oh man I wad gonna make a super cool science / zoology post and I forgot I took an edible and now I can't remember anything
like I can I know what I wanna talk about but I can't think hard enough to explain to people who may not have the background knowledge
like do you know what a phylogenetic tree is? because if you do- THEY RESTRUCTURED AVIAN PHYLOGENY BECAUSE OF WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING
W H O L E. GENOME.
which for birds is over 8.1 BILLION base pairs and they did the ENTIRE GENOME that's coding and non coding that's all the viral history, mitochondrial dna, and all the ancestral history like that's so fucking coooooool but anyways they redid the phylogenetic tree!!!
and we were surprisingly close before this study (which like JUST came out- I'll try to find it when I'm sober) but now we have things like flamingos and pigeons or hawks/owls/eagles being all shifted around- I'll try to explain this later when I can THINK
also guys. I need to stress again how cool the WHOLE genome sequencing thing is especially in birds!!!
birds are ANCIENT much older than mammals I mean they're reptiles after all but with that comes like a fuck ton of genomic data
majority of these strands are "non coding" which means they just kinda exist and don't do any work but this is also composed of your genomic HISTORY which means it has your viral data
viruses inject their DNA sequences into your chromosomes and then they get replicated by asexual reproduction and those slow gradual injections of these viruses over time will change the phenotypic traits- that's what evolution is! (kinda- don't forget that babies also combine new DNA together so then you have mom/dad and their viral history allllllll mixing together- kinda?? man idk)
do you catch what I'm throwing here??? this shows the history of all viruses since the age of birds!!! (kinda... sorta? don't think about it too hard- I'm not! I can't think)
jeez I got off topic.... but the point is (I think) that they have 8.1 billion base pairs in a modern bird wanna know how many a human has? a human who can be like 100x the size of one of those little bitty bir-
guys, we have 3 billion.
THREE
and birds have 8.1!!!!
science is cool- don't do drugs kids
peace
-xoxo,
rob dog <3

I’m sorry but
Certain bloodlines directly descended from the hybrids, however, possessed fractionally higher levels of Isu DNA in their genome, resting somewhere between the 0.0002% to 0.0005% of normal humans and the 5 or 6% of Sages,[5] which allowed their scions to naturally access Eagle Vision and to more fully interact with Pieces of Eden much like their ancestors.
I am having a bit too much of a cackle here. It’s just this side of schadenfreude. Does this mean that in the end, Hidden Ones/Assassins were the ones who had and have this ability to spot and “loot” people with the highest level of Isu genetics?
The very same Isu who basically created humans as slave race?
And now, those who are the “closest” to them, genetically, are the ones who are working to ensure the humanity’s ability to exercise free will?
Oh, how the tables have turned now
But no, seriously. Is this some kind of a group thing? Does like call to like here, after all? How do Assassins keep more or less consistently finding people who can activate Eagle vision, but the Templars can’t do it - unless they, literally, steal them from Assassins?

Have you ever considered - Desmond survives and gets to be(mentally) transported in time to some Isu temple. Except the eye doesn't have human genome templates, only Isu (thanks, Juno). New body is made wholly based on the Isu part of Desmond's genome. How hard would it be for Desmond to hide in plain sight, being at least a head taller than anyone around him?
Oh god. I read this and the brain immediately went "HEY LISTEN" so have this longass answer hahaha. Off the top of my head, I can think of three main ideas that incorporate this plot.
