the target audience for this is completely dead but. i thought it was funny.

Deimos!Kassandra/Aspasia longfic, featuring:

✅️ Deimos becoming increasingly unhinged ✅️ Aspasia sizing Deimos up, thinking 'I can fix her', and accidentally making her 10X worse ✅️ Relationship dynamics so toxic that they need a hazard warning sign ✅️ An appropriate volume of Kleon-bashing ✅️ Chaos, angst and drama with a happy ending

I really appreciate your analyses of Kyra and her relationship with Kassandra. Something that’s been frustrating to me in video game fandom is that even if you’re lucky and get a compelling female main character, the chances of any potential female love interest also getting a fair shake in canon is very low (looking at you Lara Croft/Sam Nishimura… 🙃). Therefore, any deeper dive into the love interest in fic is always HIGHLY appreciated. I’m also curious: what is your opinion on Daphnae and Aspasia, and their respective potential romances with Kassandra?

So you're saying I should write more analysis dispatches from the SS Kyssandra? 🤣

(Before I answer your question, I must admit that I'm no multishipper. I trip face-first into a ship and cling to it for dear life until I tire of it. But that doesn't mean I can't opine on demand.)

Daphnae, Daphnae, Daphnae. So devoted to her goddess. So fucking unHiNgEd. "Go run around Hellas killing big beasties to prove your love worthiness as my opponent." After the first couple of pelts Daphnae had to have known that Kassandra was going to be the one. I respect a woman with a death wish.

Artemis is the goddess of young girls and maidenhood, of wild lands and wild beasts. But a young woman's freedom comes to an end in marriage, to a stranger she's only just met and had no time to love, with whom she's expected to bear children that she will of course love with all her being, but at what cost...

What I mean to say is I think this storyline is the first and only time Kassandra is a metaphor for marriage.

Now let's talk about Aspasia as a love interest for Kassandra. Kasspasia fans avert your eyes! And people who haven't played the main AC:O storyline and don't want to be spoiled. Scroll away!

Kasspasia is my NOTP. I can see Aspasia seducing an unsuspecting Kassandra. I can see how that would be delicious in a soap opera kind of way. (Such a tragic reveal!) But what I can't see is Kassandra letting Aspasia live after finding out the true identity of the Ghost, not after saying:

"I will not stop until every last Cultist has met my spear. You will be erased from history. I will erase you."

No matter how silky it is between Aspasia's sheets, the idea that Kassandra would forgive her for being the Ghost just does not compute. My big logic brain can't accept it in any circumstance, not when there's an equally compelling, educated, intensely charismatic woman over on the Silver Islands waiting to be wooed, a woman who, most importantly, is not a member of the Cult.

That said, I might be interested in an AU where deimos!Kassandra and Aspasia get it on in their secret villain lair. Someone write me that fic.

This is all, of course, my opinion.

oooooh kass + a song that reminds you of her + a popular headcanon that you disagree with 👀

fuck it i'll do both 😈

kassandra:

a song that reminds me of them: the only two kass moods are horny and angsty, so... janelle monae make me feel + fleetwood mac landslide :)

what they smell like: ancient greece kassandra always smells like the sea no matter how long it's been since she's spent time on the adrestia. modern-day kass smells like hugo boss cologne

an otp: brasidas of course!!! and also eivor. ubisoft i am IN your WALLS.

a notp: was never a fan of kasspasia tbh but i don't know if it's just because it was so poorly executed in the game. but i never romance her lol

favorite platonic/familial relationships: i get why we didn't get to see it, but i wish we had more (read: ANY) interactions between kass and deimos/alexios in the good ending. there's so much potential there for growing together and healing from their past traumas and learning how to function around each other or how to be a family after everything they've gone through... but then again i can see how that sort of relationship growth really doesn't lend itself well to odyssey's overall game format and ubisoft would probably have botched it anyway

a headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that i disagree with: fuck idk i feel like odyssey fandom is so dead i don't even remember what there is to disagree about!

the position they sleep in: she's a stomach-sleeper for sure

a crossover au i’d love to see them in: literally any other assassin's creed game ever PLEASEEEEEEEEE

my favorite outfit they’ve ever worn: i'm partial to the basic game-cover red mercenary set! i would like the modern-day suit more but it just looks cheap idk i like the concept of it more than the execution. my girl deserved to die in armani AT LEAST, not whatever polyester billboard lawyer rent-a-suit they stuck her in

eivor:

a song that reminds me of them: drum + fife by smashing pumpkins

what they smell like: bonfires and sage

an otp: kassandra!!!! also vili

a notp: ivarr. ew.

