The Darkling: In 20 years, I guarantee you, I will be Alina's second husband.

Alina: What happened to my first husband?

The Darkling: Nothing you can prove.

[in a super important Ravkan meeting]

The King: The Second Army is far too intimidating compared to the First. We must rectify this.

The Darkling: And what, exactly, do you have in mind?

Nikolai: *leans forward* I have an idea where they can be both dangerous and…cute. 

The Darkling: Cute?

The King: Go on, son. I trust in your decision.

date a boy who can’t sit still. date a boy who’s a mechanical genius. date a boy who respects your autonomy. date a boy who will always support you. date a boy with an asshole older brother. date a boy who fed a rival captain’s fingers to his dog. date a boy who is the Ravkan king. date nikolai lantsov.

[dregs-of-the-barrel]

it’s a shame alina didn’t choose the darkling in the end because can you imagine an absolute crack-headcanon scenario, in which inej and kaz meet darklina and are both super star-struck - inej because she’s meeting a saint and kaz because “hi, mr. darkling, i’m kaz brekker. big fan, been following your work for a while.”