1 Desmond gets traveled back in time in an Isu body during the rise of the Isu civilization (or maybe even before the time 'everyone is scrambling to try not die from the sun, the prequel')
In this setup, I think Desmond's main problem would be trying to pretend that he's an actual Isu so that the other Isus won't think he's some kind of experiment gone rogue. He'll also be alone without any allies (Desmond would even be suspicious of Minerva because of how she acted in the Grand Temple and he only heard Tinia once so he doesn't know who Tinia is as a person). In this kind of plot, I think it would be fun for Desmond to be in the following scenarios:
Desmond accidentally helps Eve revolt and help the humans (... what if he was Adam??? Nah, it won't work. For one, Adam is a human and this plot gives Desmond an Isu body). Oh, oh, oh. What if Desmond (as an Isu) is the one to give Eve the Apple of Eden and this gets translated as him as the snake/devil giving Eve the apple hahahaha
Have some kind of tense alliance with Aletheia in her time as the Dikastes of Atlantis (maybe his body is one of Juno and Aita's secret pet projects)
Get in the middle of a war between the Asgardian Isus and the other Isus. Just imagine him awkwardly trying not to listen to Minerva and Odin having sex when all he wanted to do was check if there's any Isu bs that can help him in this supposed vault or whatever, why are they even having sex here, come on! Then Odin catches sight of him when he's trying to find the mead, maybe Desmond grabs the mead before he does because it's glowing hella gold in his Eagle Vision and Desmond sees shiny and thinks 'shiny? important? shiny!' and now Odin is chasing him all over the nine realms while Desmond just wants to find a way back to his goddamn time
2 Desmond gets traveled back in time in an Isu body before the 21st century
Alright, this spans all the (main) games' non-modern day plot but here's some of the key points I can think of:
In general, religious people might see him as either a god or a divine being sent by god (since Isu tend to wear glowing outfits). His height might even count him as a nephilim instead as they're usually described as giants with great power. This would get him in trouble or might get him out of trouble if he can, you know, pretend to act godly and stuff (it's Desmond though so my bet is awkward 'fear not for thou, uh, hast, uuuhhh...'). The idea that he's god would most definitely be the case for the three mcs of the Layla Trilogy and maybe even Ezio (but, let's be honest, Ezio is a special case).
Honestly, I think he has the best chance of hiding and figuring shit out with Bayek because Bayek would see him and go 'oh, he's in trouble. as a medjay and a good person, I will help him.' while the misthios (Kassandra or Alexios) would be like "A god! Or a demi-god! Must be one of Zeus' children, poor boy. Come! Join my crew and let's fuck shit up!" and Eivor would be more of "You must be a Jotun... Our clan is open to all! Even a Jotun like you. How do you feel about burning churches?"
Kicking him to the time of the Third Crusades will be hilarious. On one hand, the Templars definitely want him because holy shit (and I can just imagine Maria actually pledging to be his knight because she absolutely believes that Desmond is a divine being, if not her god then one of his divine messengers), the Assassins want him because also holy shit (and it would be funny if one of those who truly believe Desmond is some kind of god is Abbas, just the awkwardness and blatant hostility turning to confusion and mild annoyance in the same vein of 'please stop talking, abbas' 'of course, my lord' will be priceless) and the people who are left being 'sus, absolutely sus' are probably going to be Altaïr (who is an atheist in canon) and Malik (who saw the power of the POE in canon and went 'yeah, sounds like tech we don't understand yet') so they have this awkward possibly powerful being trying to hide behind the two of them because Desmond saw them not looking at him with any reverence and went 'yes, these two. These two will protect me while I have my silent freakout' but that only makes everyone believe that Altaïr and Malik have been chosen by 'god' and now Malik, being the more 'cordial' of the two (and the last time Altaïr spoke for them, he sounded so arrogant and full of himself (this is set before the start of AC1) that they could see the metaphorical pitchforks getting ready) have to speak for Desmond because it's clear that Desmond has no idea what to do and is freaking out but pretending not to be. This, in turn, makes Malik the unofficial spokesperson (prophet) of Desmond while Altaïr gets called his knight when all he's trying to do is keep Desmond from running away and building a fucking grape farm of all things (Desmond wasn't serious, he was rambling, but Altaïr didn't know that). Kadar (hell yeah, he lives) gets roped in as well and he actually believes all this Desmond-is-god crap so now Desmond has a very enthusiastic 'butler/acolyte' on top of everything.
Renaissance period depends on when Desmond gets kicked out of his timeline. If he gets kicked out before Ezio heard Minerva's message, Ezio would probably look at him with suspicion and maybe even be a bit hostile with him considering he's still hurting and wishing for revenge. If it was after Minerva's message (Brotherhood), Ezio would definitely help him, maybe try to learn from him, and may even think of him as an actual divine being because of his religious background which makes Desmond feel awkward and creates some kind of wall between the two of them. Desmond just wants to help Ezio and be treated normally (or as equals) but Ezio can't help but see Desmond as some kind of god or angel that has been sent to help them in exchange for his loyalty and servitude. (Insert angst here with bonus points for religious themes and imagery that will send my soul deeper to hell) Revelations-timeline Ezio already has enough and wants out. He would see Desmond as someone in a similar position as him and they'll have a peaceful life tending a countryside farm with Sofia and their children because THESE TWO DESERVE PEACE.
