#the layers… the parallels to canon xarrai’s weird relationship with gortash….#the dynamic of ‘you would have made a better banite’ ‘maybe you’re right.’#(in another life he’s right. in a thousand thousand other worlds they are the black hand’s plaything. but not this one.)#the constant lying and double crossing and manipulation and the utter devotion to one another like a duty. like a scared child is devoted#to an angry god.#and to have all of it lost now? just gone?#delicious.#especially in parallel to canon!xar’s relationship with him where he represents everything they were supposed to be but refused.#he is what they’ve run from their whole life. he is the destiny they refused to seize. nothing scares them worse. but still#they look at him and think ‘i could have loved you in another life.’#either way they kiss him before they kill him. because they have to. because they can’t not.#sorry i’m insane. rn. about them#oc. durge!xarrai#oc. xarrai
