#desmond go flirt with him

[auroramoon-draws16]

My friend convinced me to get into Star Wars

Send help

(Warning: SPOILERS and I’m not THAT into it, so correct where you see fit)

Assassin’s Creed x Star Wars

But the Brotherhood is an ancient af group, as old or older than the og Jedi order, they’re so secretive and mysterious that not even the modern order are sure they exist. Kind of like a spooky myth?

The Force be like: “Brotherhood? What Brotherhood? I didn’t help make any Brotherhood!” We love a bad gaslighting bitch 💜

I think they’d be force users who pretty much do as their original universe do: “We work in the Dark to serve the Light.” All the tenants included.

Their sabers are small af and more blade-like, sort of like the darkblade, but crystal clear and emits very little light, they barely make any noise too. (Phantom Sabers? Maybe? That sounds cool, right?) The Assassins got the white hoods and shit too. Omfg they can finally do the Leap of Faith wherever they want! Fuck gravity! We have the fucking force!

As for Eagle Vision, I think you could pass it off as a force ability. Being able to sense feelings and danger is a thing already, so being able to do a large sweep and tag friend/foe would be a step above that. Also treasures. Like the grabby lil dragons our Assassin babies are. They need to be able to fund shenanigans on the fly, and not all of them have time to grab some from their reserves!

As for their role in the main Star Wars story, we got options:

Shoving Desmond into this shit because I can~

Desmond and his Team™️ investigate the Clone Wars shit, because the Brotherhood has always been against oppression and have been systematically wiping out slavery from several parts of the galaxy for a while now, so they would automatically get suspicious. (Clones? Meant for fighting?? For an entire republic??? With no rights of their own???? Idk man, that sounds sus. Oh and the Jedi don’t have a choice because there’s a whole ass war and it would be against their code not to do anything about it? And there’s an order to kill literally all of them at a moment’s notice? Alright, guess we’ll fix this ourselves!)

Des and the crew find the chips and save the Jedi from mass genocide. Maybe killing Palpatine, because fuck that guy.

Would they need to reveal the Brotherhood’s existence to have that happen? Probably not, but it could happen. Boy, wouldn’t that be interesting?

Also, clone shenanigans, because I love them sm

Especially Bad Batch and Domino Squad

And Rex and Cody

My poor babies

But: if the Brotherhood was weakened like in their og universe and they couldn’t investigate (lets say they were compromised by the Sith for a while before the clone wars)

+ Des was born a bit later

Time to aid the rebellion and face destiny!

(If you REALLY want to throw Des into bullshit, like I know you do: Time travel fix it fic with Luke, Leia, Han, and Desmond!)

(You may also include Mandalorian fun, because I also love the Mandos, my other babies <3 Mandalorian culture goes hard and the fics that include them have kidnapped surprise adopted me)

Y’all have fun, I’m tired ^_^💜

[beannoss]

So, as I'm writing more than I anticipated when I first dipped a toe into SxF fandom (!) I thought I'd collect the meta & fic links in one place! 💕 (not spoiler-free :)

META

Endo describes Twilight as 'matter of fact' rather than 'kind': there's a profound philosophy embedded in that sentiment.

… that matter-of-factness manifests in ways that are, almost unerringly, kind. Twilight values consent, he values empowerment for those around him (with some limits, if they impinge on his mission), he privately espouses and practices other values that align with progressive ideologies, like feminism and the rights of the child. Obviously he's 100% antifa and anti-war. One could argue (and perhaps this is what Endo means) that Twilight makes those decisions because they often result in the path of least resistance, making his job easier. And okay, maybe. Except...

Anya isn’t needed for Strix. Twilight decides to adopt her anyway.

Twilight decides it — “I’m going to rework the mission so it doesn’t involve a child because that’s too dangerous” and he’s 100% right! Donovan Desmond is canonically a far right warmonger with fascistic authoritarian aims... Also it turns out Anya’s a person which is frankly unacceptable — Twilight had needed and anticipated an automaton, ideally of himself in miniature form... So having entertained this change, why go back when his reasoning is indisputable?

Let's get deep into analysing the meaning behind the choice of the word Forger for our family's last name

[Create (a relationship or new conditions)] can be taken as a whole within the Forger household, after all Twilight did create the Forgers. But more importantly to me, this meaning applies particularly by way of what Anya and Yor are doing within the family, their choices and aims, and how they’re influencing and shaping the Forgers. And then, of course, Twilight’s choices in return, both under the explicit guise of for the mission and those times when the mission is curiously (ahem) absent from or delayed in his thought process.

What moment(s) cinched it for Twilight to start developing feelings for Yor?

It's entirely in keeping with Yor's character, and it's an entirely revealing moment of who she is. And I think this is the moment for Twilight. He's already been trusting her bit by bit, as he says above, intuitively. I'd suggest that maybe even more than that though, Yor taps into something Twilight deeply wants: backup. Someone and somewhere safe. Maybe we could describe a person fulfilling that role in an adult relationship as a partner...?

What about a Twilight x Yor romance, pre-reveal, in canon? (Ask response)

... because I think it would undermine character arcs and dominant themes. Twilight’s arc involves finding and forging a new pack, a new family. Somewhere safe and loving... A big part of this safety and love for Twilight is about being accepted, warts and all... Yor’s arc is also around finding love and security, but centred less around acceptance (although that obviously also explicitly features!) and more around self-worth and understanding her value.

FIC

Let's start living dangerously (T, Complete)

The real reason Twilight was in the park drilling Bond unnecessarily and covertly training Franky very necessarily, was that Twilight was enacting what he'd called The Avoidance Protocol. And was consequently avoiding his wife. In which Twilight kisses Yor and absolutely does not panic about it.

Twilight x Yor. Post-reveal, humour, fluff, mutual pining, romance, and lots of thinking and lots of feelings. Also flirts with 'idiots in love', I'll have to add that tag...!

It's only me, what have you got to lose? (M, WIP, current primary focus)

Loid asked, “Are you willing to follow my lead?” Why — why did that question make her so angry? It was a practical question in the circumstances. It wasn’t one Yor was typically asked but it wasn’t so far outside the norm. And, a part of her which felt very small added, she had happily followed Loid's lead on many things over the months, without question, trusting his kind eyes, his calming practicality, his seeming abiding normality — But. What did any of that mean any longer? In which the Forger house of cards collapses, and with everything that matters in the balance, the value of normal becomes an open negotiation.