I think Haytham and the other characters during Rogue would look at Desmond and think 'holy shit, Isu' and try to capture him. Both Templars and Assassins want to capture him because he's some stranger who may or may not be an Isu and that means knowledge and power that the other organization should not have. The Templars would definitely send Shay (if this is after Lisbon) while the Assassins would send Liam or maybe Adéwalé or Kesegowaase. Desmond is sus of both of them because Templars are Templars in his eyes and he saw how Hope's Assassins are pretty much governing the criminal underworld of New York which is pretty bad, all things considered, so he's iffy about going to the Assassins. So who does he turn to? Ziio. Ziio with baby Ratonhnhaké:ton and fuck whatever is happening to him and what this means in the timeline, he's gonna hide in Ziio's village forever and be Ratonhnhaké:ton's favorite uncle. You don't have to hide in plain sight if you're staying in a village that thinks you're some kind of spirit or something and that's cool. So while the Assassins and Templars are scrambling to find him, he's just chilling and babysitting for Ziio. By the time they find him in Ziio's village, Ratonhnhaké:ton is old enough to think Desmond is his dad (but he's BFF with Ziio, not in a romantic relationship) so Haytham has to deal with a bad breakup, a son he didn't even know existed and a powerful being who may or may not have adopted his son.
Desmond would have a stressful time in the Carribeans, dodging pirates and everybody else. And he can't find any Assassins for some reason so he tries to take a breather by chilling on some uninhabited island. Cue Captain Edward Kenway who was just there because it was on some weird old map he found and he sees his big dude and thought "sure, let's make him part of our crew" while Desmond agrees because he has a hidden blade so he might be an Assassin (he's not) and his name is Kenway so he might be Ratonhnhaké:ton's grandpa (he is) and Desmond needs a break. Chilling with pirates sounds like fun (it's not)
I think Desmond would spend most of his time during the French Revolution trying to find a way to America because that's where Ratonhnhaké:ton is and he believes Ratonhnhaké:ton will believe him (at the very least, won't turn him away anyway) but he'll get roped into this because something inside him is telling him there's someone in Paris that is bad juju. His Isu body is reacting to Aita's Sage and it's giving him some kind of annoying headache. Before he knows what's happening, he's secretly helping an Assassin who reminds him of Ezio and forms some kind of alliance with him. He has no knowledge of the French Revolution other than the Liam Neeson movie (not the musical because, according to wiki, that released on Dec 25 2012 in the US and our boy is already dead by then) so good luck?
Victorian England, on the other hand, would have Desmond barging in on the train that the Frye twins commandeered because 'it's a train... if you wanted to be inconspicuous, you'd pick the sewers, not a train'. His height would leave him... well, pretty much benched unless it's nighttime and he stays on the roofs so he gets to help Greenie with research (and miss Shaun) and maybe awkward shuffle away when Evie and Henry start having a moment. He does help out during nighttime missions AND BECOMES ONE OF CHARLES DICKIN'S GHOST CLUB MISSION because people saw him and think 'holy shit, ghost!' and now Evie and Jacob have to pretend not to know that the ghost Charles Dickins wants them to find/debunk is actually some chill dude who likes going out at night to stretch his legs. (Jacob brings Desmond the dog to the train and introduces him to Desmond, Desmond is not amused, Jacob thinks it's the best joke he's made in a while, Desmond the dog thinks Desmond the Isu gives the best belly rubs)
3 Desmond gets traveled back in time in an Isu body during the 21st century (or farther than that)
For this one, I can think of two main plotlines
This one is connected to my previous idea of Elijah overriding Juno's new body and transferring Desmond's data into it. Cue awkward father-son bonding between the two as they try to escape Juno's lackeys with Charlotte and the other Assassins and Desmond is awkward around them because he doesn't know anyone (he's been isolated to the other Assassins since he got his own 'cell') and Elijah doesn't trust anyone at all. Their main problem now is trying to contact any of the other Assassins to help them escape while trying to escape from both Juno's lackeys and Abstergo who has now heard of Desmond's 'resurrection'.
This other plotline is kinda meh but you can throw Desmond farther into the future and have him get a more stable Abstergo-created Isu body during the timeline of Watch_Dog Legion. While the developers insist that Darcy (who is a descendant of the Fryes) isn't canon, fuck canon, have Desmond deal with the horrors of a dystopian future where his height will be a fucking red flag. He's stuck in London, allies himself with Darcy and Dedsec in a 'you scratch my back, i scratch yours' setup where he helps them out and they help him try and contact an Assassin he actually knows (like maybe Shaun or Rebecca).
In both of these plotlines, Desmond can easily blend in by using one thing: wheelchairs. While he's overall larger than normal humans, wheelchairs will make that less 'visible'... heightwise anyway
....... I just realize that I made plots instead of answering how Desmond could hide while using an Isu body... ooops?

