I’m forever haunted by the scene after Joseph is shot. His body collapses heavily, hitting the stage with a heart-wrenching thud that reverberates through the still audience. Children’s screams pierce the air, their cries mingling with the frantic shouts of adults rushing to shield and comfort them, as everyone becomes hauntingly aware of the lurking danger. Fellow actors rush out only to be greeted by the horrifying sight of Joseph’s lifeless, blood-soaked form. Time stops, each moment stretching into an eternity while simultaneously racing forward, making it feel as though he was there one moment and gone the next…

@bittenlore !
it's quiet today. a gloomy, miserable looking sky, the patter of rain against the windows only adding to the atmosphere. the sketch under his pencil, too, is all dark grays and hard lines, touches of black around the eyes, something brooding in it ... then brianna's presence enters the room. she finds her place along the closest armchair as if she intends to be here for a while. again. some tension in his shoulders ebbs. "my little protector," he murmurs by way of greeting, willingly reminding them both of her recent display of loyalty; when that bennett witch had tried something altogether suicidal on him at that birthday party, and his hybrid demonstrated precisely why that had been a mistake on her part. "if you're bored, i'm sure katerina is free to chew on. unless we think evangeline is taking out some of her never-ending anger issues."

From @fancysteawberrybeard
Yes! This is wonderful! Big fan of how chill Adha seems in this. I can just picture her finding herself displaced in time and space, in the middle of some... uhhhh... "alone time" with three complete strangers, staring at them for a few good seconds and then... she shrugs. "The Isu's got to Isu I guess". Cut to Desmond and Altaïr, faces almost pressed together, screaming incoherently because of the surprise.
Unless she's meant to be 100% Desmond, in which case he's just confused by why fate decided to switch him right in that moment... only to probably just have the exact same reaction.
I forgot to mention that Adha did know they were going to switch but she didn’t know ‘when’.
The way it worked was that Adha took the ‘key’ from Iram before returning to Jerusalem so Altaïr could catch up with her. The key is what traded their places.
And that key is this…
Tumblr media
(Look at that sword. There’s noooo way that’s not Isu related!)
So yeah, Adha wasn’t surprised when she suddenly finds herself being part of a very interesting ‘alone time’. She was more annoyed that she didn’t get Altaïr’s dick one last time before she got transferred. XD
(And… technically yes? The Adha in this fic is Desmond Miles reborn with his memories so she is Desmond Miles but, at the same time, she has also lived her life as Adha)
Hi! I was thinking about your reblog of my AssCreed headcanon list and I got this idea... Adha and Desmond character swap?
Desmond just wakes up in the Levant without any reason while Adha gets transported into the future because of their weird Chalice connection.
Bonus points if the switch happens at a really awkward time, like Des wakes up in bed with Altaïr and Adha with Lucy/Shaun/Rebecca (... basically whatever modern day character you ship Desmond with, or maybe all of them if you wanna go the poly route)
And what do you know, maybe Desmond knows enough about the future to warn everybody about Al Mualim and Kadar gets to live, and maybe Adha is well-versed enough in Isu bullshit to save Lucy and the world (and also Clay, somehow? Can we fit him in there as well?).
The reblog in question and the tags I included:
#no 3 though would mean that calling adha the chalice meant, #she was similar to desmond miles, #maybe she was a failed version, #and there's a few like her, #with desmond being the final 'product', #i personally headcanon adha is called the chalice because she has a specific isu blood that can open something, #like maybe the lost city of iram, #also known as atlantis of the sands
Honestly, Desmond being reborn as Adha has been a Yew Branches idea of mine since last year mostly because:
The term Chalice would mean it’s meant to hold something (as @fanworldbuildingfun once stated) and considering the most famous Chalice is meant to hold blood, the idea that the title Chalice is connected to her blood is high and is similar to how Desmond’s blood(line) plays an important part in his story.
Adha means ‘sacrifice’ and Desmond ends up sacrificing himself. (While Adha was the sacrifice that needed to happen so Altaïr would become who he is in AC1)
Adha wanted to leave Levant and everything behind. Desmond wanted the same thing and did just that.
There’s a possibility that she was 25 when she died (unconfirmed) which is also the same age Desmond died.
Anyway, let’s talk about how Desmond and Adha swapping places would work.
Okay, so let’s go over what we’re sure will happen:
Desmond and Adha would switch places at very awkward times because that would be fun and we all love to make Desmond suffer (affectionately).
Desmond would end up saving Kadar and warn everyone about Al Mualim (and be believed, I guess?)
Adha would end up saving Lucy and the world
Optional: Clay will be saved as well
So, for this one, we’ll have to twist the timeline a bit. We never did get an idea of when (if he ever did) Desmond relived Altaïr’s memories of Altaïr’s Chronicles (although I do like to headcanon he dreamed of it while he was stuck in the trunk of the car as Lucy drives them to the Rome hideout) so we’ll throw that away and make Desmond only have vague memories of Adha because we are setting this in the timeline where Lucy is still alive so that means Desmond hasn’t reached a Synch Nexus with Altaïr yet.
I propose that they switch not after a night of passion but during it, like in the exact middle of it. The kind reason for this is that no one would mistake that some kind of nefarious switcheroo has happened or another. The mean (totally the main reason why I'm suggesting this) reason is… maximum embarrassment and panic for Desmond which I am all for. XD
Okay, so let’s focus on Desmond first:
The best time for Altaïr and Adha to have some quality time would be just after they reunited and left the sewers and before Altaïr went to Tyr to ‘confront’ Harash. For this, we’ll assume Altaïr didn’t leave immediately and, instead, decided to stay with Adha for one night. During that time, Desmond changes places with her and… there’s a long period of just the two of them staring at each other with growing surprise and whatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuck
Then Altaïr grabs him by the throat and demands to know who he is and where’s Adha.
And just as Desmond is starting to get lighthearted from the lack of oxygen.
He manages to blurt out.
“I’m Adha!”
And that… is how Desmond Miles, the Isu’s favorite chew toy and the unluckiest chosen one in the world, screwed up so badly that he now has to pretend to be the tragic destined-to-die lover of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad.
Of course, Altaïr didn’t believe him at first but then Desmond started answering his questions, questions only Altaïr and Adha would have known the answers to and Desmond is pretty sure it wasn’t his Bleed of Altaïr that was giving him the answers.