Began with me wanting to explore Yor finding out about Twilight, and has, um, expanded. Yor x Twilight. Identity reveals, angst and fluff, hurt/comfort (emotional and physical), touch starvation, lots of feelings, intimacy, some humour (ah, eventually), and the building of something real.

heartlines (T, one-shot complete)

Hello? Appeared on the soft part of the back of his hand, between his thumb and forefinger. He shouldn't have seen it except that something scorching had torn, had burnt, his glove away and he only just noticed that, the way the fabric had curled and crisped and as he stared, as his heart rate went higher and higher — What did that? Could I have lost my hand?! — more words appeared. I could really — this was crossed out— if — crossed out, but then again — if you're — this was then crossed out as well, but the scribbles didn't disappear, just words on his hand with frantic, messy lines through them until one remained unsullied — can we talk?

Soulmark: Anything you write or draw on your own skin appears in the same place on your soulmate.

Twilight x Yor. Based on a prompt from this list of soulmate prompts, canon divergence if there existed soulmarks in the SxF world. Pre-relationship, sort of epistolary until it very suddenly isn't 😊

our melodies overlapped (T, WIP, currently backburnered)

Twilight prided himself on accepting situational changes swiftly and with equanimity. Said swiftness was presently three minutes overdue, and equanimity hadn’t reported for duty. Four times it was for the mission + one time it was for The Mission + one time it was for —

Twilight character study basically! Family-orientated, some Twilight x Yor. Backburnered in part because it's actually led me to disagreeing with myself 😂 and I'll probably need to rework it.

Twilight journaling short fic (T, complete)

After Strix, when the Forgers are well established, no secrets between them, Twilight starts journaling. Obviously this is a security risk, so he creates an elaborate cipher. He tests it on Franky. He tests it on the cipher-breakers at WISE. He even feeds some to the SSS. None break it. Satisfied, he starts to journal. Twilight's journaling time is something he starts to jealously protect; given how much it means to him and helps him process things, Yor starts to protect it jealously, too.

How would the assassins react to meeting John Wick?

I was thinking if this should be a Modern Day AU or if it’s John Wick timetraveling kind of thing. Modern Day AU would probably be easier because if John Wick timetravel, he’d probably adopt a dog and live a simple life somewhere he knew would be peaceful (plus, the man deserves it)

So for this one, they meet John Wick during different times in his life.

Altaïr would consider him to be dangerous and would go down the rabbit hole trying to find him to check if he could be part of the Order. This ends up with him finding out about the Continental Hotel and that’s a whole other thing that he now has to deal with.

Ezio wants to recruit him because he saw his skills and thought “I can help him get better”. Every time their paths crossed, Ezio’s full on recruiter mode. Everybody else jokes that he has a guy crush. Ezio would agree. “I have fallen in love with him the moment he put a bullet between the eyes of my own target.”

Ratonhnhaké:ton has some kind of silent agreement with him if they cross path. You go your way and I go my way. He does consider him to be a good hit man (the Brotherhood does not like to call them ‘assassins’) but he also knows how annoying it would be to be focused on because of mistrust (Altaïr) or because they wanted your skills (Ezio).

Desmond actually met him when he was a bartender during one of John’s mission. He knew something was different about him and thought he might be an Assassin… but no. He wasn’t. Desmond honestly let out a sigh of relief when John said he was a contract killer, much to John’s amusement.

Edward crossed paths with him before John Wick became a contract killer. He was actually the first one to try and recruit him but John Wick turned him down. Ezio goes to him whenever he’s turned down and Edward just laughs. He and John did go drinking once and John told him he did wonder how his life would have been if he had agreed to Edward’s offer.

Arno is always polite around him and sometimes ask if they could team up. John always reject his offer though. Whenever he does, Arno would send his location to Ezio who would know immediately it’s John Wick related… because Arno can be quite petty XD

Jacob absolutely tried to recruit him and his way is more joking and a bit flirty. He would tell Evie that he was not flirting with the man. Evie would just raise an eyebrow at him then turn to John to apologize for her twin’s actions.

Bayek tried to recruit him once but stopped when he said no. The last time they met, he learned that John had given up his life as a contract killer to be with the woman he loves and Bayek wished for him the best. (we all know how that ended)

Basim and John first met when they were both just starting their careers in their respective ‘industries’. The next time they met, John noticed that something was different about Basim. Basim just laughs it off and tells him that he hadn’t changed. He just became who he truly was before.

More desmond headcanons bc my blorb is scurrying around my head and won't leave.

Desmond develops chronic migraines from the animus like the really bad kind. The ones where you pass out and wake up in Pain™️

Desmond is weirdly good at singing, but he never tells anyone, and most of the time, when he sings around others, he does it ironically, so one day he is just humming a song and everyone is like "WTF YOU CAN SING?"

Des starts picking up odd habits from his ancestors, such as refusing to step into a room with his left foot (edward) or running his tongue along his scar.

He 100% blames himself for not getting clay out of the animus

Is creepily flexible, like to a concerning degree.

He strikes me as a language nerd he def has duolingo, and even before the animus, he knew like 15 different languages

He climbs walls (yes, I was a wall climber as a kid, yes I am projecting rn)

ADHD DESMOND

He once got a 70 year old bottle of whiskey from a "friend" from the bar, and he absolutely shows it off every chance he gets.

He has connections to gangs and has gone on bike rides with them.

He can't do basic math to save his life if someone puts a multiplication problem in front of him, he short circuits.

He starts getting really bad nose bleeds from the animus, scares the crap out of everyone.

Definitely knows how to flirt like FLIRT can turn the straightest of men gay for a night if need be. It just gets worse after going through ezios' memories.

Has a list of really weird talents but can't do basic tasks like, yeah, you can dislocate your shoulder and pop it back into place, but can you cook eggs without burning them🤨

Terrible at cooking (95% sure his food is banned under the Geneva Conventions)

Can't walk in a straight line he is the friend who bumps into 1000 times a minute while walking down the side walk.

