No prompt, just me messing around with Brutus because lately I just love him. I don’t know. Don’t ask me, lmao.

(In case you don't remember: Shella is one of my OCs, she's 4's victor and she and Brutus have a fling before Valeria (also my oc, 2's escort) comes along and steals the show)

A Drink With The Competition

The mentor lounge was disappointedly empty of his friends. Haymitch nodded at a few victors from Career Districts – the rare ones who would give him the time of day, that was – and tried to find someone in there who he wouldn’t mind venting to.

He needed to vent.

First, though, he needed a drink.

He got one at the bar, downed it in one go and gestured at the bored Avox bartender that he wanted a second one. The bartender had been there long enough that he had already been ready to refill it. Haymitch had a reputation after all.

He turned around and scanned the room again. None of his friends had miraculously appeared but Brutus was rolling his eyes at Shella and clearly desperate for an escape. Their gazes met and Haymitch decided he was feeling generous so he approached Two and Four’s respective victors.

Shella didn’t like him much and since she clearly wasn’t getting what she wanted from Brutus, she left before Haymitch could properly greet either of them.

QUESTIONS FOR ME

1. Guilty Pleasure?

I still watch Blue's Clues every now and then. I know it's a preschool show from the 90's, but I can't help myself. My nieces loved watching it and it's still fun to watch.

2. Most attractive feature in a romantic partner?

Eyes

3. How did you meet your best friend?

My fiance is my bestest friend and I met him in high school in concert band, because we're nerds.

4. Is there anything you’d change about past decisions?

Oh god yes. Don't get me started.

5. How do you feel about Nutella?

Eh. Nothing special. I had it in middle school and I didn't care much for it.

More Tumblr than I could even imagine. I'd also catch up on some TV shows I've been meaning to start watch.

Their skills and success in life. I mean, I'm still a college student and I have time, but some people I know are more gifted than I am and are already out in the real world living the dream.

Again, don't get me started... alright, just a few: Emma Watson, Nathan Fillion, Felicia Day, Joss Whedon, and so many others.

bruteria replied to your post: I’m actually starting to wonder if the Templars...

In the case of 3, yeah, pretty much. But so was Connor. I don’t know what to think anymore D:

Apart from Charles Lee...everyone seemed to be as bad as each other. At first when Haytham showed up later in the game and killed loads of people I was like dude what stop being a dick

but then isn't that what Connor's been doing the whole game?

But I keep thinking about the ending and the parallels between the history and the modern Assassins. The whole theme of the America part (and the earlier games really) was about winning freedom. Connor bangs on and on about how important freedom is and how it's what the Assassins stand for.

Which makes what Desmond decided to do in the ending pretty damn weird.
