@wolfkcst asked: "Spar with me." It's blurted out before they could stop themselves - eyes gazing up at the taller with curiosity and wonder. They have seen him in action before and they wish to see more. -Jing

"Very well~" Wait, really? He's accepting? Just like that? Huh. "Where shall we host this spar? And what rules do you wish to enforce? Weapons or no weapons? Are there any locations that are off limits for hitting?"

A little bit more on Mirage

So far from the dwv comments I get a feeling that the games Mirage would resemble most would be Unity and Syndicate

Except for the purported fame scale, which is closer to Ezio trilogy. The only difference being, I have a feeling there would be no way to reduce fame levels in Mirage?... But that is just my feeling so far

As to why I feel like the rest would be more like Unity and Syndicate? So far the fighting and parkour look the most like those games. Just spruced up with a new game engine and the fluidity that reminds me of Origins

(No offence meant for the rest of Layla trilogy - but Greece did not give as many climbing opportunities that weren't large buildings or cliffs And Valhalla - well. No matter how well you do it, Eivor just feels heavier than either Bayek or Kassandra / Alexious. My pet theory is that it was because she was made with heavy gear in mind, and it carries no matter what you put on her)

I am kind of curious what chain assassination would look and feel like in the end - and boy, do I see a lot of noise around it. Which, fair, right now it looks like something that belongs in Ragnarok DLC. But I do hope there would be some in lore explanation for why it looks like that? E.g. like they did with the whole Asgard sequence for Eivor. Maybe it's just Loki leaking and processing the surroundings at ISU speed instead of regular human speed. And since we play as Basim, we piggyback off that

They bring him a dagger with his name engraved on it and precious jewels. All for his birthday. -Diluc // local viking appears before u with gift

He appreciates the gifts... always does, always will, even if he really, truly does not need them ( though, he'll make generous use of this dagger -- it's beautiful, and sure to slice better, DEEPER, than the ones currently in his collection that have dulled with use and time ), but the way he looks at Eivor, it's evident he desires something far more on a day like this. He hasn't slept a wink in the days leading up to this, and hasn't had the appetite to attempt more than a few slices of dry toast and a sip of coffee, here and there. He doesn't need gifts, he doesn't need repetitive, recycled affirmations that ' it gets easier, time heals all wounds, ' because it damn well does not...

Diluc just needs... company. A presence. He reaches out for Eivor, tentative in the gesture, and cannot look them in the eye; HE FEELS PATHETIC, but he doesn't want them to go, and silently pleads, in the way he steps just that tiny bit closer, for them to stay. The two of them needn't even do much of anything... they can sit and watch the leaves sway, or watch the bugs skitter across the dirt.

" Stay... ? If... you are able... "

Just for a little bit... so he can say he enjoyed something nice today...

Eivor still did not know what the gods were up to. She had appeared in a flash of white, blinding the drengr briefly before seeing the woman on the ground. How she got there and why, Eivor had no answers too; and the gods had not given her any. Odin pestered her mind, speaking of future powers and that if she could find a way to possess them she, too, could take her place with glory and honor at her side with the power in her hand; but Eivor did not care to listen to the ramblings of the mad god in her mind.

Instead, she had brought Evie back to the settlement, giving her one of the guest houses. She settled down the clothing she had found (a spare black tunic and pants) in case she wished to change. "I understand. I can't claim to know how or why this is happening, but perhaps the gods brought you back for a reason. Until then, you will be safe in Ravensthorpe, though you seem more than capable of handling yourself. Would you prefer I leave you alone for the evening?" Eivor questioned, her raspy voice whipping against the light smoke of the fire that billowed upward, keeping the little house warm.

