#desmond miles is the ultimate isekai protagonist

[teecupangel]

Any idea's on a plot where Desmond, Altair, Ezio, and Connor all end up in 'Ark Survival Evolved'? How well would they survive? Would they tame any dino's? Which one's? Will there be romantic relationships? Where would they live? (Feel free to ignore if you don't know anything about ark)

For those unfamiliar with Ark Survival Evolved, the idea is you spawn on the Island populated by dinosaurs and other creatures. For this case, I will only be focusing on the base game and not include any DLCs in this answer. (Although I am very tempted to include Fjordhawk just because of the ‘eagle’ motif… even if it’s meant to be a hawk)

Let’s set it up first.

Our plot will start with all four of them waking up on the Island with no idea how they got there. Every single one of them remembers their life up to the day they die and we’ll be kind and have their body be in their mid-20s (to be more exact, their 25-year-old body, the age Desmond dies) with their Assassin robes (or white hoodie and jeans on Desmond’s case) but no gear but their hidden blade. (but only 1 hidden blade, even Ezio AND no hidden gun as well)

… Or we could totally let them get there naked with nothing, not even a hidden blade, sure.

Now, in this scenario, they would have enough experience to know they’re better off together than doing everything on their own.

They start exploring the island and “holy fucking shit there are dinosaurs there, what the fuck, what do you mean you don’t know what dinosaurs are? Those are dinosaurs!”

So they try to find a safe(ish) place for Desmond to explain what he knows about dinosaurs and they take a break near a stream perhaps. One of them takes off their hidden blade and I would be leaning on this being Ezio because he wants to show his hidden blade to Altaïr to ask if it would be possible for him to recreate the hidden gun in this place when he realized that he has some kind of metallic-like gem with the telltale white glowing lines of an Isu artefact on his arm and everyone checks their left arm and finds they have the same thing.

They start poking around with Desmond being the one dumb enough to actually poke it directly and they find out that they can access an inventory through it, craft things, a screen that shows their level, and unlockable crafting recipes that are called engrams. From their own, it’s by trial and error that they find out that they gain level doing lots of different things.

Their main immediate concern now is to create a shelter before night falls.

From there… well, they’ll definitely try to find out where the hell they were and what were they there in the first place.

PLOT POINTS:

They will definitely die. Multiple times. And just to fuck with them even more, any time one of them dies, everybody dies. No exception. XD Oh! And when they spawn, they have to get back their stuff from their corpses which is always unpleasant and they always spawn on their current ‘base’ as if the metal jewel in their arm knows where to spawn them even if they changed base.

Their engram is a bit different as it seemed to be a strange list of what technology they all know from their time period with the last engrams they can unlock being more in-line with Isu tech. Desmond’s time period’s tech is the second to the last engrams they can unlock.

Ratonhnhaké:ton is their primary hunter and he will teach everyone what he knows. Even some tricks he later learns, long after Desmond stopped watching his memories. When they’re finally setting up their primary base, he’s the one who set up their dino-defenses.

Altaïr is more or less in charge of the forging and crafting of really complicated things. He focused on things that could help them first like weapons and things that would fortify their base.

Ezio is more of the tamer. He’s the one who likes to tame dinosaurs and, dear god, he managed to create a farm of all things. It’s… honestly impressive. He was vetoed from making a vineyard though.

Desmond bounces to whoever needs him most. He mostly acts as their assistant and sometimes, especially in Altaïr’s case, he reminds them that they need to take a break.

All of them had a hand in planning their base but Altaïr and Ratonhnhaké:ton are more on the utility and defenses while Ezio likes to add things just to make it ‘pleasing to the eye’. Desmond usually gets the final vote for some reason even when Altaïr and Ratonhnhaké:ton teaming up should mean that it’s 2 against 1.

Sure, there’s a plot. But let’s be honest… most of us play this kind of games to make bases and ride dinosaurs. If there’s a plot, it will be summarized as either “Isu Bullshit” OR “Abstergo/Rebecca fucked up and created a virtual world for Sample 17’s data”. Take your pick.

Location of their Base:

Ngl, I wanna give them a raft base because that’s one of the safest (sorta) options in Ark Survival Evolved or maybe they can create their base in the Hidden Lake or Herbivore Island as those two are safe bets.

