Theres A Number Of Reasons Why In All Of AC, Bill Miles Is That One Character That Legit Makes Me Angry,

There’s a number of reasons why in all of AC, Bill Miles is that one character that legit makes me angry, but there’re specific two instances, that both have to do with Desmond and both make me go “How THICK can you get, man?!”

One - the way Bill somehow failed explaining the meaning of the Creed to Desmond. The Creed is supposed to be the center of all that an Assassin is, the pillar, holding the entire mindset up. And yet Desmond’s memories in ACR show that Bill just kinda kept repeating the Creed to him, with no further explanation as to what it means. And, as karma would have it, Bill wanted Desmond to live by the Creed and empower himself? Well, he did just that - to an extent he understood the Creed. On that note - does Bill himself understand the meaning of the Creed, or is it just a phrase to him?

Two - the Daniel Cross situation, or, rather, the effect the Great Purge should have had on Desmond.

So, the Great Purge was a result of Templars’ long game of infiltrating the Brotherhood worldwide, learning where the compounds are, and eradicating them, along with killing the Mentor himself. In the end, only a few settlements, never visited by Cross, remained.

As of ACIII, we learn that Desmond knew nothing of Daniel Cross, the Purge, and what went down that year. Nothing. And that shit happened in late 2000, so Desmond was 13, almost 14. Now, please explain to me WHY wouldn’t you tell a teenager about such a tragedy? What is the point of keeping him in the dark, especially considering the training you’re putting him through? Preserving his innocence? Bitch please, what innocence is there, you’re teaching him how to kill! This is bloody WAR, you’ve already made him into a soldier, why are you denying him basic knowledge that might, I dunno, save his life if he ever encounters Cross?  Not to mention that this might have been the 180-turn Desmond needed to understand the gravity of the situation and stay, but hey, any bloody proof could be that.

Actually, I could rant for hours why the way they’ve trained Desmond wasn’t bloody logical, but let’s leave it at that for now. 

love thinking about callahan as a silly forest spirit that just sticks around for fun. he bodyguards for some demon pretending to be a catgirl and lets her call him a dog because why not. sometimes he becomes mortal and participates in war and doesnt even always win because why not. he gets bitches. he only talks through chat. he was one of the first members and made a dirt house but it has jack shit in it because he doesng care. hes the squire.

he was XD's former pet and seems scared of him. he seems to have stopped being on dreams side during doomsday and helped save clingyduo during the disc finale. theres so many little things hes done whether for fun or out of genuine care. he probably is just a full out god. he helps with the weather. love this guy

Headcanons of Desmond's life on the run? :)

Demond's Life on the Run

Sorry this took so long, I have been immensely busy. Anyways, here's Demond thoughts.

Most assassins have to grow up immensely fast. It just comes with the territory, y'know?

However, when Desmond decided that enough was enough, he made the decision to run off and pursue his own happiness and dreams.

He grew up IMMENSELY fast.

Honestly having the skills of an assassin at such a young age really helped him lmfao. Those really came in handy.

He was honestly,,,, a little shady,,,,,,,,,

I think he already had traits of his ancestors in his habits. Ezio's charm, Altair.... Altair. Edward's wit, Haytham's class (even though it was really, really shoddy class lmfao), and Connor's strength.

Ofc, we know that he hitchhiked for a while before finally getting referenced to NY.

He met some wild people, had a lot of good life experience. Honestly, I think Desmond kinda liked being a vagabond.

Desmond learned so much about the world outside of assassin and Templar business by traveling with other people. Those are some precious stories he'll never forget.

He thinks the badlands are beautiful, no, I am not taking any questions. There are days he'd spend the mornings just gazing out at the scenery, see some tumble weeds, listen to the breeze and feel at ease.

After being recommended to NY, nothing was really the same for him. It excited him, and next thing he knew, he was there.

The lights of the city at night are some of the most beautiful sights in his opinion.

Again, this boy was shady as all hell. He had to do some interesting things to survive. Steal, different identities, not keep one singular backstory, it was a tad mentally taxing for him!

Yes, he did miss his family and friends.

Anyways, Demons was a handsome guy growing up. It's why he got hired at Bad Weather, or at least why he thinks he was hired.

Desmond was surprisingly a natural at bar tending.

He liked to experiment with different types of drinks before finally making his signature "Shirley Templar".

I think Desmond is a natural social butterfly. He was the most friendly bartender and always good for conversation. He had a sunshiny attitude, kinda dry humor and wit. He was just really, really fun.

Y'know, I also get the vibe he was paranoid of certain patrons at the bar. That's probably where Altair's traits fit in. He was always observing, never resting.

One time, he saw someone that looked like his dad and had a panic attack. He couldn't breathe, thought he'd been discovered. Every now and then, he thought he saw a familiar face walk in and he'd have the same reaction.

He would never be able to look those patrons in the eye.

Desmond liked just blending into people while living in the city.

He was friendly, but also kept to himself. Ezio energy.

The hustle and bustle suited him really, really well.

I know everything else says he was really gruff and cynical, but I refuse that. Deadass refuse that. I think he was a natural people magnet and made people laugh to some degree.

He's a bit sarcastic but most people took that as charming. Every now and then, he would rival Edward's wit.

A little sadder, but I think he was so incredibly lonely. People knew about him, but no one really, really knew him. I mean, there was one woman, but even then that was extremely surface level. So surface level, that he didn't even know about Elijah.

Anyways, Desmond would sometimes stare at the ceiling in bed and watch as the lights danced over head, remembering looking at the stars when he was a child.

He wondered if his dad even cared.

Desmond really shouldn't be left alone with his thoughts, if I'm being honest.

I don't know is Desmond ever really planned to live a long life or even if he felt he had much purpose despite feeling relatively comfortable at Bad Weather.

Was he glad he left the farm?

Yeah, he was. But, sometimes you get homesick.

That feeling never really dissipated, regardless of how hard he tried to shove it to the back of his head.

putting on the bullshitting face
