Thoughts ond the new web comic for ac black flag?

Someone in the Kenway bloodline is a whore and I hope the plot twist is it isn’t Edward but Haytham. XD

Okay, so in all seriousness, Edward Kenway is like the 2nd poster boy of Assassin’s Creed and it shows. Before this webtoon, there was also a manga called Assassin’s Creed Black Flag: Kakusei (usually translated as ‘Awakening’) and it is considered as noncanon (where the descendant is a half-Japanese student that's Edward's descendant from his mother's side) while the webtoon seemed to be considered to be canon.

So for the webtoon, I have dipped my feet in the high seas and all I could find was the Indonesian version for the 1st chapter so I can’t be sure of what’s happening but the main character is a descendant of Edward Kenway and this is set after Black Flag.

Which is a bit weird as the ending of Black Flag made it clear that Edward was returning to England with Jenny but it’s highly possible that Edward is in that time period where he’s looking for Isu related artifacts and temples for the Brotherhood (which included the temple in Alamut).

I always assumed that Edward had that adventure after Haytham was born as noted in AC wiki though but, because this webtoon is supposed to be canon and set after Black Flag, it's highly possible it must have taken the genetic memory of Edward Kenway from the main character and one of the plot points is that Edward would have a love interest in this one and the main character is a descendant of Edward and that love interest.

Because if they were using Desmond Miles' genetic memory, the Edward Kenway portions of the webtoon must happen between late 1722 - early 1725 (at most 8~10 months before December). In other words, before Haytham is conceived.

If they were using the main character's genes though, it's free game 'cause I won't be surprised if Edward cheated on someone like Tessa Kenway. (cheating is bad though so please don't)

Now, one could argue, “maybe they’re using Edward’s remains like what Layla did?” and yes, that’s a possibility. Just because the main character is a descendant does not mean Abstergo is using his actual genetic memory to access Edward’s memories. For all we know, he’s being used to get a high synchronization rating using the DNA from Edward's remains.

So I guess we’ll just have to see where this goes.

But the most important thing:

The fuck is this? Is that supposed to be Altaïr and Ezio???

Are you guys telling us he’s also the descendant of Altaïr and Ezio?! Because I call bullshit on that. This would mean that this dude would have had to have a similar genetic makeup to Desmond unless you’re going to say “oh, the Altaïr genes came from Darim not Sef, don’t worry”. One of the main points in AC is that Desmond is the only known descendant of Auditore AND Ibn-La'Ahad blood (until Elijah). If the main character has the same bloodline as Desmond, then dear god, Minerva’s gonna grab this innocent bystander and drag him to the Grand Temple to be sacrificed instead of Desmond.

Or is this another case of “we thought that Ezio was Altaïr’s descendant, oops!” that I’ve seen in two different official Japanese AC booklet???

Although...

So wild wild theory...

Absolutely not gonna happen...

The age of the main character is a bit of a mystery but if this is set in 2023 and he's around mid teens to at most 19, he could be another one of Desmond's kids. 20 is pushing it and anything beyond that though would be, uuuhhh, possible but you don't wanna think about that.

"Tell your baby that I'm your baby" but it's Severus watching as Sirius laughs and jokes with Minerva and Albus and he's calling her "Minnie" and she swats at him with a laugh and says it seems Azkaban didn't kill that cheeky streak of his now did it "ye wee sugar-tongued menace" but when Severus says anything even slightly disrespectful like that she scolds him and tells him to remember who his elders are, and Sirius is there and he's making her laugh, Sirius is there calling her "Aunt Minerva" after that and she's calling him her "lad" but that's what Severus gets to call her, Severus is supposed to be Minerva's "lad", but it only took a few moments for him to have what Severus has taken 13 years to catch even a tiny little piece of, Minerva's taken it away to give to Sirius at once, and there's Albus just smiling and his eyes are twinkling like stars like they've never twinkled at Severus, he can't remember if Albus ever looked at him like that, and it only took a short while for Sirius to once again have the favour, the love, that Severus has spent over a decade trying to earn even a fraction of, he's their golden boy again, he gets to sit with them and laugh with them and call them his mates, he's their boy, even though Severus has done everything he can, yet no, it's Sirius who they love effortless, it's Sirius who didn't need to do a thing to earn it, it's Sirius who has now taken his place, Sirius is their "snarky lad" now, he's come in and taken it all.

And neither of the two seem to care that Severus is the one who's supposed to be theirs.

