"Well, you earned it, so," Jace said. Then he got distracted with kissing, and letting his fingers trace over the line of Alec's back, over his spine, his shoulder blades, the hollow right at the base of his spine.

"Maybe," Alec said. "But so did you. so does everyone. I just reacted to it differently, and that's at least a little bit me being a coward." He swallowed as Jace nipped him, chin tipping back more.

"I wouldn't set you up about that," Alec said. "But I do like when Ragnor's face looks like he ate a lemon raw. He's always cranky, but it's ... I don't know. I think it's like what he puts on to keep people from getting too close. He'll help pretty much anyone who asks him, as far as I've seen." He blushed. "That's not the same. That's ... participating."

One kiss turned easily into more. Slow, languid making out that took on a more gradual hunger, Alec's thigh slipping between Jace's legs to press against him.

"Hmmm. Yeah. but I was just a Wayland, Lightwood by adoption. You were the eldest son, the heir to the crown, blah blah blah." Jace had never been incredibly impressed with the pressure his parents had put on Alec. Even if he had absolute faith that Alec could handle it. "You did fine." Jace noted the obvious interest in the nipping, and trailed a slow line of them over the column of his throat, before worrying his teeth a little right at his adam's apple, before licking the sting away.

Jace snickered. "So just everyone in the house picks on him then, to get a reaction. Mean." Didn't mean Jace wouldn't join in a little, though. He laughed a little at the blush, brushing his lips across one of Alec's cheeks. "Hmmm. Remember to point out you participating later."

Jace groaned a little as Alec's thigh slipped between his legs, rocking up just a little, to get a little friction, even as his hands slid up his back, trying to tug him in even a little bit closer.

"There's no crown," Alec grumbled. But he didn't argue any further. He made a low sound as Jace's teeth worried at his skin.

"Not picks on him. I think Magnus tries to nudge him out of his shell a little," Alec said. "He blames everything on Magnus anyway." He groaned. "If I'm in the ROOM with them and they know I'm there, even if I'm not ... touching them at that exact moment, I'm still a part of things. So it's not just ... watching."

Alec returned the favor and bit at Jace's lip, and then at his jaw, letting Jace rock against him and pull him in closer.

Jace snickered. "There is definitely a crown somewhere, buried in a vault I bet," he teased. He made an interested little groan at the sound Alec made, chasing it by working on the other side of Alec's throat across his rune.

"He does seem exceedingly put out by existence somehow." He laughed a little. "Yeah. Doesn't mean you can't participate MORE, hmm? Can I talk you into watching me and Magnus sometime?"

Jace groaned Alec's name under his breath, wrapping his other arm around him to hang on a little tighter, more than happy to let Alec touch him however he wanted to. He tilted his head back, giving Alec better access, one hand sliding in his hair, so he could catch Alec's mouth again for another kiss, licking the taste of him from his lips.

Alec rolled his eyes. "If there were, Izzy would have found it," he said, laugh turning into a soft groan when Jace bit at the other side of his throat.

"Going off precedent, I'm guessing he blames it for Magnus," Alec said, smirking. He snorted. "I was trying to imply that earlier and it kept going right over your head. But I could watch that. Is that all you'd want me to do? Watch?"

Alec answered the kiss, hand sliding into Jace's hair, tugging gently to tilt his head back a little more so he could kiss his way down Jace's throat too once he broke away from his mouth. His other hand slipped further beneath Jace's shirt, running along his side. "Do you want more than this?" he asked, nipping again and then adding quietly. "I could suck you off, if you want." Despite how much practice he might have here, he was still Alec, and his cheeks were still hot saying it, no matter how much he wanted to do it.

Jace definitely liked that, and moved his mouth down back to the hollow of Alec's throat, licking the skin there.

Jace groaned. "You should have just said it then. I am clearly not great at getting your implications yet. Or I'm just not used to you actually flirting with me," he admitted. He leaned over and nipped Alec's earlobe. "I definitely want that. I'd definitely want you to do more though. Want you to, you know, actually participate. Actively. With hands, and mouth and other things."

Alec touching him like that made Jace melt, and he shivered as Alec slipped his hand under Jace's shirt. "Always want more with you," Jace said, low and thrumming with want. "Fuck. Alec. Yeah. Yeah. If you want. If I get my turn after?"

"I thought I DID," Alec said, laugh throaty, turning into another of those soft groans when Jace bit his ear. "I want that too." Jace was his parabatai, his other half. Alec wanted to share all the things and people he loved with Jace, let him have the same measures of happiness Alec had managed to find here.

Maybe not John, though. At least not now, not until the two of them liked one another better.

"Always?" Alec asked. "Even when you're arguing with me?" He threw Jace a quick grin and then kissed him again. "You can have your turn too."

Alec kissed him once more, and then pushed himself up, scooting back until he was straddling Jace's legs instead, and then tugging him to sit up so Alec could tug off his shirt, run hands down his bare chest instead.

