I have learned that Time can eat souls. Considering that Twi is Time's descendent and can rip out souls with his bare teeth in tp. Would that mean soul-eating got passed down genetically? Is it possible for them to have a soul picnic together?
Would Poe souls, spirits, and regular souls taste different from one another? Or are they the same thing with different names?
Gives a new perspective to the hero's shade you are what you eat kinda thing. lol

the fact that thomas himself said “for now zachary was enough” when thinking about him and alastair having kids implies that he considers himself one of zachary’s father figures and that’s just very important to me

‘Is there a point to any of this or do you just want to see how much more I can take?’ snaps Crassus.
‘Oh, I knew there was still some bite left in you,’ says Cethegus, thrilled.
Cethegus teaches Crassus the art of politics and the ways of business. Sulla is not a fan.

*You've butchered so many before - each death a gift to your Father. But this one, you will take from him. This one is just for you.*
I'm not saying that keeping Durge from dying/committing suicide is a bad thing (especially because their afterlife was not going to be an improvement), but if you lean into the options that portray them as suicidal, and then we get to Bhaal giving them the option of service or death (the only real choice he's ever given them) and Durge makes their choice - and judging by the Prayer for Forgiveness, death is something they've wanted for a long while.
This death, this choice, is for them.
And immediately somebody takes their decision away from them.
For the millionth time.
Jergal wasn't in the wrong, but my Durge still isn't speaking to him.
(And yes, that's technically from the Chosen of Bhaal post-final battle thing but it's relevant.)

Locke, Calo, Galdo and Jean: *Screaming*
Father Chains: Jean! What's wrong?!
Calo and Galdo: WHY ARE YOU ONLY ASKING JEAN?! WE'RE ALL SCREAMING!
Father Chains: Because Jean doesn't scream unless it's an emergency. You three scream whenever you have the chance.
