I ADORE THE BOTH OF THEM - Tumblr Posts

Despite the very dark themes of Ninth House, somehow Darlington and Alex are such a comfort couple. Like I love waking up in the morning and thinking that Alex would be proud of me for waking up at all and Darlington would love me for cleaning my desk and making a to-do list.

If I pull an all-nighter, Darlington would want me to take breaks and Alex would be equally frustrated with me about my thick books but still supportive of me making progress.

If I catch a cold, Alex would want me to be buried under blankets and warm and Darlington would make me try some fancy brandy to help me stop sneezing.

He would want me to read more books, learn that new language, drink tea from that fancy cup and give it my all and Alex would want me to be unbothered but still love my friends. She would want me to have enough strength to move forward and leave hurtful things in the past.
