"You guessed? You must have been pretty sure, considering you could have killed me.""I was ninety percent sure.""I see,"Clary said. There must have been something in her voice, because he turned to look at her. Her hand cracked across his face, a slap that rocked him back on his heels.

"Declarations of love amuse me. Especially when unrequited."
"Magnus, standing by the door, snapped his fingers impatiently. "Move it along, teenagers.

Magnus growled. The growl sounded like "Get out."