He is weirdly silent, like even before the animus thing, he is always weirdly quiet like silent footsteps can't hear his breathing etc. He dosent mean to it just happens

The only training that really stuck from the farm was the stealth training it was also his favorite subject to work on he probably hated hand to hand combat.

He has never filed taxes a day in his life, but the IRS could never track him down. He honestly doesn't even know he supposed to be paying them. The IRS has a meltdown over this.

Ok, I think this was enough to satisfy the itch in my brain. I'm gonna go to bed, know I might post a one-shot about the IRS one tomorrow. Idk

[demigoddessqueens]

i love you, what did you say?

A/N - naturally, this is based off the original CR ask HERE

Bayek

Oh….do you care for him that way? If you do, don’t wander far from him

Altair

If you said something like this, he’ll do the “play it cool” routine but is a whole Mess™️ on the inside

Aya

If these are the times that she’s separated from Bayek, she finds comfort in this from you

Edward

It’s a sweet trait from you and said rugged pirate thinks it’s an endearingly cute dude to you

Jacob

A menace of a man 😆who makes a big spectacle out of it, telling the Rooks “oh they love me 😌”

Yusuf

Oh so you just say such a phrase so casually, even if he feels serious about you?

Evie

Got caught off guard and responds back casually too but she’s wondering if maybe there could be more

Ezio

A relentless flirt who teases you about it, going on saying “there may be a line, amore, but you’re always first for me”

Connor

Such a shy reaction because it comes across as something so genuine to him

Aveline

Knows what you meant by it and she calls you cherie back too, but yeah, she may want something more than friendship

Alexios

404.exe mercenary has stopped working and is left pondering over this for a good while

Arno

ok be nice to him 😅 he’s suffered enough

But if you offhandedly said it, there’s a part of him that deeply, truly wants you both to be together

Desmond

He probably teases you a bit about it but thinks it’s cute someone cares about him some way

Eivor

Deep look into your eyes, asks if you really mean that

Kassandra

She has not felt such a way since Daphanae, or maybe Eivor, in her many lifetimes so you saying such a phrase gives her a sliver of hope

[sulfies]

got any hcs for the boys in modern au?

Hmm 🤔

Desmond: would stay same, if Assassins etc stuff didnt exist, he would be a bartender that escaped an abusive home bc his dad was crazy about the world ending and him being the antichrist or saviour, so he would isolate him etc. Back w his beloved motorbike

Ezio: Chef or funnier idea... Jobless bc of family money. If he is younger he could be a delivery guy lmao. Is one of those "rich? Nah my family just worked hard so we are well off now" kinda mfs that doesnt get he is rich rich. His family would be alive amd very much in his life. Big gift giver, funds Leos entire art career almost. Is horrified by Desmonds motorbike

Altaïr: he could be a Syrian or Arabic litriture prof? Or an author? He probobly did a lot of odd jobs during youth may e got in a lot of trouble, maybe one of it caused indirectly for Malik to loose his arm but Kadar would be alive. He would call his dad like 2-3 times a yr at most. He would try rlly hard to be the most mature out of them and the other two would push his buttons to take out his arrogant n cocky side.

They would all meet at Desmonds bar or a rock climbing place, Ezio would befriend (flirt with) Desmond first then Desmond would befriend Altaïr. I think Altaïr would make the first actual move w Desmond while all 3 are hanging out and Ezio would be like "WTF not fair me too!!"

Claudia would forever make fun of the fact that they share scars

Ngl I dont rlly read Modern Au's so hope these make sense xhsjsj 😭sorry😭 im much more interested in going back in time or canon time etc etc I do sometimes like it when they time travel to modern times tho

[perfectlovevn]

In your mind, is Eris pretty? And other characters too! rate all of their appearances from a scale 1-10 !!

Love ur game so much btw

Appearance I feel like is kind of subjective, but I will try to do my best.

Eris - 7/8. I think they definitely give off an air of mystery due to their eyes and their general demeanor. It’s the kind that makes you turn to look, but when you actually interact with them, it feels… unnerving, though you’re not sure why.

PreMilo -6/7. Milo I think is probably good looking if you were actively looking closely at him, but with his kind of slouching form and his eye bags, it’s obvious that he doesn’t take care of himself, so appearance wise he looks like he needs to work on himself a little more.

Manipulation Milo -8/9. Since he now focuses very heavily on his appearance, he has become incredibly appealing to most people. Even if not by appearance, his demeanor draws people in. He’s the kind of person who you can’t help but gravitate towards, and by then it might be too late for you.

Violence Milo - 7/8. He takes more care of himself, and he’s physically more fit so his body is pretty well maintained. Not as pretty as Manipulation Milo, but there is a level of attractiveness that people will fall for. Unfortunately your attractiveness will probably fall greatly when he punches you in the face or otherwise deck your kneecaps.

Ryan- 6/7. He’s kind of just average. Not ugly (except in personality), but not jawdroppingly pretty either. He actually probably looks better than PreMilo in most cases, but his posture makes him look a bit worse than he should. I think if he took the time to dress up better, he would actually look quite handsome. Until his opened his mouth, that is.

Seph - 8/9. Strikingly pretty. It’s one of those things that he’s born with, but unfortunately he hides behind that book of his a lot, so you never really get to see his face. He also only cares about some monster in the woods, so trying to flirt with him is utterly useless. It’s a waste, you might think, but hey. He knows what he wants. He wants to be killed by a monster, go king. I guess.

Valli - 7. An acquired taste, that’s for sure. She loves fashion and does take the time to dress herself up, sometimes a little too much. She always puts on the facade of using a valley girl accent (get it, cuz Valli) and acting dumb, but she is actually very smart. She knows how to guide the conversation and she will steal your credit card number and your SSN and probably all your pet photos. Maybe it’s best to get off the internet and delete your browsing history (not that it will save you, you poor soul).

Desmond -5/7. He’s very average looking and rather short. I think he is attractive to some people, but he usually doesn’t overdo it on his looks, even if he does take very good care of himself. His attractiveness is either added or detracted from his personality because while he has a good heart and is hard working, he’s also stubborn on his beliefs and gets angry very easily. But hey, he did end up with a 6ft + tall girlfriend who likes to fight and tease him so he’s probably doing something right.

