Spending Halloween with them [preference - Assassin’s creed]

A/N: Since I can’t celebrate Halloween, this is my way of showing appreciation for those who do :)

Alexios: He wouldn’t be very impressed by the holiday, but would find your enthusiasm amusing and rather contagious if he had to be honest. For your sake, he would join in on the decorating and if you insist on going trick or treating, he wouldn’t mind going with you. He doesn’t really care about costumes though. He just thinks they’re childish. But if he decides to dress up, he always picks a Greek god kind of costume. Just picture what a snack he is in an Ares outfit.

Kassandra: She’s totally into it. Decorating? Check. Candy? Check. Costumes? Check. Couple costumes? Oh, you know it. Especially the couple costumes. It’s always fun with her because she loves making her own decorations and most of them actually look good, even if the process of making is a bit silly but hey, you have a laugh or two right?

Bayek: He isn’t one for trick or treating. He prefers to stay home and give out candy to the children who come knocking and in fact, all the children in your area know him and never miss your house, because he gives out the most candy. Even if he picks trick, it would be because he wants to have a laugh, but still gives out sweets anyway. Usually he would dress up like an Egyptian god and would love it if you joined him in that style, but wouldn’t mind if you have your own idea. 

Aya: She likes going to the Halloween themed parties, just for a good time and to blow off some steam. She spends a lot of time on her costume and wants everything to be perfect about it. Every year she tries different things - super hero, mythic creature, movie characters, you name it. But what she loves the most is the bonding time she spends with you in decorating and carving pumpkins.

Altair: Um... don’t really expect him to be too enthusiastic. “Babe, it’s Halloween!” “It’s just another day of the year!” Don’t pay him any mind, though. He wouldn’t ruin it for you. The most he would do is carve a pumpkin and is surprisingly talented in it. His carved pumpkins are a real picturesque aesthetic. Usually he lets you deal with trick or treaters, but he secretly loves giving out handfuls of candy to children who knock on the door. Do not bother him with a costume. He thinks they’re ridiculous.

Malik: Well, he isn’t a killjoy that’s what I’ll say... But he has a weird habit of saying unnecessary facts about Halloween to the kids who just went out to have some fun... and not get educated about how Halloween originated from the Celtic people... or how it’s celebrated around the world. He enjoys decorating your home with various things, but don’t expect him to wear a costume...

Ezio: Did someone say Halloween? You know Ezio is gonna go all out! Especially on the costumes. Trust him in picking them out and he will make sure you will have the best ones in probably the entire city. His personal favorite is a sexy vampire and you know he’s gonna nail both the look and the behavior. He’s even up for some roleplay if you’re too later in the night ;) Posts all the aesthetic pictures of the decorations, the pumpkins and especially himself on his social media.

Connor: He celebrates because of you, really. He just loves seeing the smile on your face when you’re having fun. He would love to decorate and carve pumpkins with you, even though he’s a bit bad at it, but it’s the thought that counts! He isn’t one for parties either and would much rather stay home, watch a scary movie and give out candy to the trick or treaters. And yes, he gives a lot of candy. Like, a lot.

Haytham: He doesn’t really care about Halloween and thinks it’s just a children’s holiday. Still, he would make sure your house is the best looking with all the expensive lights and special effects. If you want to dress up, he would be more than willing to buy you a beautiful, good quality costume that will take everyone’s breath away. Is a little cheap about the candy though...

Edward: Let’s be real, he welcomes any day where there’s a reason for drinking. He will most definitely go to any party or even better if the party is in your place. He will also go dressed as a pirate and bonus points for you if you also go as a pirate or as his first mate. Bonus points for when you’re alone, I mean wink wink. 

Shay: The only way you will find him celebrating Halloween is at home with a scary movie. It still counts, right? He just isn’t one for celebrating anything. The most he can do is reluctantly carve a pumpkin or two and that is only if you don’t laugh at what he has created. He wouldn’t turn down trick or treaters, though, but don’t expect much.

Arno: He loves it! He would even start talking about it one month earlier and expect by the middle of October your house to look like one from a horror movie. Also expect to watch scary movies throughout the entire month. Costumes? Yes please. Especially if you’re up for couple costumes. His favorite is either a vampire or an aristocrat and would go all out to make it look legit and perfect. But his favorite part is the little cookies shaped like ghosts or skulls.