Not when one of the questions made him say “Oh, that? Yeah. I lied to you back then. What? You were cute as a kid and you believed everything I say so I wanted to see if you’d be able to tell if I was lying! You never did, right?”
There was no way Desmond could have answered that unless Altaïr knew it was a lie. Altaïr had truly believed it which means…
For some reason…
He has Adha’s memories inside him.
Unorganized Notes:
Desmond got Altaïr to call him ‘Desmond’ because “it’ll be weird if you call a guy ‘Adha’, right? Also, the Brotherhood knows Adha and I don’t look anything like her.”
Desmond joins Altaïr in finishing up the remaining plot points of Altaïr Chronicles because something inside him knows something bad is going to happen if he doesn’t stay with Altaïr. Also, Altaïr wasn’t going to let him out of his sight because there were still a bit of lingering doubts about Desmond’s true identity which Desmond is like “yeah, that sounds about right”.
Altaïr Chronicles’ parts end successfully but Desmond gets a headache the day Adha was meant to die. He loses consciousness and Altaïr has to carry him off to somewhere safe until he wakes up.
When he wakes up, he knows where to go…
And now we get to Adha’s side of the story, in which she gets transported while Desmond was in the middle of a little stress-relieving session with Rebecca, Shaun and Lucy. All three of them immediately freaked out while Adha is momentarily confused before giving the same excuse Desmond gave to Altaïr.
“I’m Desmond Miles.”
Everyone is super sus at that but, really, they’re dealing with Isu BS and Desmond’s Bleeding Effect had been weirder than what was recorded (Lucy’s insistent “It can’t do this!!!” falls into deaf ears) and they figured the best way to check if Adha is Desmond is to put her in the Animus to check her genetic memories.
Lo and behold…
She has the same genetic DNA as Desmond Miles.
Not only that, the Animus ‘sees’ her as Subject 17 and the next memory to be played was the same memory of Ezio where they stopped for the day.
So, yeah…
According to the Animus…
Adha was Desmond Miles.
What the fuck.
Unorganized Notes:
Unlike Altaïr and Adha who did have an intimate romantic (most probably, fuck it, I’m headcanoning here, childhood friends to arranged marriage) relationship, Desmond’s relationship with Lucy, Shaun and Rebecca is primarily sexual although the feelings were starting to creep in.
If this was a fic, the narration would be more… vague. Less of Adha being an unreliable narrator and more of like the narration isn’t set in Adha’s eyes like with Desmond’s but in the eyes of the people around her although she’s the main focus.
She actually has a higher sync rate than any of Desmond’s past synchronization which is surprising.
Instead of going to the colosseum, Ezio’s memories stopped just as he had taken the Apple back from the Borgias, instead giving them the memory of Altaïr and everyone freezes when they saw Desmond with him.
They were underground and Shaun noticed that it looks a lot like the vault in the Vatican but… there are pillars, large and tall, piercing the dark ceiling above them.
After that memory plays, Adha slips into a coma and the Animus tells them that taking her off would endanger her so they keep her hooked to the Animus as it starts playing memories of Altaïr and Desmond.
During that time, Adha meets with Clay who calls her an ‘anomaly’ and Adha just smiles as she says “yeah, that sounds about right.”
Their conversation will be hidden from everyone (including the readers) and it will end with Adha waking up from her coma and telling everyone that they need to go somewhere else right now.
She takes them to the colosseum first to get the Apple but she tells Lucy to stay in the van for now. When Lucy tries to join them, the van locks by itself and Lucy freezes when she hears Clay’s voice coming from the laptop connected to the Animus.
When they returned, Lucy is oddly quiet and just asks Adha where to go next.
Adha gives them the location of a place they never heard from Ezio’s memories at all.
The Convergence:
The location in question is the lost city of Iram which has an underground Isu ‘temple’ named Iram of the Pillars.
The pillars there served as one of the many failed experiments of the Isu to protect themselves from the Solar Flare. The pillars were meant to store the data of all the Isus and the idea was they would be used to transfer the Isus forward a little bit after the Solar Flare.
The process of uploading the data itself proved to take too much time and Juno used the premise of this project and created the Mead to transfer the Isu’s consciousness instead of its entirety.
Iram can only be opened by a specific bloodline. To be more specific, the bloodline that Adha belongs to with an Isu ancestry that had been in charge of the Pillar Project (since this is a Capitoline Triad thing, I wanna say Minerva since she has a statue in Masyaf according to the novel but the idea of Juno and Aita having a child that would could be the Isu ancestor of Adha is a bit fun). This Isu ancestry is also in Altaïr’s bloodline thanks to Umar although his blood is more ‘diluted’ than Adha’s.
The Isu ancestry is why Adha is named the Chalice and why she ‘can turn the tide’ of the crusades since this is pretty much a teleporter of some sort.
Desmond is connected to Adha for one specific reason: he’s was Adha in his past life and now, thanks to whatever the fuck happened in 2012 that serves as the premise of all Yew Branches, Adha herself is the reincarnation of Desmond Miles after he died in 2012.
In other words, the Adha we’ve been looking at had been Desmond Miles who used Iram’s Pillar Project to switch their places because she, as Desmond Miles, wanted to save the people he couldn’t save in his previous life. And now, the pillars are ready for its final use.
By using the Pillars that have been upgraded thanks to Desmond in the past (and Altaïr) bringing the necessary POEs that would start the automatic upgrade construction that would need centuries to be completed, the Pillars could be used for one big moment where the entire world will be transported a few seconds into the future just as the Solar Flare hits. This way, the entire world would be gone and when it returns (without anyone knowing of the time and space displacement), the Solar Flare would have already been completed.
Now…
This is the conundrum…
Do we include in the idea that using the Pillars to save the world meant that Adha and Desmond would be stuck in their current time with Desmond with Altaïr and Adha with Shaun, Rebecca, Lucy and (digital ghost for now) Clay?
Or will the Pillars switch them back in their proper time?
What would count as a happy ending in this scenario?
Because Adha has Desmond Miles’ memories so she does love Shaun, Rebecca, and Lucy the same way Desmond Miles had and everything she had done was to save the world and save Lucy and Clay.
And Desmond has spent years with Altaïr at this point, growing close to him and Altaïr definitely realized that Desmond is more than just Adha.
So… really…
Would returning them to their original timeline truly be a happy ending?