BUT I personally believe they’ll all think that a high vantage point will be their best bet and would go for mountainous areas they can fortify. Also, they would want to be near the center of the island.

Which leaves: The Red Peaks. It has a forest underneath the mountain where they could lose any predators chasing them, lessening the chance of them accidentally bringing a predator to their base.

The idea is that they will end up with a fortress on the top of the mountain similar to Masyaf with an irrigation system connected to the nearest water supply up north.

Altaïr is absolutely fascinated with the idea of electricity.

Dinosaurs:

There is one dinosaur that they will definitely tame: the Argy (Argentavis). They weren’t even planning on creating an aviary for them or even taming them. There were a lot of Argys in the Red Peak and it was either they tame them or they kill of them to secure the location. They decided to just tame them and hope for the best. They definitely lucked out as anyone who plays Ark will tell them that Argys are one of the best (debatable the best) dinosaurs to tame and have multiple specialized dinosaurs.

Desmond insists that they need a T-Rex. Unfortunately, they don’t know what a T-Rex looks like and Desmond isn’t really into dinosaurs so he made a mistake. They tamed a Carnotaurus named Rex.

They never let Desmond forget it and they gave him a T Rex as a gift. The name of Desmond's T Rex is Cars.

Ezio has a Dodo farm. Desmond is just happy they have eggs. Ezio keeps telling him not to name the dodos just in case they need emergency meat. Desmond still names them. In Desmond’s defense, he named them after Templars he knows. Ezio hates the Dodo named Cesare the most… because it gives the best eggs.

Ratonhnhaké:ton has a squad of Raptors that go hunting with him. No jokes are made about that dinosaur film with a similar premise because Desmond is dead before that movie was released.

Altaïr doesn’t really tame dinosaurs as he’s busy making new things for them to use. His idea of taking a break is checking the tamed dinosaurs on their base and sketching them, most of the time writing observations of their habits and appearance. Desmond suggested they get him a cat as a pet… the only cat they could find nearby was a Sabertooth. They still gave it to Altaïr anyway.

Romance:

… It’s me, nonny. If there’s gonna be any romance in this plot, you know it’s gonna be AltDes or an entire harem for Desmond. XD

Puella Magi Desmond Magica (well what else am I supposed to call this?)

A discussion between myself and @teecupangel with everyone’s favorite Ultimate Isekai Protagonist Desmond Miles in the Puella Magi Madoka Magica series.

(Aka two of my biggest hyperfixations)

OHH THE ANGST POTENTIAL! YES LETS THROW HIM WITH MAMI. She asks him to keep an eye out for Kyouko too, along with any “strange occurrences”. He takes the night shift at a bar (can’t help it tbh) but during the day he’s on his own sort of “patrol” while Mami is in school, keeping an eye on Kyouko and helping her out on the streets. She may be stubborn but so is he, and he does sometimes give her a sample of Mami’s latest cake creation. It’s like this up until the timeline starts, Homura’s first day out of the hospital in Mitakihara.

Mami’s recently met a junior of hers, Madoka Kaname, and has taken to bringing her over for tea and cake. Desmond likes her and is glad Mami has someone to really connect with other than him. After Kyouko’s family died in that fire, Mami and Kyouko’s friendship changed. So Desmond is happy to see her bringing another person around the apartment again.

A few days pass and then Mami’s bringing another junior home, a shy girl named Akemi Homura. Desmond makes note of this and continues his days as normal.

A big storm is approaching Mitakihara. Desmond and Mami head to the closest shelter but Mami somehow slips away from him. So he activates his Eagle Vision and tracks her to the storm’s center, where he sees an upside down clock thing with a grinning face.

Desmond’s eyes are drawn to two figures leaping and darting and sending bolts of color at the thing. He lets the world bleed gray and there are three figures shining blue-gold.

One of them is on the ground, looking like she’s been crying.

A piece of debris hits one of the leaping figures and oh fuck oh fuck that’s his little sister. He recognizes the gold hair. Although her outfit is strange.

Desmond had promised himself he wouldn’t use his Assassin skills in this new life he was given. He would keep his family away from his old life.

