It’s heartbreaking to see him saying “fine, make me your villain.” I can see the tears in his eyes. For centuries, no one really understand his effort but saw him as the evil.
That's a direct quote from the book, and one they bring up a few more times. It's just as heartbreaking in the book, and Ben fucking NAILED it. He is the perfect Darkling casting, he understands the Darkling's deepest, complicated feelings better than probably any actor could. We really lucked out with him.
@@cassandra2289 the trilogy is "shadow and bone", if you mean the exact book in which the line is in then i cant help you, but im pretty sure its not in the first one
The chemistry, the way they look at each other, it’s impossible not to ship them! I need more Darklina in S2😭 This song was perfect for them! Beautiful edit
Ben Barnes is showing every bit of humanity that you don't see in the books for a villain. It’s kind of heartbreaking as he has an 'agenda' to save Grisha and a powerlust. 100's of years of pain has made the soft Aleksander disappear and then there are those special moments when Alina brings him back (his balance). Like when he was explaining the Ravka threats and got enveloped in emotional darkness in episode4 and Alina touched him/cancelled out the darkness and they were engulfed in a light bubble. She mirrored what he had said in an earlier episode without even realising it - 'You are not alone!' (For immortals thats a bid deal!). God he looked so relieved like he wanted to cry from so many years of pain -being close to someone finally who can be by his side. 🖤 Another example in the 'make me your villain' argument where Alina firmly stood her ground but made it clear in a very queen-like stance how they could have had a future together. She placed his hand on her chest as a reminder and you could see a glimpse of the old Aleksander reignite with her touch and the sadness and regret appear in the Darklings eyes.🖤 Alina is his equal and he has been in love with her all along. But like most fantasy dramas its PROBLEMATIC.
Pienso igual. Alexander se humaniza con Alina cerca. Es su eje, creo que siente algo verdadero hacia ella. Ojalá esta historia entre ellos termine bien, con ellos juntos, que no siga los libros. Seria una pena xq esta historia tal cual la hicieron en la serie me gusta más que los libros... Alexander tiene sus motivos para querer venganza, creo q Alina podría hacerlo desistir...amo esta pareja💕💕
@@monicaramirez1676 Ben Barnes es que se come al resto, y al otro chico también la verdad, en todos los sentidos, por eso queremos que estén Alexander y Alina juntos.
yeah that's what I thought so. He means well for their future (Alina and also the grisha), but he bear all those pains and responsible all alone and yet when he finally find his equal she cannot love him as much as he love her. I hope there's a redemption for he and Alina. (I don't read the book, fyi)
@@lailanoor2361 its a wait and see what Netflix will do with the show. The books i found somewhat disappointing and you will find alot of fanfiction on the internet as an escape from that.
Shadow and light complete each other. Without the darkness of shadow the light loses its purpose. I love how they complement each other. Darkling and alina are bound to be together. Her positivity will nullify his darkness and the nature will find it's balance.
Somehow I think the reason why I love it so much is because of the masculine and femenine enegy the whole darkness and light play out showcases, in a real relationship you need a balance
I wouldn't say he cares for her. Maybe he did about the healer in his past but not about Alina. But I really hope this fact changes and he can find love in his heart for someone again.
I need darklina.Please do not destroy my dream and put more scenes of Darklina in the series.! I will cry if that happens. This couple is more perfect than their own perfection.! Omg 🤍🖤😪
Everyone needs to darklina 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Still I have hope for the other seasons .. I felt the chemistry in kissing scene of the episode 5. Im sure of that the everyone else just felt it too. please dont let us down . Darklina forever,☀️🌑
I honestly don’t care about the ending of the ships but I don’t like that she lost her powers and we still don’t know how she got her powers etc. I think there’s still so many unanswered questions
this song represents their connection PERFECTLY this edit was absolutely everything the darklina fandom wished for and more! i literally cant help but ship them look at their chemistry?!!!??!?!? and the tears in ben barnes's eyes??? like jessie and ben really UNDERSTOOD the assignment 🌗💛
This editing is seriously above average! The song and the visuals go together so well! I love how for the first chorus, you make Alina’s light reveal itself. It’s a gorgeous fit with the swell of the song!
