#good animu

[theconfusedartist]

y'know something that annoys me about assassins creed?

they always make it seem like desmond wasted his life away after he left the farm to become a bartender, that he wasn't fit to be an assassin until he was training in the animus, and that he didn't have any ambition (as said by William in the AC3 remastered opening)

but like. none of that is true. at all

I mean I was just looking at the wiki to see Desmonds accomplishments and bio and apparently it was Daniel Cross that brought him into Abstergo. which. kinda puts Desmond skills in perspective

Daniel Cross was considered the most successful Templar member and, before Desmond, had a really great track record with his missions. Save for the ones that involved PoEs

they had to send him in to get Desmond

also Desmond managed to stay hidden from the assassins AND templars for 9 going on 10 years, since he was kidnapped on like August 30 brought in for the animus September 1, and the only reason he got taken in was due to them getting his fingerprints from the DMV

like. That sounds stupid but think about it. If he was going to the DMV he had to have an entire false identity in order to use a license, bc you need proof of birth, SSN, and multiple legal documents

he just. had that made on the run. Like that actually takes skill or connections or both to be able to effectively be in the system without being found with fake legal papers

And he DID have ambition: he wanted to live normally. Yeah its not some big dream or anything but he managed to stay hidden from two secret shadowy organizations that is all over the world in order to make it happen. that's determination and he only got caught due to his fingerprints being matched

and he easily fights off the abstergo agents in the opening of the first game. I'm not saying that Desmond was near as good as Ezio or Altaïr or Connor at this point, but he can clearly defend himself very well. at the end of AC2 he has no qualms with killing, he just does so with the hidden blade.

look, all I'm saying is, at the very least Desmond had to he quite skilled even before he started using the animus

Sees your ratatouille style au

One time Desmond gets mad enough at Haytham that he tells him that at least he knew how to get into the temple unlike some people. (Ps I just played the mission where you’re on the Aquila and Haytham is worse then a backseat driver and I really wish we could have thrown him overboard at the end, as a treat.)

The Ratatouille Style AU where Desmond is bad at controlling his ancestors like us

(Haytham is working double time because he missed out on being a backseat driver and a lot of ‘you disappoint me, son’ moments for the past 21 years)

And Desmond is on a roll.

He’s hit one of Haytham’s sore spots but he also knows he just gave Haytham a clue that the temple can be opened so he needs to divert Haytham’s attention quickly.

This means Desmond does the first thing he could think of…

“Hey, Haytham…” Desmond grins, “Wanna see a ship twirl?”

And what happens next is a few precious moments of absolute chaos and screaming as the Aquila does a sick 360.

She could feel the blood still oozing from the wound in her throat, and she reached up to try to stem the flow with shaky fingers. There was angry snarling nearby, but she felt too far away to make out the words. She heard rapid footsteps and someone kneeling by her. “Don’t worry, we have you,” a voice had said.

Me: I ship (Zutara, Lotura, Darklina)

What you think I mean: I’m horny for the hot villain/anti-hero and project onto the pretty main girl.

What I really mean: I’m an English Literature major, bitch.

maybe this is weird (and I do promise I’m dropping the rest of the lore in a hour or so) but

in the rewrite, i always write Altaïr as seeing Desmond as:

Altaïr: this is my little brother, my son, my best friend, and annoying twin that makes all the reckless mistakes i already learned from. i love my boy, but damn if he doesn’t be doing some wild shit

wereas Desmond is like

Desmond: i love Altaïr! he’s my brother, my best friend, one of the few people who I’d happily consider my father, my face twin, and (did I already mention?) best friend! he makes a lot of mistakes, and we disagree about lots of stuff, but i’m so happy he’s in my life

Altaïr in permutation 17: this sucks. Des isn’t even here right now (hist time) and he can’t even hear me when I’m trying to talk to him (in modern time)

Desmond in permutation 17: this sucks. Altaïr isn’t even here right now (modern time) and I’m so fucking lonely !! !! !! now I’ve gotta die to turn on the eye and then what?! no one is coming back for me!! I don’t even know where Alex is, I’m just praying that I’ll survive after dying to get Elijah and keep him safe, but this shit sucks!

something somethng ghost au where orca haunted turtle..she died before he was born But her animus powers wwre only foundnout when he was around 5(?) or so. not only would he have learned about the horrible horrible consequences of magic via albatross but YIPEE your sister u also never met has been killing members of her own tribe after death to traumatize her family shes bitter at

which would cause a funny silly paralell to darkstalker haunting moon. me thinks. "my powers are a terrible thing i have to hide them" "You pathetic animal. ❤️ you can do Great things with your abilities, you were destined for Greatness like i was"

[pennamepersona]

everyone who says that magnus called it the time cup and lucretia retconned calling it the temporal chalice is 100% correct

but lemme raise you: she retconned the Gaia sash too. merle called it the Onionfucker 9000