Poison -6/8. Very heavily depends on how much you like a tall person with scars and muscles, so it can range from ugly to very nice. Doesn’t take care of any battle scars as she views them as rewards for good fights, but does take good care of their body. Hopefully you look like a weakling otherwise she might decide you’re a good opponent whether you want to fight them or not.

Perfect Milo - ???. How much do you like Milo? A lot right? He’ll look like anything you want right? Since he’s your perfect love, right? You can’t leave him, you can’t leave him.

In other news I think I got all of the stories written down for extra stories. There should be about four new characters in those, so unless I come up with another brilliant idea, I guess that should be it for now. If you send another ask relating to that after, I can rate them too.

[dark-elf-writes]

Remembered my ac/bnha au and decided to read back through it/tag it and realized i forgot some very important things about it along the way that are very funny to me:

Desmond repeatedly looking at All Might with Eagle vision active and nearly blinding himself every time because all the vestiges’ glow put together is like looking directly at the sun

Desmond flirting with Aizawa through what is essentially a very dangerous game of tag while Aizawa has no idea they’re flirting at all

Nezu however being fully aware they’re flirting and honestly being so here for it his pup needs someone who can match him

And really it makes me want to work on this one more because the bones are there and I can see them and where everything will go and I’m very excited about it

[themonotonysyndrome]

A couple of days ago, I posted some headcanons about Castin. I sprinkled in some Modern AU and I thought: "Why stop there? Why not go crazy? Go stupid?" So after rambling on and on with @moonandstarlightsposts last night (love you, baby~), here's my take on Desmond Asmr's characters in a..

High School AU!

-

Characters (background + types of club/school activities they would join)

Baroness:

A wealthy heiress who was homeschooled her entire life until her legal guardian enrolled her in school so she could gain some life experiences. The aloof, popular girl type was quickly befriended by the Queen Ascendant while she and Reyes were childhood friends because their families were in the same social circle. She's the secret alcohol supplier for Tigress' parties, and her form of payment is favours. So be careful when you request any help from her~

She met Castin after their teacher arranged for her to be his history tutor. She found him annoying at first, but after his heartfelt confession, they slowly became friends and later, a couple after both had to hide in a nearby bathroom before the hall monitor noticed.

+

She joins the Book Club with Reyes. If you want to find her, she's either reading in the library or chilling at the bleachers during football practice. Occasionally, she raises a thumbs up when Castin hollers at her, her eyes never leaving the pages.

Castin Hammer:

The popular jock who all the girls write his surname in their notebooks and all the guys want to be. He's riding on a scholarship. Thinks that secured his future, so he's more concern with maintaining his popular image alongside Rhett.

Fell in love at first sight with the Baroness when she got out of the principle office but thinks she's playing hard to get when all his flirting attempts get shot down. After receiving a reality check from Rhett, he becomes more honest with her and confesses to her after they scramble into a bathroom to escape the hall monitor. At first, he was highkey afraid that being his girlfriend would mean she would get bullied by his admirers, but after a particularly nasty cheerleader was expelled due to several allegations, Castin thinks his girlfriend is scary and hot, lol.

+

He joins the football team after his puberty glows up and is considered one of the school's star players. He likes showing off to the Baroness during practice and insists that she wears his varsity jacket.

Queen Ascendant:

The girl that can fit in any friend group, but she's no alpha bitch, no, no. The Queen Ascendant is friendly and constantly invited to parties, yet at the end of the day, she only has a few close friends who would stay by her side even after graduation. She's grateful for them. She befriended the Baroness because she looked so awkward during the first week in high school, so she helped her out by showing the ropes and they became close ever since!

The Queen Ascendant actually went to the same middle school with Rhett! Though they were never really friends, they were aware of each other's existence. She thought they were cool, but for some reason, he absolutely hated her guts after prom. This carried over to high school, and everyone knows it. The Baroness once asked if she wanted her to get rid of Rhett, but the Queen Ascendant promised that he was not going to hurt her.

...Aaaannnddd then came abduction. But don't worry! They managed to communicate well and all is good. Now, she has to restrain the Baroness from trying to kill her boyfriend.

+

She joins the swim team. She's not too big on competition, though. She likes it as a hobby, especially when he bends down to leap into the pool, and Rhett has full view of her ass.

Rhett:

The face of the high school. The number Mr. popular. Anything and everything he does will circulate around campus THRICE! Everyone wants to be in his friends' group. At least 2 girls would confess to him in a week to the point that there's a running bet. Strangely, he never accepts any of them nor has a girlfriend.

Rhett is Castin's childhood friend and is a constant support figure when his mother dies. He's also unafraid to dish out tough love when Castin needs it.

How she and Rhett became a couple, well, took the entire school by surprise! Everyone knows that Rhett had a personal beef with her, but no one knows - including the Queen Ascendant! - why and he refuses to explain why. The truth? He asked her out to prom during middle school via love letter and slipped it in her locker. Unfortunately, it flew away when Rhett's back was turned. So he was heartbroken when she went with someone else and, thus, has been nursing a grudge ever since.

The two were forced to work together on a school project, which resurfaced his feelings for her, who is still trying to figure out why he hates her so much because he's super hot and cold with her. The boiling point is when he abducted her from her home during the weekend and took her to his family's cabin. They finally talked it out and returned to school as a couple after being missing for 2 whole weeks. Needless to say, their friends were very concerned.

+

He is the captain of the football club and a damn good leader. He cares for his boys and is close with the coach. Under his captainship, their school won several inter-state competition trophies. Don't admit to his face that he preens like a peacock when the Queen Ascendant watches him in the field. He will punch you.

Cupcake:

The quiet, studious girl who only sticks close to her group. The wallflower that everyone missed. Cupcake tends to get bullied by those who are looking to take advantage of her, forcing her to do their homework and such. Her only goal is to graduate high school with flying colours, keep her head under the radar and help out her family.

She became entangled with Warren when she accidentally caught him sneaking out of school when the teachers were looking for him. To buy her silence, Warren offers to befriend her and keep the bullies away. Everyone in school was surprised and jealous at how closely he stuck to her after that. They gradually fell in love with each other after lots of hardships. He even asked her out to prom!

+

She joins the Science Club and sometimes tutor the juniors for extra bucks. She doesn't feel comfortable sitting with the Baroness and the Queen Ascendant at the bleachers during Warren's practice at first, but she eventually warms up to them.