He broke his promise as he flew towards the body hurtling towards the ground. Every free running skill pushed to its limit as he ran, leaped, and dodged.

He cradled his sister’s body as she smiled at him. As Desmond held her, a voice entered his mind.

Do you want to make a wish?

BEHOLD:

DESMOND MILES, THE ASSASSIN EAGLE CHEF!

AVAILABLE IN OVERCOOKED! ALL YOU CAN EAT ON DECEMBER 21, 2012!

"What the fuck!?" - Desmond Miles, waking up in front of an onion king and a big dog after activating the device in the Grand Temple.

Sooooo...

I told my friend about the "Desmond is the Ultimate Isekai Protagonist" post I made yesterday and she didn't believe that I can put Desmond anywhere so she challenged me to put him in the last game we played.

I'm sure she just wanted me to make a plot but I don't wanna work, I have an okay-sized phone with a free painting app that gives me only three layers, big fingers, and something to prove.

(I did have to base it on the parrot chef since the only online reference I can find of the bald eagle chef was the head but I think it's pretty okay?)

Had the sudden thought of somehow Desmond was dropped kicked into Dragon Age/Thedas, specifically the Inquistion and received the glowy mark of doom. And on one hand, it's all here we go again, and on the other hand, someone keeps a leash on Desmond because he keeps trying to run away

Well, we can’t really blame him considering he just got booted from being a chosen one to another chosen one in a different world where he knows nothing at all XD

And in a world where one of the major faction is called the Templars?

He’d be wary of them from the get go, that’s for sure. XD (not that the mages wouldn't send alarms all around his mind)

Honestly, he’d probably go his own way and travel the new world he finds himself in, trying to understand the geopolitical status of the world.

Well, that seemed like a tall order so he would probably focus on Thedas first.

He’d also build his own Brotherhood along the way.

In his defense, it’s less building it and sorta accidentally setting it up because he kept saving random people during his travels and feeling the need to help them.

He calls them travels.

Leliana calls them ‘Desmond running away again’.

The funny thing though… he’s just traveling but he gets roped into the power struggle all over Thedas and gets railroaded into the original plot.

Not that he knows this.

Perhaps it’s simply fate.

Perhaps the Calculations is still at play.

Perhaps… a certain ‘hedge mage’ is at fault.

Desmond definitely isn’t sure.

He’s just trying to live his life in this new world he finds himself.

.

Oh.

And because this is the kind of curse Desmond is given whenever he gets isekai’ed to another world/game/franchise.

Yes.

The companions and advisors want to bang him.

The people he recruits for his Brotherhood though thinks of him as a mentor and more of a parental figure.

What if Q from Star Trek is Desmond’s real father?

So this stems from my tags in this post:

#ngl when i first read this ask#i thought you wanted me to make a “q is desmond's real father” idea#then i remembered#that john de lancie was q#and i was like 'oooohhh'#assassin's creed#william miles#ask and answer

And then @nimadge left this:

Re your tags, I mean, it is a cool AU idea >u< (anon discovering Cool Info™ even after all those years is so nice tho, keepingDesmondalive x3)

So here’s a what if scenario:

Of course, we have the option of this happening while Q had been turned into a mortal by the Q Continuum or not.

In this case, we’ll make Desmond the son of a non-mortal Q simply because mortal Q would have a hard time to mate with a human that was not a member of the Voyagers.

Of course, Desmond’s conception is done for the very same premise that Q had before: to produce a being with the power of a Q and the morals of a human as a way to end the civil war.

In other words, Desmond’s conception would be before Q mates with the female Q to produce… uuuhh… Q Jr.

Since Q (and his race) seemed to be capable of manipulating time itself, Q formed some sort of partnership with Minerva to ensure the creation of Desmond. As far as Tinia and Juno know, Minerva got the idea of saving the world from the second Solar Flare from the Calculations but the truth is that Q appeared to her and informed her of what’s going to happen (calling their Calculations ‘children’s toy’).

From their partnership, they pushed for the ‘Calculation’ that will create the genome of Desmond’s mother who Q will mate with. Minerva will leave clues to push his ancestors along to ensure the birth of his mother and, in this case, Minerva is both matchmaker and weird godmother, I guess?