favorite platonic/familial relationships: varin!!! i would argue that eivor's relationship with her father's memory is THE defining relationship of acv, even more so than her relationship with sigurd, and although i wish we'd seen more of it in the midgame rather than just the beginning and the end, it was really beautifully done

a headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that i disagree with: my answer for all of these is going to be so boring because i really don't know what is or isn't popular in the fandom and i really haven't seen anything i disagree with. idk how to answer this i'm sorry!!!

the position they sleep in: fetal position, or big spoon. especially if she's sharing a bed with vili

a crossover au i’d love to see them in: it's not a crossover with any other series, but i would like to see an au where eivor turns her back on the hidden ones and ultimately for whatever reason ends up helping alfred form the templars. templar!eivor is very very sexy to me.

my favorite outfit they’ve ever worn: i think most of the armor sets in valhalla are absolutely hideous so i'll go with the very basic, no-upgrades raven clan armor for this one

niche character asks :)

[dmisthios]

Sorry not sorry

Kassandra x Aspasia

If someone walked past me like that, I'd die tbh

[bravekassandra]

Who else a h0e for the bodyguard trope with Kassandra protecting Aspasia? Canon or divergent, I love the plot. Please read the ficThe Wolf and the Doe and you won't regret it.

[moghedien]

honestly it’s kinda hilarious that you get the option to romance Aspasia at the end because it kinda frames Aspasia deciding to reveal herself as her being like “I’m willing to gamble that Kassandra is more horny than she is angry” and she was right

[erinmar13]

📚📚📚📚📚!

fanfiction that I haven’t written but daydream about....

have a smattering of fandoms in the process.

Sadie Adler/Bonnie MacFarlane (Red Dead 1)

Bonnie meets Sadie instead of John

Sadie is hunting down a bounty for the Del Lobo gang

Bonnie asks Sadie to go after whoever is stealing her livestock

Sadie refuses at first, but then agrees for the money

dramatic things happen

Del Lobo gang attacks the farm one night

Sadie happens to be there cuz she just can’t find it in herself to leave when she and Bonnie are having such a pleasant time together

bang bang shoot em

Sadie decides to take up permanent residence at the farm....for Bonnie’s safety

romantical things happen

last scene is Sadie on the porch with her harmonica in hand, Bonnie comes up and asks Sadie to play it

Sadie thinks about it and decides to play a tune for her(anyone who remembers rdr2 and Sadie’s backstory will catch the importance of this)

Aela/Dragonborn (Skyrim)

ties in with the Companions questline

bonding as they go after the Totems of Hircine

Totem locations (3, only 1 decided)--Bloodlet Throne

Savior’s Hide quest

my notes for this are mostly feelings in my head

i love that Aela is unapologetic about her gift (whereas the rest consider it a curse)

at least a couple nights of running through Skyrim as werewolves together

i liked this ship BEFORE i realized that Aela is the one who turns you if you pursue it, which just....gods is that sexy

AC Odyssey (2 fics, cuz my notes are small)

Kassandra/Aspasia

Kassandra visits Aspasia after Perikles’ death

while she misses--and did love--Perikles, Aspasia takes comfort in Kassandra (someone she has just unmistakable, electric chemistry with)

Kassandra feels some guilt about sleeping with her so soon after Perikles’ death, but Aspasia allays this feeling

Kassandra/Kyra (reincarnation)

i have literally NO notes on this that are not questions

but it’s something on the list

the idea of Kassandra just doing her thing and then BAM running across the reincarnation of Kyra? *chef’s kiss*

did you want some Oliviza ideas too? i got ‘em!

Noir AU

no real story notes, just a genre concept and characterization ideas

my single note for this idea is:

“detectives, dames, murder, sexy button ups and cigarettes”

i’m thinking Olivier as a PI, Riza as the dame who comes to seek her services

maybe Roy was murdered? maybe i keep it as Hughes who dies?

maybe it’s not a murder but a recovery of a precious family secret that was stolen and is being held for ransom(i’m actually really liking that idea...)

this idea is 100% because i saw some fanart of them in some noir-esque clothes and was just like YES

y’all want one more? fuck it, i’ll give you one more...

