We get us traveling into the 1700s and we get modern AU's

But what if our sweet old, non-modern storyline ac characters get transported into 2025

Specifically I'm referring to ac III / IV / Rogue era characters

Ik that for one I'd have them abstain from any of our processed snacks (sour patch kids, bubblegum, jelly beans etc) bcs if you ask me, some of these have enough chemicals and sugars to probably kill a man from the Revolutionary Era /hj

I'd love to continue on what else would go down but senioritis has made my brain feel like mush

When you're out of writer's block and get inspiration to write but it's inspiration to write your platonic yandere Jacob Frye fanfic instead of your IB English Higher Level essay

Looked at my U.S. history book because I have an exam on that soon and

It brought up, en quote, how at a certain point president Kennedy "unleashed his Irish temper" on some politicians because well John F. Kennedy's roughly 3rd-generation Irish American

Now the thing is it makes me wonder how would that look like on sweet old Shay Cormac

I didn't really pick up on enough cues from Rogue's gameplay to understand what would Shay look/act like when angry

But like

How would he lash out

How much would it take to bubble such anger out of him

Would it interfere with his communication with other Templars or would it make them want to interact with him less as, next to shunning him for being Irish AND Catholic, they also look down on him due to 'how he always has such a bad attitude with everyone'

On second hand

Nevermind I like the one I had before this theme better

Okay now I'm getting demotivated because I'm struggling with a good looking navigator 🫠

But like,,,, FUCK would I be wrong to not admit that sailor esque theme (ft. Connor) was an awesome idea and the appearance choice for the profile header, in your opinion, is pretty immaculate so now you can only have an editor's crisis like

Still working on the Hobbit Extended Essay here

And I'm thinking

Am I biased

Because like there isn't much to say and analyze on Smaug other than to confirm that he is inspired from Beowulf and he is a pure manifestation of greed

But it just does NOT feel right to have written 4 pages on Thorin's greed (and I would write even MORE if I had the time rn — thank fuck for revisions) and barely reach 2 with Smaug

[seviiul]

Update: senioritis has hit me HARD and I haven't gotten pretty much any work done

And I'm not even a senior

Today is the day it's due

I'm at 1600 words

Writing my Extended Essay on The Hobbit— particularly greed in the book and how it shows through Thorin and Smaug— and thought that "HM if I want to bring up that Thorin's greed partially had to do with his dwarven culture I should find documents for sourcing so I wouldn't look like I made it up"

So I asked for a quick reference for documents on ChatGPT so I could get an overview on where I could find information and

There's Tolkien's letters

His Appendices of Lord of The Rings

Literally the dwarven myths in The Silmarillion

And literally the books on History of The Middle Earth

I mean I don't particularly mind having a good chunk of sources but like

The draft is due in ~3 days

The maximum is 4000 words

I'm only on 1500 😅

The type of person my favorite Tolkien characters would fall for:

With Boromir, Éowyn, Éomer, Merry, Pippin, Fili, Kili, Thorin, Bilbo and Tauriel.

I know Tauriel technically isn’t a Tolkien character, but I love Evangeline Lily and I love red-haired women. Sue me.

——————————————————————————

Boromir:

An artist. It doesn’t matter what kind of artist; whether you practice in paintings, clay, paper, wood, writing etc., he would love an artist as a s/o. He is always quite busy himself, therefore he never found time and dedication to a hobby, so seeing his s/o being capable of - for example - making a small statue or candle holder from a block of clay would absolutely blow his mind. He would run around with it, showing it off to anyone. He does know when not to, though. If you don’t want others to see it, he would leave it as it is, but your art always passes through his eyes. He’d see you work and he’d see the finished product, even if it is not for him to see. He’s always intrigued by it. Make him something special that is for him personally, and you made this man’s whole week. Perhaps even his whole year. He’d put it up somewhere in his room for everyone’s eyes to see. The love this man holds for you and your art cannot be measured, honestly.

———

Éowyn:

Someone who is just as pigheaded and independent as she is, I believe. Obviously, there is no holding her back, but she can be insecure at times. She needs a s/o who will remind her of how strong she is and that she deserves anything this world has to offer. Someone who would follow her to the ends of Middle-Earth if it meant making her prove her worth. She has the constant need for validation as she grew up overlooked as Shieldmaiden instead of warrior, so she would love someone who would remind her of her worth and shower her in affections and compliments constantly. Even if it is not needed. She always appreciates it and cannot express her love for you whenever you show her how much she means to you.

———

Éomer:

An absolute sweetheart. Someone with a caring heart and good causes. Perhaps you have a soft spot for certain people or animals, but he’d love it. Someone who would remind him of the good left in the world. How something so dull can appear so colorful and prideful at times. A bit of sunshine after the rain. He has seen a lot of war and violence himself, so upon meeting someone who will remind him of the positive things in life, he would most likely fall in love at first sight. Give him a bouquet of flowers or a personally baked cake, and he’d melt on the spot. You’d always give him something temporary to show him that beautiful things might not be everlasting, but they can certainly cheer a person up. You’d give him a whole new perspective on life, and he loves it.

———

Merry:

A silent person, most likely introvert. I feel like Merry is fairly extroverted himself, but he’d love someone who is more to themselves. A person who does not parade around with an open mouth and open mind. Someone who holds back a bit more. Perhaps of shyness or purely the idea of not being comfortable around others. He would probably fall in love with a bookworm; someone who can spent the days in their room reading a good book without the need of socialization or fresh air. I can just imagine him coming home one day with you one the couch reading. He’d just wriggle his way into your arms, head on top of your chest and just stay like that while you keep your eyes on your book, you hand occasionally drifting down to roam through his hair. He’d love it.

