BASIM IBN ISHAQ ASSASSIN'S CREED MIRAGE (2023)
favorite addition to canon was basim writing about how homosexual poetry feels sacred to him
— Hanif Abdurraqib, from “They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us.”
basim does not or very rarely chooses to participate in the life of the settlement, to a point that makes his absence sort of accepted, or at least commonly expected, an assigned role in itself in the bigger picture of their communal life—and his presence, when he stays around for long enough for it to become slightly steadier than a glimpse, feels almost misplaced, like 'why are you not doing what you've always been doing which is being absent from our lives, who are you' which is an exaggeration because of course they know who he is but he's a stranger, they know him as the stranger, he wants to be the stranger. being the absent affiliate is his role in the raven clan and when suddenly he begins staying for longer periods like after sigurd is rescued or post-canon both the clan and basim himself have to start adjusting to the possibility of his presence, too

100 small details for kisses
whispering ''kiss me'' to your lover
wrapping your arms around your lover's neck
kisses that travel from your lover's nose to their lips
breaking the kiss but instantly pressing your lips back together
intertwining your fingers
kisses that start out gentle but grows more passionate
forehead against forehead
running your fingers through your lover's hair
unbuttoning your lover's shirt, pressed against the wall
surprise kisses, in which your lover weren't prepared for it but responds immediately
a kiss in which, ''we're late for work but let's be later''
kisses shared under a waterfall
pulling your lover closer by the waistband
kissing under the stars
messy kisses, destroying furniture trying to reach the bed
a kiss that isn't meant to happen but it does anyway
sliding your hands down your lover's chest
grabbing your lover by the collar
''if we get caught kissing we're dead but let's risk it''
hand kisses
exploring each other's lips
smiling in-between kisses
now-or-never kisses
caressing your lover's cheek
good night kisses
''i was supposed to take a shower alone but sure, jump right in''
brushing your lips together, lingering for a moment
an accidental kiss between two exes
kisses in which, we've already said goodbye but can't help stealing another one
this might be our last kiss ever so let's make it last
kitchen counter make-outs
jumping into your lover's arms
soft kisses while cuddling in bed
i missed you kisses
a kiss that leave you breathless
stopping a kiss when it gets too heated
a kiss on the cheek turns into a kiss on the lips
trailing kisses from your lover's lips to their neck
''everything is going to be okay'' kisses
kisses that start of passionate but grows more delicate
pulling away from a kiss to look at each other, then smiling as you dive in for another kiss
a kiss to celebrate an engagement
wrapping your legs around your lover's body as they lift you
a goodbye kiss, but neither of you can quite let go
''we shouldn't do this'' but they do so, anyway
a swirling reunion kiss
''i've had a terrible day at work so just kiss me''
a kiss that lasts longer than it should
tending to your lover's wound, placing a kiss on top of their head, grateful they're still alive
a goodbye kiss to say, i don't love you as much as you love me, and i'm setting you free
spinning your lover into a kiss on the dance floor
kisses in which, i can't believe this is real, but i love you so much
tucking a strand of hair behind your lover's ear
tracing your lips against the corner of your lover's mouth
light kisses scattered across your lover's face down to their collar bone
pulling your lover into your lap, making them straddle your hips
bushing your lips against your lover's, wanting to savior the moment
playful kisses, such as, ‘‘i’m not going to kiss you.’‘ ‘‘why?’‘ ‘‘because if i do, i don’t think we’re getting out of bed today.’‘
kissing your lover's wound after having bandaged them up
mistletoe kisses
surprising your lover from behind, smacking a kiss on their cheek
caressing your lover's cheek
trying to concentrate on a task, but your lover's kissing your neck, making your head spin
looking deep into your lover's eyes, before dropping your gaze to their lips
shushing your lover as they try to kiss you, telling them that tonight is all about them, not you
a kiss only meant to last a moment, but when your lips meet, you can't pull away from each other
leaning into your lover's touch, their fingers tracing down your stomach, their body pressed against yours
a tender kiss on your lover's chest
kissing your lover so gently, worried that if you pull away for just a second, they might disappear
an accidental kiss that confuses you both, but only a moment pass before you crash your lips back against each other's
lingering forehead against forehead, consumed by each other to the point of barely having strength enough to breathe
accidentally bumping noses
kissing your lover's forehead, then bending down to meet their lips
a kiss to forgive each other for an argument
standing on your tip-toes, frustrated that you can't reach your lover's lips
unrequited love that is now requited, feelings revealed with a kiss to prove it
legs wrapped around your lover's body
pushing your lover towards the bed, laying them down gently
throwing your lover over your shoulder, carrying them over to bed
crashing your lips together during an argument
kisses in which, we just broke up, but i want to kiss you one last time
whispering ''i love you'' in-between kisses
your lover pinning your arms above your head, telling you to stay quiet
trying to deny your feelings, and attraction to your lover, but you're hiding behind your lover's door with your lover on the other side, until attraction gets the best of you, and you swing it open, jumping into your lover's arms
smiling in-between kisses
reunion kisses stemming from i thought you were dead
not being able to focus on anything during a conversation because you're too busy staring at your lover's lips
kisses in which ‘i’ll kiss you right now to prove i don’t feel anything for you.’‘ but kissing each other, they prove the exact opposite
crying during a kiss, your tears mixing with your lover's
your lover pulling away from a kiss to ask you to marry them
telling your lover you want all of them tonight
grabbing hold of your lover's collar, begging them to kiss you
sliding your hands down your lover's chest, unzipping their zipper
untying your lover's tie, using it to pull your lover into a kiss
not being able to unbutton your lover's shirt because their kisses are everywhere
kissing your lover's tears away
passionately making-out against a wall
“let’s just kiss to see what it’s like,” then pulling away, lingering, going in for the second kiss
hungry kisses and ripped apart clothes
''it's always been you'' kisses
The Ceilings of Isfahan
By Ramin Khatibi
not that it matters but basim's dedication to plants is canon and that's one of the little mundane things that make him feel so sharply himself, so grounded. the horrors must wait he's gotta water his potted lemon tree
You spend a restless night, your sleep is an intermittent, jammed flow… with dreams that seem to you the repetition of one dream always the same. You fight with the dreams as with a formless and meaningless life, seeking a pattern, a route that must surely be there, as when you begin to read a book and you don’t yet know in which direction it will carry you. What you would like is the opening of an abstract and absolute space and time in which you could move, following an exact, taut trajectory; but when you seem to be succeeding, you realize you are motionless, blocked, forced to repeat everything from the beginning.
- Italo Calvino, If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler
squishing his cheeks
you want to get to know basim, build a fire and let him talk
Love your headcanons! We aren't mutuals, but your Basim is just so well-written, he literally feels like a person. The way you utilize your language, too is? I'm in awe.