Warren:

One of the stars of the football team, where he, Rhett and Castin form a trio and so share the same amount of popularity. He always has a new girl hanging off his arm every month. He is the life of the party and sometimes even the host. He and Castin play fight a lot, and rarely butt heads with Rhett. Academically, well, you rarely see him in class because he would rather be somewhere else.

When he met Cupcake, he didn't even know she existed, but the more he hung around her, the more he realised that she was actually pretty funny and chill. Expect him to bring her to parties, introduce her to his friends and be all protective whenever his exes dare mess with her. He's secretly a softie around her and lowkey enjoys looking out for her.

Warren is all about being street-smart and quick on his feet to get out of trouble. His goal is to ensure that Cupcake enjoys high school to the fullest.

+

He joined the football team as soon as tryouts were open. His varsity jacket is more often found in Cupcake's closet than his.

VP:

Girlboss. Gatekeep. Gaslight. That's VP. She kicks ass and takes names on the regular while running to be valedictorian. Everyone looks up to her, and she owns it. Her style is always on point, and she appears untouchable. In reality? Her home life sucks, so she's desperate to have her public image appear clean.

VP has a fierce rivalry with Wajid because their visions of their club keep clashing. Somehow, Wajid found out about her background and used it against her: either work with him to produce the best show ever so that their after-school curriculum looks great, or he'll deliver the info to the newspaper club. Not wanting to be bested, she seduced him into sleeping with her, took a selfie afterward, and threatened to share the pic with his girlfriend at the time if he tried anything shady.

After that incident, you can hear them fighting non-stop, and sometimes, you might even catch them stumbling out of the janitor closets or other inconspicuous places. Rumours never stop circling around them.

+

She is the co-leader of the theatre & costume club. Her job is gathering funds for props and textiles and her biggest investor is the Baroness. Sometimes, she would also act on stage with Wajid.

Wajid:

The cool, serious and somewhat mysterious guy that you can't help but turn your head twice when he walks by. He's a bit intimidating to approach at first but once you get to know him, you'll realise that he's actually... pretty alright. He just ain't got time for drama (which is hilarious because he's all up on VP's business).

The teachers love him because he always submits assignments on time and respects the rules. The girl who one day declares herself his girlfriend likes how obedient he is. To sum it up, Wajid has no complain about his life.

...Until VP rudely tries to usurp his position in the club that he's painstakingly built with sweat, blood and tears. The girl that haunts him like a beautiful spectre. She's a shooting star that tilts his world on its axis. But unknown to her, he enjoys arguing with VP. Enjoys this forbidden feeling growing between them, and for once in his life, he wants to do something for himself.

+

He is the director of the teacher and costume club. He coordinates every play, interviews actors and actresses, and ensures everything runs smoothly. When he's on stage with VP, he struggles to ignore his growing feelings for her.

Tigress:

The delinquent, rebellious student who transfers from so many schools because she keeps getting expelled. Her father was wrongly framed and is jailed for life, leaving her in the care of a dirty cop for an uncle. She having a rough time growing up is an understatement.

Tigress is a pretty scrappy fighter. She has connections to all sorts of things and knows lots of people, which has earned her a bit of a reputation. For what it's worth, she's proud of the person she has become.

She and Renae were good friends before his mum accused her dad of embezzling money from their joint company, and that's when bitterness and hatred toward Renae's family set in. She's looking forward to her pound of flesh now that she and Renae are studying at the same school. Despite that, she still has some fondness for her dorky friend, and it really confuses her.

+

She tries to join several clubs but none of them interest her in the long run.

Renae:

Another rich kid but unlike the Baroness, Renae has an overprotective mum who controls every aspect of him, even his school life. Also, unlike the rest of the bois, he's more of a pretty boy. Adorable, smartly dressed and is the hall monitor. Yup. This makes him unpopular with a lot of people, but no one dares to mess with him because rumours have it he comes from a royal lineage. Renae is also haughty and a bit of a Tsundere, so his friends are those who share his background.

He and Tigress were childhood friends, and despite being too young to recognise it, he was heartbroken when she mysteriously disappeared one day. So excuse him when it took him several weeks to realise that the new transfer student was his friend!

Tigress being a delinquent does not stop him from trying to befriend her. In fact, he's determined to be her 'prince charming/knight in shining armor' and rescue her from other delinquents in the school, much to the annoyance and amusement of Tigress.

A delinquent and a hall monitor—will love bloom between them? The newspaper club is keeping a close eye on them!

+

He doesn't join any clubs or after-school activities because his mother prefers to have him at home.

Gorgeous:

The QUEEN BEE of the school. The female alpha. The one girl that the Baroness, Queen Ascendant, Cupcake, VP and Tigress dare not to cross. The one who ensures the school doesn't become a flaming dumpster. Gorgeous is genuinely friendly, always there to lend you an ear and is a multi-tasking master. Her grades are always top-notch, she's athletic and someone that the faculty and student body could rely on.

However, getting to where she is currently requires a lot of sacrifice. See, she and Desmond came from the same middle school that ended up burnt down due to an accident. She belonged to a gang that wanted to change the school for the better, and so did Desmond, but unfortunately, both had very different ideas on how to achieve it. There was a fight that resulted the school getting destroyed. Investigations were launched, but no ties could be found.

When she and Desmond enrolled at the same high school purely out of luck, the two swore to work together instead of against one another, and they fell in love!

+

She is the vice president of the student council. She manages all the clubs, checks through student attendants and humbles Desmond occasionally.

Desmond:

This is the guy that your mama warns you about. A bad boy who has fooled the entire school faculty into thinking he's an angel. Those who knew him back in the past like Gorgeous? Well, they'd immediately transfer the moment they saw him.

Controlling a school is just a trial run for him to see if he has what it takes to create his own empire once he graduates. He had plans even in middle school, but Gorgeous became a force he never expected, including falling in love with.

The moment he laid eyes on Gorgeous, he knew that she would be his downfall. His suspicion became true when she held up a lighter with a vicious smirk on her beautiful face. After their middle school was destroyed, he vowed that if their paths were to cross again, he's gonna do everything in his power to make her his partner-in-crime and future wife. Girlfriend would have to do for now.

