“Single father”

Concept art Bhaal 🙂‍↕️

If there’s Dark Urge x Gortash there also has to be Bane x Bhaal.

Bane is next 😈 and then we make them kiss, okay? We need to see those two more!!

Saturday night at Bhaal temple, with an off-duty soon to be Archduke.

Somehow, Durge really did make his Father proud, by throwing the dopest party the Gate had ever known, at his crib, in his name! "Pave my path with asses, build my castle with boozes", eh?

And the other six nights were like:

imagine having to work with this guy

Durge saying “For what it’s worth, I think I always liked you too. But this is how it must be.” genuinely catches him off guard.

When they walk in there he's ready to kill them- they dismantled his Steel Watch, he says so himself that any hope for an alliance fell with it. Any other line of dialogue just results in him snapping at them and starting combat- but that one makes him hesitate for just a second. Maybe it’s just me, but he sounds genuinely wounded when he says "is that what you- [think]”

Then the brain shakes and it gives him enough time to gather himself and pivot back to the point at hand, which is not going into half manic monologue about how close the two of them used to be.

Something about getting him to break like that is everything to me. For half a second it doesn't feel like he has a plan- you're not talking to the witty tyrant who has already thought in depth from every angle on how to handle this (because he probably didn't) you're talking to a guy who let one person get close to him and isn't nearly as okay with this betrayal as he wants to be.

And that's nifty.

Santa Gort is coming to town... 😭 (...)

ORIN! The world isn’t so bright here.
