my favorite thing about Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is that, despite there being nothing wrong with Alexios’ character, everyone is nuts for Kassandra. It’s so fucking funny

Today i indulge is a tiny bit of suit/future Kassandra. Only a little bit, im not getting carried away yet.
has someone done this already
Spoilers for the worst part of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (Legacy of the First Blade chapter 2) but the same spoilers that have already been throughly talked about.
I broke down and decided to play chapter 2 of the dlc. I knew what was going to happen, but I wanted to be able to compare any changes they make to the original. I can’t believe they tried to say that they gave you the option to show you had a kid out of obligation to your bloodline. I took the dialogue choice that wasn’t the “we had a baby because I love you Natakas” option and she said basically that anyway, that they have a family now and that’s awesome. Natakas just looked mopey after.
Myrrine is right fucking there Ubisoft! Why the hell was Kassandra not talking about making this sacrifice like her mother did? I get that Kassandra having Isu ancestors is important and that she basically had to have a kid to fit in the larger story. But you could have her doing that without going from talking about how she is never going to live the simple life because it’s not for her and saying a sad goodbye that was best for everyone, right into a happy family montage.
I think it would’ve made an interesting story to have Kassandra decide that it was worth it to make this sacrifice to make sure her mother’s sacrifice was not in vain. These are two women in a heavily patriarchal society who when left to their own devices rule pirate islands and make money as a mercenary. This was a sacrifice for them. Children and loss of freedom are often tied together for women. Also they would be risking death to give birth.
Kassandra deciding to go through a pregnancy and birth isn’t even a part of the story since Alexios is an option for the main character too. Reproduction is not an equal thing and it was ridiculous to even try to write it that way. Personally, I’m more bothered about this than the fact that they basically retconned any homosexual Kassandra or Alexios. Alexios having an orgasm and Kassandra gestating for nine months then giving birth are ridiculously unequal. I doubt any changes they make will even touch on that.
I’m also mad that my lesbian Kassandra met a dude with a similar background to her’s and bonded through adventure to become good friends (I loved that scene where they’re drinking wine talking about Darius and toasting their friendship) and they took it away. Replaced it with heterosexual relationship instead. Gross. I’m just a little bit madder that any Kassandra, lesbian, bi, or straight, has no care in the world about being pregnant in a world where dogs licking sword wounds is considered top tier healing. Stop forgetting about biological realities. Or give me some mystical handwaving so she never had to gestate. Don’t write her like a man who only has to worry about aiming his spunk at the right spot and then he’s physically done with the process.
Remember when Aspasia walked into the room for the first time and nodded at Kassandra in a way that suggested the night before she’d given Kassandra the sex of her lifetime and knew it, and also Kassandra reacted as if that were exactly the case, but they’d never even fucking met before
“Let’s make this more than a moment.”
Phoibe lives AU where she lives on the Adrestia and Kassandra’s crew of buff lesbians are her moms.
They collectively teach her all their different specialized skills even though she’s never actually done the thing, like identifying the weaves of different fabrics or being able to make obscure herbal remedies
She gets good at shooting sharks underneath them. REALLY GOOD. Then Kassandra makes her go get the arrows back.
At some point, she meets Xenia and IDOLIZES her (Xenia lets her keep one item from her treasury after Phoibe is bold enough to try to steal it)
She learns ALL the sea shanties and belts them out at all hours of the day.
Kassandra will lay out with her at night and show her all the constellations and tell the stories behind them.
Barnabas turns into her weird uncle and she starts playing pranks on him (which only intensifies after he starts returning them. Kassandra finally puts an end to it when she puts her helmet on and there’s a raw egg inside)
She ends up with all this obscure knowledge in history from listening to Herodotus, then she starts dropping all these comments on everyone while they’re looking at her like ‘wtf’ (Herodotus is SO PROUD)
Phoibe looking for salvage with Barnabas and convincing each other there are sea monsters int he water
She starts getting crushes on the women to the point that there are hushed bets around who she’s going to go all moon eyed over next.
Phoibe being The Most Prepared when her period comes because all her moms are always looking out for her. Then they throw her a ‘you’re a woman now’ party which Barnabas and Herodotus are not invited to.
Myrrine meeting Phoibe and taking her under her wing. bRUSHING HER HAIR. Phoibe sitting on her lap while Myrrine talks about battle strategy.
Phoibe meets Alexios and immediately wants to arm wrestle him. Then she meets Stentor and is hugely unimpressed
PHOIBE BEING SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE WHO LOVE AND SUPPORT HER
Can we all just take a moment to thank @topkassandra for constantly giving us new ways to thirst

the face of a woman with 2 brain cells that finally found the person that is behind the cult that ruined her family and her only thought is “wow sexy woman”
Happy to help.
Retribution :: We’ll storm it together.
I can weather any storm.
“My first thought were to get you out of these clothes.”
“If that’s the first thought, I can’t wait to see how the second and third thoughts go.”
Hhhhh I just realized my Kassandra/Brasidas gifs are kinda fucked. I'll try to fix em guys