Ok, but I've been having this tought for some time now and I gotta share it:
So Tsu'Tey is just casually having a convo w/someone in the human lab while simultaneously holding like a almost year-old Spider in his other arm who is peacefully playing with his braids and at some point he puts a braid in his mouth, with which Tsu'Tey is not bothered by cos he does so all the time, and yknow the little beads at the end of his braids? Well, when Spider pulls the braid out of his mouth THEY'RE GONE and Tsu somehow manages to notice that and they just stare at each other for a good couple of seconds before Tsu'Tey promptly starts yelling: "SPIT THEM OUT RIGHT NOW, DON'T YOU DARE SWALLOW THEM!" and trying to get the beads out of Spiders mouth. Eventually he manages to retrieve 2 out of 3 beads with Spider managing to swallow 1 and Tsu'Tey demands the scientists do some scans on him and such to make sure he's not gonna like, choke on it in his sleep. In the end the scientists couldn't get it out, Tsu is stressed and Spider is just happy to be there (but dw he prolly like poops it out later or smt 😅)
Tsu'tey is stressed but Spider was clearly hungry, what was the poor little love supposed to do? Starve? You can bet Tsu'tey isn't letting that kid anywhere near his braids again :D Absolutely LOVE this idea!!!
ALSO, the fact human babies learn but putting LOADS of random things in their mouths, which means Tsu'tey has to learn how to redirect him otherwise Spider will in fact ingest something he's not supposed to. Bonus points if Na'vi babies have some built in sense to know what is poisonous and what is not (they're aliens, it's not impossible). Whereas Tsu'tey is just infinitely stressed going "PUT THAT DOWN!" "SPIDER, NO!" "HAVE SOME YOVO FRUIT INSTEAD!" And the scientists all just watch in silence and awe as this eight foot something alien BOLTS across the compound to tackle an oblivious baby, who is lifting some kind of insect he found under someone's bunk bed up to his mouth. They don't call him Spider for nothing afterall.