———

Pippin:

Someone with great stories to tell. He’d love stories about literally anything. You could tell him about old fairytales or things that happened to you once, it doesn’t matter. Pippin loves a good story. You could just lay beside him at night and talk about a vacation you had years ago or a book you recently finished. He’s a sucker for it. I also feel like he would love someone who would join him in his occasional mischief, but also someone who would tone him down a bit and make sure he isn’t doing something too irresponsible. A bit like Merry, but with more control over brakes and consequences. But still someone who knows how to have fun, though. That’s the most important to him.

———

Fili:

Give. Him. A. Badass. Partner. Someone who can beat his ass in combat. Someone who always speaks their mind and isn’t afraid of the consequences. Fili would be absolutely smitten with a s/o like that. You don’t even need to draw a line at your actions, that is his job. He’d keep you in line whenever necessary. Speak up for what you believe in, fight for what you feel is right; it’s just the things that draws Fili to you. He needs someone who can just beat a pack of orcs in hand to hand combat without breaking a sweat. I know I gotta keep it pg, but this dwarf would instantly be turned on, there’s no way to sugarcoat it. He would love someone who could also think strategically, and create a clever solution to any plan, not necessarily thinking about what others want, but solely on that that needs to be achieved. He loves it. He would never shut up about it.

———

Kili:

A nerd. I am so sorry for the Tauriel and Kili shippers among us, but you cannot convince me that Kili would not be head over heels for someone who is incredibly smart or logical. Maybe you will tell him a bit about history, or an analysis about what his stupid actions might lead up to, but it’ll shut him up. Literal heart eyes. You could rant to him about anything about any subject you’d like. You can talk about geology for hours? He’d listen to it all. Invested in Mythology? He’d be in awe of everything you can info dump him about. He would probably brag about it in front of others about how smart his s/o is. He loves using it in arguments (which he will guaranteed get into. He does not know when to shut up.).

———

Thorin:

A musical and emphatic s/o. Thorin enjoys music more than he lets on, but if you can play any instrument (or even sing), his heart would be taken. He could listen to it for hours, occasionally even joining in - as he can sing and play harp, no I will never shut up about this. It does not even matter to him what genre it is. Whatever music it is you make, he will appreciate it and let you play in front of others if you give him permission to. Personally, I think he’d prefer someone who likes holding their music as something private, because it makes hearing it even more intimate, but if you are prepared to let others listen too, he would probably not shut up about it for the rest of the night. The empathic part speaks for itself; Thorin is not exactly good with emotions, so he needs someone who would tell him what to say and how to act at certain times to spare other’s feelings. It takes away the whole intimidating part about Thorin, that much is true, but a king needs to be decent and polite, and not rough and stern, correct?

———

Bilbo:

A decision maker. Bilbo is, obviously, a people pleaser. He needs someone who will help him out in decisions and conversations. Someone who has a mind set out on a single thing and will not wander from it. Someone with a strategic and steadfast mind. A smart, and quick thinker. He loves riddles, so if you were able to return one at the same time he’d asked you one, he’d be on cloud nine. Perhaps also someone he could just turn to whenever he’s frustrated or in trouble. Where he could say what he wants to without getting any response. He’d probably love an s/o who would walk up to a waiter to tell them he wanted ketchup with his fries.

———

Tauriel:

Someone who takes joy in the smaller things. Maybe a little daisy in a big field, or a simple bird bathing in a river bank, but those little things that make you happy, would make her absolutely adore you. When you always manage to find something positive or look on the brighter side of things, no matter how desperate they might look. Tauriel is a realistic thinker, and it often had negative influences, so with a s/o who could convince her to see the good side would be a great relief for her. A charming person who could cheer up anyone, or could make others laugh, even as things seem dark, would be amazing for her. She would even admire you for it. She loves that about you!

Okay but a platonic Connor, Reader, and Haytham dynamic can be so funny if done right

Think about it, while also ignoring this tragedy the death fallout between Connor's and Haytham's relationship was

You have this well woven friendship with Connor and help him out with less hazardous Assassin missions and other domestic things within the Davenport homestead

And then you learn about him meeting his father and plans for working with him, how he has so many questions and thoughts about their interaction. At this point you have ideas that there's at least some form of beef towards Haytham, one sided or not

And there's a certain point, for a certain reason, when you become involved and see first hand how Haytham and Connor go along their father-son dynamic

And surprisingly you get along with Haytham??? High probability that your agreements don't come in with your ideals, but you get along just great with other things like interests, experiences or shit talking people while Connor can only stare at you like "Wtf man I thought you're on my side"

And at just a moment when he needs to speak with him on something while the three of you are walking, you can hear him gently whisper "traitorrr" while passing by to approach Haytham

..IF we try to make something more romantic out of this, it can be two things—

Either 1) with Connor, sweet yet a little angsty where at a certain point, when just the two of them are together, Haytham questions the dynamic between Connor and the friend of his. Upon learning that he has grown to romantically like them, he approves of his choice and advises him to pursue them, a fatherly aspect inside him happy to hear about his son's love life and the fact that he has met his soon-to-be lover before things turn to the worst for them both;

Or 2) where Reader starts to get into Haytham while Connor gets a long lasting headache that lasts throughout their interactions, knowing that his friend has a crush on his dad