"Clearly NOT, or I'd have already been tugging you out of your clothes, sweetheart," Jace chided him, then making a pleased sound at his agreement. "Oh excellent, I'm pretty sure Magnus will be happy to let us play."

"Yes. Always. Even when I'm arguing with you." He returned the kiss, nipping his lower lip. "You're pretty when you're mad," he teased.

He lifted his arms to make it easier for Alec to get his shirt off and groaned as he felt hands on his bare skin, arching his back up a little. It was, he had to admit, pretty hot to see Alec taking the initiative like this.

"I was pretty obvious," Alec insisted, but he laughed. "I don't think he'll mind. But you should be with just him first. Get to know each other."

He rolled his eyes. "You're full of it," Alec said. Alec was learning that more people than he realized found him attractive, but pretty he still didn't really see. Especially not if he was in the process of being pissed off.

Most of the time, Alec was content to be led rather than lead. But as he gained confidence, he got more assertive. And with Jace, it had been Alec who said they should be slow, and it was Alec who had other commitments and was complicated. So it felt like he should be the one to make the first real moves, so it was easier for Jace to know what was allowed, and good - the way Magnus and John had done for Alec.

He skimmed his hands up Jace's chest and down again, thumbs flicking over his nipples before they moved down to let his fingers trace their run again. Alec leaned in to kiss him again before pushing up off of him. He stood beside the bed, wrapping hands around Jace's legs and tugging him to the edge a bit more, and then kneeling between them, reaching to start opening his pants, cheeks still pink but hands steady and sure.

Jace laughed at that. "You were the least obvious ever. You were being vague and weird. There was like four different people that part of the conversation could be about." He hummed. "Fine. But let me make it clear. I want to have sex with you. I want to have sex with him. At some point, I would like to have regular sex with both of you. Also, I would like to be completely fucking OWNED by Him and Caliban, because Angel, that's a hot idea."

Jace growled a little, and shifted to lightly grip Alec's chin, making him look Jace in the eyes. "Hey. You're pretty. Even when you're mad, I think you're pretty, because you get all fired up and your jaw gets all set and your shoulders are braced and then I want to climb you like a fucking tree. I'm allowed to say you're pretty. Because you are."

Alec was distracting as hell though, touching Jace, running his hands over him like he was learning every inch of his body, finding what spots made Jace react. The thumbs on his nipples made him hiss in a breath and his spine arch, and when Alec pushed away, he whined out loud, reaching for him with a pronounced pout. Then Alec was manhandling him and oh, that was okay, he could put up with that. That was good. "God, you can tug me around like that any time you want," he muttered.

"I ASKED if you wanted to sleep with ONLY him, how was that not obvious?" Alec complained. "That wasn't vague. And if it's weird, you knew I was that kind of weird already and still wanted me, so that's your fault." He smiled though. "You'll have to work out that last one with him and Caliban. But the parts that have to do with me sound good."

He was surprised when Jace caught his chin, and then just smiled. "I don't see it," he admitted. "But if you say so. If you try to climb me when I mad at you though, I'll probably hit you."

Alec laughed, startled, at that mutter. "Yeah?" he asked, peeking up at Jace and then leaning in, kissing at his chest instead, licking across his nipple, since he'd seen how he reacted before.

He straightened again though, finishing getting Jace's pants open and then pushing them down his hips, nudging Jace to lift up enough that Alec could tug them off entirely so Alec could see him. He made an appreciative sound once he had, eyes just sliding slowly over him, and then he wrapped his hand loosely around Jace's cock, stroking once.

"You already KNEW I wanted to sleep with you and him, oh my Angel, Alec." He hummed. "Maybe. Once I get more confident with Magnus and know him better first. Much better," he teased, wriggling his eyebrows.

"I say so. And you hit me, I hit you back and then we're going to be making out, so I think I'll risk it." Alec very rarely got mad at Jace anyways. They had arguments, but they never lasted long, they were too entwined with each other in every other way.

"Hell yeah," Jace said. "It's hot. It's why I told you that sparring was gonna be problematic for us now," he laughed. Then Alec was stripping him down and he found himself flushing, unable to help it. This was better than that first day in the City, when everything had been so awkward and they'd been so hesitant with each other. But it was the first time Alec had really got him fully naked with... intent, really. So he watched Alec's face, and relaxed when Alec liked what he saw, and then he was hissing in a breath and rolling his hips up as Alec just... stroked him, brazen and bold and fuck that was hot. "All yours," he told Alec throatily.

"But not if you wanted to at the same time!" Alec said, laughing. He kissed Jace quickly. "You don't have to rush. Do what you want, when you want."

Alec's anger tended to burn hot and fast anyway - he usually was just grumpy and resentful and pushed down anything else. So when he did snap, it was big and overly dramatic, and burned out quickly. "You're not going to win arguments by making out EVERY time," he warned.

Jace naked stole most of his attention though, and Alec licked his lips without realizing when Jace's voice when throaty like that. "Yeah," he said, soft and low, hand moving again. Just a lazy slow slide of his hand, thumb sliding over the slit the way he'd done to Jace's nipple before.

