I saw that one post and it got me thinking

What if Desmond does have shape shifting abilities? And for some reason only Desmond could do that

The post where I joked about Desmond having shapeshifting abilities because he always looks like a different dude in every game he’s in.

You know what would be funny, nonny? If his shapeshifting capabilities only lets him change into what can be summarized as a ‘generic-looking dude’ but it is useful.

He first realized he had the capability to shapeshift when he ran away from the Farm. He had reached the nearest town and froze when he saw that a few adults from the Farm were already there, looking for him. One of them noticed him from afar and began to walk towards him and Desmond just panicked.

Then the man reached him and frowned as he got a good look on his face and went, “Sorry, kid. Thought you were my friend’s missing son for a sec.”

And Desmond was confused as to why the man didn’t recognize him. Then he saw his reflection in a nearby mirror and realized that his face was different.

From there, Desmond hid in a nearby ally and began to try to see how he could return to his own face but ended up figuring out how to change his entire body. He was able to shapeshift into an old man but he returned to his last body soon enough because he freaked out as his clothes began to stretch. The transformation itself wasn’t instantaneous, it was slow, as if his body was trying not to shock his nervous system or something.

From there, Desmond continued to shuffle thru his ‘choices’ that he seemed to be able to choose by thinking of criteria like ‘brown hair’, ‘dark brown eyes’, ‘maybe a few inches taller?’ and any physical attribute he could think of. His voice changes as well and each body seemed to have a different voice.

It was the perfect skill to hide from his parents and the adults from the Farm so Desmond made use of it.

By the time he got to New York, he had pretty much mastered it and he built many different ‘aliases’ based on the ‘bodies’ he was most comfortable with.

The bartender in Bad Weather was known for having a charming smile and some kind of European accent that many found sexy (which led to many successful ‘encounters’ and lots of tips and phone numbers).

The young man who walked the streets of New York always had a glare and unnerving eyes that seemed to glow gold in a certain light, deterring most people with bad intentions from even trying.

The one renting apartment 1311 was quite a large young man with a soft kind voice.

One of the regulars of the man selling bootleg CD and DVD copies behind a 7-11 was a scruffy man with dirty blond hair and some kind of accent that the seller didn’t know.

And Abstergo…

Abstergo is left wondering who this ‘Derek Milton’ is who had applied for a motorcycle license.

With a DNA that held the genetic memories of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad and Ezio Auditore.

And looks exactly like Ezio Auditore as Subject 16 remembered.

In other words:

Desmond can shapeshift to any of his ancestors (of any age) without realizing they’re his ancestors.

… And Desmond has been shuffling thru them for the past 9 years that he couldn’t even remember what he originally looked like.

my thoughts so far

[taino-ti]

look. all these posts about queer women artists to listen to instead of projecting onto taylor swift are Nice and All, but it is really telling that trans women hardly ever make these lists.

"Fifteen feet, huh? Must be so rough, Nyl."

"Not my fault your other forms are fuckin' massive. Maybe you should figure out how to change into a small fry, like Bahamut."

"I'd still like to be able to swim in this form too, though!"

"Personal super bathtubs for everyone! Pay up, Nyl! Orion, I'm coming for you next, o fearless and destructive leader! And I would like a garden, as well! May I also suggest some upgrades in the kitchen, too?"

I want a word with whoever gave me the 'go straight to "everyone hates me and I should leave them alone and never talk again and wow I should hurt and/or kill myself now" feelings in response to a perceived rejection' brain because genuinely WHAT the fuck, how could this ever possibly be a helpful thing to experience

[teecupangel]

I've been reading the repost that has "my guy is an Assassin with morales and sick bartending skills" in it and the misspell... that could be fun: Desmond + Morales as a pair of dimension/time-travelers

plus: "I'm Desmond Miles." "Like in Assassin's Creed Desmond Miles?" "... Exactly. Why do you look like a Marvel character?" "Like a what?" (or better yet: Desmond operating with the assumption that Miles is just a VERY dedicated fan for an embarrassing length of time)

The post by @auroramoon-draws16 that is referenced in this ask.

So we’re going with the assumption that in AC world, Miles Morales is a comicbook character while in Earth-1610B, Assassin’s Creed is a video game franchise. This would work because Miles’ first debut was in 2011 so, yeah, this would definitely work.