So, in this setup, Desmond’s mother is also a descendant of the Auditore-Kenway line together with her Ibn-La'Ahad bloodline although, in this case, William Miles is a descendant of Ratonhnhaké:ton’s oldest child while Desmond’s mother would be a descendant of Io:nhiòte instead and that’s where their lineage diverged.

Desmond’s mother knows that William Miles isn’t Desmond’s real father but she kept it a secret as her marriage with William Miles had been purely for the benefit of the Assassin Brotherhood, to merge their two lineages and create a child that will have access to the memories of the great Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad and Ezio Auditore with the use of the Animus blueprints that Bill got years back.

The previous mentor had tried to dissuade them from doing such a thing but Bill didn’t listen and she didn’t bother to tell the mentor that she was simply using Bill to hide the fact that she was already pregnant.

She doesn’t necessarily understand who Q is but she mistook Q’s words of ‘a child that will stop the war’ to mean the war between the Assassins and the Templars and not Q Continuum’s own civil war.

Of course, to ensure Desmond doesn’t accidentally destroy the Milky Way growing up, Q marked him with something that will suppress his abilities until December 21, 2012.

To be more exact…

The supposed device that would save humanity from the Solar Flare was actually simply a device that will take off the suppression placed on Desmond.

The world wasn’t saved that day by the device. It was saved thanks to Desmond’s Q abilities.

Unorganized Notes:

There will be angst included because Desmond would realize that his stepfather is an asshole and his biological father is also an asshole.

Q would take Desmond away after December 21 (and everyone would think he’s dead) but, instead of placing him smack in the middle of civil war, he’ll be transported to the USS Enterprise on the year 2372. Everyone believed that Q didn’t want to deal with explaining anything and thought Picard and his crew can help Desmond get up to date.

Unfortunately, Q only thought about how 2372 is the year that the civil war between the Q Continuum started and not how, in 2372…

The Borg makes their second attempt to take over the Federation.

Desmond in middle earth? Idk, the idea just came to me, but like he is transported there and meets Bilbo (before the quest or after?)

For “Desmond getting booted to Middle Earth”, we have “Desmond takes his ancestors turned kids sightseeing and eavesdrop on the Fellowship” idea and “Desmond becomes the mentor of the Shire Brotherhood” idea in the comments of this post.

Now, you specified Desmond getting booted to Middle Earth and meeting Bildo (before or after the quest), so in this setup, let’s say Desmond gets booted after activating the device and he has no idea where or when he was then he meets an actual wizard. Desmond starts with the whole ‘probably POE related’ then, after Gandalf shows him enough magic to make him go “oh shit, that’s real magic, what the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuck”, he’d be sorta lost, unsure of what to do because he’s not just been transported into some other time, he’s been kicked out of his own world.

So he just tags along to wherever Gandalf goes, acts as his sorta errand boy. But mostly, Gandalf teaches him about the world he was in, never asking why he did not know about any of these or why he seemed to be alright with a stranger following him around.

So when Gandalf met Thorin and they agreed in taking Smaug down, Desmond pretty much joined them in ‘inviting’ Bilbo.

Unorganized Notes:

Desmond would definitely feel a kindred spirit in Bilbo’s desire to not be part of any adventure and, while the world he was in had a lot of magical (weird) stuff, Desmond did feel that this was sorta more like a retirement for him. No Assassins or Templars to think about. No Isus to think about.

Bilbo is actually the reason why Desmond joined them on their journey. “Someone has to look for the little guy.”

He does get along with everyone and he understands their reason for wanting to kill Smaug. He does worry about Thorin though, especially when Desmond sees how Thorin tends to forgo reason and go with his ‘feelings’.

Desmond being there does mean Dori doesn’t have to carry Bilbo. Instead, Dori is in charge of keeping an eye on Desmond and Bilbo (to make sure they don’t wander or get into trouble). Balin still gets to be the cool old mentor to Bilbo and Desmond though (mostly Bilbo).

Desmond saw the shinies on Smaug’s pile and it took him all his willpower not to pocket something because, goddamn it, he wants some.