2:05 i think this scene is a sign that maybe they will end up together. I mean the way she just summon light and his darkness fade away. Maybe she will do the same with his heart. I hope so. I really want them to end up happy together.
The fact that they cast such a hottie as Darkling makes me wanna tear & burn the book bc I know what's the endgame...Netflix you've our full support to change the canon😅😅

@@iva1993ful I agree. I’ve mainly been seeing people in support of darklina so I have a little inkling that the producers might go towards that way in the second season

Darkling was never a bad guy. Yes made wrong decisions but not unreasonably. He was saving and protecting Grisha. At the end of the books he shows it in the most self-secrificing way possible ♥️i respect him so much more than her best friend
His mother told him Your true name is written here,” she said tapping his chest. “Tattooed on your heart. You don’t let just anyone read it.” He meets Alinla and "please call me aleksander "😍😍😍
omg, the best edit....goes from knowing each other to liking each other to loving each other to hating each other. the scenes have been put according to the lyrics and the ending is perfect.omg I love this
They said they are not gonna follow books so much after season 1, so we need huuge amount of love for darklina. And maybe some petition (for BOTH Darkling slowly redeeming himself and darklina as a endgame), so many people watch these vids and read comments, we could get a big amount of signatures, haha!
As someone who hasn't read the books, but I have read a lot of spoilers... like I get he is the bad guy in the book, but literally the series give us some hints that he actually kind of cares ... like maybe it's just me . Great edit by the way! I loved it !
Same here like in the book it doesn't give us the pov of him but here it has given a deeper look to his character like why he's the way now he is please make these two together
He is extremely complicated and conflicted in the books. Ben nails him as the actor. He wants Alina's power, but he also knows she is the only one who could ever understand him and he feels as if he is finally not alone. His obsession with her hurts and kills a lot of people and he may be brutal, but it is clear he still cares for and desires her in a way that goes beyond wanting her power. He wants HER to want him too, to come to him willingly. The end of the books make it more clear that he knows that without her, he is completely and utterly alone again. And in the books, she knows that he is the only person that will ever truly understand her, too.
Darklina has the POTENTIAL to give us a proper lovers to enemies to lovers/enemies to lovers story. They can be the 🔥BADASS COUPLE🔥 ! I know the darkling is very bad and toxic and manipulative,basically THE VILLAIN and shipping darklina is like morally wrong but you know what- it’s fictional,COMPLETELY FICTIONAL! So I ship them because I feel like they belong to each other and have this bond like no other. I shipped them in the books too and in the show I know they hurried up because there was less time/were less episodes but still loved them and I cannot deny their BEAUTIFUL chemistry 😭.. Also they are interesting and fun to watch. Netflix NEEDS TO CHANGE THE ENDING AND THE ENDGAME like they already changed SO MUCH OF THE THINGS so like please 🥺🌘☀️🖤
Typically I prefer closer adaptations to the books that movies/shows are based on but for Shadow and Bone, absolutely want them to change Alina and the Darkling ending. The actors Ben and Jessica have way too much chemistry that pairing them with anyone else would be unbelievable.
Feeling the pain off this ship crashing and burning to the ground all over again!! Darklina is just so beautiful! 😪😪 The way Ben and Jessie being these characters to life, you just can't help but want to see them together 😑 Gorgeous edit to this song! I think I'll watch it again and dream of what could've been..
