   Summary

   One of these days he’s going to break, Alec recalls Izzy’s words on patrol a few nights ago, he’s going to break and you’ll have to be there to pick up the pieces. Are you ready for that?

   No, he thinks faintly. But it’s Magnus and there’s not a single thing he wouldn’t do for him.

   ***
   Magnus is suffocating but Alec helps him to breathe through it.
