#assassins creed modern au

[magniferaindicat]

Modern AU Assassins Creed 3 but it’s Haytham and Achilles having a bitter child custody relationship once Haytham figures out he has a kid…Haytham took Shay and Achilles took Ziio (platonic) (she shittalked Haytham after dumping him to Achilles and Achilles just decided Haytham’s a lil bitch who didn’t deserve her)

they’re not even divorced either but Ziio left Ratonhnhaké:ton in Achilles’ care not knowing Haytham would’ve wanted to be in his life 😭

But now baby Connor gets two rich wine aunts in the form of Hope Jensen on Achilles’ side and Jenny Scott on Haytham’s. This boy is LOVED and CARED for even if his own FATHERS are. NOT GOOD AT THIS

In a better explanation:

Achilles Davenport: Ratonhnhaké:ton’s legal guardian after Ziio’s death, technically his godfather. Owns the land of the Homestead where all the assassins and homesteaders make their homes and livings. Connor doesn’t call Achilles “dad” or anything but in most respects Connor considers Achilles a very important paternal figure in his life. Achilles meanwhile is like “oh this brat? He’s a lil shithead but I love him I guess”

Haytham Kenway: Y’know the deal, Connor’s biological father, CEO of a research branch of Abstergo dedicated to ancient or older technologies and history. Didn’t realize Connor was his biological son until Connor was like 17 because Connor got arrested for vandalizing his car after being egged on to do it by his cousins Ezio and Desmond. He and Connor try to build some kind of bond bc of Haytham’s own daddy issues but wow they don’t get along 😭

On Achilles side we got the colonial assassins and the homesteaders providing Connor a loving and nurturing and somewhat chaotic due to Liam upbringing and on Haytham’s side we got. Jennifer Scott and Shay Patrick Cormac bc at best Thomas Hickey would offer 17 year old Connor a beer and Haytham would slap him for it

Guys, have we considered… 🤨

[hauntedparadisebandana]

More Desmond hcs cause I love him so much.

Desmond is the type of person to sleep everywhere but where he's supposed to. The others can't figure out if it's because of the bleeding effect and his episodes or if he's genuinely sleeping in weird places. They had an idea to lock his room door at night, but they didn't want to treat him like an asylum patient. There's been a few instances where Shaun has walked into the kitchen and has found des sleeping on the counter or even inside the cabinets.

"Hmmm, I'm in a chamomile mood today," mumbles Shaun as he walks into the kitchen yawning.

He fills the kettle with water and puts it on the stove. He lazily leans against the counter and waits, trying not to fall asleep. Then, a muffled voice fills his ears.

"You making tea? I want some too, please."

Shaun's eyes shoot open like he's seen Jesus himself. He stands up straight and frantically looks around.

"Christ, I'm hearing voices... I should've done the evaluation." He runs a hand down his face, rethinking his life choices.

"Nope, no ghost. Just your good pal Desmond." At this, Shaun is confused. Where is his voice coming from? He then gets the bright idea to look inside the cabinets, the only place Desmond could hide. Crouching down his opens up a door, and lo and behold, desmond is in there.

"Why on earth are you in the cabinets desmond?" Shaun says with an exasperated sigh.

"I'm actually not sure, I just woke up in here. Ugh my back hurts."

"Well, yeah, you fell asleep crammed inside a cabinet."

"About that tea, though, I want some."

"Oh- uh yeah, sure, tea for you too." He closes the cabinet door, "Wait!" The door opens again, "what is it, Desmond?" "Can you add honey to mine, please? " "Yes, you can have honey."

The same goes for rebecca and Lucy. Rebecca remembers the last time she tried to go to bed peacefully, she didn't.

Rebecca yawns and turns over, eyes still closed. She's feels something is off, it's warmer than usual, way warmer, and her bed feels...heavier? She opens her eyes, coming face to face with Desmond. All snuggled up under her sheets, leg thrown over hers, staring like this was an everyday occurrence.

"Jiminy Christmas! Fuck Desmond! what the hell are you doing in my bed?!" Rebecca whisper yells.

"Your bed so warm, you mind if I sleep here? I think my heater is broken in my room."

Rebecca sighs out loud,

"Did you make sure it was plugged in? Cause you did that last time des."

Desmond thinks back to his heater. Now that he thinks about it, it probably wasn't plugged into the wall. But who cares? He's warm now.

"Probably not, but it's too late. I'm already lying down."

"Ughhhhhh, fine, you can stay. Just don't hog the blanket, and don't kick me."

"Ok ok I won't. Goodnight becca."

"Night des."

FYI, Rebecca got kicked at least 3 times that night.

Lucy has had her share of being scared shitless by Desmond, too, in her room as well.

Lucy sits up and stretches, just waking up. Checking her clock, she sees its 5am, no use in going back to sleep now.

"I could really start the grocery list today. The fridge is pretty empty -" she freezes, holding back a yell with her eyes wide as she stares straight into the corner at her hanging chair. Something tall, resembling a person is in it, its way to dark in her room to see.

