“I just rely on natural talent,“ said Adrian, strolling up to the start of the Dragon’s Lair. “When you have such a wealth of it to draw from, the danger comes from having too much.”

god remember when sydney and adrian were making out and his fangs accidentally cut her lip just a bit and adrian was like “and i knew in that moment i could have bitten her, and she would have let me” but he DOESNT even though there’s this intrinsic part of him that wants to, because he knows it could be something sydney would regret down the line and he respects and loves her too much to do something she might regret
or how about when he jokingly talks about how the world isnt ready for their children, because with their brains, good looks, and the natural athleticism of a dhampire, theyd be too awesome and adrian momentarily worries that she’ll be disgusted by the thought of having non-human kids with him, but that worry is dashed away and she speaks about it so nonchalantly and damn he loves her SO MUCH
OH and remember when he’d rescued her from re-education and when they were in that vegas hotel room, sydney wakes up and freaks out because she wakes up in the dark and thinks she’s back there again, but adrian turns on the lights and calms her down and it hurts his heart so much to see her like that, but he tells her he’ll leave the lights on and im pretty damn sure he would sleep with the lights on for the rest of his life if it meant she didn’t have to fear that she was back in re-education
and let’s not forget how when he was in the throes of spirit and he forgot who she was, it was still her fear and worry and familiarity that made him lay off it before he could lose himself to it any further, and then he remembered her and decided right then and there that nothing, not even his magic, was worth forgetting himself or sydney or them and he decides he’ll go back on his mood stabilizers because his love for her is more important than anything (hell, that’s why he went on them the first time)
they’re just. SO GOOD YALL and they love each other so much and care about each other more than anything and it’s jsut so perfect
The center didn’t hold.
i have this hc that adrian calls sydney ‘princess’ when shes cranky and then makes her coffee
