    Summary

    This might as well happen.

    It’s a thought Desmond has more often than not. Not resignation and not acceptance, either. Just pattern recognition, simple and predictable:

    the world breaks, he shows up, and things get messy before they get better.

    This is how it’s always happened.

    Then, within a single blink, something is breathing against the back of his neck. Warm, steady, and far too close. He turns to a blur of white and black and red, to the screeching drag of breath that isn’t quite human and doesn’t bother pretending to be, either. For a moment, neither of them move. Then—

    “Hey,” Desmond says, voice rough with sleep. “Personal space.”

    The shape pauses. Tilts.

    Pierrot, he’s learned, does that when he’s thinking.

    Summary

    Desmond had only been planning on visiting Rome.
    He only wanted a small glimpse of the city– of the man who had changed Desmond’s view on life and made him believe it was worth living. Then he would leave and try to deal with the concept of being in the past by himself. But Desmond had never been that lucky. Things never went that easy for him.
    Of course he would lose his journal somewhere in Rome, and of course that journal would end up in the hands of Ezio fucking Auditore.

    Because that was simply Desmond’s luck.

     

    Or, Desmond discovers his ability to draw due to the Bleeding Effect and keeps a journal. A journal which, through some unlikely coincidences, ends up in Ezio’s possession. Things unravel from there.

    Summary

    Desmond thought he died. But he woke up. His body is alien and monstrous and he quickly ends up in the clutches of Al Mualim, the old assassin thinking that he is the Apple of Eden. And if that all were not bad enough, why is Altaïr staring at him like he wants to lock Desmond away for himself?

    Summary

    Verso does not want this life. Maelle gave it to him anyway. And because the winner takes it all, he has no choice but to remain.

    Learning to live is not an easy thing when you have spent so long existing for a purpose you never chose. It is even harder when you have to stand beside the people you once believed you had to sacrifice.

    But perhaps, through bonds he never believed he could build, even someone like Verso can learn that existing is not the same as living.