Desmond would probably be the one to notice something is wrong with the ring Bilbo got. It feels… wrong to him. Like it’s a POE but different. POEs to Desmond had never been malicious. If anything, they were always eager to be used by Desmond but the Ring… That specific Ring. It’s like it’s deliberately trying to keep Desmond away.

Desmond doesn’t necessarily know anything about Sauron as Gandalf only gave him a brief ‘background’ and he made it sound like Sauron is some kind of bad dude, not one of the most powerful Maiar still hellbent on conquering everything.

Desmond doesn’t know it but the reason why Gandalf is okay with all his strangeness is because Desmond feels familiar to Gandalf. Not the exact same feeling but close enough that Gandalf believes he is related to Varda.

Instead of Varda (associating Desmond with light and the stars), we can make Desmond feel similar to Mandos to associate him with his death back in his world and the fates that govern his entire life.

If we're gonna keep putting Desmond in as The Isekai Protagonist then we should whole hog and add in the iconic System or Gamer System 'gift' so many other Isekai/Tensei Protags seem to get like it's the New Age Syphilis.

But with my own little twist I once proposed when I was more into KHR (Katekyo Hitman Reborn!) fandom though it never really caught on. Desmond's Gamer System functions like some other games instead of the usual adventure RPG. Maybe its one, maybe its some, maybe its all of them- either way, it's certainly not something like Pokemon or the Final Fantasy series.

Instead, it's like an idle game, a match 3, a rhythm game, or a merge game. Hell, the one time he got a bingo game; he won Mega Bingo, almost got brained by the giant chest full of gold and jewels, and then it never appeared before him again.

He did like the idle cat games though. (The cats were very cute. A bit hard to explain all the cats though.)

“New Age Syphilis” lollol. Yeah, let’s give Desmond the geek-syphilis. XD

Okay, okay, okay.

If we’re going for other genres, my first thought is the scourged of the land, the anti-christ of the modern gaming world:

Loot-boxes/Gacha-mechanics

And it’s the worst kind. The kind that does not give pity ‘roll’ or have the ‘if you roll 300 times, you can pick one of these choices because goddamn your rng sucks wtf???’.

And that’s not even the genre, no, no, no.

That’s the “REWARD”.

Even if Desmond clears something via idle game, match 3, etc, he still has to do a gacha roll to get his reward.

And, to make it more annoying for him, the world he is in right now, everything has different game mechanics and it’s a whiplash at times. Sometimes, it feels more like minigames which is fine. The idle cat game is really just Desmond relaxing for the day and playing with cats.

But then, there are instances where Desmond gets a headache because…

Car chase? Boom! Racing game controls and gameplay!

About to assassinate someone? QTEs! QTEs everywhere!

Desmond gets his own land? He suddenly has game notifications and tutorials for town-building mechanics.

There’s supposed to be some kind of monster infestations? Welp. Desmond, your town-building mechanics just got pushed for tower-defense mechanics. Oh, and the shit you can build? You guessed it! GACHA ROLLS!

Want to fuck with Desmond even more?

The tutorials are just pages and pages of what he can do like someone from Koei-Tecmo made the damn thing.

You know what would be funny?

If Desmond realizes that some of the rewards he gets from the gacha rolls are his ancestors, they’re the highest USSR/6Stars reward with a probability of 3%. Goodbye slacker life, it’s time for Desmond to grind for those Isu shards just to get some sweet, sweet rolls.

(Nobody tell him that there are also Holiday alts that have a possibility of 1%)

……………………

It would be funny (in the worst possible way) if Desmond gets a final notification just when he has a very cozy life in this world and it’s:

“Thank you for playing [REDACTED]. Due to lack of interest, [REDACTED] will be ending its live-services at exactly 180 days. All data will be deleted and there are no plans to create backups. Thank you for understanding.”

And now the final arc of Desmond’s story in this world begins:

Desmond needs to find a way to create a private server from inside the game. XD

God of War and Assassin's Creed crossover? Where Evior or the Brotherhood come across Kratos and Atreus and basically they form a strong bond where they all come together to fight in the end. Or even Desmond dropping into Kratos' life and they form some kind of brotherly bond. Hell even Kassandra meeting younger Kratos in Sparta?

