You know what's hilarious? That scene in Hell Bent after Darlington comes back semi-human in the end.
Alex has been worried about their reunion since the first book (is he mad at her? does he hate her? does he judge her? can he forgive her?). Add to all that the fact that she'd just barely been killed and saw Darlington rip a demon apart with his bare hands. Darlington comes back down the stairs (clothed) and Alex is chilling eating dry cereal out of the box. Like, the maggots from the demon are still there.
It doesn't stop there though. They meet. The tension, the anticipation about what they're going to say to each other builds. And what breaks it? Alex offering the box to Darlington. And the first thing he does after accepting? Spit it out because of how gross it is and question her eating habits. Peak comedy.
No tears, no questions, no serious discussions, just banter. Love to see it.
Bonus points to this happening after Darlington thinking how the fact that she's a murderer doesn't even matter anymore and how beautiful she has always been. Love to see it x2
this is how i flirt
Hi, I made a very niche meme.
He was both:)
is hell bent darlington going to be a pathetic wet meow meow boy or is he going to be a fucked up demon that has done everything and anything he could to survive or will it be a secret third thing (both)
I think one of the most profound forms of love is "I'll try that, for you. I may not like it, but I'll try it."
It's a confused middle-aged man in a pottery class, whose daughter is helping him with his clay's plasticity. It's a kid scrunching up their brow while listening to their mom's favorite music, trying to figure out why she likes it. It's a girlfriend who says "Yes, I'll go with you" and her girlfriend cheering and buying a second ticket for a con. It's a friend half dragging another friend through an aquarium, the one being dragged laughing and calling out "Wait, wait, I know we're here for the exhibit, but I haven't been here! Slow down!"
It's being willing to spend some of your time trying something new because it makes someone you love happy.

Ninth House Spoilers!
Okay but,
βShe was Dante. He was Virgil. [...] Later, sheβd looked them up and discovered that Virgil had been Danteβs guide as he descended into hell.β
I think itβs poetic that ninth house ended with Dante (Alex) on a quest to go to Hell to get Virgil (Darlington) back.
