Achilles: How many bears did  I say you could have?

Connor: One.

Achilles: And how many bears do you see here?

Connor: Four.

Uh. In a completely unprecedented question, what headcanons do you have for Widowmaker?

Take care to not be on the receiving end of her anger

She may not have as many emotions as she once did, but there are the rare occasions where she does exhibit rage

If you’re gonna be in a relationship with her, know that she does love you, she just doesn’t show any form of physical or emotional affection easily

Amélie Lacroix may be alive, but she isn’t always going to be there. After all, people will tell you that she isn’t Amélie anymore, she’s Widowmaker now.

When she leaves for a Talon mission, she does check in at a very specific time just to make sure you’re still alive

Understanding the impact Gérard Lacroix’s death had on her

On the day Gérard died, Amélie shuts down emotionally and you keep your distance from her to let her mourn

Do not underestimate her. Ever.

Have you seen what happened to her targets? Good luck trying to escape from her when she comes after you

Even though the two of you may not seem like it, you do care for each other and that’s all you can ask for.

It's been a while since I've sent you an unnecessary rambling ask... so, what did you think about (my mans) Desmond? I.e., did you think he was a compelling main character, do you think his death helped the story, do you approve of his semi-posthumous marriage to me, etc...?

As a forewarning, spoilers on Desmond Miles ahead. Also, long post.

Desmond...

I’ll admit, I didn’t get into AC early on. Think it was Brotherhood that was my first one -- and that was around the time AC3 had come out.

To me, Desmond has always been a protagonist to root for in a “let that boy rest” kind of way. He grew up in his father’s constantly disapproving shadow, locked away in a compound with Assassins who, let’s face it, outwardly look like conspiracy theorist nutcases, until it broke him and he left at fucking 16. Uprooted, fleeing the Assassins who’d helped train him, and having to start a whole new life with the constant anxiety of being found.

And of course he was found. After 9ish years of freedom, he’s captured by Templars, poked and experimented on, escapes and makes new friends -- both real and the digitized wisp of a former “experiment” like him that committed suicide from the stress of the fucking Animus Desmond uses constantly. And of course... stone cold murders his Templar friend who was out to betray him and others. Which he’d done unwillingly while some alien entity was controlling his body through the very item HE’D WORKED SO HARD TO GET. All of this is done while he’s reliving every tragic and furious memory of his ancestors, of course.

And then what happens? Back into it to save the world again. No time to grieve. No, no. The world dies in a few months. He meets up with his father again and isn’t that just the cherry on the shitcake because of course William has’t changed. Still disapproving and a horrible, demanding, cold reminder of everything Desmond had wanted to leave behind.

And that, finally, is where we see things turn around for Desmond after less than 4 months of countless deadly encounters. Amends are made with his father, there’s plans to see his mother, and a cautious hope that maybe when this is all over it will be okay.

THEM BAM.

He fries himself saving the world while being manipulated by the same alien entity that had him murder his friend, and even in his diddly darn death he doesn’t get any peace because there’s the Templars to pick up his corpse and put it to use because why wouldn’t they by harvesting his DNA and his genetic memories. Jfc, even his damn personal items, voicemails to his father, weren’t safe from examination.

And in the end, that child he’d unknowingly fathered at 18 is growing up, is a goddamn sage, and well-tracked on the Templar’s radar. :’)))

Everything Desmond did and does is only just enough. And more is always asked of him. Always. One of those “doomed from the start” characters. A happy ending would have been preferred, but since that wasn’t going to happen... again, I say: let that goddamn boy rest. 

But, hey. You asked for answers, not a rant.

Do I think Desmond is a compelling main character? Hell yeah.

Did his death help the story? It technically set the framework for later games and introductions of other beloved characters and their stories so... begrudgingly, I say yes. (Yes, yes, I’m well aware this all could have happened without his death. Note the ‘begrudgingly’ part.)

Do I approve of his semi-posthumous marriage to you? Of course. But you’ve got to do what you can to protect his baby from another lady. Or else Desmond Jr. is going to go through the same things his papa did.

@jeveuxxvivre replied to your post: Oh my god Sam doesn’t respond after leaving...

Dude I just passed that point and I think it’s my favorite dialogue because it’s #me too tbh. I love all the boaty levels

IT MADE ME KIND OF SAD he’s getting overwhelmed to start losing it at the drop of a pin. I say “same” out of some attempt to humor my way out of crying

I love all these missions with Sam! As much as I wanna see Sully again like old times I love hearing the brothers banter by themselves. I still think about the one with Nathan missing the hook every time I have to rope onto something

'Sup? I'm a 5'8, light skinned black girl who speaks French and loves writing. I'm pretty chatty but I've always got that constant "JesusChristshutupme" vibe going. Uhh I love hip hop and being sarcastic and I'm also a docent and a junior librarian! Which is dope. (Love your writing, bichette, you're the best!)

I ship you with Rebecca!

Listen, the two of you are definitely chatty, Shaun will definitely sense when he needs to tell you two to be quiet and Rebecca loves it when you sarcastically tell Shaun off in French. You remind Rebecca to take breaks by helping you plot out your next written work or randomly selecting a book you think she’ll enjoy in her spare time. Rebecca definitely jams out to hip hop with you as you’re blaring it from your device. Sometimes she’ll even make you dance with her if she particularly likes a certain song and finds it worthy to dance to. Honestly, you and Rebecca are unstoppable with your enthusiasm and fiery personalities, anyone would be stupid to try and harm one without being skewered by the other.

is this sappho’s way of telling me that i’m not getting a gf in the last 30 minutes of pride month

[ac-origins]

ahh, d&d, huh? i've been trying to form a group together irl but apparently high school nerds are lone wolves and it takes multiple inhalers and at least one netflix password to summon us all in one place. btw, what's your alignment? i'm a classic...how you say... Chaotic Stupid.

I had some luck getting a group on Roll20. Should check it out! 

As for me... Chaotic good all the way! Maybe I’m boring for picking the alignment that’s essentially “do what you want” good, but it speaks to me the most.

i hate to contribute to straight culture but on the real my momma was super geeked when i told her the assassin's creed movie bc michael fassbender dates "real black women" which i guess is The Face?? but anyways he's dating alicia vikander now (whom is very pretty and very white) and the asscreed movie was trash, so

yeah michael has The Face(TM) and a long track record that includes actual mermaid queen nicole beharie but we don’t discuss it here

and 

we

won’t