This reminded me of this idea

The idea is Desmond gets transported into GOW with a deaged Eivor who doesn’t have all her memories, only that her name is Eivor and this man who found her would be able to ‘help’ her. So they start looking around this strange forest (strange in the sense that Desmond can feel something in it but he can’t understand what it is) and that’s how they meet up with Kratos and Atreus who are just getting ready on their journey.

Whether their journey is the plot of GOW or GOWR is up to you but GOW would give Desmond and Kratos more chance to bond since they’re now both single parents. Not to mention, Eivor likes to kick Atreus even though she can’t understand why. Whenever Desmond asks why she likes to kick him (who just goes “knock it off!” but doesn’t try to hurt her), Eivor just gets this little frown on her face before she says, “I don’t know. I just… want to…”

Desmond, being raised in an isolated cult, thinks this is that thing called ‘pulling the pigtails of one’s crush’ that he had seen in media before and Kratos just agrees to it because Desmond said it with such confidence and it wasn’t like he had any other reason he could think of to why Eivor liked to kick Atreus.

In this idea, Eivor’s inclusion would make her the ‘anomaly’ that Odin wants to kill because she is Odin but not Odin at the same time.

Also, Eivor and Atreus’ relationship would provide an additional plot point of how they don’t have to be as they have been prophesized to be.

.

.

Now, if you want Desmond to meet up Kratos while he’s in Greece, things would be much more complicated. While Desmond would have no qualms with Kratos raging on the gods, he would definitely not approve of Kratos’ destructive methods, especially when his beef with the gods ends with the suffering and death of innocent people.

In this scenario, Desmond would appear out of nowhere and has no idea why he’s there. Maybe even assume that he had been transported after saving the world. He joins with Kratos because, if anyone knows why he’s there, it would be the gods. Although, in this scenario, he just wants to talk to one of the gods but the gods want him dead as well so, okay then, enemy of the enemy is a temporary ally.

He tries to pull Kratos’ destruction a bit, with varying success.

In the end, once Kratos gets his ‘happy ending’, Desmond finally learned why he had been summoned.

Athena had summoned him to kill Kratos and take his place as god.

This entire time, Athena had been planning for Kratos to attain godhood and Desmond’s status as anomaly gives him the ‘power’ to kill Kratos and take his godhood because, as far as the world they are in is concerned, the Isu genes in his body had been transformed to those of gods, meaning Desmond was a demigod in this world.

But the real question is…

Will Desmond kill Kratos, the man who had destroyed the Greek pantheon, leaving mountains and mountains of corpses on his wake?

*runs to you and shoves a letter, immediately runs away after*

*you look inside and see a note saying: "AC x Bendy and the Ink Machine pls. P.S Clay lives."*

Okay so I’m going to take this as a crossover request and, because I am a devout believer that Desmond is the ultimate isekai protagonist, we’re going to kick Desmond into Bendy and the Ink Machine for this one.

I will be focusing on the first game (although I guess you can set this around Dark Revival if you’d like). This has spoilers to the ending of the first game too.

So for this one, Desmond wakes up at the entrance of the studio. He’s already inside and when he turns around to check the door, ink just starts dripping quickly and turning the entire wall with the door into pure ink that just keeps falling and falling, covering everything.

Desmond was about to touch it when he hears a voice, “Don’t touch that, Seventeen.”

He rummages his bag and finds that he’s missing his phone but there’s now a walkie talker inside that springs to life and he hears Clay go, “Hey, Seventeen. So good news, we’re sorta alive. Bad news, dear old Sixteen screwed up and got us into this mess.”

“Clay?”

“Yup, that’s me. Your old buddy Clay. Well, not old since we only met three months ago.”

Wait, wait. Where am I?” Desmond pauses before he adds, “Where are you?”

“Ah. That’s a bit harder to explain.” Clay said and grew quiet for a moment before he said, “I have no idea where we are, only that this seems to be a location in between? Like the place itself is real but something is distorting everything and that’s making it ‘not real’ at the same time?”

“What?”

“In a nutshell, this place is a ‘bad place’ and we need to find a way to get out. That black ink all over? That seems to be directly connected to the distortion that makes this a very bad place.”

“… Okay so ink bad and we need to get out.” Desmond pauses before sighing, “Just another day for us unlucky subjects, huh?”