Alina and Aleksander are like two sides of the same coin...Forever connected. I haven't read the books but the Netflix show has shown so much depth in his character and showing his backstory really shows that he had reasons for what he did, he really was trying to protect his people. You could tell that he didn't actually mean to create the fold it came flowing out from his immense pain and anger from his years of never-ending persecution and loss and took on a life of its own. I don't think he is 100% pure evil at all, yes he has done many evil things, but I believe that no one is beyond redemption and it would be really good if the series played this out... You could see that he did have genuine feelings for Alina, it wasn't all manipulation. It would be so good if they would look more at their connection in season 2 and that inspite of her better judgement Alina would start to understand him and care for him It was clear in the kiss scenes between them that significant changes were made from the books - she kissed him first, and then in the next scene he stopped and asked her if she was sure... That clearly shows he cares about what she wanted. He is such an intriguing character with so many layers to him and I hope Netflix will continue to give us that and not end up making him some one dimensional villain (like it seems he was in the books) A redemption arc is what he needs. I know that some one else commented that will never happen because their needs to be an ultimate villain for the story to make sense ... I think that is true, there does need to be a villain.. But why can't they bring in another rival for his power?? I know it would be totally different to the books but plenty of other series have totally deviated from the original books. apparently the author said in the past that she doesn't want to promote a Darklina love story... I can understand that as the 'woke' generation will be all worried that it would send a bad example to teenage girls... But come on... Teenage girls realise this is fantasy! It's not trying to reflect reality! And everyone who has ever read a book knows that the complicated 'bad guy' is always the more interesting love interest than the faithful good guy!! Speaking of Mal, apparently they have changed his character in the show a bit and made him nicer, he doesn't seem to have a single flaw now (in the books he was possessive and a bit of a prat at times) but now his character in the show is actually pretty bland I think... I know it's cheesy but there is potential that Alina's light could save Aleksander from himself and start to let go of the bitterness and revenge that has blighted his existence for so long! I really hope they explore this possibility because it makes much more interesting storytelling I think! the typical archetypal villain role has been done to death! Let's see a more multidimensional character who is capable of change because of allowing love to enter his heart again after centuries of pushing it away! Also, at the end of the season, yes The Darkling went too far, killed a lot of people and treated Alina terribly but he has a warped viewpoint on how to handle things because he is so used to being betrayed. As they approached he knew Zlatan would kill them all, he was really taking the only option he thought he could at that point and he has sadly let the thirst for power consume him. I really do not think he is beyond redemption though! I hope he can be saved somehow... Please Netflix!! I mean, the chemistry between Aleksander and Alina is off the charts, they cannot just put that aside, I don't see any chemistry with Mal and her, just more of a loving friendship. Ok, I know that eventually Mal will be her destiny, they will never change that from the books, but at least give us a bit more of a story between the darkling and Alina for a while inbetween!! ok, that's my two cents worth!! Ha ha, more like a dissertation in fact! Sorry not sorry! 😊 ps - you should watch Sarah Morgan's character breakdown video of The Darkling! It highlights a lot of the key scenes with him. what are other people's thoughts? X
It’s interesting that Netflix chose the two actors with most chemistry to play the ‘doomed’ love affair. Why would they do that? I know in acting they do chemistry tests etc so they knew pre filming this was the case, and as you say, chemistry between Mal and Alina is zero on screen.... makes me wonder if they are going somewhere with it we don’t expect...
I love Jessie's performance as Alina. She portrays her with a quiet confidence & an inner strength that is not angry, vengeful or victimized by her pain & suffering. She molded Alina to be someone that is always hopeful & keeps getting back up even when she gets knocked down. She doesn't feel limited by her weaknesses or her appearance, in spite of the fact that she is on the receiving end of a lot of hate & racism. She is very self-reliant, clever, independent, definitely doesn't not to be saved by a man...she knows what she is and what she isn't. She doesn't feel sorry for herself or dwells in her trauma, she steps into her power & makes magic happen. She is one bad-ass Grisha!
my thoughts while I watched this: ".... am I a darklina stan?" *rethinks* "nah ofc not" *continues watching* "am i??" *continues watching* "well maybe just a little bit..." *me after finishing this,* "STAND SUN GIRL AND SHADOW BOY THEY ARE SOULMATES" *proceeds to cry*
Oh my god they had such genuine chemistry. Just the LOOK in their eyes. *shudders* I'm still holding out that they're end game some how (but I doubt it). This video gave me goosebumps. Well done!
