He wasn't. Out there was a demon, a seelie, something that had escaped from the Gard and he needed to track it down and bring it back for imprisonment. It was better than the alternative; dealing with the guilt that came with knowing some of the things he'd done while with Jonathan. Even though he knew he didn't have a choice, even though he knew that it was the rune that bound them together, he still blamed himself for the lives that they'd taken. Who else was to blame? No one and Jace knew it. Just like he knew that if he'd stayed dead at Lake Lyn that things might've been better for everyone. But things hadn't turned out that way and he knew that at least hunting down those that escaped from the Gard or those that were willingly breaking the Accords was better than just sitting around on his ass. Especially when he was getting his sister to help him in the process. "I'm not. I know we're close and I'm not stopping until we get it."

“You never let up do you Izzy?” Alec knew she’d decided to follow behind him even after he had tried to get her to leave him alone. Sure had mostly been an shut in inside his room all weekend but wasn’t going to talk about it. Wondering if he could make his way outside,away from everything. 

        She’s huddled over a piece of paper with a pencil in hand. Her eyes frantically dart from the page to the person before her. “Hold still. It’s hard for me to get the colors of the shadows right when you move.” 

“You talk, talk and talk. And I’m listening, listening and listening. And it’s clear. Bu I have a question, are you kidding right now?”