“Love your enthusiasm, Seventeen.” Clay said in a fake cheerful tone before adding in a more solemn tone, “As for me, I’m currently tethered to you. Well, my digital consciousness is anyway. I’d like it if you keep the walkie talker close since that’s the only thing I can find in your bag I can connect to.”

“Tethered?”

“I have no body at the moment so think of me as a ghost or something.” Clay clarifies before admitting, “And I’m the reason why we’re here in this creepy place.”

“Desmond… something here can give me my own body.”

Unorganized Notes:

So the idea is that their main objectives are (1) find what can make Clay his own body and (2) find an exit.

They can use one of the ink machines to make Clay a body but the ink machines they find can only give Clay a very ‘cartoony’ body that looks like a Disney ripoff. (I’m thinking either we give Clay a Boris body or a cute small Bendy body)

They don’t know about Bendy or any of his ‘friends’ since AC world has Disney instead so Desmond would probably call Clay’s boy either Doofy (if Boris) or something like Smiley (for Bendy).

If we’re setting this during the first game, Desmond meets up with Allison who tells him that she’s looking for a man named Henry who should be in the studio. Allison will give him the info dump of the place but also calls him a ‘stranger’ because he shouldn’t be here at all (which was true).

… I kinda want Desmond to be able to save Buddy but up to you just how dark you want this to be.

Once they reach the ink machine that can give Clay an actual body, they find Henry who is starting to lose it and trying to destroy the machine to try and stop the loop. So now, they have to make a choice. Help Henry find a way to end this endless nightmare or stop Henry so they could get Clay his own body?

#i was contemplating if the ink machines #could like make ink copies of desmond’s ancestors #but i feel like if it could #it would be funnier if they were like bendy in the assassin robes of his ancestors #and they don’t talk but they got the assassin skills #and they obey desmond #idk #i didn’t include it in the actual notes #because i feel like it would make the idea not that scary anymore #and more on the ‘aaawww’ side #ask and answer #desmond is the ultimate isekai protagonist #assassin's creed #desmond miles #teecup writes/has a plot #fic idea: assassin's creed #clay kaczmarek #bendy and the ink machine #fic idea: crossover

I sometimes think about Desmond in a transformers au, where he'd either be a human trying to avoid the whole alien robots coming to earth or is a bot trying to stay out of the war

(I like to think he'd transform into a motorcycle lol)

I mean… why not make Desmond’s life miserable (affectionately) by making it both?

So let’s do the usual Desmond is the ultimate isekai protagonist and kick him in the Transformer universe of your choice after he dies after operating the device.

Desmond finds himself in a world very similar to his own that the only difference is that there are no Assassins or Templars or even Isus in this world. If you want to give him a headache, this world has Assassin’s Creed as a fictional franchise that started out as a video game.

And it’s only small blessings that the name Desmond Miles is not that weird and he doesn’t look like the game Desmond Miles because the game Desmond Miles always have a different face in each game.

So, anyway, the Autobots and Decepticons start their war again here on Earth and Desmond is trying not to be part of it.

Unfortunately for him, it seemed that the war keeps following him for some reason.

Desmond thinks it’s a coincidence and he’s just focus on helping people escape the destruction that comes with the Decepticons not having any problems with collateral damage and the Autobots only being able to prevent so much before having to focus on actually trying to take down the Decepticons.

Then…

Desmond almost gets crushed by the rubbles…

Only to be able to get into safety by turning into a motorcycle.

What. The. Fuck.

He doesn’t know it yet but…

The reason why the Decepticons and Autobots are always in the vicinity where he is or seemed to be going the same direction?

They’re looking for the same thing:

The Allspark, a powerful artifact from their world that is said to be able to create new Transformer life.

And they can only get the ‘area’ where it’s supposed to be, not its exact location.

Something that they find to be strange.

They believe that one of the humans might have it but that’s not possible because the AllSpark cannot be held by a human.

None of them can even think of the possibility…

That the AllSpark has taken human form.

