People in the comments of the Assassin's Creed: Shadows trailer becoming armchair historians trying to explain why Yasuke shouldn't be a protagonist actually are hilarious. Like besties this is a franchise where people can control eagles with their minds and a good 5% of the population are descended from evil psychic aliens. I THINK we can expand on a story of Japan's only-recorded African koshō without it jumping the shark.
the picture hjune tweeted under his appreciation post got me thinking about r!foolish and his failed musician lore 😭
like foolish was meant to be a musician, an artist that created with song, but was forced to be a warrior and a king at a far too young age
because of that though, he led a kingdom where his warriors were allowed the freedom he never got as a child
they were allowed to be artists, jesters, leaders, whatever they desired to be while foolish kept his role as king until he knew he was no longer needed and peace was finally obtained
Rusty Bones truly was a kingdom that thrived way more than people expected
For those of you who've known me long enough you are aware that I want the orange side to be a gamer. I have many thoughts about that but this is not the rant post for that. I want to bring up the idea of his logo being a broke NES controller to symbolize the loss of control when you're influenced by anger. I also believe the "dark sides" are more than they initially seem so I want the controller to be split in half and hanging by it's cords and wires so it also gives the illusion of the scales of justice because I think C!Thomas' biggest reason for anger is going to be because of perceived injustices (we've already seen that and again that is a much longer post).
If decarabian was a gamer he would have the most decked out setup imaginable. 2000+ dollar custom keyboard where nearly everything but the internal components are made of solid gold. Top-of-the-line pc entirely encased in various ornately decorated gemstones. He would have at least five monitors (bonus points if they also double as surveillance monitors.) His gaming chair would in fact be a literal throne. At times he thinks that video game logic must surely apply to real life mortal human logic as well and vastly overestimates how durable most humans are.