And wouldn't you know it, both of them had a fresh start when they noticed each other during orientation.

+

Present of the student council. Nothing goes within the school without his say-so. He can easily withdraw the football team from participating in competitions, shut down any clubs he wants and even fire teachers who he has a problem with. It helps that he still has contact with his old gang.

💗 GROWING HEART - if they have a crush, is it noticable? what changes when they’re in love?

If you haven't read my answers to other asks you definitely should there are a few that touch on this topic really well, they're all listed under the extras tag. Ok, let's dive in!

Roxanne/Robbie: Ro is pretty forward all of the time, if they like you then that's that. You'll know and so will everyone else whether it's just a crush or love they aren't afraid to express themselves. Also I hope you're ok with PDA because they sure are. 😘

Joleen/Johnny: Jo will try to stay neutral until they're sure about how MC feels. Once they are they'll be as sweet as can be. When Jo is just crushing on MC they'll try to move slow and really get to know you but when they're in love and sure of your relationship it definitely isn't a secret.

Delphine/Desmond: De is so focused on working on The Rebel Rejects that at first they don't even realize their feelings for MC. Once they do realize their feelings they will definitely make it known to MC. And once De is in love they'll make it obvious for everyone to see.

Rina/Ren: R isn't quick to realize their crush on MC. They've never really thought that they would have time for anything romantic before hitting their goals. R won't show how they feel while in the crushing stage, they'll try to resist until their feelings are to strong to hide. Once they've completely fallen for MC they'll be less closed off around others and really sweet when in private.

Everly/Everett: Eve may be a bit slow to realize they have a crush on MC but once they do they will definitely make it know, trying to scare away the competition. And once they're in love they're gonna make sure to show it grand gestures, dramatics, and all.

Karla: Karla is usually carefree and laidback when it comes to romance, but that's changed after their recent breakup. She wants to build a strong friendship first before revealing her crush. Once she feels like you have a strong foundation she'll become more flirtatious. When she's in love she'll definitely let it show.

Faye: Faye is naturally very affectionate even to people that they just see as friends. This can make it hard to tell if they are in the crushing stage, since it may feel like they aren't giving MC special treatment. Once they are in love with you they will go above and beyond trying to make you feel completely loved in the best way they know how.

Sebastien: Seb is extremely sure of what he wants, so if that's MC then he's going to let them know head on. Whether its the crushing phase or full on love he will openly pursue MC if it seems like the feeling is mutual.

Maxine: Max will slowly start dropping "friendly flirts" while in the crushing stage to test the waters and see how MC feels. Max will need MC to show some obvious interest before they become more bold. Once they're in love and the feeling is mutual they will boldly claim MC as their own.

Silas: Oh, Silas, what a little pickle he's in. MC is off limits for him just like the rest of his advisees. No extra long conversations or sneaking glances allowed. He needs to treat them like everyone else to stop his feelings from developing further. If MC can get him to fall for them during their freshman year that in itself will be a miracle, and then kept a secret till their freshman year is over.

Some random Ezio/Desmond thoughts that don't make sense but whatever

I'm cringe but I'm free!! I'm writing this instead of studying for my finals,,,

Don't look too much into this.

(Expedient) A malfunction in the Animus causes Desmond to disconnect from Ezio inside the simulation; he suddenly can't see the world through Ezio's eyes, yet the Animus didn't expel him from Ezio's memories. He's simply seeing them from his point of view. Neither Rebecca nor Shaun knows how to reattach Ezio's memories to Desmond's dna. It's like he's actually traveling into the past;

Once everyone processed what just happened and the initial shock passed, Desmond understood he just couldn't stop doing what he had to. If he couldn't live Ezio's memories, then he'd have to follow him as he's experiencing them. The risks were high but while Rebecca would find a solution, that would have to do the trick: Desmond started tailing Ezio during his missions, and his stealth skills turned out to be better than his ancestor's ones for some time, until Ezio eventually realized he was being followed;

It's not like it was hard to identify Desmond: he was a modern man in 1500s Rome...;

Ezio is, of course, shocked as well. Ever since the events that took place in the Vatican, the *now* Assassin Mentor suspected there was something beyond what he knew, but to be face to face with a man from the future was on a whole other level;

They talked briefly, but the crew expelled Desmond from the Animus after that, fearing to have caused massive damage to the timeline; yet, nothing of interest happened, so Desmond insisted they kept going;

Ezio understood quickly that everything was connected to their missions and the Fruits of Eden; yet he couldn't help but being wary towards Desmond (would you blame him?);

Desmond even answered some of Ezio's questions about his time, trying to sound as vague as possible not to alter the man's time more than he had already done. They could even understand each other pretty well, as Desmond spent so much time inside the Animus he could talk enough Italian to hold a conversation, despise Ezio's 1500s dialect (heavily mixed with Latin) which was still hard to translate from time to time;

The other problem was blending Desmond in that society. The moment Ezio accepted the fact that they had a common goal and he had to keep the other man by his side, he educated Desmond with what he had: they started spending much time together, doing every time of activity that could turn Desmond into the perfect little roman man; then they took on some missions together, running and climbing every corner of the city. It was all so different from when he was just reviving Ezio's memories because Desmond was now actually there. The feeling of that pure air against his face, the smells of the city and the adrenaline in his veins as he followed Ezio were intoxicating, in all the right ways;

Ezio even gave him some Assassin robes from the Brotherhood. Desmond ended up "staying" there, or he'd find shelter for the night at la Rosa in Fiore with Claudia;

Despise the gravity of the situation, Desmond would lie if he said he didn't love Ezio's company, so much he'd spend hours inside the Animus just to stay with him. Rebecca often had to force him to disconnect before the machine fried his brain;

At some point, he arrived at the conclusion that he liked Ezio a lot: the type of attraction that made him forget they were vaguely related. It was that older man's charm, among other things;

(Ezio was 40 years old, an old age for his time: he was surprised to hear Desmond talk about his era and the way people could easily arrive 90 without much problems. He was smart enough to know not to ask too many questions about Desmond's world, yet curiosity had the best of him most times);

