The thing I love about Dishonored is that everyone's fucked up. No exceptions. Him? Fucked up. Her? Also fucked up. That man over there? He eats rats.

There’s something to be said about the concept of family in the dishonored games. How the entire unraveling of an empire begins with the death of a mother. How Corvo had to leave his mother in Karnaca to serve the empire and never saw her again. How the person Emily might have been if not for the death of her mother is lost in an instant, stripping her of a fully actualized sense of self. How Billie sought strength in Daud after a life of abuse and, once this pillar of strength showed even a single sign of weakness, her faith wavered so severely she felt compelled to destroy this false idol. How Delilah’s claims to the throne sound less like the truth and more like the desperate prayers of a lonely little girl. How Emily’s parentage is questionable at best but Corvo’s love for her, regardless of whether he is truly her biological father, is what slowly heals a broken empire.
Anyway. Something to be said there.

obsessed with how daud canonically chooses to forgive billie when she gives him the choice between killing her and showing her mercy after she betrays him
obsessed with how just a few months later, daud does the same, placing his life in the hands of a man whose life he completely ruined, asking to be spared and, against all odds, walking away from that encounter alive
obsessed with the alternatives you're given to those options as well
how, if you choose to kill billie in low chaos she helps you guide the blade. how she looks up at you and smiles as you stab her. how you hold her hand as she dies and don't let go even after she's gone
how, in high chaos, you just don't get that choice. her death is brutal, just like all the other deaths at your hand. like she said, what's one more body? but she's not just one more body. she's your second in command, your confidant, the closest thing you have to a daughter. you don't kill her with the same detachment you do for everyone else. you don't simply pull her onto your blade, you grab her by the throat as you stab her. it's brutal and it's personal, and that makes it so much worse
how, if you end brigmore witches with high chaos, corvo will kill you because you are not true to your word. you say that you feel remorse over jessamine's murder and yet your actions speak otherwise. you are not sincere in your words and while corvo may not know that, the game does. and it's telling you that that's the only way it could end. that if daud goes down that path he will not ever better his ways, nor will he be given the chance to. the only way daud can live is if he is actually committed to change
but despite all those options, in canon, daud gives billie the chance to leave and make a new life for herself. and corvo does the same for daud. and that is a parallel i think a lot about