Speaking of BioShock Infinite, have I ever told you about that time I made a timeline of the BioShock series?

Tumblr made the image smaller so I’ve uploaded the original here :)

It’s far from being exhaustive because the reason I drew this in the first place was to make sure I really understood Infinite (the ending, especially) and Burial at Sea, so only the most significant and/or pivotal events are featured here. I later added some stuff from the other two games and the Minerva’s Den DLC after playing them. However, the novel BioShock: Rapture isn’t included because I haven’t read it (and it seems it’s generally not considered canon anyway).

I made this 8 years ago (with Paint, haha) but very recently translated it and made some adjustments so I could post it! I didn’t check everything I wrote because it’s been a while since I’ve really thought about the lore of BioShock, so I decided to trust my 2015 self and assume she knew what she was doing :’)

final season girls!!!

i drew this to try to get me out of art block, it was really fun i enjoyed it i love all the girls from this game, i was originally going to draw lilly too but she didn’t fit with the theme. i hope to redraw this in the future and maybe add the boys to it as well. for now enjoy this :3

i hope to draw brody and minerva more in future, i really like their characters. this took me around 13 hours, i redid minnie and the outlines for ruby twice lol. clem and vi were the first ones i drew and unfortunately the style is kind of inconsistent with them, i need to figure out how i like to draw them hehe.

Of course James Potter was Minerva’s favorite. Fleamont is her best friend and she is James Godmother after all.

I've started reading the Odyssey but I'm very bitter about the fact that in this book (and most Portuguese translations tbf) they say Ulisses instead of Odysseus. so I keep calling the book Ulissey instead

Desmond miles 🤝 paul atreides 🤝 eren yeager

I saw my ancestors memories, I saw what you have done to them, so I will do the same to you.

I am the culmination of desperation and hatred, I was created thousands of years ago, my destiny written and carved into the very universe.

But I will not yield, You have created me to change the world and I will do it. But not in the way you want me to. I puppet my own strings, and with this path you made, even for the salvation I was suppose to bring to you. My hands will be stained in blood, and the only thing you can hope is that all those thousands of lives you gave will be enough.

the reason i’m excited that i’m having fun with gwenyf (my current cadash) is that if i succeed with a dwarf rogue i will satisfy all the bizarre elements of my brain that wish me to have one protagonist of each class and race via minerva keir gwenyf. and i will finally, for at least one worldstate variant, be at peace

[m00neroni]

I understand that the author kept the fact that Remus was an actual active and loved part of the Marauders as a way of maintaining some kind of secretism, especially with his connection to Sirius.

But, it makes me feel so bad for him. Like, how much more invisible can he be? How overlooked even by someone like Minerva, who loved her students so much? What a fucking loser.

[lesvianism]

i feel like people wouldn’t have been so shitty in regards to violet if the game was more transparent about the issues within violet and minerva’s relationship before she was taken.

like i’m pretty sure the game developers did mention how vi wasn’t really getting the treatment she should’ve been (??) in the relationship, and you do see it in certain scenes, but those scenes are mostly in the romance violet route, so people who already decided to hate her and only play the louis route didn’t get to see them.

sabertooth is just a guild made up of fairy tail fans who were too sad that their fav had disappeared to actually go join fairy tail

[orphicflames]

&. // @xfulmen cont

❛ . . . ❜ Impactful words echoed cranial walls; expression remained stoic. De facto, there was understanding within said words, yet the individual that expressed them managed to catch him off guard. Interactions between them were nonexistent almost -- barely during the gargantuan spectacle of the Grand Magic Games. And yet the element of surprise had taken its place ( albeit the austerity still depicted upon his face ) And yet, they had something in common. A paternal figure looming like a shadow upon them. Oh, how much he abhors being referred as ' Makarov's grandson '. Perhaps something similar applies to her? Who knows. ❛ You too. You are not your father, nor just ' Guildmaster's daughter '. ❜

part of her wants to laugh, emerald gaze shifting away towards the glass of wine she was swirling around absently. sure, he may come closest amongst the fairies to actually understanding her position, but he didn't know her. the old man, as foolish as he seemed to her, probably didn't have nearly as strong a belief in strength as her father did. and that made all the difference in how the two had turned out.

he was the pride of his guild, she the monster of hers.

" oh, don't play naïve, it's unbecoming of you. i am my father's daughter, and no attempt at some better publicity will change that. " he should know better than that, after all. " the orland name could... use some, i will admit, but i will never escape it, nor do i want to. "