Sculpting part whatever
I watched Avatar and snorted some Wayne Barlowe designs. I’m ready to come back!  
I added average man to keep tabs on proportions, assuming natural protoamygdalines were roughly human sized. I really tried not to make a dinosaur, but screw this, we are making a space raptor! Multiple characters already describe amygdalines as such, and let’s be honest it’s superior body plan for bipedal vertebrate (analogue) .  
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm happy with feet. I'm leaving "eagle talons designed by Steve Jobs" for post-natural amygdalines, and now I’m content with more organic form. 
Tumblr media
It really looks like those feet could leave bird like footprints. 
I got inspired by Bayformers’ Starscream. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Still fighting with shoulder girdle. So I thought, why not shove it into the chest? I’m ok with the funky look. With a little "fleshing out" it should be good. I have to do something with hands though. Maybe I should ditch the extra wrist and make fingers just extra long...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm still not married to the vertebra design. This doesn’t look like hammers on piano. 
While making it, I started headcanoning tail as gonads. It makes sense. Sterile postnatural amygdalines don’t have it, but Genome has, as do transients and both are capable of procreation.
Tumblr media
So after insemination, female would just drop part of the tail like a tapeworm and each segment would grow into a spine of a new nymph. Young protoamigdalines from one tail would form birth phyle, but then later disperse to find adult phyles, because they would be maternal siblings (I can’t see protoamigdalines as being monogamous in any way).

“NEANDERTHALS WERE HIGH TECH AND LIKED THEIR FINERY. Recent discoveries have dramatically narrowed the formerly-perceived chasm in technological abilities and cultural accomplishments between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. For instance, Neanderthals used complex techniques to manufacture strong hafting glues from birch tar (Mazza et al. 2006). They made three-ply cord (Hardy et al. 2020). They probably used chemical accelerants to help start fires (Heyes et al. 2016). They burned coal (Dibble et al. 2009). Neanderthals had medicines that likely included naturally occurring aspirin and penicillin substances (Weyrich et al. 2017). Whether for fashion, camouflage or other reasons, they used at least seven different minerals (graphite, buserite (MnO2), hematite, goethite, limestone, chalk and pyrite for the black, red, yellow, white, and sparkling gold colors (Sykes, 2020). They also used charcoal and feathers (preferring black colors). Toolmarked and polished eagle claws found in Croatia that date to 130,000 years are the oldest evidence of jewelry in Europe (Radovcic et al. (2015). Neanderthals also wore seashells stained with hematite (Srsen et al. 2015). They made complex cave art and may have made flutes. They had burials and ceremonial sites (it's hard to explain the 174K-year-old Bruniquel site any other way). It's ever-clearer that the "chasm" has narrowed to perhaps a small stepover.”

The Löwenmensch figurine – a toy or a religious treasure
Yet another version of the image, slightly different from the ones I posted on Twitter and Instagram. Inspired by the around 40k years old iconic Löwenmensch sculpture of the Hohlenstein-Stadel in Germany.
Too often the role children had in ancient societies has been unnecessarily neglected, according to a growing number of researchers. As a result many objects that could very well have been made for children, and even by children, have been interpreted to be religious objects, created to be worshipped in order to gain good luck and prosperity. Both alternatives are plausible – it can be hard to tell the diferrence. In a way it's perhaps possible that they sometimes were both.
In ancient, and not necessarily that ancient, cultures, things were not just things, they had a meaning and a function beyond their physical appearance and form. Perhaps children's toys were not just for fun but they were also portals to an unvisible world, allowing a contact with the ancestors or mythical creatures that could offer protection and guidance.
And even today, a daydreaming child acquires the unnatural powers of the precious superhero collectible, offering a moment of relief from the challenging reality.
If you wish, you can also follow me on Twitter and Instagram, for different versions of the images, news and background stories.

Here's a fun little detail about the color coding of Vistamps
Typically Vistamps with pink tops and bases denote that they're variants of other Vistamps, and the riders they're based on follow that. For example, the Condor Vistamp is a variant of the Eagle Vistamp, and Condor is based on Kamen Rider Joker while Eagle is Kamen Rider W. And the White Leo variant is based on Kuuga's Amazing Mighty form while the original Lion stamp is based on Kuuga normally.
Destream's Vistamp is a personal stamp, so it's based on Destream and not a previous rider, but it has the pink coloration because he's a variant of Kamen Rider Vail.
