Alec’s eyes raised to the aforementioned clock. He’d barely noticed. Work tended to distract him from such matters. But now that he was home and he’d gotten caught up on things, he could attend to these matters. His fingers moved through Magnus’s hair, curling around freshly-washed and dried locks. “Couldn’t you just magic it to work again?” Alec mused aloud, his mouth lowering toward his partner’s ear.
“ probably, ” magnus breathed out, eyes fixated on the fixture that seemed to torment him so. “ maybe I don’t want to. ” maybe he wanted to pretend the rest of the world was as stuck in time as he was. maybe he wanted the rest of the world to suffer with it the way he had since he’d stopped aging. maybe he was just being lazy, it was never easy to tell with him. “ how was work? ”