I absolutely adore Ghibli movies, so I decided to combine my two favourite things- BSD & Ghibli
The sign says Bungou Stray Dogs in Japanese. Hopefully, I got the Kanji right. I also decided to make Totoro have the same glow and colour as Atsushi's Tiger :)

What happened to Ultimate Gwen Stacy? Was she just locked in a vaugely canon series of Schrodinger's Boxes in terms of whether she was alive or not, or did something significantly wackier happen?
...this is Ultimate Marvel, so I'm betting it's the latter.
Introduced, given significant amounts of personality and airtime as part of the supporting cast outside of just being "Hero's Girlfriend" (she and Peter never actually date.) Her bridge beat with Green Goblin is instead given to Mary Jane in a fakeout, and both girls continue on their merry way. But then she's later unceremoniously and unexpectedly murdered by the ultimate iteration of Carnage, in a way that's deliberately abrupt and horrifying but also very tightly tied to a handful of specific decisions Peter made without realizing their significance, in a way that makes him even more neurotic than he already was. The fallout of her death is much better paced and distributed over the following issues, whereas the original comic kind of has an "Oh well, that was fucked, onto a crossover with Luke Cage" kind of energy. And then fifty issues later it turns out that the aforementioned Carnage attack didn't actually kill her all the way and she's been in a blacksite lockup because she walked away from it with symbiote powers of some stripe. That arc ends with Peter thinking she's dead but they've actually got her in lockup again. That's as far as I've gotten

