[Once he doesn't feel like he's going to pass out from hunger, Alec moves the plate over where Roman can reach it, giving him an apologetic smile.]
Fighting plus fast metabolism. There's ways I can keep going without eating, but it'd ruin that pacing.
[He appreciates that Roman isn't pretending that they know what the threat is or saying that it will be a short siege when they don't know what those things are or how many there are.]
I'm not going to intentionally burn out but if it's a choice between that and keeping the wards up, I'll let Magnus take as much as he needs.
[Magnus wouldn't take that step, but hopefully they'd find others that could 'power' the wards other than the Lightwood siblings.]
We might be able to get an idea of numbers or set up methods of attack that aren't going to wear out our fighters. Izzy can think up something if we give her enough information to work with.
