I love how while Darius has the basic decency to not abuse kids, he's still not nice, like he chooses to be a difficult asshole the entire time and it's beautiful.
For example in ASIAS, when Darius had Willow, Gus, Viney, & Skara in custody he didn't bother to tell them he had no intention of turning them into the coven and was gonna let them go. He made the situation worse for the kids and for himself because he needs to be at least a bit of a bastard every hour of the day.
And I can't even tell which personal reasoning he used is funnier:
- He intentionally withheld the information, either in some reverse psychology attempt to inspire rebellion, or to try scaring them into realizing how messed up covens really are before they learned the hard way
Or
- He simply didn't want to waste the time explaining. Just. Planned to keep them separated from their palisman until they got to Hexside, then the second they landed, open the door and tell them to go home, chop-chop, I don't have all day
Both reasons are equally a little cruel, but while one is a misguided attempt to "help", the other is just sheer fucking laziness.
I love this man.