It helped Desmond develop those feelings the fact that Ezio was totally the romantic type (he had seen that side of him before after all) and he had no problem openly flirting with him. The two of them could talk about anything for hours: in the evening, they'd run and climb around the center of Rome until they'd find a tower or a building high enough to not be noticed by guards. And they'd sit there and chat endlessly until morning. Desmond almost feared that Rebecca would have found a solution to their problem too soon, and he'd have to leave behind all those precious moments;

Ezio was the first one to confess to Desmond: he liked the fact that the latter was younger and a total stranger to that life; he loved to hear Desmond talk exactly because he was the son of another culture, and more than once their differences helped them see various situations from more angles; the way Desmond could perfectly keep up with him during missions, almost as if he knew the areas at heart, was also surprisingly attractive to Ezio;

He knew that when Desmond disappeared, it was because he was years ahead of him, yet he still missed him. He was aware they couldn't work, but he was willing to chase him anyway;

Seeing how his feelings were reciprocal, they started "dating", if whatever their relationship was could be defined as such. It was strange at first, but they figured things out eventually;

(They were e-dating with extra steps);

Their relationship, of course, remained secret. No one in Ezio's circle knew about them, even tho some Brotherhood members learned about Desmond's presence (and how to ignore it);

Whenever Desmond disconnected from the Animus after he and Ezio spent a night together, Rebecca and Shaun would side-eye him for the whole day.

How would the assassins react to meeting Samus Aran?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WIxiQ09ui6o&pp=ygUKU2FtdXMgYXJhbg%3D%3D

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7_YC7IW1zCU&pp=ygURTWV0cm9pZCBnYW1lcGxheSA%3D

Altaïr – It’s a toss up if he’s going to make a comment about Samus’ suit underneath her armor that would lead him to hot waters but he’s much more interested in the armor itself and would probably ask Samus how it works and such. Definitely would ask if he could try wearing the armor out of scientific curiosity.

Ezio – Would absolutely assume Samus is trying to proposition him when she gets out of her armor and he sees her suit. It’ll be embarrassing once he realized it’s not like that but he won’t let it get to him and continue talking to Samus as he liked before he even knew she was a woman underneath that armor. Will only start to flirt once more if Samus does it first.

Ratonhnhaké:ton – Wouldn’t even bat an eye that the one inside the armor was a woman. Would definitely look away because that suit is quite tight. He would wonder why people of this time would want to wear tight clothes and ask if the fabric used gave them more protection than actual padded clothes.

Desmond – Why should he even be surprised? He just got transported into the future where humans are fighting aliens or something. He’s in a scifi setting and he’s gonna roll with it.

Edward – After Mary Read? Yeah, Edward would be surprised but he wouldn’t be, like, confused by it. He’s more interested in Samus’ weapons right now. Like his ancestor, would only flirt with her if she flirts first.

Arno – He would also be more interested in Samus’ weapons. Hell, he won’t be surprised that a woman is underneath that armor considering he’s been in love with a badass woman for years (decades?). The idea of flirting with her would never even cross his mind though.

Jacob – Would be flirting with her when he thought she was a man underneath that armor in a light hearted way. Would start flirting with her hard once he learned she’s a woman.

Evie – She’d be fascinated with Samus’ weaponry and the tech behind it. She’d even ask if there was any similar suit she can try out but she’d feel strange once she learns how hard it is to stealth in them. She’d think Jacob would love to wear them though but she won’t tell Jacob that.

Bayek – He’d treat her the same way he had when they first met. Nothing will actually change. It’s not surprising to him considering he believes Aya is the strongest person in the entire world anyway.

Basim – Would definitely try to steal one of the smaller weapons for him to use on his own. Would also skirt the line of being polite and being flirty once he learns Samus is a woman. If this is post!Mirage Basim, he might be thinking of using this advanced technology for his own needs.

Random thoughts on Bridgerton Season 3 rewatch episode 1

I love Portia’s Norma Desmond-esque coat when she leaves the carriage.

Do the Bridgerton girls reuse the same court dress or are they just really similar? Same cut and fabric, different embellishments?

Parrot!

I think Colin’s return hair is my favorite styling. So swoopy.

There is a tiny bee embroidered on Benedict’s waistcoat

It is the Stowells who use BSL in the debut at Court , so I think it is Lady Stowell who is Deaf. I think we hear Miss Stowell speak later talking to Benedict.

What is the order the debutantes get presented in? I can’t figure it out

Poor, sweet Francesca is so bad at socializing.

Violet loves Penelope so much. She doesn’t like Cressida at all.

Colin’s voice is back to normal talking to Pen compared to the rest of the debutants

He’s trying so hard to impress her. And he gets denied. 😂

First appearance of Colin’s yellow waistcoat the day after court presentation

Mr. Dundas is an RSC actor! He was a great Benedick in the like 2014 Much Ado About Nothing.

We love a sneaky way to do an intimate scene (Anthony covering his head to go down on Kate).

God, I love Penelope’s gold shoes.

I do get a kind of desire vibes from Cressida staring at Penelope’s dress reveal

All of these men are regretting talking to Penelope. Poor dear Pen. I’m also shit at talking.

The sad thing is I know all the embroidery stitches.

I would love to see the Zebra Ball.

Anthony glaring at his old friends talking to Francesca. Love to see it.

Also, how do these men expect a young lady to answer “what makes you tick?” Fucking weirdos.

I love the conversation between Penelope and Francesca.

Penelope getting brain freeze was very Princess Diaries. Can someone gif that reference? Also a film where the heroine is in love with her best friend’s older brother.

After Cressida rips Penelope’s dress, you can clearly see that the are trying to cover up Claudia’s cast.

Listen, the “I miss you” line was such flirting but genuinely. Even if he doesn’t know it.

Eloise lecturing Cressida on frankness is honestly a bit hilarious

I love Eloise’s coat

1st appearance of Eloise’s summer muff to hide Claudia’s cast

Anthony and Kate leaving to make an heir: good for them. Probably not great for Violet because she has to handle her neurodivergent children by herself

Colin is so soft with Pen, I can’t. 🥹

I’m not sure who is dumber for this plan. Like it’s a dumb, but well-intentioned plan for Colin. Penelope, you know you love him.

Prudence and Phillipa, don’t you have your own homes?

[demigoddessqueens]

Assassins with a barista s/o who makes them amazing drinks after a successful kill?

You got it!!