They are a reflection of each other. equals. light and darkness. Eclipse. They should become the king and queen of Ravka and bring everyone to their knees. I'm waiting for their endgame more than anything
I always have goosebumps somewhow everytime i saw this Alexander and Alina ❤ two very different world becomes one.. Nothing is impossible ☯️ fire on fire
I finished watching this series only yesterday, after reading the first book. And then I found this video. This is just perfect, with all my favourite scenes and the music too. Can't stop listening to this. JUST WOW ! 🥺❤
I want a tragic romance: -Alina gets slowly more dark, by being faced with difficult choices -Darkling gets resurrected, and becomes slowly more good, from his love for Alina (but she keeps pushing him away) -season 3 ends with the Darkling sacrificing himself to save Alina and the world -she admits she loves him, he dies at peace in her arms - the end. Let's all admit this is the best poetic ending, and works best with the plot so far 💘
I got some serious Klaus Mikaelson or Rio vibes here... I'm a simple girl, I totally fell for Ben Barnes, I love his acting for this character role. I love it when you can't really hate the bad guys. There are way too interesting to be hated and forgotten. And I sincerily hope that the series will give us some more steamy Darklina scenes even though I know which direction the relation between them in the books takes...
Seriously when it was announced that Ben Barnes would be playing the Darkling, I was thinking okay, that's fine. But when I saw the trailer and I could feel my childhood crush on him rising from the dead, waving at me going, "hey, remember me?" And I just went, "goddamit, not another depressed-demon-boy type fictional crush. Loki is enough." But oh well, here I go again.
Whoop Whoop! Season 2 is Go! Let's hope we get to see more character development in regard to the mutual vulnerabilities between the Darkling and Alina and their undeniable connection. I hope they will deviate from the books more and allow us to see a softer side to The Darkling when he thinks of Alina. They cannot let all that chemistry go to waste!!
When he was telling mal--that he will die soon, and alina will live on for longer and she will forgive darkling eventually.... Ohhh😏someone getting jealous and possesive!!!
I think we need more of the darkling and alina in s2 and i love the song it's my fav in the K-Drama edits too i really wish that the two of them can compete s2 together ❤❤❤❤❤
Fairy Wolf - This is beautiful Masterpiece of art that you have created! The song, the clips pieced together in perfect connection...truly you have a very sacred eye of all that is beautiful...a way to tell stories that touch and move our hearts. Blessings to you...my Master Creator.
The most beautiful edit i’ve seen!!! This made me feel how strong & palpable their chemistry is! Goosebumps! 😍😍😍 Aleksander & Alina will make the ultimate badass couple! #DarkLinaforever 🖤💛
Okay, so, I used to edit couples on RUclips, now I edit for a living, and I can say this is one great video. LOVE that you decided to include the original audio. Great job!
This is the most beautiful Darklina edit!!! Its like this song was made for them, the lyrics suits them so much. They complete each other, they need each other. She is his light. The books had such a disappointing ending. Netflix plssss you have to make darklina endgame. Darkling needs a redemption arc and it's all set. Pls for once give us something new than plain old Boring bff to lover ship. Malina sucks. and it'll be a waste of such good chemistry and potential if they don't make darklina endgame. We deserve it😭❤️❤️
So every time that RUclips show me a video of Darklina I can't avoid to myself watch it Also amazing edit, thanks for doing this, and it was a perfect choice of song I love them so much Also Darklina 's fadom there is some hope because the writer told once that she will adapt the books to what people want for the show So #darklinaendgame forever
This edit is soooo PERFECT ❤️ Darklina should be the endgame! I mean even when Alina and Mal look into each other eyes I feel no chemistry rather a life long friendship. But for darkling and alina I can feel their chemistry even if they r away from each other.
i think that he loves her and was angry at her when she refused him for what he is... but between them is real love,,, i hope to see this in the second series... i love them
Darkling is just a guy who is fighting against people who will eventually hurt others just the way they killed his wife and almost killed him. The problem is he is not the kind of guy, you can piss off and go off to your lala land. He made alina who she is. He gave her respect. Love. Attention. And as so soon as he did everyone else began to see goodness in her too. He is darkness and alina is light. The both should be together to bring out the balance. Alina is the kindness he needs and Darkling is the protection and love alina needs.