She shudders, reaching for her bed side lamp she flicks it on in a hurry.

"Oh what the hell."

There sits Desmond, sitting inside Lucy's chair with a blanket draped over him, he even brought his own pillow. Yet he's so tall. He looks a bit uncomfortable.

She stands up and walks over to Desmond, patting his shoulder.

"Des wake up, you can sleep in my bed."

"Hmmmm?" He groans, not fully awake yet.

"You can sleep in my bed. You look uncomfortable over here."

"Hm, thanks," Desmond goes to stand, "Ugh, wait, headache."

"From the bleeds?" "No, stood up too fast."

Lucy grabs Desmond by the arm and leads him to the bed. "Sleep now, I know you barely get any as it is." She expects a rebuttal but is surprised when he is fast asleep again, and this time, he looks comfortable. She leaves him there, making her way into the living room where Rebecca and Shaun are watching whatever is good on TV.

"Shaun, Becca, we need to get this Desmond sleeping situation under control."

"Agreed"

"Agreed"

some kind of. miscellaneous conversation sometime during ac3?? this was actually part of a much longer scene that went in a more serious direction than I originally planned once I started drawing it. I ended up starting over, but I couldnt bring myself to delete the pages I had already started (which is why the dialogue's a little janky bc I decided to redo it before I got to the lettering stage RIP) so I cleaned them up a bit to post :') get some sleep, desmond.

[fanfenomenon]

my fave ac3 modern au tropes:

CEO haytham and his hot personal assistant (and very special “friend”) shay cormac

divorced hayziio LMFAO (but they’re civil)

history major connor

i also like tropes where ziio and haytham stay together but ziio eventually… dies… (because i live for that angst)

feel free to add more i feel like im missing some tropes here

[ethan-acfan]

So, since I have nothing better to do, I wanna talk about my Desmond mafia king AU. Basically, once Desmond leaves the brotherhood and gets a job at Bad Weather, he ends up getting involved in a gang after one of the lower members tried to run out on their tab. Being young and tired of constantly worrying about if the assassins will find him, he decides to join up with them for protection and climbs the ranks pretty quickly, becoming the leaders right-hand man within 3 years considering he already had a bit of combat and stealth training

Except the twist is that Clay is the leader of the gang and is an ally to the assassins. And that's how Desmond gets reinvolved with the assassins but on his own terms this time. But then Clay gets taken by Abstergo and Desmond loses his fucking mind

If anyone wants to write this, please do, we need more writers in this fandom, and I have way too many projects to even hope to finish writing this in a timely manner, just make sure to actually tell me about it so I can read it

[axolotlart]

Hayziio :3

It's another modern au that I got out of my ass, it's where Haytham is a gangster and well kaniehti:io a type of detective or police officer, and well he uses Haytham for investigations: V. and well...ziio is a bit short :^

[vadlings]

utter art style crisis. frye twins be upon ye

[gwen-the-assassin]

Haytham: *at the morning table with the New York Times crossword puzzle* Charles, help me with this crossword puzzle. What is a six letter word for disappointment?

Charles Lee: Connor *not even looking up from his morning toast.*

Connor: *four years old coloring at the breakfast table, doing nothing wrong*

Shay: add one more letter and you can make it Charles.

[magniferaindicat]

I got more.

• Connor the kind of guy who brings in stray cats and dogs immediately off the streets. Achilles likes them and has no issues, Haytham needs a lil time.

• Connor brings in a tiny cat to Haytham’s penthouse and Haytham is at first like “I do not want that thing in my house!”

• 10 minutes later Haytham is holding the cat and frowning like “why doesn’t it purr? I think we need to bring it to a vet.”

• Connor’s like “Bayek said he’s willing to take it.” And now Haytham’s like “Hm I don’t know. I think she needs more vet visits.”

• Oh boy he named the cat Tiger. “Because he’s orange. And he looks like the cat from American Tail. You loved that movie when you were a kid”

• Connor posts a video to his social media of Haytham sleeping with the cat and he’s like “my dad and the cat he didn’t want”

• Meanwhile Achilles 😭 always taking in every animal Connor brings home. They help animals before letting them go OR Achilles just keeps them because now he’s got an empty nest and the animals keep him company

• Achilles likes knitting hoods for the turkeys hehe.

• Achilles prefers the dogs over the cats. His pride and joy is their dog named Nicodemus because I know those guys loved Don Bluth movies 😭

• Myriam and Prudence and Warren spend a lot of time in Achilles’ home to help Achilles with the pets. Myriam thinks Connor and Achilles need to let some go but Prudence and Warren are like “They love and keep loving. Let them be.”

Modern au assassins creed 3 hcs GO!

