I bow to you, that couldn't have been written better. You describe it really well. I've seen pretty much all possible endings and after a few conversations here, I'm very disappointed.
I love my Dark Urge and I'm almost always moderately evil to totally evil. I will never see the Bhaal endings as I will never kill AA or Minthy. I would have only wished for a single Bhaal ending in which our loved ones will survive. Something like, when you become the Absolute you betray Bhaal because you are now powerful enough to do this, you turn to AA/Minthy with an evil smile and say "In OUR name", something that is requested by virtually all followers of AA/Minthi ... insert a kiss, levitate hand in hand from the brain, ... insert any evil scenario... At the end of days they die in an inner embrace as was prophesied. End. And you're right, they forgot about Sceleritas, I didn't even notice.
I think the emotional bond we have with your companions after all this time is completely underestimated.