"I am not rushing. I am telling you what I want, so you know when you're ready to try it. Rushing is flirting with Caliban," he smirked. "But I can't really blame myself for that one, so."

Jace smirked. "No, but I'm going to enjoy trying, so you should probably just learn to like it," he told Alec smugly.

That. That look right there. That was the look he'd wanted seared across his memory, focused on him, like Alec wanted to just... devour him. He whimpered a little, hips jerking again, reaching his hands up above his head and stretching his body out for Alec's enjoyment.

Alec laughed. "I know. I just meant ... I told you the stuff I've done so you'd know that you're not ... wrong for what you want. But it's not like I just got here and a week later I was doing all of that. It took me a long time. So don't rush when you don't have to. You never know when the city will do that for you anyway."

"I guess I can live with it," Alec decided.

He could live with this too, the way Jace whimpered and sort of showed off for him. Alec had long ago learned to resent Jace's ability to constantly look like he was posing and be beautiful just ... standing around. But he appreciates it again now, when he's allowed to look and touch and want.

"You look good, Jace," Alec told him quietly. His other hand slid along a muscled thigh as he stroked, and Alec leaned in, mouth kissing at his stomach, his other thigh. And then Alec leaned in, swallowing the head of his cock and groaning softly.

Jace tilted his head, considering. "No. I don't feel like I have to. I just... if it's really okay, and it's not a sign that I'm, you know, fucked up. There's so MUCH I want to try, Alec," Jace said with a laugh. "I'd rather try it on my own than have the city make me do it anyways."

Jace snorted. "I figured you could."

Jace made a low sound as Alec looked at him, and dropped one hand to brush over Alec's shoulder, his whole body shivering when Alec's mouth moved on his body and then a sudden, bitten off curse when Alec swallowed him down, trying to go still and not buck his hips up.

"It's not a sign of anything," Alec promised. "I know it's hard to believe that though. It takes time too. I'm still working at it."

Alec curved his shoulder toward Jace's hand, encouraging him to touch as he sucked at his dick. Alec was starting to get enough practice at this that he felt like he knew what he was doing, and he kind of wanted to show that to Jace, to give him something good since it was their first time doing this.

He stroked his hand over what he hadn't swallowed down, but took in a little more, tongue pressing against the slit, swirling around the head as he sucked, bobbing slowly on Jace, taking a a little more of him in each time, free hand just touching him - petting anywhere he could reach.

"I know." He paused. "I mostly know that now. Some days better than others," he admitted. "But if so.. than there's a lot of things I want to try and do, and explore." He grinned a little crookedly. "And we both know I'm the one more likely to jump head first into things."

Jace's fingers curled over Alec's shoulder, and then he half sat up, bracing himself on his other hand, so he could reach Alec better, and watch him better, groaning as he got a really good look at Alec's lips wrapped around his cock. He whined a little as Alec teased at his slit with his tongue, shuddering. "Alec," he groaned, his voice raspy with want, his fingers sliding to the hair at the back of Alec's neck, stroking there. "So good to me, sweetheart."

Alec's still not as good at this as John, or Magnus. But he's good enough that they like when he does it. And he's good enough that he can feel Jace staring, even with his eyes half shut and his attention focused on what he's doing, and he can hear the hunger in Jace's voice.

Alec takes him a little deeper, then backs off again, eyes opening to look up at Jace, love and want in his eyes. He held Jace's gaze this time as he bobbed back down to take Jace deeper, lips tight against his shaft as he sucked.

Jace didn't have nearly as much experience in this as Alec might think to make a lot of comparisons. Most of the women he'd slept with, he'd been trying to impress, not have get him off, and none of the men he'd been with had done this for him, so as far as Jace was concerned, this was fucking stellar.

Plus, it was Alec. It was Alec, which meant no matter how awkward or halting or whatever it might be, it was fucking perfect. Especially when Alec looked up at him like that and Jace could feel him take more, and his fingers tightened in Alec's hair. "Best Alec," he said, sounding a little broken, as his chest clenched up, unable to help it as he rocked his hips, slow and cautious. "You should see how pretty you look right now, Fuck."

Alec laughed around him, sound of it vibrating against his cock a little. That best Alec coming back again like this was just ... funny and touching and hot, all at the same time.

He pulled off just a little when Jace rocked into his mouth, giving him room to move a bit without Alec choking. Jace called him pretty again, and Alec just smiled a little around him, not stopping, hand sliding up to pinch at Jace's nipple a little.

Jace made a sort of strangled sound, not having any idea that someone laughing with his cock in his mouth could feel so good. It didn't seem like it should, but it did. "Angel... Alec.."

Jace froze a little anyways when Alec pulled off, not sure if he'd fucked up by moving. But Alec wasn't stopping, so he just made sure to keep his hips still this time, no matter how much self control it took. Playing with his nipples was fucking cheating though, and he made a whimper of sound. How had he not known how sensitive his own body was??
