Ragnor Fell, and Catarina Loss sat comfortably in the suite reserved for special guests at Pandemonium. Magnus gave them special treatment, they always reminded him that he never needed to do so but Magnus wouldn't allow them to think otherwise. Each Warlock found different ways to occupy their time. Catarina liked working with humans in a hospital. Ragnor felt at home teaching college students. Despite their different ways of dealing with the world, they made sure they got together often, they may not be family by blood but they were a family none the less.

When Magnus left the suite, which he often did, they just assumed he was taking care of business. Catarina noticed the familiar and Magnus, she leaned forward a little while still listening to Ragnor complain about a trying student taking his course in literature. As Ragnor was about to tell another story, she pointed to where the pair were standing. Ragnor gazed at his old friend and the newcomer he was standing with, he thought his friend liked pretty things and this one had all the features that appealed to Magnus so he wasn't surprised. He watched Magnus gesture and move toward his usual path to the suite looking back ever so often to see if the stranger would follow, that was when Ragnor realized Magnus had his magical being. Ragnor nodded to Catarina who had a smile on her face and they waited for their friend and his familiar to join them.

Magnus was pleased to see the tall dark haired male follow him. They hadn't really spoken outside of saying hello but he was looking forward to getting to know him. He was having a hard time containing his magic, it simply wanted to reach out and embrace the male but it was too soon. He hoped his suite would provide a comfortable environment for them to at least get beyond 'hello'.

Alec was nervous, but excited as well. His instincts told him to follow the Warlock, that he was the person he was looking for, but he had been looking so long, his resolved wasn't as strong. He had focused on others finding their other halves that he was feeling a little overwhelmed at the prospect of finding his Warlock. Despite all the thoughts swirling through his head, he reminded himself that his sister would tell him he was over thinking things. It was time trust himself and his instincts.

There was something about the Warlock, and his inner cat was curious. He scoffed at himself what was the saying about curiosity killing the cat? He laughed inwardly but knew he was close to a being that could change his loneliness, he wasn't desperate but by this time in his life he had hoped fate would grace him. He was no longer wanting to deny himself any longer. Alec followed the Warlock to the balcony suite.

There were two settees in the balcony suite near each other, Ragnor and Catarina were seated near each other on one and Magnus motioned tall, dark and handsome to a settee near his friends in the balcony. The Warlock made sure he was in between his friends and the familiar, he didn't want to spook him. The room was more isolated from the club dulling the music and making the atmosphere more private. Before offering a seat to the cat, Magnus extended his hand, "I'm Magnus Bane, and these are my friends Ragnor and Catarina." He smiled warmly at tall, dark and handsome and waited for his response.

Alec took his hand, "Alec." He nodded at the other two people in greeting and then looked around, unsure of what to do next. Magnus gestured for him to take a seat on the open settee. Once he seated himself, Magnus joined him.

"Want a drink? My club makes a delightful martini." Magnus smiled in encouragement.

"Uh … yeah … I guess, sure." Alec didn't know if he would like a martini but, he would give it a try.

Magnus smiled and their drinks arrived, taking a sip he inquired, "do you have a last name?"

Alec coughed, he had no idea his throat would burn so much from one taste, as he gathered what he could of his voice, "Lightwood."

"I can get you something else, maybe an IPA or a domestic beer?" Magnus worried about the drink choice.

"No …. no, this is … uhm .. great. Thank you." Alec made a face with his next sip but managed to not cough. Not knowing what to do next, he glanced around the club.

Catarina leaned into Magnus to whisper "he is adorable Magnus," she was amused by the entire exchange. Magnus gave her a glare in an attempt to tell her to behave herself. She laughed, Ragnor looked bored but studied the male near his friend. Finally determining that this familiar was exactly what Magnus Bane needed in his life.

Magnus whispered back, "more than adorable, sexy, pretty, mesmerizing …" Catarina cut him off by softly slapping at his arm.

"Be yourself, be charming." Cat then leaned back on the settee settling for what would she thought would be an entertaining evening.

With a roll of his eyes, "I'm always charming."

Cat helped Magnus break the ice with the familiar by making small talk, the unimportant topics allowed Alec to relax and they managed to get him to smile and laugh which made Magnus happy. The Warlock had to admit to himself, he was already smitten. His magic was humming with contentment and it was all he could do not to be more forward with Alec Lightwood.

Alec's nervousness slowly dissipated and found himself comfortable with the Warlock and his friends which he could tell were warlocks as well. Their stories of adventures, getting into various amusing situations and anecdotal points made him relax and laugh a few times. He would stare at Magnus from time to time and blush when the Warlock would gift him with a smile which seemed more sexual than needed but the familiar didn't mind the attention. His magic was telling him that Warlock Bane was his and it helped him relax further, enough to get a phone number and a date.

Izzy and Lydia enjoyed the club while still looking at Alec from time to time. When they noticed he was having fun, they smirked at each other. Their plan worked and neither lady could contain the excitement for the eldest Lightwood. They also decided they couldn't wait to question him the next day about the evening.