Poker night with the farmer and the adventurers
Who would be good at poker?
I think Lance and Camilla would be the best since they would both keep a vague smiling face and it would be impossible to guess what they are thinking.
The farmer is also be surprisingly good at it since they will have a wide variety of expression that don't necessarily match with whatever cards they have.
Marlon and Gill are old adventurers who are very familiar with game nights among their peers and know their fair share of tricks (and cheats).
Isaac would suck at it since he's too easy to annoy.
Alesia and Jolyne are good at the game but prefer to watch others play.
Magnus is a joy killer who finds these types of game a waste of time.
Jadu probably prefers more complex and engaging table top games but gets outvoted every time and has to play card games with the rest of the players.

i was talking about this a bit with ramone, but y'all know how i mentioned that it's likely that blamore has one of those 'special containment' cells that villains like killer croc and man-bat in arkham have as well? wellll... i can guarantee y'all that on one of the rare occasions that that they have let it into a common room (because it's basically treated as if it's in unofficial solitary confinement in arkham a majority of the time unfortunately), blamore was SO desperate to get out of there because they put a power dampener on him and because arkham is just terrible in general, that he pulled out one of the plants growing in his ribs (which is considerably painful for it to do, by the way) to give to ivy.
and she of course proceeded to break them all out of there because she can turn even just a little plant into something capable of tearing the asylum apart so... yeah JSJSJ whenever blamore is desperate, it gets inventive, and that may be even more dangerous than when it has it's powers because at least you kind of know what to expect with them — but whenever it's robbed of them... it can become particularly nasty, let's just say that ☠️

no bc they rlly got me with that “do you remember what he did to you? I was there” bc up to this point no one has been genuine about the abuse. They’ve used it in power plays, in weird psychosexual soliloquies, everytime someone else’s experience of abuse has been brought up it’s been transactional. Say sorry because you neglected Connor, feel an emotion because you hit Roman. But stewy… man! It was just this one last Hail Mary to get Kendal OUT. And the only way kendal knew how to respond to probably the only non-transactional ‘normal people’ exposition of abuse was trying to get his own transaction to go through while offering nothing in return because stewy showed his hand and Kendall knew he wanted Nothing but Him.

People who age up Jeanne just to be the same age as Ren are cowards
#text#I also don't agree with the headcanon interpretation of Ren treating her like a “kid” either in the BP era because of their age difference#If anything I like to believe they treated eachother as equals and have mutual respect for one another#I personally find it boring to keep restricting your enjoyment on the ship all because of their 4 year age gap. When they literally have#no power imbalance in their dynamic neither theyre unhealthy. Theyre both mature for their ages if anything#Like yeah its ok to be uncomfortable and grossed out because theyre a adult x teen ship I get it. But still again they have a pretty#mature and healthy relationship by the end of the day as it even shows in their adult years. Idk why ppl have such a hard time#grasping the concept that Ren and Jeanne had a mature healthy relationship during the BP era and still wishes#for jeanne to be aged up or make her the same age as Ren because 4 year age gap is too much apparently#also lets not forget theyve been through hell in their childhoods and had to grow up fast in the toxic environment they were in#. but nah ppl think a 4 year age gap is much worse and it'll make both parties even more traumatized ever then before#than the hell they were put through as kids. Lord#I think their tragic backstories were MUCH worse honestly to the point it gives them life long trauma and endless nightmares#But them dating I literally dont give a fuck as they literally healed each other when they got together romantically#Also note: I still believe people can do whatever they want by the end of the day. Sometimes not all aus are made for everyone and thats ok#Do whatever that makes you feel the most comfortable and see fit-- I just find it a tad bit sad when ppl restrict themselves strictly#when it comes to fictional age gap ships in general when they could break loose and go all out having fun without thinking about#irl morals because this is fiction but thats just me