Also, this can be part of the Spiderverse has access to the Crossover Bar AU idea but Desmond and Miles met in Miles’ universe. The bar just appeared near Miles’ school so he checked it out as Spider-Man because, well, he doesn’t remember it being there before. Desmond immediately knew that Miles is underage (Eagle Senses pinging) and that draws Miles in because Desmond treats him like a normal kid even though he’s Spider-Man and gives him Shirley Temples (“What about the Shirley Templar?” “When you’re older, kid.”)

On Desmond’s side, he just thought this would be one of the chillest crossovers. Maybe this world was connected to that wackey but still ‘normal’ world of a community college and one of them did wear a Spider-Man costume (it was pajamas but Desmond wasn’t going to judge) once so, like, yeah, Desmond assumes this is another world that has Spider-Man as a comic book character.

And he’s like “oh, this dude’s pretty normal and his cosplay is reaaaaallly good” while Miles think Desmond is just the chillest (coolest) adult.

The day Desmond learned that Miles isn’t cosplaying but is an actual real Spider-Man?

When he went to his bar, breathing heavily, looking tired and battered, and asking for his help. He just needs a place to hide for a bit, he promises he won’t cause any tro-

CRASH!

Then other Spider variants crashed in his bar and…

Oh.

Well…

Desmond guessed it was time he fought superheroes…

Seriously, this afterlife was weird…

Confessional

Pairing: Wolfwood & Reader, Vash/Reader Rating: Explicit (for language and discussion of explicit topics) Words: 773 Tags: gender neutral reader, Wolfwood's stupid portable confessional, trigun 98, reader has a crush on Vash and thinks it's unrequited, Wolfwood is my best friend who makes me want to punch him in the face A/N: this isn't really crack but it sure is stupid!

“You’re brooding,” Wolfwood says, coming to lean against the siding of the building next to you.

You shoot him an annoyed glance. “I'm not brooding.”

He plows forward like he didn’t hear you. “It’s about needle-noggin, ain’t it?”

“No,” you lie, “it’s not.” It’s not about him, or the way you wish he felt even an ounce of what you feel for him, or the way he was so close to you last night while he was drunk and now is keeping a careful distance. It’s not about any of that. Of course it’s not.

“It’d probably help if you confessed your sins,” he says, pulling out that damn ‘portable confessional’ with a shit-eating grin that makes you roll your eyes at the best of times—and now just makes you scoff.

“Yeah,” you reply with biting sarcasm, “I’m sure it would.”

“Come on,” he says, grinning wider. “You know you want to.”

“Not a single part of me wants that, Nic. I don’t even know the however-many-sins-there-are.”

“Seven,” he supplies helpfully, ticking them off on his fingers: “pride, sloth, greed, gluttony, wrath, envy, and—“ he winks at you— “lust.”

You laugh, incredulous. “Right. Okay. You know what? Fuck it.” 

His eyebrows shoot up in surprise as you snatch the confessional from his hands, putting it over your head and crossing your arms over your chest. If he’s gonna be an ass, you’re gonna make him regret it. 

“You wanna hear me confess my fuckin’ sins, Nicholas? Here: hey, father, I’ve been lustful as hell! I can’t even look in his general direction without getting horny! I can’t stop thinking about making out with him, and every time he pulls a trigger I think about his fingers inside me! I wanna fuck him six ways to sunday, in every position imaginable, over and over again until neither of us can walk for days!!” You can’t see his face right now, but you hope you’re making it as red as yours feels—though, damn him, it does feel good to confess this shit to somebody. Even if that somebody is Wolfwood. “I am lustful every minute of every goddamn day, and especially every minute of the night. And, hey, Isn’t masturbation a sin? I’m super guilty of that one. Like super guilty. Like every night guilty. He so much as smiles at me and I’m gonna jack off about it. I want to ride him like a goddamn Tomas, and you know what? I’m so in love with him, it hurts!”

…Well, you’ve sort of lost the plot, now. And you’re feeling much less confident than you were ten seconds ago. You pull the stupid box off your head and hold it back out to Wolfwood, jaw set and face flushed. 

His eyebrows are still sky-high, but he doesn’t quite look like you’ve embarrassed him… just yourself.

“There,” you say with finality. “That’s my confession.”