Elise: Like Arno, she too would start celebrating early. Pumpkin spice latte? Every. Single. Day. Aesthetic photos for Instagram? All day every day. She loves carving pumpkins with you and watching scary movies. Her favorite costume is Catwoman, because she just adores the outfit and the mask. She also loves giving out handfuls of candy to the children and watch them smile when they see their favorite.

Jacob: We all know he’s absolutely going trick or treating. He would either go as the Joker or Pennywise and Evie would laugh, telling him how he’s already a clown and there’s no need for highlighting it. He has plenty of fun on the holiday and if you watch a scary movie, he would poke your side just when a jumpscare is about to happen just to get a rile out of you. Would probably fight a kid over a candy bar yes or no

Evie: Expect her to buy every type of candy there is at the store and ask each individual child what their favorite candy is so she can give it to them. Would dress up as something that isn’t really tacky or over the top. Maybe a goth or something historical like a shield-maiden. Was not amused when Jacob appeared at the door asking for candy “I take it back, you aren’t a clown. You are the entire circus!” But most of all, she loves having fun with you and decorating the house, making a mess in the kitchen with cookie batter and pumpkin insides.

Desmond: Honey, the best costume he would come up with is a sheet over himself and calling it a ghost. Is so not in the mood, the only thing he’s okay with is a scary movie and all the candy. The candy part is because he doesn’t want to make the children sad or throw eggs at your house. He thinks he’s too grown up to celebrate Halloween.

Clay: Guess who always picks the costume that has the word “sexy” in it. Like, he has to show at least SOME part of his body and not once has he offered you do the same...in the bedroom. When you ask him about Halloween, the first thing that pops in his mind is candy and you in a revealing costume. Jeez Clay. His trademark is singing “I’ll take you to the candy shop” to you.

Daniel: He TRIES okay? He wouldn’t wear anything, but is totally okay with decorating with you, carving pumpkins and tries his BEST. It doesn’t always work but don’t judge. He’s only doing it because he wants to see you smile. If you’re better at carving pumpkins, he would draw on some faces which you can carve out. And later, you can treat the kids with candy and spend the evening cuddling and watching scary movies. So wholesome.

Shaun: This boi is a disaster! He would either spend his time lecturing you about the holiday or attempt to carve a pumpkin, only to fail at it and rage quit. One time he almost fell off a ladder, trying to put up some lights and Rebecca almost choked laughing. Since then, he decided it wasn’t his thing and doesn’t even try anymore.

last movie i watched: The Killing of a Sacred Deer

last show i watched: Dragula

when did i create my blog: 2012, i think

what do i post: mostly The Aesthetique™, color-wise it’s a lot of white and pastels (especially pink), content-wise it ranges from angelic, witchy, fantasy, haute couture, creepy, cutesy, i really like contrasting elements, prim/punk, angelic/goth, cyber/witch, etc.

i also reblog a lot of funny text posts

occasionally nsfw, but never anything graphic, especially when it comes to gore, i use this blog to really soothe myself a lot

i designed it to be a window into my soul, as cheesy as that sounds

last thing i googled: “iphigenia adah” because i watched the Killing of a Sacred Deer which is inspired by the Greek myth of Iphigenia and I wondered if there was any connection to the Biblical Adah

do you have any other blogs: only a few

@kekett is my informal blog for memes and a darker more disturbing aesthetic, i’m actually really proud of it and it’s another interesting side to my personality (it has like zero followers though lol)

@valkywitch is mostly used for cataloging references for drawing or design ideas or historical fashion and trivia that inspires me for the novels i want to eventually write

it’s also a fandom blog, a really random one too, mostly for Sailor Moon but Final Fantasy and Riverdale pop up a lot, among others

@occultpop is a project i’ve been meaning to really launch, basically i want to document and detail all the occult and mind control references that can be found in media and pop culture, especially ones i’ve never seen addressed before like Sailor Moon which i’ve drafted posts for

it’s all in good fun, if anyone has any pop culture ideas for what else i should cover just send asks there or here on my main blog

do you get asks: occasionally, usually guys flirting because of my selfies lol

one time there was someone in my asks calling me antisemitic because I pointed out the overwhelmingly pagan elements of Easter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

why did you choose your url: i don’t remember what it was originally, but it used to be Puffy-the-Werewolf-Layer which i always found cute and hilarious because i’m a Buffy fan and have loved werewolves since i was little

but after a while i found it too porny-sounding so i changed it to Saint-Puffy, because saints fascinate me and i wouldn’t mind becoming one

in retrospect St. Vincent probably helped inspire the choice, she’s amazing

i got the irl nickname of Puffy years ago and it perfectly encapsulates me for various reasons 