I have a lot of ships and have watched plenty of fmvs, but this video has made me the most emotional for some reason. And I gotta say it's probably my favorite EVER. I love the song choice and the way it's edited to match (especially when the chorus begins). Good job!!!!

And in the books, she knows that he is the only person that will ever truly understand her, too.
Darklina has the POTENTIAL to give us a proper lovers to enemies to lovers/enemies to lovers story. They can be the 🔥BADASS COUPLE🔥 ! I know the darkling is very bad and toxic and manipulative,basically THE VILLAIN and shipping darklina is like morally wrong but you know what- it’s fictional,COMPLETELY FICTIONAL! So I ship them because I feel like they belong to each other and have this bond like no other. I shipped them in the books too and in the show I know they hurried up because there was less time/were less episodes but still loved them and I cannot deny their BEAUTIFUL chemistry 😭.. Also they are interesting and fun to watch. Netflix NEEDS TO CHANGE THE ENDING AND THE ENDGAME like they already changed SO MUCH OF THE THINGS so like please 🥺🌘☀️🖤
Totally agree.
Typically I prefer closer adaptations to the books that movies/shows are based on but for Shadow and Bone, absolutely want them to change Alina and the Darkling ending. The actors Ben and Jessica have way too much chemistry that pairing them with anyone else would be unbelievable.
Feeling the pain off this ship crashing and burning to the ground all over again!! Darklina is just so beautiful! 😪😪 The way Ben and Jessie being these characters to life, you just can't help but want to see them together 😑 Gorgeous edit to this song! I think I'll watch it again and dream of what could've been..
Alina and Aleksander are like two sides of the same coin...Forever connected. I haven't read the books but the Netflix show has shown so much depth in his character and showing his backstory really shows that he had reasons for what he did, he really was trying to protect his people. You could tell that he didn't actually mean to create the fold it came flowing out from his immense pain and anger from his years of never-ending persecution and loss and took on a life of its own.
I don't think he is 100% pure evil at all, yes he has done many evil things, but I believe that no one is beyond redemption and it would be really good if the series played this out... You could see that he did have genuine feelings for Alina, it wasn't all manipulation. It would be so good if they would look more at their connection in season 2 and that inspite of her better judgement Alina would start to understand him and care for him
It was clear in the kiss scenes between them that significant changes were made from the books - she kissed him first, and then in the next scene he stopped and asked her if she was sure... That clearly shows he cares about what she wanted. He is such an intriguing character with so many layers to him and I hope Netflix will continue to give us that and not end up making him some one dimensional villain (like it seems he was in the books) A redemption arc is what he needs. I know that some one else commented that will never happen because their needs to be an ultimate villain for the story to make sense ... I think that is true, there does need to be a villain.. But why can't they bring in another rival for his power?? I know it would be totally different to the books but plenty of other series have totally deviated from the original books. apparently the author said in the past that she doesn't want to promote a Darklina love story... I can understand that as the 'woke' generation will be all worried that it would send a bad example to teenage girls... But come on... Teenage girls realise this is fantasy! It's not trying to reflect reality! And everyone who has ever read a book knows that the complicated 'bad guy' is always the more interesting love interest than the faithful good guy!! Speaking of Mal, apparently they have changed his character in the show a bit and made him nicer, he doesn't seem to have a single flaw now (in the books he was possessive and a bit of a prat at times) but now his character in the show is actually pretty bland I think...
I know it's cheesy but there is potential that Alina's light could save Aleksander from himself and start to let go of the bitterness and revenge that has blighted his existence for so long! I really hope they explore this possibility because it makes much more interesting storytelling I think! the typical archetypal villain role has been done to death! Let's see a more multidimensional character who is capable of change because of allowing love to enter his heart again after centuries of pushing it away!