“Hi guys!” the voice behind you makes the blood drain from your face. Come on. You feel the warmth of him as he comes up behind you—you feel his presence, like you always do. “What’s up?” Vash asks.

Wolfwood’s eyes dart to you, then up to meet Vash’s gaze as he grins predatorily. “Oh, they were just telling me something really funny.” He cocks his head at you, and you want to wipe that damn smile right off his face. “Hey, why don’t you tell Vash what you just told me?”

You’re going to kill him. You’re actually going to kill him. Glaring daggers, you do your best to make your tone cheerful, though it sounds forced even to your own ear. 

“Oh, it really wasn’t that funny!”

“Sure it was,” Wolfwood says, smug as all hell. “Made me laugh, anyhow.”

You grind your teeth.

“I’m sure it was funny, I wanna hear it!” Vash says, and Jesus Christ, why did you ever open your mouth?

“Yeah, he wants to hear it,” Nicholas taunts.

You take a deep breath. “Oh! Hey, uh, I just remembered that Meryl and Milly need me for—um—something! Gotta run!”

With one final death glare thrown Wolfwood’s way, you turn on your heel, pointedly not looking at Vash as you make your completely un-smooth exit—you can’t let him see the way your face is burning.

God. Wolfwood’s never gonna let you live this one down.

Vash frowns as you leave, sure that he’s stepped into something, but not sure what. “What was so funny, Wolfwood?”

Nicholas claps him on the shoulder, the portable confessional set down on the ground. “Believe me,” he says, slipping a cigarette between his lips. “You’re gonna wanna hear it from them.”

Top 5 (it's 6 but shh) believers of "I can make him worse"

5. Vanyllo/Tarinx

I've been trying to decide between these two since I started working on the other post, and I ultimately couldn't. Both of them are fucked up in more or less the same ways though, and while they wouldn't push the people they loved too hard to do bad stuff...it wouldn't be something they necessarily avoided, either. To them, it's just part of the way life is. Sometimes giving in and punching that person heckling you in the face is therapeutic, okay? Seeing the person who thought they could push your friend around beaten and bruised at your feet can be a thrill you don't find elsewhere.

The only reason they're so low is because a lot of what they would be making people worse with is violence alone, and not too much else.

4. Ezzion

Possibly ironic for someone that used to be in charge of people that were locked away for doing messed up things. Still, Ezzi has always been of the mindset that if you want something, you take it. You deserve it, so you should get to have it! What? Someone else has it though? Well that sucks for them, doesn't it?

The only reason they're not higher, is because they usually don't care too much what other people do, as long as they're not stopped from doing what they want to do. If they try to convince anyone to do something bad, it's usually for the fun of it.

3. Ber

Ber will almost always encourage the worse of two options, I can guarantee it. If it helps the one he cares for (or himself) come out on top, he's not above dragging anybody into his bs. A lot like Ezzi in the "You have power, why wouldn't you just take/do what you want?" camp.

Sometimes he'll even build someone up into doing fucked up things just so he can step back and blame them for something that he did. Serves them right for thinking he would ever choose them over himself. (though there are a couple exceptions that he would never do this with)

2. Pereux

...Please tell me what you expected from someone who used to be referred to with titles such as "The Monsterous Nightmare", "The Nightmare/Terror Queen", and "The Phantom Queen"?

She's not quite as bad as when she was still going by Mórrígan, and she won't act in a manner that's against something she has foretold happening...but outside of that? She's as bloodthirsty and dangerous as any of the Aos sí and Fae can be.

1. Death

They're honestly just a little nutcase. Absolutely batshit insane. And they have an energy that somehow manages to sweep up just about anyone in their shenanigans...regardless of whether they meant to be, or not.

Again, like Pere, I don't know what else would be expected from them. They're literally the final Horseman of the Apocalypse. They're gonna encourage some indulgence in the immoral whenever they have the opportunity to do so.

[slipperhunting]

In my art about my palian Sef, she got scars over time and even has arm and leg coverings. I thought maybe make a backstory to how she got the scars, reference Hassian's romancr voiceline, "If anything happens to you... just stay safe", mix in Hassian's lore with his momma and show what I feel like is romance level three in the game (which is basically the first kisses)

Btw word of warning there's like blood and wounds under the read more cut aside from that enjoy~ and also muujins are hard to make scary they look like goofy ass dogs in game