Note. There's a reason why Over Demons, a variant of Demons, does not have a pink Vistamp. Because Over Demons was never meant to be a separate Rider and instead was just supposed to be Demons Kuwagata Genome (the writers grew to regret the name of Over Demons and the decision to make him a separate Rider, but it was too late)

So we all decided that a person's eyes turn gold when they use Eagle Vision. In DC the process of turning a human into a Talon turns their eyes gold. What if the Court of Owls steals or clones the bodies of dead assassins and turns them into their Talons? There are so many possibilities for a modern day AU with Ezio or someone else breaking their programing and rebuilding the Brotherhood in Gotham.
I admit I had to do a bit of googling to see who The Court of Owls are. Alas, I am not well versed in DC…
However, even from Wiki pages – they seem, a lot, like a shoe-on for a version of Cult of Kosmos or Order of Ancients. Masks, comprising of elites, and dabbing in things that are more on occult side than usual
If you want to include Assassins (or potential Assassins) as Talons, I think we can dabble into “Worshippers of the Bloodline” branch of Kosmos to set everything up
See, even with the reform of Templar Order, there is always a chance that someone would find information on its predecessors. And once they did, they may have found it more appealing than the current state of the Order. And thus… Given that Templars tended to seek their members around people of note/means… Let’s assume it was one of the Templars families that founded Gotham that did it. Fond information about the Isu-blooded humans, found the ideas Kosmos had for them
And then, they decided to use the information. Slowly but steadily finding allies, breaking away from the Templars, and, eventually – founding themselves their Court. And once they gathered the means to search for the Isu-blooded? They did so. And eventually… They found a way to make use of them
Perhaps it was, as in case with Alexious, manipulation
Perhaps it was a piece of Eden
Whichever it was – the Court of Owls managed to induce awakening of Eagle Vision among the Isu-blooded they found. And then they found a means of controlling them. And thus, the Talons came to be. With them, finding new “recruits” became easier – like called to like, after all. It worked that way with Assassins, too, after all
It was more than Templars ever managed – and thus, it solidified the Courts’ belief they were in the right
Eventually, unaccounted-for Isu descendants started to dwindle. Either the bloodline thinned out to the point it was no longer “special”, or it was destroyed by Templars, or picked up by Assassins. And so… The Court had to find another way to replenish their “army”
First came attempts to poach from the other groups. But in that, the Court did not have nearly the same reach as the other organizations did. Then came cultivating of bloodlines – but it was too much of a game of chance
And then, Templars founded Abstergo
And the Court found a reason to reach out to their long-disconnected “sister” branch of Order, again
In their view, Abstergo lacked the vision
Of course, they knew of the war against Assassins. And of course, Abstergo was willing to put work into developing tech that would allow them to make use of pieces of Eden
But it would be a long time, before Abstergo realized that they could also make use of the Assassins they… Did away with
The Court invests into Abstergo. They insure the branches of Abstergo that dealt with DNA research, had sizeable labs in Gotham. They provided them with freedom of action – and, in return, the Court… Got the means to replenish the ranks of their Talons
By recreating those that they, historically, knew had the genes they so dearly sought
The Court made use of and improved Abstergo’s cloning tech long before Abstergo thought to do it
All they needed… Was a piece bearing the mostly-intact genome of the one they wished to copy
Not everyone they wanted to get, they could. They had access to less known Assassins. The court even managed to access the remains of some of the more known ones – Ezio Auditore da Firenze. Edward Kenway. Jacob Frye. If there was even a shred of information on when they were buried – the Court did not shy from getting some black archeologists in their pocket
It took more time to raise a clone than to find and… Persuade, an adult. But it also meant that they could ensure their loyalty much better than any other method
And it worked. Until the Solar Flare
(….It got long XD)
Loose thoughts:
The early Talons were less effective because Court’s way of awakening their abilities relied too much on the method of control. Renegades were not uncommon. Deaths were not uncommon
 By the time Abstergo catches on onto the fact they were used, the Court is perfectly capable of cloning without their support
The “divorce” in this alliance of convenience is messy and loud
There are only so many DNA samples the Court gets its hands on: for example, they never managed to access remains of Altaїr, or Ratonhnhaké:ton, or Amunet, or Bayek. If the location of their remains was not known, they were not accessible to the Owls
When the Solar Flare happens, the item they used to awaken the Eagle Vision in Talons… Malfunctions
After that, the Talons that were part of the cloning program start to act oddly. It doesn’t take long for them to disappear with no viable evidence as to where