#so yeah #I guess this is #desmond is the allspark #and nobody (not even desmond) knows it #is he really desmond miles? #or did the allspark get into contact with the games #and some weird shit happened #and it took the form of desmond miles? #you pick #I guess XD #desmond miles is a transformer #… technically? #ask and answer #assassin's creed #desmond miles #teecup writes/has a plot #fic idea: assassin's creed #transformers #fic idea: transformers #fic idea: crossover

Ah yes desmond miles my favourite isekai character (but seriously I love all your posts about him)

Desmond is absolutely the ultimate isekai protagonist!

Hell, he's also the best transmigration protagonist even when he doesn't know where the hell he is in the first place. XD

(Thank you! In all seriousness, the real reason why I have a lot of fun ideas on how to make Desmond suffer (affectionately) is because you guys keep throwing me ideas XD)

#you can throw me any series/franchise/story/game #and i will find a way to make it work #for desmond XD #ask and answer #assassin's creed #desmond miles

Writing this as my pinned post since I have a bit of free time anyway.

Introduction:

Hi. You can call me teecup or angel. This is primarily my AC and writing tumblr blog.

I post my fics in AO3 as teecup_angel.

I also have this tumblr blog that’s mostly me reblogging other stuff and very rarely I post something personal, I guess.

I have a twitter too but I haven’t used it in… I wanna say nearing a year? Maybe??? Yeeaaahhhh…

I’m currently writing fics for Assassin’s Creed and my primary focus is Desmond Miles because he deserves better.

Warnings:

I will pair Desmond with anyone (and I mean anyone) and my OTP is AltDes. I also do write gen so if you want to look at my tumblr but you don’t ship Desmond with any of his ancestors, I suggest blocking the following tags (altdes, ezides, condes, haydes, eddes). I also use those tags even when it’s just hinted at just to be safe.

While I cannot stop any minor from looking at this blog, please note that this may contain nsfw posts and I curse like a repressed catholic who was not allowed to curse when they were young. Also, I use 'dumbass' affectionately.

For Asks and Requests:

My ask box is open for nonnies and I try to answer every ask I get unless they specify that they want to keep it private.

Also, if you left me a suggestion or request in AO3, I do try to keep notes of them.

If you do request something or just leave me a plot idea, the most you’ll get from me would be a rambling of how it could work and possible subplots we can add to it. I tend to write whatever strikes my fancy and I’m hesitant in posting too many wips in AO3. Here on tumblr though… short fic and drabbles galore. The only reason why I wouldn’t answer your ask is if I couldn’t get to it in time as I allot a specific time for all asks and reblogs I get. If you don’t see it answered, it only means I’ll get to it next time.

I'm also fine with anyone using any of the posts/fic here or in AO3 to write or draw something as long as the post is linked and I'm informed :)

Also, you can request any crossover ideas with Assassin’s Creed and I’ll find a way to kick Desmond into it. I am a big believer of Desmond is the ultimate isekai protagonist. XD

Concerning the tags of this tumblr:

I got lazy later on in tagging posts I reblog (mostly fanworks from other people) but:

Any ask I answer will have the tag: #ask and answer or #submission for long asks.

Any fic idea I write will have the tag: #teecup writes/has a plot or/and #fic idea: assassin's creed (note: this one usually does not get used for any reblogs with additional ideas so I guess check the reblogs and the replies? This also sometimes does not get used if I'm butting in on other people's posts because it kinda feels wrong to add it? I know I should add a different tag for that but we'll see if I do down the line XD)

Headcanons and analysis (they're sometimes the same???) have #teecup analyze more than necessary and/or #headcanon: assassin's creed

Sometimes I make edits with varying success of humor: #teecup edits (sometimes I do screw up use '#teecup edit' instead XD)

I also draw rarely: #teecup draws

AO3 Stuff:

At the moment (and this part will be updated if necessary), the following have a weekly Monday update:

Eagle of Alamut (Desmond gets thrown back to 12th century Jerusalem in his 16-year-old body, endgame: AltDes)

I also sometimes suddenly post sometimes 2 or 3 more fics all at the same time and it’s kinda my modus operandi to 'coincide' it with important AC dates.

(Also, for those asking me if I need a beta, yeah, most probably but then I would be obligated to remove the "No Beta We Die Like Desmond" tag and the tag is too funny for me to give it up. XD I'd appreciate any comments that tell me if I've written something wrong though, especially the non-English words I sometimes use.)
