"That's a mango." Simon stared at Jace. Sometimes it really is like Shadowhunters were from an alien planet.

"Tomato soup? You want tomato soup and a mango for dinner?"
Jace shrugged. "I don't really care about food.”

"I think," Jace said, "that she asked if she could touch my mango."
"She said that?"
Jace shrugged. "Yeah, then she gave me her number.”