Just as a bonus, they are all the type to tip generously and write cute messages on the receipts

Bayek

He swears you make the best chai tea lattes, but they taste all the better when you make them

Altair

You notice the bags under his eyes so you’re extra generous with the espresso shots, and even though it’s small talk, he enjoys you keeping him company

Ezio

A sweet vanilla or caramel latte that’s just as sweet you 😏

Edward

Just a black coffee to mix with his favorite rum, and all your spare time love 😘

Connor

He likes the tea refreshers you make with a dash of fruit sweetness to them, and the shy small talk makes it better

Shay

*going for when he was still an Assassin

He likes your Irish Cream concoctions and flirts outrageously to try and get some extra

Jacob

No coffee! But any of your assortment of teas with a dash of cream always puts him in a good mood

Arno

Cappuccinos with one of your fresh baked pastries, freshly whipped cream atop it.

Evie

Another tea lover that takes her to-go, smiling at the flirty messages you wrote on her cups

Desmond

He’s got a bit of a playful attitude sometimes so he likes to order your famous frappes, extra whipped cream

[sulfies]

Desmond would 100% have a praise kink. He can flirt like no one's business, but the minute any of the boys start telling him what a "good boy" he is or that he is "doing so good", his brain shuts down and he melts.

Or him having a horrible realization he has a daddy kink would be funny.

I think we can agree All the Assassins have praise kink... They all havent been appriciated enough lol. I think All (including Des) would be emberassed by it lowkey tho

Connor would say "hmm...better than how I would set it, good job" to Ezio after he sets a snare trap and ezio is like "...learned from the best" inside he is yippiiii~

Altaïr would praise Desmond in training and Desmond would instantly put 100% more and try to show off that he can fight like Altaïr lol

Ezio would say smthn like "Your thirst of knowledge makes me jelous Altaïr, You got a good head for a lot..." First altair would snip back at the innuendo but also be smug about Ezio calling him smart the whole day (even tho yes ofc he is duh)

Desmond would patch Connors wounds and be like "goddamn what did they feed you, how are you built like this, where did these genes go and why did they miss me?!" Admire his muscles and Connor slowly blushes more as he stares at the ground and if he maybe flexes his bicep or stuff a bit when Des touches...who can blame him

Someone could ask one of the 3 about a memory or something and they would be like "oh I dont remember it was yrs ago wasnt that big of a-" and Desmond would be like "I fkcn do, here is how it went and how awsome it was" and the other would be like trying to not grin the whole time like lovesick dumbass

-----

Now

Im such a fkcn party pooper but I dont like Daddy kink😭 no shaming those who like it tho, I do enjoy a hot father figure character. I think its the same w me not liking english petnames it just sounds weird to my ear lol 😭 Turkish also use "Baba" so I cant have him say it in other languages as well like for Altaïr lolol

[yandere-flower]

Hi! Long time fan of yours and I absolutely love reading about your oc's! I wanted to ask: Say Darling is playing a videogame that the yanderes thought was just an action RPG that they've been playing for a while now. Darling has gushed about the cool story and the fleshed out characters that they grew to love, which they think is nice; Darling's having fun and this is a good distraction away from interacting with people. One day, they grew curious enough to watch you play for a bit. 1/3

It starts off like they expected, a lot of fighting and magic, doing quests, yada yada yada. They're about to leave until you reach camp and start talking with some of the characters and suddenly they hear you gasp as one of the NPC's starts talking all sweet to you? As they watch the scene unfold, they are shocked to find out that THIS GAME HAS ROMANCE OPTIONS?! And are you squealing and giggling over what they're saying?! (cough- Baldur's gate COUGH) 2/3

How would they react/feel about this revelation? I doubt any of them is going to be happy about it but would some be petty about it? Would some try to understand why Darling likes that character so much? Would they act differently if Darling was IN a relationship with the yanderes? I personally gush over some of the romantic scenes in games, and Baldur's Gate 3 has such great character interactions that I can't help but love all of them. I hope this isn't too much to ask, thank you! 3/3"

I knew this was about Baldurs Gate immediately cause same...only doing the boys here since it'll get long but let me know if you want the girls version!

Sawyer- He plays video games but isn't quite into the culture as isn't into turn based as much so he's like "sure whatever can we play together". Very slow at learning and will cast fireball on you and kill you constantly because he doesn't understand. But has so much fun being a nuance to the NPCs, and the moment he accidentally flirts with someone he goes full panic mode and starts apologizing, refuses to romance anyone. Is a bit peeved why you romance, but won't stop you. He does try to understand why however, and gets a little huffy at each romance scene. Also slightly makes fun of your choices. Will try and shove them off the edge when you're not looking.

Desmond - This man has not touched a game....ever, but he's happy to see you're happy and actually a little glad you're so engrossed in some that keeps you indoors and away from people. I actually thing that Desmond wouldn't care? He knows it's fictional, it'll hopefully get you in the mood, and he likes how if he asks you some thing about the game, you'll gush to him for hours. He still has you. But depending on your romance choice he might get curious why you chose that

Mizu - This fucker has already completely a playthough, bought you a custom cosplay of Shadowhearts camp clothes, and constantly wants to roleplay with you. But also gets insanely upset if you so much as mention your romance option and will make fun of all the characters you like. Makes you stop your own playthough so you two can play co-op and he can "watch you".

Cliff - Has no interest in playing, but is familiar with DND back when it was popular when he was a child. Still not super interested, but he likes hearing you be passionate about something. If you mention your romance option he'll perk up a bit, get cheeky, and start to mimic the things you like if it aligns with him. Obviously expects you to romance Halsin though because he likes to imagine there are similarities....

Antonio - I'm torn, cause I do think he'll like the game but I also think he's a bit jealous of your time and will only let you play it with him "so I can share your hobby and see you get excited is all!" Will try and argue that you shouldn't have that character cause it's not good for your party comp, or try and disrupt your romance scenes. He wants to appear like a good sport, but very obviously isn't

Ezra- He hates it. He doesn't understand video games, but he likes seeing you happy. You should be hanging out with him though, and he knows there is co op but he's terrible at it and clearly isn't having fun. He seethes and mopes the entire time you play, and almost cries if you talk about your romance option. Why aren't any of them sweet or kind or like him?? Do you not like him??
