The way I write Durge is that while he should be scarred way more than he is, he only keeps scars Bhaal allows him to, and the rest just kind of heals without a trace - the scars he does get to have are those he inflicts on himself during rituals or self flagellation (both being a way to honor Bhaal) and sometimes as reminders for weakness (like if Orin managed to get a good stab at him because he wasn't careful enough).
This leads to two fun things; first being the reason he is so scarred and messed up after tadpoling is because Bhaal turned his back on him as a punishment for his failures. With sceleritas, the better healing returns, and Strike proceeds to hide it for a while as to not risk getting potentially experimentes on again scare his new companions.
But the other fun this is that this implies Gortash being a possessive ass who gets increasingly frustrated that all of hickeys and cuts and clawmarks and bruises that he tries to mark Durge with disappear in a matter of a day, and he ends up in a dickmeasuring contest with Bhaal to see if he can hurt Durge faster than Bhaal can judgementaly heal him

Holy shit I love yutu? I want to kiss his head and pretend I don't see him side eyeing aces entire existence
Referencing this future kid au fic
(╥﹏╥) I'm so glad you like him. He's based off of M! Morgan from Fire Emblem Awakening who has a very special place in my heart. It's been 12 years (holy shit) but he's still my baby boy. Yutu would probably cry if Yuu gave him a forehead kiss, he loves his parent so much and was really fighting it to keep it together when he saw them alive again.
As for Ace... well. They have similar personalities, they're both very protective of Yuu but don't ever outright say it, they both like a good prank, and like life best when things are simple. Oh and they both like to cheat at cards.
But Yutu is a much harder worker than Ace is and doesn't complain about it so when he sees his father of all people "just joking" about wanting to share a bed with his parent or "not being into their type" he's got that judgey face on because he knows it's a lie. The best friends to lovers dynamic is completely lost on him because he grew up with a Yuu who could barely remember his dad but was still in love with him. He's got nothing to lose but his dignity and from Yutu's perspective he doesn't even have that 💀💀💀

pls the way Law would probably fight a little kid for a Sora comic is absolutely SENDING me😭😭😭😭😭
Some limited edition one, selling out fast and there’s only one copy left on the shelf. Law was running behind and couldn’t get there as early as he wanted, so he damn near cried when he seen the last book on the shelf. Before he could snatch it off the shelf, a little kid had ran up and taken it before him.
The way Corázon would take over his spirit in that mommeeennttt😭😭😭😭😭😭 I’m crying pls. He would be so PISSED and like “H-hey kid! That was mine!!” And the kids like “://// hmmm I don’t think so loser. Bye!!” And run off with Law shook to his bones that a kid got the comic he had been waiting on forever.
But before he could give chase to get the comic back (as if he had it first LMAO), you walk up to the kid and squat down; glancing back at Law and gesturing to another part of the book store (where the other Sora comics were).
Before he knew it, the little shit kid had ran off towards the comic book section with his hands empty and you had begun approaching him with the newest comic settled in your palms with a small smile on your face.
“I was wondering if you were going to come and pick this up, you’re always one of the first people here grabbing the latest editions. I’ll make you a trade, this comic for your number?”

i keep thinking ab ur tags on my post of iroh being a thief and stealing those perfumes but God. iroh being a guy that likes nice things and material pleasures and zukos love language is gift giving. he finds mai shells he thinks are cute... he steals beautiful tea sets and sweets for his uncle... AUGHH (GRIPS HEAD). Hes like a mangy grumpy little cat that drops weird shit at their owners feet to show love and devotion
YES AUGH
Zuko and Iroh on the run and Zuko knows how much his uncle misses all his nice things lost on the ship; that and Zuko is angry over their sudden displacement while on the run. Not only does taking these nice things give him a sense of power again, but it gives him an excuse to give something to his Uncle, who has stuck by his side this whole time.
And then Iroh questions where he got it from - he questions Zuko's love language. Like that was probably such an injury to Zuko, who just wanted a scrap of feeling some kind of control again ;; little skrunkly boy just trying to show/receive love while his whole life spirals.

Y'know this little throwaway gag is so bizarre to me and I know this game is a bit very different to 2 and 3 but look at Matt's reaction when Jack raids the place in 3:
You'd argue he's simply stopping Jack bc he hates this guy and he also hates this job which Could Be True but i highly doubt bc overall despite his virginity and overall cursed vibe, Matt seems to be a good employee, by all means (I mean, Peter literally gave him a vacation instead of firing him in 2, so that says a lot).
Plus, Dave hates this guy as much as he hates him! He literally always calls him creepy and, AND!
This is the only footage you get of the prize corner in 2. Which is also the first game to show Matt and Dave's disdain for one another, Dave being likely more scared of Matt than Matt will ever be of him.
Which is all very curious. 2 does set a drastic change for Matt too with him going from being just strange to outright creepy, so was the old pizza place closing something that actually affected him or was he consistently that creepy all along? And if the later, did he just start hating Dave after that or did they always have beef and they simply had some sort of arrangement (or even higher word from Steven who tended to let Dave do whatever he wanted in general) that let him do so?
