Anything I can do (other than stop dying) to improve and help get this boss down?

Aight, sorry, power went out and I was looking anything to analyze except council, cus it's such a dogshit fight to analyze for gameplay mistakes. Firemager already pointed this out, but ye, one of your biggest issues is that you're casting FB before ES. We should always hit a 34s DR, and it looks like you are in most situations, but we can get a 42s DR with lust pretty easily with EH. Just gotta make sure your ES goes out first so it can be put on CD immediately.
You also usually have dead-even casts of both FB and ES, and your ES should be pulling ahead by a decent margin. A big bonus of EH is fitting in extra ES casts, so make sure you're sending that on CD.
As for council-specific issues, you're just not cleaving. You'll never parse if you stay on one boss and don't ST cleave the other. You'll get a lot of extra Scint damage if you focus on the grouped bosses
I think you could prolly drop some mastery and put more into haste too. I fit 30 additional casts of Dis into a kill that took a similar amount of time, some of which is definitely explained by me having ~2,600 more haste than you. We just get a lot less out of mastery so I wouldn't be surprised to see sims suggesting just that.

Got cha
I’ll keep that in mind as we prog and reclear and all that
I’m also not super worried about parsing as my raid group seems to damage pip at a much slower pace than the other two

yeah but they can also switch who Urctos is on. You're essentially giving up damage for a mental roadblock
