(Disclaimer: I only watched the show, so my typing is based on the TV show portrayal of Alec) Si - Obvious Si dom, probably the most obvious in the whole show. Very traditional and by the book. Always wants to follow to protocol even if it means, for example, not letting Magnus live in the institute with him. Anything remotely weird happens in the shadow world = Report to the clave, because this is what he was always told to do. Si dom because his first reflex is to follow what has worked and what he was taught to do since he was a kid. Te - Alec is a leader, he also sees himself as one. The decisions he makes are for the good of the institute or the people he cares about. He sets aside his emotions to make the best and most objective decision as the head of the institute. He doesn't speculate about other options when trying to find a solution to a problem, most of the time, he already has a solution and is ready to take action. Fi - His Fi is definitely there, but Alec chooses to not use it most of the time, probably due to how he was raised: Emotions clouds judgment. The best example of when he used Fi was when he decided to kiss Magnus at his marriage, he did what felt right to him at this moment without thinking about the consequences. Alec values tradition and family and strongly believes in them. Ne - He doesn't allow new changes to disrupt his life, for example, when Clary appeared. He was very unwelcoming to her because she was a big change: a mundane with shadowhunter powers, she's getting more of Jace and Izzy's attention, she's bringing problem to his institute. His Ne starts to appear more when he's with Magnus, a Ne dom user, for example, trying new things: restaurants, activities, etc.