Also, at the end of the season, yes The Darkling went too far, killed a lot of people and treated Alina terribly but he has a warped viewpoint on how to handle things because he is so used to being betrayed. As they approached he knew Zlatan would kill them all, he was really taking the only option he thought he could at that point and he has sadly let the thirst for power consume him. I really do not think he is beyond redemption though! I hope he can be saved somehow... Please Netflix!!
I mean, the chemistry between Aleksander and Alina is off the charts, they cannot just put that aside, I don't see any chemistry with Mal and her, just more of a loving friendship. Ok, I know that eventually Mal will be her destiny, they will never change that from the books, but at least give us a bit more of a story between the darkling and Alina for a while inbetween!!
ok, that's my two cents worth!! Ha ha, more like a dissertation in fact! Sorry not sorry! 😊 ps - you should watch Sarah Morgan's character breakdown video of The Darkling! It highlights a lot of the key scenes with him.
what are other people's thoughts? X
It’s interesting that Netflix chose the two actors with most chemistry to play the ‘doomed’ love affair. Why would they do that? I know in acting they do chemistry tests etc so they knew pre filming this was the case, and as you say, chemistry between Mal and Alina is zero on screen.... makes me wonder if they are going somewhere with it we don’t expect...
Oh I agree with you on like every single point. Couldn't have said it any better.
Fingers crossed! ☺👍
....That they take their relationship down a different route to the books Rosa
CocoSinger 👍😊..... Thanks for that 😀 glad some of us are on the same train of thought! ... Or should i say ship! Lol!
I love Jessie's performance as Alina. She portrays her with a quiet confidence & an inner strength that is not angry, vengeful or victimized by her pain & suffering. She molded Alina to be someone that is always hopeful & keeps getting back up even when she gets knocked down. She doesn't feel limited by her weaknesses or her appearance, in spite of the fact that she is on the receiving end of a lot of hate & racism. She is very self-reliant, clever, independent, definitely doesn't not to be saved by a man...she knows what she is and what she isn't. She doesn't feel sorry for herself or dwells in her trauma, she steps into her power & makes magic happen. She is one bad-ass Grisha!
my thoughts while I watched this:
".... am I a darklina stan?"
*rethinks*
"nah ofc not"
*continues watching*
"am i??"
*continues watching*
"well maybe just a little bit..."
*me after finishing this,*
"STAND SUN GIRL AND SHADOW BOY THEY ARE SOULMATES"
*proceeds to cry*
Yessss ☀️🙆♀️
what is the movie name??
@@nallymwetupunga7405 It is a TV show inspired by a trilogy (and duology) called Shadow and Bone.
Oh my god they had such genuine chemistry. Just the LOOK in their eyes. *shudders* I'm still holding out that they're end game some how (but I doubt it). This video gave me goosebumps. Well done!
I’ve watched this like 10 times already. They’re so beautiful and this song matches them perfectly🥺
I love this song! I always used it as a canon for my favorite couples
This is soooo beautiful
And such chemistry...just gone to waste😢 They aren't returning for a season 3 😭😭
They are a reflection of each other. equals. light and darkness. Eclipse. They should become the king and queen of Ravka and bring everyone to their knees. I'm waiting for their endgame more than anything
I always have goosebumps somewhow everytime i saw this Alexander and Alina ❤ two very different world becomes one.. Nothing is impossible ☯️ fire on fire
I finished watching this series only yesterday, after reading the first book. And then I found this video. This is just perfect, with all my favourite scenes and the music too. Can't stop listening to this. JUST WOW ! 🥺❤
Name of this series?
@@samihamoon5012 shadow and bone , it's a Netflix show. Season 1 is over. Season 2 will be out soon
I want a tragic romance:
-Alina gets slowly more dark, by being faced with difficult choices
-Darkling gets resurrected, and becomes slowly more good, from his love for Alina (but she keeps pushing him away)
-season 3 ends with the Darkling sacrificing himself to save Alina and the world
-she admits she loves him, he dies at peace in her arms - the end.