❝  hey,  is this asshole bothering you?  ❞

[warpaiint]

Eivor allowed herself to gently be kept in bed, leaning back as she closed her eyes at the touch of her hand on her forehead. "I don't feel sick," the words left her lips, as she didn't experience any pain of sickness. "Meditating for two days? Do you not sleep?" Eivor questioned as she looked over to see her worried eyes. Her hands brushed up against her neck where a wound used t obe and then along her arms and waist. Everything was healed and her eyes looked to the worried one before her. "I'm okay," Eivor tried to promise as she reached her hand up to take Kassandra's and hold it softly. "The wolf is gone for now, and I feel like myself,"

With her help, Eivor sat up carefully, still feeling the heaviness of her bones but it was more stiffness from sleeping so long than pain. "Good, I haven't told anyone," And that in itself was killing her on the inside. She rested her hands on her lap as she could smell the food and swore she could eat the air as it smelled so good.

"I'm here," she assured her, her hand still gently on her shoulder, the other reaching out to feel her forehead to make sure she was not feverish. "Perhaps two days at most. I meditated through a portion of it so I lost track of time for a while." She ran her thumb along Eivor's forehead, just watching her with adoring and worried eyes. The wounds she had dealt were long gone and Eivor looked every bit of the human woman she met on Skye months ago. No sign of the wolf she fought the other night.

"I can imagine." Kassandra had a feeling the drengr would be hungry after all of that. Any time she had woken up from a particularly intense battle the next day she would gorge herself, so Eivor must have been absolutely famished. "Careful now." She had her hands still on Eivor in case she needed steadying. "Not quite, I brought you to the guesthouse. I'm usually not bothered here so I figured it would be the best place for you to recover. Safe in Ravensthorpe without anyone having to question anything."

[wolfkcst]

eivor is so tiny and compacted ya'll tol muses could literally yoink them up

[fanworldbuildingfun]

With it being too hot to tolerate the heat PC gives off while playing games...

Unity has hit a pause

Instead, brain switched to AU mode. So now I am mentally mapping out a version of events wherein Eivor wakes up in the past, memories of all that passed in the future (not including Final Chapter) intact

It's just probally an attempt to go through the disappointment I felt when Eivor was named the Jarl of Ravensthorpe, with no other option. Just a small mental AU wherein Eivor has time to reflect on how stifling being trust into position she did not want was. And to add some more time for reflection, let's just pretend time travel happened just after Sigurd left for his travels to Byzantine Empire, Rome, Africa etc. Maybe dip into potential of who provided Hidden Ones with information on Kjotve?

Maybe a merchant in Stavanger? That would fit (given that it's a coastal location). Mind, I'd have to check if the merchants from Byzantine / Abassid caliphate would have travelled there... But it's always possible someone hitchiked back with the people who travelled from Norway and back? (Do I want to have Eivor pop to the merchant's location with the 'rumors' from time to time because she missess Hytham and his bureau? Maybe)

Ideas, ideas... If only I had a solid idea of where this might go

Eivor, he . . . he needs that hand for work. Eivor, honey . . . please ?

[littlefreya]

Hi Freya! If you have the time, I was wondering if you had any recommendations for some August Walker fics, whether by you or another writer, it doesn’t matter to me. Most of the fics I’m finding recently make him out to be rough, animalistic, and cruel (which makes sense cause he was the villain after all lol). But they also include non-con, degradation, etc, which I’m not comfortable with. Don’t get me wrong! Stories with those elements are fine! It’s just not my cup of tea, personally. And I do like rough August, but I guess it’s more in the sense of him being rough to his enemies and being soft, sweet, and super protective of his sweet and innocent girl. Does that make sense? I’m sorry if it doesn’t, and for the rambling, to this day I still get nervous and panicky whenever I write an ask. 😅 Hope you have a great day! 🥰

Hey love, no need to be nervous about sending an ask. We are all just humans here :) 💖

I have several August stories where August is a pure softy - smut and non smut included.

