“So far," said Magnus, "life seems to me to be a matter of choosing love, over and over, even knowing that it makes you vulnerable, that it might hurt you later. Or even sooner.

Nico had called on the earth to swallow them up, and then he'd run away- terrified of his own powers, and his own emotions.”