Oliviza firefighter AU (been talking bout this one for a while)

Olivier is a station chief in Central

she also has an undercut and almost exclusively wears tank tops(because sleeves are bullshit)

Riza is a police lieutenant(her rank still up in the air, but it’s 100% possible for Riza especially to climb to that rank by her age)

Riza is investigating a series of arsons around town, she hits a dead end and comes to ask Olivier for her help

Roy and the gang have a private investigating group that specializes in fires and arsons(they get most of their work investigating insurance claims)

BACKSTORY ALERT

Riza and Roy grew up in a cult that worshiped fire, lead by Bertholde

Bertholde recruited Roy, who was already a firebug, to be his successor(and intended him to marry Riza)

Roy and Riza escape the cult and they process their trauma threw their respective ways of helping others

Olivier hates Roy because she has, personally, had to put out many fires he started

it’s also HIGHLY SUSPECTED(but never proven) that Roy killed the members of the cult by means of their precious fire, so Olivier absolutely does not trust him

these arsons force everyone to work together to find the culprit before he/she starts killing people with the fires

desk sex absolutely happens

possibly shower sex

this story has a LOT of really amazing things in it, but it is a bit beyond me as a writer

mystery/riddle plots are NOT my forte, but we’ll give it a shot one day

i’ll give you another, because i forgot about it and at this point i will NEVER write it.

Bering and Wells (WH13, with some Buffy crossover)

this one has two timelines in it, which is ridiculously ambitious of my brain

modern timeline has Myka and HG trying to hunt down the Marquis de Sade’s straight razor before...well, you can guess

past timeline has Victorian!HG hunting after the same artifact in London, specifically Whitechapel, 1888 (google if you don’t recognize off the top of your head, you’ll understand)

HG manages to track the razor to the possession of a dashing man named Angelus, his paramour, and companions

little bit of Victorian!HG/Darla

modern HG has to process some Things and Feelings regarding her past and the artifact that she allowed to slip away because of her naivete and letting herself be a little bit seduced by Darla

[observer-kadac]

The bow Kleon used was 'Paris' bow', the weapon of cowards. I like these details in odyssey.

[inkedshepard]

when your tour guide asks you if there’s something else you want to do, but you're operating on one brain cell to keep your mind out the gutter.

[jove999]

Kasspasia, But in Roman time (Back story : I borrowed my favorite headcanon from the fandom : Aspasia become immortal with kass, Plus a little vibe from This is How You Lose the Time War book? You guys know this book? I always think of protagonists as kasspasia). Kass come to kill aspasia, failed, and she gets killed (executed) instead. That was the story I originally thought while drawing.... yuh

[blue-mono]

Two wildly different pairings, one united vendetta

[semperintrepida]

Despite my current creative uncertainty, one thing's for sure: I'll be writing at least one more fanfic before everything's said and done. Perhaps it will be yours?

My Fandom Trumps Hate profile can be found here. Bidding starts March 5th!

Organizations this auction benefits: Winning bidder's choice of any of the listed non-profit groups (See full list.)

Type of fanwork: Written fanwork Subtype(s): fan fiction (new) Fandom(s): Assassin's Creed, Horizon Zero Dawn, A Plague Tale (Videogame Series) Highest rating: E Length/scope: 5 -10k words. Minimum Bid: $5

Especially interested in: I write F/F and gen stories about "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", but could write for the "Horizon Zero Dawn" and "A Plague Tale" series of games as well. I'm at my best writing stories from the POV of the main protagonists or major NPCs: Kassandra, Kyra, Aloy, and Amicia, but if you've got someone else in mind, let's discuss. I'll write F/F smut if you want; please take a look at my profile for examples. Prompts involving consensual BDSM/power play are welcome if that's your jam. My OTP is kyssandra (Kassandra x Kyra) but if you're my highest bidder, I'll make an exception for you if you're hankering for something else. (That said, please do review my NO list below.) I can write fluff, angst, and pretty much anything in between. Third person, first person, past or present tense are all fine by me.

Things I won't write: male protagonists (sorry, I can't do them justice!), kasspasia (Kassandra x Aspasia), X-reader/reader insert, Omegaverse, genderbent characters, non-con/dub-con, underage, BDSM involving scat/watersports/bloodplay

Other notes: The development of your prompt will be a collaboration between us. You've gotta bring big ideas you're excited about, and I've gotta vibe with your prompt to write something good. I work best from generalities and broad sketches—if you're looking for a very specific scenario with lots of fine details you're expecting me to include, I might not be the writer for you. After we agree on a prompt, I'll write a brief plot treatment and run it by you. Then I'll write the first draft, which you'll be welcome to advance read (AR) and offer feedback. Then I'll edit the work to the best of my ability, and if all goes well, we'll end up with something we're both proud of. My goal as a writer is to make you feel like you're right there in the action, fighting and fucking, laughing and playing. I will make you feel like you're somewhere else, somewhen else, someone else.

[Bidding instructions soon to come...]
