Okay, so I'm not going to lie, literal squeals of glee when I opened this file.

@ghostlycircaea, you are the best. I love this. I love them.

I present My Best Boys: Brasidas of Sparta, and the misthios Alexios with eagle companion Ikaros.

I feel a bit insane finishing two in a day, but to be fair I was already a good way through both of them before today.

This pose was a nightmare to get right. I had to use a 3d model to get it right because I could not, for the life of me, work out the proportions (magic poser is a life saver ya’ll).

Also, as little fun fact, I (technically) graduated today! Technically only because I finished my classes like. two months ago. I also didn’t go to the ceremony (I don’t live within a thousand miles of my university’s campus 😐) hence why it’s just a fun fact.

Happy Brasideia 2024 🎉

Please enjoy this ridiculous drawing that took me forever to finish because I could only work on it for a few minutes at a time before devolving into hysterics - I hope someone finds it at least sort of funny 😂

Idea lovingly ripped off from a future scene in my fic The Children of Kephallonia, during the Arkadia arc, where Brasidas is undercover and has thus changed his armor and unbraided his hair. And as you might have seen in the notes of my last Kassidas art, I recently had the revelation that the most likely, or at least the most hilarious, solution that I have found for Brasidas’ very much not historically accurate hair is that he has a mullet. Which meant I immediately had to rewrite that Arkadia scene to fit the mullet in lol.

Of course, the wording will be a little different in that scene when it is one day posted, because Kassandra and Ikaros’ exchange here is not quite but almost word for word the same exchange between Jake and Rosa in an episode of Brooklyn Nine Nine.

If you enjoyed this but were also hoping for some more serious Kassidas content from me today, I do have a surprisingly angsty (at least by my standards) Kassidas fic that I’ve been working on for the last month or so. Unfortunately, chapter one just kept getting longer and remains unfinished despite my repeated attempts to end the goddamn chapter, so jury’s still out on whether I actually get it up today, especially since I woke up with a terrible head cold 😬

But if you are interested, here’s a less angsty spoiler free sneak peak of Hold Your Bloody Hand in Mine!

It’s by far the strangest thing Brasidas has ever witnessed. He had known, theoretically, that there must have been an eagle to give Kassandra her title. Watching the sacred bird of Zeus descend from the heavens to nip at Kassandra’s ear with clear familiarity and affection is another thing altogether. He had not been prepared. That seems to be becoming a trend when it comes to Kassandra.

Title: don't hold your breathe waiting for me 'cause the ocean needs you more Fandom: Assassin's Creed: Odyssey Pairing: Brasidas/Kassandra Tags: Modern Era, Modern Kassandra, Canon Compliant, Museum Visit, Grief/Mourning, if you believe in reincarnation this just makes everything worse, Tragedy Summary:

“Strange to think this is all a person may amount to, his ashes and his kleos.” -- Kassandra finds herself in Amphipolis after 2000 years on her way to answering the staff's call to return to the lost city.

This is my contribution to this year's Brasideia! I had this in my drafts for a while once I started playing AC:O again and it was awesome having an event to get me focused on finishing it. I've become a complete Kassidas fan over the last year and thinking about either Brasidas' death or Kassandra becoming the keeper of memories makes me cry so I decided to combine the two. Thank you to @aeide and @findusinaweek for hosting Brasideia 2024 and keeping this little corner of fandom alive and well. I really enjoyed participating and am looking forward to seeing what everyone posts!!
