"You've reached the fabulous High Warlock of Brooklyn, Magnus Bane. If it's important, leave your name and number and I'll get back to you. If it's not, then stop wasting my time."
Yeah. [ four times, but he doesn't say that. it sounds crazy — excessive even, but given the circumstances, alec doesn't care. ]
I just saw her the other day. She couldn't have gone far, right?
[ unless she met with sebastian thanks to that plan she cooked up with that guy she was talking about, anders. the only other noise on his end is the gritty sound of boots on dirt. but he's skirting the line of a meltdown now, worry eating its way into his tone. ]
She said she'd call before she did anything with Sebastian. She didn't call, so there's no way she was with him.
[ there's a stretch of silence on alec's end and his footsteps have ceased, the scrape of dirt no longer audible. he's been trying his damndest not to immediately jump to blaming sebastian, not to hunt him down and demand to know what he's done with his sister. ]
If he has, I'll kill him.
[ his words are definitely devoid of something and are hushed at best, though no less angry. it could be easy to hold onto the anger, to ride it out with what he already feels towards sebastian. it could also get him in trouble with anatole's laws. ]
I've searched the ruins as far as I'm able. I'll do it until I find her.
That's just one possibility, though. He might have nothing to do with it.
[ As doubtful as he feels that is. It's like Sebastian has been far too quiet lately, and Magnus doesn't like what it could mean. Finally, he manages to locate his jacket and shoo his cat off of it. ]
At the edge of the ruins. [ at least his answer is quick this time. he's been there since he first noticed she was missing, combing them as well as he could. ]

[ ramble ramble ramble. ]

[ Hopefully not too far. But it wouldn't be hard for Isabelle to get herself into trouble in such a short period of time. ]
That's not necessarily true. Just because she didn't go find him doesn't me he hasn't gone to find her.
[ He doesn't like the idea of either of those things, though. Not at all. ]