(i love when people try to guess the context for me being named it)

following blogs: 3,095

i like a wide variety

favorite colors: white, silver, pink, holographic, pastels, denim, fringe, black 

average hours of sleep: very unstable circadian rhythm, usually like 12 at a time i think because i stay up for a couple days before crashing usually

lucky number: 11, 999, 3

instruments: knees, mouth, hands

what am i wearing: denim bustier, Kardashian ripped jeans (because i am extra af, even when lounging around)

how many blankets do I sleep with: i have two blankets and a sheet on my futon, lately i’ve been using all three but usually it’s just a light blanket and a sheet

dream trip: a European tour

Damn. I haven’t played Origins properly in a while now, I never even got around to finishing curse of the pharaoh despite it being just so fucking awesome. 

I love this game. I honestly love it so much more than Odyssey despite Odyssey having the ability to be gay. Alexios is just so fucking generic looking compared to Bayek. And I’m gay and shallow so I want to play with the attractive character to me, Kassandra kicks ass and I’m playing her in a separate save but Alexios is my main. 

Plus like, from a personal sort of hero I want to play standpoint, I’ll take genuinely lovely man who made his life out of helping and saving people who was emotionally broken and went on a revenge based killing spree over merc. who for some reason has gone off to try and reunite a family that left him for dead and quite genuinely doesn’t seem to deserve this reunion and sort of seems to stumble into saving greece while constantly expecting rewards for small easy things and saying people should pay them and only occasionally letting me say no you don’t need to. 

Bayek is just so fucking good. And so fucking nice and sweet. Like I get if you only played the main story how you could call him boring and grim, but even then, you did meet Shadiya, right? You had those same interactions? How little attention were you playing that you insist he’s a heartless unfeeling shit head. Despite the main differences between he and Aya, which the game draws your attention to in the hidden ones, is how he is incapable of not having that heart, of shutting himself off from humanity and caring and interacting on a more involved level. 

Aya is the full on edge lord. And it’s great. But like. So often the same people either claim he’s ‘too broody’ at the same time as ‘too boring’, which always comes across as he has emotions and is friendly to people who need his help as opposed to shutting down and treating everything like business. And they say all that while saying Aya would be a better hero, so it really isn’t about not wanting a broody character cause she is queen emily darkness dementia or what the fuck ever.

Go play the fucking mission where you jump off things to entertain children, or replay the Shadiya one where he talks to her and interacts with her, then fucking tell me he’s broody in any sense other than the chicken is broody over her eggs sense okay. 

Also a game where after not playing for many months besides booting up discovery tour for nephew, it’s a game I can jump into and say huh what should I do to relearn how to play? And the answer is fight a god. 

And maybe it’s because of where I was playing, the higher level DLC area, but it was flat out more challenging than Odyssey has ever been. And it was FUN. And I think the change in how combat and abilities worked is a big part of that, Odyssey is far more RPG, you use set skills mapped to buttons and easily usable. In Origin how you use abilities and skills is much more based on tools, timing and position. It’s different and for me required actually paying more attention not just using the same routine and choice of moves over and over like fights in Odyssey do. 

The way clothing appearance worked in Origin was like 10kX more my thing too. All aesthetic, no stats to your appearance. Your stats were tied to constant and upgradable armor items that moved across all clothing. And there were just so many more choices in clothing looks. And for a shallow bitch. That shit’s good. 

It really feels like a saints row sort of transition in game. From a GTA clone to its own ridiculous off the wall crap. With 2 and The Third existing on the scale between the two ends, and which is your favorite can depend on so much but especially where on that scale you like things. How far removed from the core material you want it. For me 2 and The Third are the best games overall, even if I probably play 4 more. 

And Origins was like the Saints Row 2. It was a big change, but the game was still very Assassins Creed and not holey RPG yet. Whereas Odyssey is so fucking RPG. I love Odyssey, I really fucking do. It’s beautiful, there are some amazing characters, although I notice no one lining Kassandra and Alexios or any man and woman from the game up to compare face textures and details like they did the goth cowboy chick from overwatch despite it being an obvious issue. aNYWAYS.
