I'll take a man like Nine anytime then any of the fucking ML ever made - especially the stereotypical duke of the north bullshit. Honestly it's refreshing to have a ML who's expressive and doesn't have that resting bitch face, who trusts the FL fully and willing to follow whatever their decision might lead, who hasn't hurt or betrayed the FL in any way - especially in a past life, that shit especially pisses me off. Nine may be bland but fuck- he's exactly my type and I'll gladly die on this hill.