List below the cut

Smut 🔥🔥🔥

Velvet Chains - Soft!August x Reader (smut. August Walker as a sex-worker, sexual intercourse, unprotected sex, loss of virginity, a depiction of bodily fluids, soft!August themes, a tinge of angst and August’s monster c… ) - For a generous fee, August Walker is yours. A man devout to pleasure, who will worship you for an entire night and make sure your first time is more than memorable. 

Whiskers and Wet Silk - August comes home to find his princess watching Shadow and Bone and simping for the General and gets a bit insecure…

A Perfect Day - August Walker x Reader (smut to heavy fluff. Mentions of oral sex performed on a woman, male masturbation, and bodily fluids.) A perfect day in rural italy with the most dangerous CIA agent on earth. 

Pink Umbrella - August x Reader (Fluff to smut, soft!August Walker, DD/LG, thigh riding, gloves fetish (it’s a thing now), dirty talk, a tint of angst and slight twist ending.) August is on a mission in beautiful Paris and had you join the ride, but while he wants you to stay safe at the hotel, you have other ideas.

Gentle Monsters - August x Reader (smut, vaginal fingering, groping, grinding, cock grabbing, virginity. SoftDom vibes. August is the big bad wolf, but he can be soft for the right woman) It’s your first date with agent Walker, and things get a little too raunchy, but you are not ready to go all the way… 

One more touch before we die August x OFC (Explicit smut, romance) Set in a cabin on the mountain, August and his woman make passionate, desperate love. Sense Challange - Touch

Bourbon and Candy August x OFC (Explicit Smut, size kink, daddy kink) After a frustrating day at work, August just wants to sit down and enjoy his princess, in any way possible.

Poison Honey - August Walker x Reader ( Passion, romance, sexual innuendo, a “thrill of the chase” if this may trigger anyone and mild alcohol use.) Everyone around you is too busy getting drunk and making out, while you are just dying for this dreadful Christmas party to be over. But just as you plan to leave, you catch the eye of a very hungry August Walker.

⌜ @vendettamuses ⌟ ―― E i v o r . & . M o l l ❝ "You're welcome here. It's a standing invitation." ❞

Eivor had always welcomed Moll and her daughter Mebh into her town of Ravensthorpe. The wolf walkers were truly delightful and she felt a kindred bond with them she did not wish to lose. So to be welcomed into their home, for the branches to pull back and the wolves of her pack to look at her as one of their own still amazed the Vikingr. "It's truly an honor, Moll," Eivor said, as Synin sat quietly upon her shoulder, glancing around and yet showing no fear or nerves. The raven's safety and comfort proved the place was no danger and nothing to fear.

"I wanted to see how you and your daughter are doing. It has been quiet without her running around terrorizing the Drengrs," Eivor smirked, amused at the image as she moved over to sit down on the ground next to the red-haired woman. "I hope you are settling well into the area,"

[warpaiint]

It would have indeed, and his paranoia had already reached a state that was difficult to fight again with his mind sickness. She hoped that his path would give him clarity, but she had grown out of his shadow and into the person she was now. There was no regret in her mind for letting herself change and she embraced the person she was now. "I hope that, in the coming years he will find his way and peace again. Perhaps returning to Norway will give him what he needs," Eivor said but paused as she wondered what words might have been spoken. With her wrist free, she moved to rest her hands against Randvi's hips and pulled her closer toward her.

Their lips hovered so closer, leaning in closer as she let the question hang in the air. Was it even a question? One hand lifted from Randvi's hip up toward her neck, cupping her cheek softly as her blue eyes turned to hold her gaze. Then quietly she leaned forward, embracing Randvi's lips as she pulled her close to her. The kiss lingered, as she slowly pulled away and smiled. "Both, you can be both," Eivor whispered as she brushed her thumb against her cheek. "I have loved you for a long time, Randvi, and I still do,"

ADVENTURE IS SO MANY THINGS : roaming wild lands, picking battles. one adventure is always falling in love. that adventure was never there with an arranged marriage. but eivor's friendship? never once forced. natural and built on nothing but love an adventure from the beginning. it really isn't a surprise WHY RANDVI'S FALLING IN LOVE.

