"Really?" Alec perked up, looking almost child like in his excitement for his friend. And for Magnus, too, since Vex has become like family to him. To Alec as well, if he's honest. Kind of funny to reflect on, but he's much too pleased with things as they are now to pick at it. "Congrats to us, then."
He saluted with two fingers, then ate the rest of the graham cracker, wiping his hand on the face of his pants with a chuckle.
"'Mix of both? A blessing and a curse," he said, picking his stick up again not to make himself a s'more but to stoke the embers of the fire a little, watching sparks float into the air and then burn out. When he turns his gaze to Vex again, he's a little more serious, but still open. He's curious. Vex has lived much longer than Alec has, so his perception of time and immortality is already much different.

"How does it feel, living that long?"
