Fellas, is it gay if you look out upon your nearest and dearest, forgotten accomplice's home whose name is sickeningly familiar and this song plays in your head?
Do you think Gortash stood on his balcony, not knowing why but drawn to stare at the abandoned building Durge called camp?
Anyways, the song triggers even if you haven't romanced anyone in your camp, and while of course it is totally up for interpretation, I'm interpreting it as durgetash. I mean, beyond the obvious urge to spill and potentially drink blood:
"I feel your breath upon my neck.
A soft caress as cold as death […]
Your blood like wine, I wanted in
Oh darling, get me drunk and make me feel
Their memory is unclear, but the feeling isn't:
"I feel your heartbeat in my soul. Our futures bound, our bodies know."
What can't be remembered is still held within their body, and another version of that line changes to "our endings bound", which is only true of a few people- Durge can complete the game alone, but their ending is always shaped by their decisions surrounding Enver, the brain, and Bhaal.
Their endings are intertwined, they are each other's only equal, but Gortash's can only end one way (fight me, Larian)
"My only one, There's more to do, if we can only live. The clock won't stop and this is what we get".
Durge being hopeful to live, at least to finish what needs to be done- but some of their old guilt reflected in the prayer of forgiveness could be seen reflected here as well.
"It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
These ain't my sins
I broke my chains"
Whether sins here refer to their sin of admiring the chosen of Bhaal or the sins of murder forced by their father's hand, they very much did and might have continued to break chains since being tadpoled. Paired with 'get me drunk and make me feel', it almost reads more like it isn't their fault they fell for him, he tempted them and gave them all they needed to feel, to be a person for the first time.
Full lyrics below. There's so much more you could pull from it (And yes, I know this will also trigger if you play as Tav, but it has such a unique flavor for Durge)
---------------
I feel your breath upon my neck
A soft caress as cold as death (cold as death)
I didn't know you well back then
I blame it all on luck and vain (luck and vain)
Your blood like wine, I wanted in
Oh darling, get me drunk and make me feel
It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
These ain't my sins
I broke my chains
There's more to do
And I still want to live (live)
I feel your breath upon my neck
A soft caress as cold as death (cold as death)
I feel your heartbeat in my soul
Our futures bound, our bodies know (bodies know)
Your blood like wine, I wanted in
Oh darling get me drunk, invite me in
It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
Thesе ain't my sins
I broke my chains
There's morе to do
If I can only live (live)
I can't go yet
Don't let me die
I'll never stop
Until I'm done
But just tonight
Maybe I'll rest in peace
I feel your breath upon my neck
A soft caress as cold as death (cold as death)
I hear your heartbeat in my soul
Our endings bound, our bodies know
I can't go yet
Don't let me die
I want to live
My only one
There's more to do, if we can only live
The clock won't stop and this is what we get
today I met joker out and I'm going to leave a very unhinged ramble about it here because I absolutely cannot believe it happened 🫠
THESE GUYS ARE THE NICEST, FUNNIEST PEOPLE YOU WILL EVER MEET AND I AKSJAKSHSK I honestly don't know if I will ever recover because it was so surreal 😭
the first thing Bojan said to me was "how are you not freezing?!" (I was wearing a joker out shirt with a flannel over the top) and I very intelligently said "I don't know, I'm just... not for some reason?" hahaha I totally wasn't nervous-
ANYWAYS I got a photo with all of them!!!!! face reveal I guess?! please don't post anywhere else without my permission though 😅
also Bojan left me the following note (shout-out to whoever lent me their pen) after I said "you can write anything"....... he thinks he's so funny 😭
LONG STORY SHORT........ this was the best day of my life :)
the love child update from today was 🔥🔥🔥 outstanding as always, i’ve read it like 12 times already i love them sm
i can’t remember if this is smth you already addressed, so feel free to ignore this if it is, but does milek know that geralt is his dad? like obviously jaskier told him to find geralt if he was ever in trouble, and he knows about their friendship, but does he know how far it went? and if he does, does he know that geralt doesn’t know? i just feel like that conversation they had today could be read so many different ways, like are they talking past each other? is milek facepalming bc goddamnit both his dads are morons, fucking typical? so many possibilities!
Ohh, that is a good question, I guess the whole thing is a bit convoluted.
Milek knows that Geralt is his father, he knows that his parents have a long, but complicated history (in which Milek is under the impression that his parents were a couple at one point and Jaskier feels like they were fuckbuddies at best. He felt rather used at times, more like a substitute for Yennefer).
Milek was taught from a young age that he is not supposed to tell anyone about this. First it was a safety measure because Nilfgaard was looking for them and later it continued to be one; they're already not seen in the most positive light and in the best case, it would look like he's lying. In the worst case he would meet anti-witcher sentimentalities. He learned later that Geralt has no idea either - which is something Jaskier needed some time to realise too, as he was accusing Geralt in his talk with Yennefer here about knowing it, but still sending him away.
So there are years of secrecy drilled into Milek, and he knows Jaskier would be fine with him telling Geralt, because I do think Jaskier and Milek had the the talk once he was older that it's his decision if he wants to get to know and tell his father, or not, but.
I think he imagined that talk a hundred times. He daydreamed about this a lot. But now, in reality? The thought of saying something is a suddenly very, very scary.
HAPPY "SECRET" GIFT DAY TO....Mo!! <3<3<3 @lotrmusical

Heydey 🦵🦵🙌🧍(that looks deranged out of context someone take emojis away from me or get us better ones :D )
so I'm writing about how gerard is utterly in love with frank and his face, how would you describe frank?(don't feel pressured)
@fruityfroggyfelon So i’ve been trying to figure out in like what capacity you’re asking this? like how would i describe frank to someone or like how id describe frank in writing…so i just went with how i’d describe frank in writing. and feel free to do whatever with this, use it to whatever degree you want, hate it, love it, whatever. also idfk why im so nervous posting this lmfao i don’t think i should be but fuck dude.
also, i’ve never written gee so i’m not gonna attempt their speech patterns, so ig it’s a like you pov of frank. but any way, here we go.~🎃
The way the afternoon sun hit Frank’s face always had you in awe. The way it brought out the flecks of gold in his eyes, the warmth and depth it brought to his beautiful brown hair. He was fucking stunning, there was no other way to describe it. Your favorite thing was the way his entire face scrunched up when you said something that that really got him laughing. That uneven giggle of his always had you laughing with him every single time. You loved watching him work, the absolute focus visible on his face was nothing short of endearing. His eyebrows drawn together, lips pressed together and quirked to one side, almost a scowl. You loved the perfect slope of his nose and the way his jawline led into his adorable slightly crooked chin. The little scar on the bridge of his nose from what you always assumed to be from chicken pox as a child, and the small nearly closed up holes of where his nose and lip rings used to be— you could stare at him forever just mapping out all of the small features that you fall in love with all over again every time you see him.
when Hori said he “hopes those who love and hate Bakugo will enjoy this final arc” we assumed all the incredible stuff would come first, like getting a quirk upgrade and fighting alongside Deku with impending doom around the corner,, 😭 BUT WE’RE GETTING THE OL’ SWITCHEROO