Let's all admit this is the best poetic ending, and works best with the plot so far 💘
OMG YES
HOLY GUACAMOLE this is the best edit ive ever seen ive watched it like 10 times and it makes me happy
I got some serious Klaus Mikaelson or Rio vibes here... I'm a simple girl, I totally fell for Ben Barnes, I love his acting for this character role. I love it when you can't really hate the bad guys. There are way too interesting to be hated and forgotten. And I sincerily hope that the series will give us some more steamy Darklina scenes even though I know which direction the relation between them in the books takes...
Yasss🖤
I'm obsessed with this edit, with this song and with this couple!!! Darklina forever!!!! I love how the song fits with the story between them TWO!
THIS has got to be the best edit so far of Darklina! Captured everything, and ohh those montages! 😍 Who wouldn't ship Darklina after watching this??
I finished this show in two sittings and now I have an unhealthy obsession with General kirigan and Alina. I want them to be endgame so much.
Same
Agreed..
I'D BE LYING IF I SAID I HAVENT RE-WATCHED THIS EDIT FOR MILLIONS OF TIMES AAAA
Don’t worry you’re not alone 😀😂
Series name????
No matter how many times I watch this, I always get goosebumps when he says, 'now call the sun'
Seriously when it was announced that Ben Barnes would be playing the Darkling, I was thinking okay, that's fine. But when I saw the trailer and I could feel my childhood crush on him rising from the dead, waving at me going, "hey, remember me?" And I just went, "goddamit, not another depressed-demon-boy type fictional crush. Loki is enough." But oh well, here I go again.
Can't stop watching this! You created a wonderful video for Darklina
THIS IS THE BEST DARKLINA EDIT I HAVE EVER SEEN
Oh gods, this mv is so good, in love with the music and scenes 💘
This was a beautiful edit and the song was perfect. IDC if it won't ever happen but i wish Darklina is endgame
Same 😍
Same
Whoop Whoop! Season 2 is Go!
Let's hope we get to see more character development in regard to the mutual vulnerabilities between the Darkling and Alina and their undeniable connection. I hope they will deviate from the books more and allow us to see a softer side to The Darkling when he thinks of Alina.
They cannot let all that chemistry go to waste!!
Goosebumps!!! Amazing edit.Love these two.The chemistry is nuclear
When he was telling mal--that he will die soon, and alina will live on for longer and she will forgive darkling eventually.... Ohhh😏someone getting jealous and possesive!!!
I don't see the lie there. What he said was true.
Soooo obsessed with the pair, the chemistry is real !!!! Please I hope they find a way to get back together in season 2.
The amount of times I’ve watched this edit over and over again is insane!!
It’s so perfect!! 😭😍
CAN SOMEONE HELP BRING THE SHOW BACK. THIS WAS SUCH A GREAT SHOW.
Amazing edit and song choice🤩 Darklina has such an unbelievable chemistry it hurts 😍💔
The song. The edit. It's perfection.
I love them so much and I really hope the series gives us Darklina in the end.
Beautiful job. Just what I was looking for. Sifted through quite a few stinkers to find this gold!
I keep coming back to this edit it’s so good 😭😭 I’ve been singing the song under my breath and making myself sad thinking about them god Im unwell
Oh my God🤤🤤🤤
It's the best edit I've seen. Thanks for this!💞 I'm in love and I don't like what the series has showed for us
This is soooo sad and beautifullll gahhhhhh...
I think we need more of the darkling and alina in s2 and i love the song it's my fav in the K-Drama edits too i really wish that the two of them can compete s2 together ❤❤❤❤❤
I will forever come back to this edit. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!
Fairy Wolf - This is beautiful Masterpiece of art that you have created! The song, the clips pieced together in perfect connection...truly you have a very sacred eye of all that is beautiful...a way to tell stories that touch and move our hearts. Blessings to you...my Master Creator.
