Summary
“You have followed me almost since I arrived,” she said. It was not a question. “You are not quiet enough to be my shadow and too unkempt to be subtle. Were we in the city above, the Watch or the Fist would cart you away, assuming you were just another impoverished orphan.” She paused, considering. “Which, I suppose, is not entirely inaccurate.”
Orin bristled, pulling her arm out of the butler’s bony grasp. “They would not. I can be anyone, anything I want.”
The older girl raised her eyebrows. “Show me, then.”

Summary
"... Nym hears Astarion put his dagger away with a satisfied sigh. 'Are you going to let all that blood go to waste? Thought you’d have your fill with him.'
Astarion stops directly in front of him, rosemary filling his lungs. He feels a flutter of nervousness at the proximity, a heat that climbs up his neck. 'And why would I do that, knowing I have something infinitely more delicious offering itself up to me?'"

A drabble every day of October, for Orin and my Durge.

Summary
This contagious disease could be called freedom, individuality, or love. These things were commonplace outside, yet rarely found within the Temple of Bhaal. Here, Orin was accustomed to giving everything, then waiting for Bhaal or grandfather to mercifully bestow a little in return.
But her blood kin was terminally ill. Orin had given the Dark Urge nothing, yet already received all the attention he could offer.- Language:

Summary
"My heart." Halsin kissed him so softly that it made Dark wail. "I'll give you what you want. But promise me, if this gets to be too much-"
"Yes." It was a lie, because nothing would ever be too much when it came to the Dark Urge. His body had been peeled opened and stitched back together. He'd been cored into and left to bleed and done the same -if not worse- to others. He deserved to be left wanting. "Yes, yes I'll tell you."
Halsin did not seem wholly convinced, but Dark pulled him into another kiss, slower this time, as Halsin liked it. Little teeth, no biting to the point of drawing blood and needing stitches. He would be good in this moment. He would follow Halsin's lead in this, and after, to the Shadowlands, where he would help raise a thousand orphans he did not care for, and bring peace to cursed soil that he could not bring to himself.

Summary
Orin's never been more beautiful—splayed out, wide-eyed and quivering, and entirely on display for them, showing the parts of her no one else ever gets to see. The strongest of Bhaal's Unholy Assassins now a tender, shaking thing, as vulnerable as the first day Kallian ever held her in their arms, a newborn babe that knew nothing but who she belonged to. If Bhaal's altar lies in the sanctuary, the operating table is Kallian's, and they've never had a more perfect offering.
Orin lets her sibling vivisect her.

Summary
With the Absolute vanquished, the disinherited godchild finds herself, for the first time, alone. If she was going to be haunted by the sins of her past, she preferred to know what those sins were. In exchange for a piece of her soul, Withers agrees to bring back someone who claimed to know those sins better than anyone — Enver Gortash.
"That person you once knew… I don't think there's any bringing them back, either — not in the way you knew them."
She paused, thinking back on the few months her meager memory could retain. Someone had always been there to direct her — to a better or worse path, she couldn't always say. But they had pushed her forward at least. Always forward.
"I've changed," she said.
A shadow of pain passed ever so briefly on Gortash's face, then it was gone. He put on that practiced and easy smile — the same one he wore to patriars' balls and deals with devils alike.
"Then I'll simply have to get to know you all over again," said Gortash.

Summary
In a better world, it goes like this:
Two sorcerors who are both spawn, but in very different ways, meet at night when the vampire-spawn comes on orders of its master. The vampire reaches for the Bhaalspawn, gets bit for his trouble, and a brief battle follows, with nothing in particular to note about the fight. (There is something that happens immediately after, where another spawn invites herself to the scene and two sisters reunite, but this is not that story.)
In this world, it goes like this instead:
A Bhaalspawn and a vampire spawn share a bed, and would that this were a comedy instead of a tragedy. The sorceress balances on the edge of reverie, for once close to resting, when she hears the faintest noise. She opens her eyes to a shadow above their bed, lunges with her fangs bared, but the vampire is faster, and grabs her hair, keeping her teeth away from him. She feels a sting in her shoulder, and then the pull of a teleportation spell.
OR: I enjoy "Cazador Goes Wrong / spawn!Durge/Tav" AUs so much I simply had to write my own. This fic stands as an AU to the series it belongs to.

Summary
Brother harbors an exploitable soft spot for Orin, like a maggot-infested wound stretched a mile wide. And she knows it.
Orin laughs again, and twists, reaches until one of her hands is buried in his hair. Brother used to let her brush and braid it, sometimes, when she was younger and still practicing.
Now, she likes to see it all undone, like this. An unbroken stretch of gossamer white that drapes and tumbles over and well past both broad shoulders, like a burial shroud.
--
Three times Orin had her hair brushed for her. One time she does it herself. -

Summary
The crack in the wall of Helena’s room was too small for even Kallian to fit through, but she could still see through it, crouched in her secret, special room. She came here to play usually, to make as big a pile out of all the bones as she could, or to sort through looking for the head-bones, with their funny empty eyes and smiley teeth. This time, though, she wasn’t looking at the bones, peering through the crack with a hand over her mouth to stop herself giggling, because Helena and Sarevok were naked and doing something strange with their bodies.
Kallian the Black was born and raised in the cult of Bhaal, fully aware of her place as Bhaal’s Chosen and the favoured of all her siblings. How could she have anything less than the perfect childhood?
Snapshots of the Dark Urge’s life from age four to seventeen. (Prequel to the rest of the series, can be read standalone.)

Summary
Kallian’s been everything to Orin as the two of them grew--sibling, leader, lover, owner. And Orin has moulded herself to be everything to her too, to learn to worship with tongue and teeth, to be bloody dagger and fleshy shield, to split herself open to be sewn back together, to love and honour and obey.
Her fingers twitch at her side, aching to tear layers of respectable, restraining cloth from their bodies, to press flesh to flesh, kin to kin, to melt into Kallian until no one--no slimy, snivelling little lordling--can doubt she belongs there.
Kallian’s pet tyrant is glaring at her still.
Orin, Gortash and the Dark Urge arrive at Moonrise to meet with Ketheric and plot to start the Cult of the Absolute.
Gortash swears he’s about to end his relationship, Orin swears she’s happy in hers, Ketheric swears he has zero daughter issues to work through.
There's only one way the story of Orin and her sibling is ever going to end.
