Jace was sitting at the table in the kitchen, a plate of Moo shu pork in front of him.
"Meow." Church came into the room.
Jace ignored the podgy feline and continued his assault on his food.
The blue cat scrambled up on the table and sat in front of Jace's plae of moo shu pork. With his teeth Church grabbed the last piece of moo shu pork off of the plate.
Jace's eyes narrowed. "You are fat enough. Now give me back the pork."
Church bounded out of the room chased by Jace who stopped short when he saw certain someone at the doorway.
There stood Simon in all his 'vampric glory'.
"I can see it now." Simon dramatized. "Jace Herondale, the great Shadowhunter loses his dinner to an obese cat!"
"…Aren't vampires not allowed inside the Institute?"
"It's amazing what runes can do."
"Clary!" Jace yelled.
"Jace, I didn't do it, I swear."
"I don't care about the bloodsucker…I need more moo shu pork."

As for Simon being able to enter the Institute…the mark of Cain is a powerful rune.
