"'I want what's best for him, and he seems to disappear into his darkness, like he's hiding in a place that doesn't want my light.'
'Then why not offer him your darkness?'" (p. 244).
"...it hurts to hear you talk about [the Underworld] like it's evil. Death isn't evil. It's just... death." (p. 349).
"'Sometimes I have to remind myself of that,' [Nico] said. 'That people did love me when I was younger.'" (p. 374).
"Will had heard love described in so many dramatic, bizarre ways over the years, but no one had described it like this: It's like drifting down a river of pain and knowing you are safe." (p. 432)
"To be alive in the world once more... It is beautiful." (p. 445).
"No one had ever loved him like Will did, and that was no longer terrifying. How could it be? How could acceptance and respect and desire be anything but the best things for Nico?" (p. 461).
"The future held hope. And he clung to it." (p. 462).
Moderate: Body horror, Vomit, Injury/Injury detail, Murder, Violence, Death, Grief, Medical content, Mental illness, and Blood

"I want the best for him, and he seems to disappear into his darkness, like he’s hiding in a place where he doesn’t want my light."
"Then why not offer him your darkness?"
