"Just for while you're in Moonrise" Gortash said "Let's give you a reason not to dawdle with the General." Gortash said. All fun and games until Durge wakes up on the nautiloid with no memory and a chastity belt on

Living with Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors
Me: *Is super stressed over life.*
Trichotillomania: Time to pull some hair! C'mon. You won't even notice you're doing it. It'll make you feel better.
Me: NO. *Spends 4 days putting hair in a mini twist protective style* There.
Dermatillomania: Hey. Your hands are free. And restless. And dry... Pick your skin. Bleed. Bleed.
Me: Stop! *Starts up a new crochet project to keep hands busy.* Ok cool.
Onychophagia: Hi hi. Your nails are.... perfect biting length... you should do that.
Me: Noooooooooooo *Paints nails.*
Dermatillomania: Oh look, you got some nail polish on your skin. Pick it off... now pick some more...

I started a playthrough with default durge because I want to see choices that would be out of character for Valas, and can I just say—

I think Karlach witnessing Levi almost murdering Gortash and being distressed over it is the final push for Gortash to sell her to Zariel.
Bc Gortash was looking into the ways to realise all his insane plans, and now things are finally starting to fall into the full picture. He had ideas, he had plans, but now? Now, with a beautiful monster what Levi Ravengard turned out to be, he has the means.
Meanwhile Karlach keeps fussing over him, insisting Levi is dangerous, too dangerous, what he almost killed Gortash, and it's annoying. She gets into his way, she becomes more trouble than not. So he sells her and proceeds with his plan to seduce Ravengard's oldest.
Enver can do plenty of things with the knowledge what Levi is a Bhaalspawn. He can blackmail Ravengard, for starters. Threaten to unleash this knowledge into the masses.
Or he can do it smart; play the trustworthy card and swear to keep this secret, promise to honor Levi's privacy and at the same time double his efforts.
And it works marvels; unburdened by the secrecy, Levi actually flourishes under his attention. Gortash sees how scared of the urges everyone around Levi is and how...ashamed they are too, like it's some dirty secret showed under the rug. And he sees Levi himself sees how other treat his "sickness" and what a toll it leaves on him.
So he works on the angle "I like you not because the urges, but with them, because of them, because they're the part of you".
And its so new to Levi, who is used to feeling ashamed, having his father and Florrick being disappointed at him with every death he causes while also not being able to not kill (I'm a firm believer Durge, being pure Bhaal's creation, needs to kill to survive, not just wants/is driven to do that).
Levi is used to people loving him despite the urges, so then someone likes him with them, accepts all of him, every part of his undoubtedly awful self, it's the most freeing thing in the world.
He can breathe, for the first time in his life he can actually breathe. He is honest with Gortash in the way he has never been honest with anyone, not even Jaheira. He tells the man all of his fears and, unlike his family, Gortash acknowledges what his nature indeed is a problem what needs to be dealt with, and it will keep being one for as long as Bhaal exists. Breaking yourself into pieces by trying to change your nature will do no good, but does Levi know what will? Dealing with Bhaal once and for all. Even gods can be defeated.
After that Gortash has Levi in his pocket. Because he saw him when everyone else only agreed to see parts of him and denied the ugly parts. Gortash saw the monster Levi felt to be and called him beautiful.

Silly thought but what if Billy's mom, in an attempt to save her son because she can't take him far without Neil tracking them down immediately, just fakes his death. She's trusted enough to take her son to the beach where it's just her and her little boy, and she can't take Neil's abuse anymore and a weird moment of understanding as she watches Billy ride waves with his giggles filling the air between the rushing of the water and the sounds of the seabirds that she won't leave him there either.
So she sets up something with relatives of hers where they'll take Billy temporarily and make it on the news that there was a freak accident and a mother is devastated because her son is gone, fashioned where no evidence could be pinned elsewhere. Times it so that yeah maybe a stronger wave or even a riptide caught the otherwise experienced but still a child surfer by surprise. Neil blames it on her because that was their son and how could she be so daft to not keep track of him. It gets pretty bad, but she knew it would, so not even a month later does she disappear as well.
She gets ahold of Billy again, but far away from where they used to be because Billy is supposed to be dead and Neil might find them if they stayed. They end up at Hawkins because it is a tiny little town and there was no way Neil would find them.
And then something happens to Billy's mum anyways because life just kind of hates him so he stays with the relatives which are the Holloways because why not, and they don't mind raising their nephew with their daughter who is about the same age. They get along great. He even gets along with the neighbourhood kids, even if they're also within that fairly wealthy attitude.
Cut to years later and Billy is a grown teen now, hanging out and doing great when a new family rolls into town and he catches a glimpse of a man he barely remembers anymore but still feels phantom chills run down his back.
Lucky for him, the man doesn't have any reason to randomly approach the teenager that echoes a family long gone.

hoo hoo hee hee I have finished a v1 of my animatic..........
now I face a ton of problems, like:
no sound design I should probably put some sound design (it's a lot of work but also !!! would be cool!!!!)
voice acting would be nice??? but all of the people who could record for me that I know are french ;;
okay but it would be good to have a payoff to all the setup right? even if it means putting a LOT more time in it than I already have.......
oh no It Was Fun