• Achilles raised Connor since he was 13 after Ziio passed away. Connor met Haytham officially when he was 17 because Connor vandalized Haytham’s car for ignoring him for so long and when Haytham had Connor arrested that’s when he realized he had a kid

• Haytham and Connor tried to build a relationship after that. The tension between Achilles and Connor got worse with that but to make things worse, Connor and Haytham just don’t get along 😭

• CEO Haytham where Connor just kind of bursts into his office sometimes just to hang out and bother his dad. And when Haytham asks him why Connor’s like “you got 20 years to make up for” so Haytham’s like “ugh”

• Shay is Haytham’s… “traveling representative”. When he comes back to the office he spends a lot of time in the boss’s place…

• company Christmas party where Thomas Hickey gets drunk off his ass. Connor asks why Haytham hasn’t fired him yet. “He’s a good worker. Most of the time.”

• Connor’s assassin recruits are his book club. The other assassins (Ezio, Altaïr, Desmond, Jacob, Evie, Arno, Bayek, Aya, Kassandra, Eivor) are his cousins. You can usually see those cousins doing parkour in abandoned buildings

• Ezio and Desmond were the ones who got Connor to vandalize Haytham’s car btw. Altaïr and Jacob helped and Evie tried to convince them not to but Kassandra and Bayek and Aya and Arno supported but weren’t part of the act LOL

• Connor’s legal name is Ratonhnhaké:ton ofc but he does usually introduce himself as Connor Davenport (Achilles adopted him). After meeting Haytham, Connor hyphenates his last name to “Connor Davenport-Kenway”, which pisses Achilles the fuck off

• Shay, Achilles, and Haytham having the most awkward history ever…and now they share a kid 😭

• Ziio being alive means she goes off on Haytham and Achilles for being jerks to her son…Connor’s like “TELL EM MOM”

• Connor gets picked up by cops a lot bc he and his cousins and his friends keep breaking and entering into prohibited places like old malls or old hospitals…Achilles and Haytham bail him out tho

Summary: an early start to the morning gives inspiration to your art

A/n - for the May prompt from @codextober // based off a scene from The Notebook

Found on masterlist 10

You could feel the sun’s warm rays beating down on you. Wincing at the feeling, you rubbed the sleep from your eyes as you stretched your limbs across the bed.

Reaching over to where he normally slept, you felt a faint warm spot of where he had been at your side last night. A piece of paper greeted you instead as you adjusted to read its scribbled message.

Took one of the horses out for a ride, will be back soon. You looked so peaceful.

You smiled sleepily at his note before you rose for the rest of the day.

The smell of coffee filled the spacious house you shared with each other. Running a ranch that allowed travelers to enjoy the natural scenery from horseback was a successful but time consuming occupation, so you enjoyed the quieter seasons with your love.

Getting an idea, you finished off the last of your drink before heading out to the sun room near the porch.

Painting was always your go to as a means to unwind, from meeting Connor at one of your art galleries years ago to letting your mind wander in daydreams.

Two large arms wrap around you as you felt Connor place a kiss on your cheek.

“It looks beautiful….especially the view of the flowers near the lake.”

You tilted your head slightly to get a good view of him as you got your first morning kiss of the day.

“Thank you, my sweet Ratonhnhake:ton…”

The modern squad has my heart, so here's some headcanons!

Desmond, lucy, and rebecca all have piercings. Desmond has his tongue, belly button, lobes, and snake bites. Rebecca has a septum, lobes, and her right eyebrow. (Rebecca did desmonds). Lucy had her nose pierced and her first lobes.

Rebecca tries to get shaun to listen to her type of music, but he brushes her off after 5 minutes and doesn't seem interested.

She's surprised when he plays his playlist and hears Waffle by Sevendust.

The group are big horror movie fans except shaun. He claims they're "unrealistic" and are bad.

Rebecca once shaved desmonds hair and dyed it platinum blonde. He rocked it for 3 months before he went back.

Lucy, rebecca, and desmond all paint each other's nails, they mostly do black on desmond. It gives him something to do while not in the Animus. Rebecca managed to get shaun to join them, he rocks the black nails too.

One time for halloween they went to a haunted house for fun. A clown had popped up from around the corner which scared the shit out of desmond, and he punched the scare actor. They haven't been back to one since and desmond now fears clowns. Rebecca teases him about the incident every year.

Desmond and rebecca are the number one Rob Zombie fans.

Desmond despises black coffee, he'd rather enjoy his caramel frappuccinos.

The group has matching friendship bracelets.

Lucy is somehow a beast at Mario Kart, she wins every time. Shaun has dedicated his soul to beating her. (He comes in 2nd each time).

Rebecca has a photo album just for funny pictures of Shaun.

Shaun can cook up a mean brisket.

During the fall, lucy pulls out all of her pumpkin spice and cinnamon candles and decorates.

Each of them have a board game that they are really good at. For rebecca it's uno, for desmond it's twister, for lucy it's guess who, and for shaun it's monopoly.

Rebecca finally convinced shaun to let her pierce his first lobes. It went smoothly, and shaun actually enjoys them (but he can't let her know that).

Shaun and desmond bond over their love for Marvel movies. They've seen every movie there is and even own merch.
