#100% being way more open they would be normal. gortash would almost never be open about about his time with raphael but he will leave a book

[wi1dshxpe]

gortash sets up a lending library at his estate after seeing durge’s in the bhaal temple. they both know they’re the only people who use them so it turns into a sort of game. durge loves music, so after enver’s last visit a book about viola has appeared in the temple library. enver fancy’s himself a jeweler so it’s only natural a scroll about gem welding would end up in his library. books relating to their schemes, hobbies, pasts, futures, inside jokes and aspirations get passed back in forth. the only extended pause is when a novel about star crossed lovers gets dropped in the bhaal library. it’s weeks before the favor is returned and enver receives a scroll about bhaalist marriage ceremonies. he doesn’t know whether to take it as an advance or a threat, so he accepts it as both.

#i ​love enver’s boldness to hear durge say ‘nobody whose been in a relationship with me has left alive’ and respond ‘yeah but i’m different’#he is but not enough to change his fate#they would also be like varying levels of straight forward- at times they’re coming up with entirely new cipher systems for simple messages#100% being way more open they would be normal. gortash would almost never be open about about his time with raphael but he will leave a book#alluding to his treatment when he was at the house of hope#my durge was a cleric of ilmater in their youth and is incredibly ashamed of it by the time they meet gortash. but they do leave him a book#of his teachings with a chapter about meditations they still use to quell their urge#and obviously bhaal hates everything about this. not only is durge besties w his enemy and doing stupid stuff that has nothing to do with#murder they’re being unashamed of things he very much wants them to be ashamed of
