I think I'll wait to hear from Rafa himself! Soon, I hope. [ No offense to Vex, of course. It's less to do with a worry the information isn't accurate and more a desire just to talk to Rafa again.

He hopes Alec gets to talk to him before long. ]

Oh, I'm sure he's not at all spoiled, [ Magnus says, and he might as well be inspecting his nails innocently while doing so. ] You'll find a comfortable and safe place for him soon, I'm sure of that as well.

Actually, I'm hoping we all will.

[ To the latter bit, the comment about visiting and beads, Magnus nods. ] It would appear the universe has a certain fondness for us. Would you call that good luck or bad?
