“My first memory is of being four years old and getting a piggyback from Gregor Kennedy, my father. That was when the world wasn't so big and I could see everywhere. It was when my father was a hero and not a human.”

pops in here bc I’ve been writing Resident Evil crossover AUs for fun (and angst) and I have a fun little idea for you!
so, re4make has dropped some interesting and tasty lore about Los Illuminados, aka the parasite cult that makes up the main bad guys in this particular game. according to the new lore, they popped up in 1554 and were exiled from their old place in 1741. now, we know that mutations and parasites and viruses can possibly extend somebody’s life in REverse beyond their natural lifespan and also make them far more durable than humans. I was thinking—Edward Kenway gets killed in 1735. this we’re well aware of. but what if he wasn’t?
say that Birch is aware of Los Iluminados and their work. he wants to keep a closer eye on them since he hears a lot about Las Plagas and its hive mind abilities, but he’s not about to risk becoming a part of their hive mind—he doesn’t entirely trust this cult. and he has a pesky Assassin who’s just found out that he’s actually a Templar, and who has a book and a son he would defend. if he survives the night—and it’s damn near a guarantee that he would, Birch has heard that he once cleared a whole deck of a galleon on his own—there’s nothing stopping him from taking up his sword and beelining to Birch and just cutting down every last member of the British Rite. but he can’t do that, if he has a bug inside his head.
so Edward gets knocked unconscious, and dragged off to the cult. now Birch has a reason to keep an eye on the cult, and he’s taken Edward out of the picture with no one the wiser for it.
years later—hundreds of years later—Desmond Miles, 17yo runaway, gets kidnapped along with Ashley Graham for whatever reason. maybe he saw too much and immediately launched himself at Krauser and actually managed to acquit himself pretty well in a fight, only to get stuffed into a van along with a very terrified First Daughter. Leon goes to find them.
in the meantime, Saddler has a very fucked-up Edward stand guard, and Desmond starts to talk to this guy, bc something about him seems…not quite the same as the rest of the cult. there’s some core of humanity still holding stubbornly on inside him, even if he looks pretty bad off, if not heavily mutated by now. which is how Leon ends up finding both Ashley and Desmond having managed to get a very snarly pirate to help break them out and has to gently convince said pirate that yes he really is here to help them please put that pitchfork down sir.
Oooohhh, if you wanted to, you can even include one of Ezio’s or Aquilar’s descendants in the lore as well, maybe even both? 1554 is around the time Flavia and Marcello would be 20~21 years old. Old enough to be Assassins that would be sent to foreign lands to help other Brotherhoods. We can even have them be sent by the current mentor of the Spanish Brotherhood because of this cult that supposed worship something ‘strange’. The mentor thought that the Italian Brotherhood who had a mentor who had been quite verse in strange things would have an idea of what they’re dealing with. Flavia or Marcello (or both if you want) asks to be sent because it seems connected to the precursors and, as Ezio Auditore’s children, it’s their duty to continue their father’s legacy.
They meet up with Aquilar’s child (or grandchild maybe?) and they help in exiling Los Illuminados, making the cult hate them and the Brotherhood in the process.
It’s because of their hatred for the Brotherhood that Birch was able to have a distant alliance with them and it’s because of his connection with the cult that Edward starts to suspect him as being a Templar.
(To sprinkle more angst, how about Haytham saw his father being dragged away and tried to save him, killing one of the kidnappers which ends with Teresa seeing him as a cold blooded killer and he is indoctrinated by Birch as a way to try and find Edward but never found him. After learning Birch was the leader of his father’s kidnapping, he gives up on Edward because Birch burned all evidence that will link him to Edward and the Los Illuminados)
Okay, so we go to the Ashley and Desmond part of the story.
Ashley is around 20 years old when she was abducted so, if you’d like, she could be in New York to shop or something when she was kidnapped. Desmond was on his way to his first shift in Bad Weather and saw a woman struggling while being dragged into a car with men looking like professional bodyguards (suit, sunglasses, wired ear pieces) on the ground, unconscious maybe? Dead even?
Desmond didn’t have time to think, his body reacted and he punched one of them. He starts to fight them off while telling the girl to run and the girl tried to, screaming for help but there were more men than they expected but her screaming (and his battle cries, they were not screams, they were battle cries damn it) was attracting attention so they had to book it quickly and Desmond was swept alongside the girl in the process.
Leon is briefed that an unknown man with no past of his own may be with the president’s daughter and he’s a low priority. The most that Leon is expected to do is find out who he was and if he was truly just taken alongside the Ashley because he tried to be a good Samaritan.
Now Saddler though…
Saddler had planned to kill Desmond from the very beginning but then he noticed something peculiar.
Desmond looked familiar.
So he let Desmond live because he needs to find out why Desmond looks familiar at all. He orders Edward to guard them and to keep them there.
Leon starts doing his job and Saddler gets sidetracked.
When he heard that Edward had ‘betrayed’ them, he realized why Desmond looked so familiar.
In one of the oldest journals written by his ancestors, there were sketches of the three Assassins who led to their fall and exile.
And two of them…
… looked very similar to Desmond Miles.
So now, Saddler believes Desmond is a descendant of those who exiled them and wants to infect him as well.
Because what better revenge is there than to have a descendant of those who wronged them become their ‘property’?
Unorganized Notes:
I like to imagine Ashley and Desmond become friends immediately, with Desmond helping Ashley stay calm while Ashley gives Desmond something he wanted ever since he was a child, a close friend.
Ashley would definitely not leave without Desmond and Desmond would do everything he can to keep Ashley safe.
Edward ‘recognize’ Desmond, in a way that Desmond reminds him of his young son, but he doesn’t understand it, because the infection inside him mutated thanks to his ‘bloodline’, so he’s not exactly the same as the others.
Edward will be conflicted though because his infection would make him want to obey the cult but he can't hurt Desmond at all. He doesn't want to and his body will never allow it.
Is it his own free will? The reminder of a past long gone? Or...
The Calculations at work?

