Here's the thing.
Orym is in love with an idealized perfect version of Dorian Storm. But the Dorian he is being reunited with is someone who got the head of a major thieves guild pissed at him by stealing a lot of money... to save his brother. And then? It all fell through. All that effort was for naught, Cyrus died anyway.
(Guess Dorian can spend that 40,000 gold however he wants!)
(He won't... he'll save it in case Cyrus can be brought back. Maybe even pay it anyway to clear Cyrus' name.)
Dorian is angry. He is extremely angry. And you know? I think part of him might like the idea of Predathos being freed, of the Spider Queen dying horribly... much like his brother died. Just as Imogen comes around and is 100% "let's fuck over Predathos" here's Dorian going "well, maybe it won't be as bad as you're worried about!" Or even just entertaining that thought.
Why should Dorian care about the Gods? What have the Gods done for him? Hell, the Gods have fucked him over - or at least the Spider Queen did. For that matter, the Matron of Ravens urged her Champion to flee and take Cyrus' soul with her, the Wildmother basically kept telling his other friend "hey, let's just let this happen," and that's three Gods now that basically conspired with each other to fuck over Cyrus and Dorian.
So. Yeah. Orym is in love with an idealized version of Dorian, one that doesn't exist. He's going to find this angry version of Dorian who is hiding pieces of himself now. He's in love with a dream... and now he's waking up. Dorian is still Dorian. The base of what he fell in love with is there. Maybe he can help Dorian heal. Maybe he can stay in love with a badly wounded friend.
And how about Dorian? Dorian has been through shit of his own. He has lived in fear for a good portion of the time Orym's been off saving the world. Everything he worked for? Was for naught. Hell, if he'd never bothered helping Cyrus... then maybe FCG would be alive. He could have stayed with his friends. He could have stayed with Orym.
Much as Orym has loved an idealized version of Dorian, so too I think has Dorian been idealizing Orym. He's not seen the Orym who jammed a blade into the sand and said "this is the blade that killed my husband, and my father." He's not seen the Orym who constantly brought up his dead husband and dead father-in-law. How's he going to react to seeing Orym once again push that?
(Might he start to keep slightly distant, because obviously Orym's not over his dead husband? Might he not want to get in the way of that memory? Oh, the tension and drama! It's great for the roleplaying table, but it's going to twist the blade deep for the ficcers!)
Will Orym and Dorian get together? Maybe. It seems more likely but we could very well see Dorian and Orym realizing that they love each other... but that they've been in love with illusions and dreams. Their friendship for each other might end up the most important thing. Or it might end up being the first step toward something more.
as much as it pains me to say, i think we may still have a while to go before dorian and orym admit they're both stupidly in love with one another and have been for some time.
i can totally see them having a good ol heart to heart next episode, but i don't know if that's where the feelings will come out. i largely suspect the "you've got me/i've got you" type of conversation will happen, as well as explaining what they've both been through, but i could see liam and robbie holding off just a little bit longer until that comes out because they love to torture us.
because the way i see the love confession happening is
one of them gets hurt and the other blurts it out later that night because time is short, life is precious, and love is the root of all
one of them can't physically hold the words in anymore and just blurts that shit right out during a private conversation
they get into a fight and yell at each other until one of them finally admits they're mad because they're scared/worried and because they love you, you fucking idiot (JUICY)
so in theory it could happen a multitude of ways, and i will eat up every single one because these two losers (affectionate) need each other!!
or, they could just come out and say the damn thing next episode

So I know no one will see this but I wanted to put my thoughts on Campaign 3 out there cuz why not!
First off, the WORLDBUILDING. I am blown away by the descriptions Matt is using and I wanna live in this city so badly.
The lighting effects! They make me so happy bc you can see the cast's childlike joy, it's adorable.
The new characters are very fun and enjoyable. Marisha seems to be having the time of her life playing Laudna, Ashton is fucking incredible, FCG is adorable, and Imogen gives me flashbacks to my family in Alabama with her accent, it's adorable.
My theory for Freshly Cut Grass is that he's basically the Iron Giant - built as a war machine, but either doesn't know it or refuses to become one. Can't wait for him to roll a Wisdom save and turn evil :3
The EXU characters! Some people are talking about the theory that they might only be there while Robbie is there, which I like just fine, but I also enjoy them on their own too, and if they're here to stay than great! Ashley seems to be having such a good time playing Fearne, and Orym is such a fun fighter (Liam must be enjoying playing him so much). And Dorian is always fun too.
BERTRAND!!! I called it the moment Travis opened his mouth. Again, popular theory is that he's not playing him forever, which again, I'd be okay with, but he's also very fun too. Travis is getting a kick out of playing a geriatric old fighter, and I love it.
Regardless of future plans, the cast is having FUN!!! And I'm so happy for them!!!
Also the fact that they're back at the table makes me so happy.
I think that's about it. Looking forward to seeing what happens with the four returning characters, but whatever happens, I'm enjoying it immensely.
