"Guilt is one of the most sickening feelings there is," Alastair said. "Most people will do anything to avoid feeling it. I know I--" He took a deep breathe. "One can either refuse to accept it, push it away and blame others, or one can take responsibility. One can bear the unbearable weight."
He sounded exhausted.
"I have always wanted to bear it with you," said Thomas quietly.
"Yes," Alastair said. His eyes were bright with cold. "Raziel knows, perhaps that is the reason I have not become like Tatiana myself. You keep human, Tom."

Headcanon:
After the final battle, everyone is at the London Institute, Thomas and Alastair run up to each other and kiss in front of the members of the Enclave, Inquisitor Bridgestock and the Merry Thieves. Anna, Cordelia, Lucie and Eugenia would gossip with happiness and Matthew would lose his mind and try to kill Alastair, but James and Christopher hold him back. Gideon and Sophie would be so proud of Thomas

Thomas: "I wish that you would stop telling me what the best thing for me is. You tell me over and over that there are all these reasons why you think my loving you would be bad for me."
Alastair: "I didn't say anything about love."
Thomas: "Well, I DID."