And now to the feels. I COULDN'T HOLD THEM OFF OFF FOR LONG
TW: Corny AF 
When I first got on to this lovely wild west of the interwebs, never did I think I’d find the connections I did. Connections to amazing humans. Connections over great music. Connections to my own creativity I hadn’t felt in years as a result of just being inspired by all the people here. 
So. YEAH. Love songs for all you peeps. These songs reminded me to just be happy in the moment and the magic that comes with the unexpected: 
All the feels. All the feels tonight. We are on this runaway train together.
My heart to each and every one of you.
You beautiful fucking peanuts.

everything she worked for came down to the contests, she needed to get a good placement on every one to score enough points to get to the big championship. she'd done everything. put in more hours at the rink, a trainer at the gym and of course — counting every calorie that went into her body. she was prepared and had perfected her routine. but no ... it wasn't enough. she didn't get her tricks right, not scoring her high enough and coming in a third place. she never showed her face fall in public but she was barely holding it together. kennedy rushed off the ice, ripping off her skates and not bothering to grab her bag. what was the point of working hard if she wouldn't be good enough? her throat was closing up and she needed to get away — away from the rink and all the people. tears ran down her face and she didn't care. she only let her legs take her away. she'd only pulled her jacket over her costume but she couldn't feel the cold. ken didn't know for how long she'd walked until she sat down on the side of the road. a shivering mess — trying to calm her breathing down. " i'm so fucking stupid ... " it was all her own fault. she hadn't been perfect. // @ghostwritcr

So basically Kim Porter and Kimora Lee Simmons were best friends and Kim mysteriously dies all of a sudden. And the death is allegedly connected to Diddy, but they ruled it as a death from natural causes a.k.a. pneumonia.
This woman is saying that Kimora also had another best friend named Erica Kennedy, who also died mysteriously and her cause of death has still not been publicly released. Erica was the godmother to Kimora's kids and was the maid of honor at her wedding to Russell Simmons. She also apparently had a connection to Diddy and died after releasing a book, which also became a New York Times Bestseller (Bling). Kim Porter was rumored to have been writing a book right before she died.
Ed Winter is a reputable coroner to high profile celebrities and he wrote the cause of Kim Porter's death was homicide by poisoning, but then he was fired and another coroner was hired who put that it was pneumonia.
- after graduation Erica Kennedy started a career working as a publicist with various top fashion designers including Tommy Hilfiger and Sean Combs. In 2004, her novel Bling about a mogul dating a really young girl became a New York Times bestseller. She died after that. Kimora was one of the first to arrive at Kim Porter's house after seemingly died of pneumonia.