The most beautiful edit i’ve seen!!! This made me feel how strong & palpable their chemistry is! Goosebumps! 😍😍😍 Aleksander & Alina will make the ultimate badass couple! #DarkLinaforever 🖤💛
Awww mate, the editing to this was 👌👌👌👌👌
Their chemistry their love I just can’t except them to be with other people😭💜
Okay, so, I used to edit couples on RUclips, now I edit for a living, and I can say this is one great video. LOVE that you decided to include the original audio. Great job!
It's incredible, the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.....
We’ve already known the endgame in the book. Let’s make us surprised by another one 🥲 Netflix can you hear meeee
Please Netflix hear us! Please. Don’t ruin this beautiful story with so much potential. 🙌🙌😍😍😍
Hi.. I didn't read the book.. But may I know what is the end game.. Pleasee
@@MissDowie Alina kills Darkling, that’s what I know 🥲
@@MissDowie Alina ends up with Mal and she killed the darkling
@@MissDowie Alina loses her powers, kills the Darkling, marries Mal and ends up retiring in a farm...it sucks
THIS IS WHAT I HAD WANTED SINCE A LONG TIME and I got this omg, that too on my favorite song, this is a pure blessing.
This song fits so good-
This is the most beautiful Darklina edit!!! Its like this song was made for them, the lyrics suits them so much. They complete each other, they need each other. She is his light. The books had such a disappointing ending. Netflix plssss you have to make darklina endgame. Darkling needs a redemption arc and it's all set. Pls for once give us something new than plain old Boring bff to lover ship. Malina sucks. and it'll be a waste of such good chemistry and potential if they don't make darklina endgame. We deserve it😭❤️❤️
This editing is amazing, it captures the feelings so well :)
Nahhhhh mate this song nd the edit is just wow!! Great job🥰🥰
THIS IS AMAZING! THANK YOU
If only Mal didn't exist so that I'd stop feeling so bad for him 😭
I loved their chemistry in the series. I am really excited to see the second season!!
I'm so glad im not the only one who almost cry cuz i ship the darkling and alina so hard i refuse to accept the plot
I love this song this video is incredible.
that "make me your villain" it hurt him too
This has to be one of my favorite Darklina edits
I really hope season 2 captures their book 2 emotions. I need more complicated desire from the 2 of them. 😩
He's like insanely beautiful. Damn🔥 darklina pls💯 make it happen
Maybe. Just maybe, Alina could destroy the darkness in him too.
I am obsessed with this VM as much as I am obsessed with Darklina🥲🌓❤ Fire on Fire is officially Darklina theme song for me🙌
So every time that RUclips show me a video of Darklina I can't avoid to myself watch it
Also amazing edit, thanks for doing this, and it was a perfect choice of song
I love them so much
Also Darklina 's fadom there is some hope because the writer told once that she will adapt the books to what people want for the show
So
#darklinaendgame forever
I have watched this for like the seventh time, and I still get goosebumps
This edit is soooo PERFECT ❤️
Darklina should be the endgame! I mean even when Alina and Mal look into each other eyes I feel no chemistry rather a life long friendship. But for darkling and alina I can feel their chemistry even if they r away from each other.
Agreed. Same
i think that he loves her and was angry at her when she refused him for what he is... but between them is real love,,, i hope to see this in the second series... i love them
Darkling is just a guy who is fighting against people who will eventually hurt others just the way they killed his wife and almost killed him. The problem is he is not the kind of guy, you can piss off and go off to your lala land. He made alina who she is. He gave her respect. Love. Attention. And as so soon as he did everyone else began to see goodness in her too. He is darkness and alina is light. The both should be together to bring out the balance. Alina is the kindness he needs and Darkling is the protection and love alina needs.
I have a lot of ships and have watched plenty of fmvs, but this video has made me the most emotional for some reason. And I gotta say it's probably my favorite EVER.
I love the song choice and the way it's edited to match (especially when the chorus begins). Good job!!!!
This video made me watch Shadow&Bone and honestly, one of the best series I've watched
