Oh! Dear Goddess of this beautiful temple of teecups, your faithful servant begs for help. The rivers have dried up, the foot is not satiating completely and I can only ask for your blessing in... Desmond with Umar... that's it. I just cannot stop thinking about Desmond being with Umar and giving zero f*cks about Al Mualim. Also i just want to give you all of my kudos for your fics. Every new chapter always makes my day <3

Oh, my faithful enduring servant, my temple had to change location due to… god-related circumstances… as such, I have heard your prayers yet I have not been able to grant small blessings as my temple had taken quite a long journey to its new location.

My temple is still preparing the weekly wares to be peddled to the archives and thus, it seems that we will be unable to peddle our wares this week but, fear not, my faithful servants! For the festival this Saturday shall still commence!

Also, my temple is now ready to take in all kinds of travelers and journeymen!

First, I have answered an ask that ended up having UmaDes and UmaFahDes because that’s usually how we roll in this blog

So, since that ask above covers Desmond becoming Umar’s beau after Maud’s death, we’ll make an idea of Desmond being Umar’s beau before Umar met Maud.

The usual setup: Desmond gets transported into the past BUT this time Umar is the one to find him and Desmond freezes because he looks a bit like Altaïr but not really him?

Like, Desmond knows it’s not Altaïr but he also knows he knows who this man is supposed to be.

Anyway, Desmond realized who he is after he introduced himself as Umar, son of no one, and Desmond follows him to see the mentor because Umar saw him freerunning the rooftops of Acre (he was trying to understand why Acre looks a bit too different) and he thinks Desmond would make a great Assassin.

Desmond is surprised because Umar doesn’t take him to Masyaf.

No.

He takes him to Alamut.

Because the mentor he was about to meet was Ḥasan ʿAlā Zikrihi's-Salām, the mentor who ordered Rashid to go to Masyaf and create a branch of the Brotherhood to oversee Levant.

Desmond had traveled to 1160.

2 years before Al Mualim would travel to Masyaf and create the Levantine Brotherhood.

Unorganized Notes:

My headcanon is that Umar is in his mid-twenties when he had Altaïr because Altaïr is the youngest Assassin to be granted the rank of Master at the age of 24~25 but Umar was a Master Assassin when Altaïr was growing up ergo, Umar should at least be in his mid-twenties (and not yet a Master Assassin) when Altaïr was born.

Because of this, Umar had to be one of the Assassins trained in Alamut and went with Al Mualim to Masyaf.

Desmond impresses the current mentor that he becomes an Assassin in less than a year. At that point, Desmond is just thinking of undermining Al Mualim’s authority so he doesn’t become, well, Al Mualim when they get to Masyaf.

Unfortunately, the current mentor is more or less at odds with Al Mualim at this point. The Assassins in Alamut are thrown between being loyal to Al Mualim or to the mentor and Desmond could see why Al Mualim had been ordered to travel to Masyaf. The mentor was trying to stop an already brewing discord between the two factions that would most definitely end with a civil war to take the mentor title by force.

And Desmond gets pulled into this by becoming the mentor’s new favorite, effectively setting him to side with the mentor’s faction.

It doesn’t help that any interactions with Al Mualim (Rashid, his name is Rashi, Desmond, he’s not yet Al Mualim) are very… awkward. Rashid is trying to gain his trust, Desmond distrusts him from the get-go and yeah…

He and Umar do get along quite well. Too well, some might say. Really, close friends bordering on cross-starred lovers kind of scenario at this point.

Of course, an Al-Sayf must always suffer so Faheem as to watch these two idiots pretend to simply be friends and miss the mark by a kilometer and land square on actually in love, no doubt about it, we don’t wanna talk about it.

Desmond is unable to stop Rashid from being ordered to take Masyaf and he ignores the mentor’s orders to stay in Alamut, joining them instead.

Rashid was actually thinking that Desmond is a spy then… he hears the mentor and Desmond arguing that Desmond should remain in Alamut and he just thinks “Oh. He’s coming because of love.”

Cue Rashid trying to be supportive of what he believes to be Desmond’s grand romantic gesture. Desmond has no clue what he’s talking about. Rashid believes Desmond is pretending not to understand because it is the greatest open secret in all of Alamut. Desmond absolutely has no idea what Rashid is talking about.

They get to Masyaf, Desmond intentionally starts to become Rashid’s devil’s advocate that keeps him in check by questioning his every move and, Desmond didn’t plan it, but he became Rashid’s second-in-command… He’s just… “What. The. Fuck.”

During this time, Desmond and Umar do finally start a relationship. Faheem (who is part of the council so Desmond talks to him a lot) just stares at Desmond, thinking if he should tell the man that he’d been in a relationship with Umar for years now then decided that conversation would just give him a headache so no)

By the time, 1191 rolls in, Altaïr Ibn-Umar is born from a very supportive (like, Desmond is pretty sure she’s the one writing all those… can he call them fanfics? Did she just unintentionally create fanfics in 12th century Levant???) Maud as their surrogate because Desmond reaaaalllllllyy wants a child (he doesn’t necessarily? He just needs to make sure Altaïr is born? Who is he kidding? He wants to spoil Altaïr rotten) and she doesn’t die because Desmond managed to make Rashid believe that the health of his people is very, very important.

Oh. Masyaf still separates from Alamut because the mentor there is a bit of a dick but they have a more amicable relationship because people in Alamut still loves Desmond.

Just watched one of my favourite TNG episodes ever—Darmok—and I got to thinking. They basically speak in memes.

Tumblruser Darmok-n-Jilad-on-the-ocean: *sigh* Temba. His arms wide.

Tumblruser Pickard-his-palm-on-his-face: Queen Elizabeth of England! Grant Gustin at Oliver Queen’s Grave dot jpeg!!

Tabula Rasa aired for BTVS season 6, episode 8. Due to magic, the gang loses their memories, forgetting who they are. Hi-jinks include new assumed relationships, frightening bunnies, a literal loan shark, and incorrect names, such as Umad (Dawn), Joan (Buffy), and Randy (Spike).

After the hilarity, Michelle Branch sings "Goodbye to You." This is Michelle Branch's only appearance.

[furryprovocateur]

the thing about "umad" as an argument is that it's basically unbeatable. there's very few situations where you don't just automatically win if you're the first person to say "umad". it immediately puts your opponent on the defense and the rest of the argument because either character assassination (they are mad) or a futile effort to rebound (trying to prove they are not mad)