" — dating your brother's wife would certainly add to sigurd's previous bout of craziness and paranoia. i am truly glad some of his mind has returned, i remain loyal to this clan, but i could never love him as i should. you ... though ... " randvi doesn't quite finish that, just lets 'i love you' hang in the air. randvi's hands fall away from eivor's wrist, shift to eivor's neck, pull eivor's head in just a breath's away from her own.

" i will always be your friend, no matter what, our friendship will not decline. " a pause, lips right over eivor's. " can i be your lover too? "

Jarlskona’s Mate

An au where Desmond Miles is married off to Eivor Varinsdottir by his father William Miles after he discovered she and her clan were alive again in the modern day. Many do not like the arrangement but see Eivor’s wisdom in agreeing to the arrangement to save an innocent life.

So I was curious to see how you would go about this idea. I know where I want to go but the muse ain't singing right now. The settlement occupants have all their memories from their original lifetime. And they refer to Basim as HIM.

Desmond would have just turned 16 and has that fresh scar.

I mean, you can totally do this in Eivor’s time and make this a flatout political marriage between Eivor under Sigurd’s orders and Desmond, the son of the mentor of what remains of England’s Hidden Ones.

In a modern day setting though, maybe Eivor was living in an isolated community until the Great Purge reached their home. Only a few of them managed to survived and those people are the ones who used to lived in Ravensthrope and that’s the day they start remembering their past lives.

Hytham is the one who suggested they try and find the Hidden Ones because there’s no way the Hidden Ones wouldn’t exist in this time, especially with his theory that Abstergo might be connected to the Order of the Ancient.

They realized that it may be a bit more complicated (or simpler, depending on who they ask) after the attack because they managed to take one alive who spilled the beans that they were attacked because they were connected to the Assassin Brotherhood and that they were Templars. He didn’t even know what the hell the Order of the Ancients is.

Eivor ends up traveling to try and figure more stuff because, if they are connected to the Brotherhood, then there’s a high possibility they would be allies.

This leads her to William Miles who is barely holding it together because the Great Purge is in full swing. Eivor decided to help them because they were better off as allies and Hytham confirmed that there were too many similarities between the Hidden Ones and the Brotherhood for them to be dismissed as a coincidence.

Bill didn’t trust them though since he doesn’t buy into all this Hidden Ones nonsense but an ally was greatly appreciated.

This leads to Eivor teaming up with Bill’s wife and they did not get along at all.

She thinks Eivor is too violent.

Eivor thinks she’s too cold.

Hytham was there to keep the two of them from actually trying to kill one another after every mission.

In the end, they were able to save more than they would have been able to had Eivor and her clan not helped.

An alliance was formed during those darkest of times and the Great Purge died down 3 years after the initial attack.

Everything was still in shambles and, really, the Brotherhood wasn’t in any real position to do anything more than poke at Abstergo.

Eivor’s clan, on the other hand, could turn into a good spec ops team if they were given proper gear and training.

And that’s where a kind of ‘exchange’ happened.

As a promise to help Eivor’s clan with supplies that they could use to fuck Abstergo up, Eivor would be taking on his son as her husband.

Everyone knows that it wasn’t exactly a political marriage or anything.

Desmond Miles was being given as a hostage to show that the Brotherhood wasn’t going to go against their promise.

But the thing is…

Eivor received a letter from Desmond’s mother a day before she was to meet her child groom.

She had been the one to suggest Desmond be given to Eivor because she learned her son was planning to try and escape the Brotherhood.

So he was sent to Ravensthrope to be a hostage…

But Eivor had a feeling this was a compromise his mother made to get him out of the Farm without endangering him.

Well…

She wasn’t exactly thrilled to have a child husband.

She’d talk to him and try to befriend him then go from there.
