- [8/29/14 8:49:42 PM] Nark Nark: AC au where they use bone ash from their ancestors to create weapons with power based on viking sword imbuning.
- [8/29/14 8:49:50 PM] bb: ..............
- [8/29/14 8:49:54 PM] bb: go on
- [8/29/14 8:50:33 PM] Nark Nark: where maybe they literally exist in the weapon???
- [8/29/14 8:50:43 PM] bb: like...
- [8/29/14 8:50:48 PM] bb: concious weapon?
- [8/29/14 8:50:50 PM] bb: or like
- [8/29/14 8:50:59 PM] bb: can change from human into weapon?
- [8/29/14 8:51:26 PM] Nark Nark: shrugs i dunno i was just thinking about
- [8/29/14 8:51:34 PM] Nark Nark: how vikings, as pagans, often worshipped their weapons
- [8/29/14 8:52:15 PM] bb: ouo
- [8/29/14 8:52:17 PM] Nark Nark: they created them with burned bone powders as a way to imbune the power of whatever the bones came from in it.
- [8/29/14 8:53:01 PM] Nark Nark: and many believed that their weapons grew in power with victories and kills
- [8/29/14 8:53:08 PM] bb: OuO
- [8/29/14 8:53:19 PM] bb: *whispers* imagine an Altair sword wielded by Malik
- [8/29/14 8:53:36 PM] bb: a blood thirsty sword
- [8/29/14 8:53:45 PM] bb: wielded by the King of Swords
- [8/29/14 8:53:47 PM] bb: askjgadskgsa
- [8/29/14 8:53:49 PM] Nark Nark: i had a thought maybe like
- [8/29/14 8:54:00 PM] Nark Nark: people were groomed to become weapons right?
- [8/29/14 8:54:09 PM] bb: //RAPID BREATHING
- [8/29/14 8:54:15 PM] bb: go on
- [8/29/14 8:54:22 PM] bb: ALSO MARK WE'RE DOING IT
- [8/29/14 8:54:24 PM] bb: MAKING AN AU
- [8/29/14 8:54:31 PM] bb: WHEN WE HAVEN'T FINISHED A SINGLE ONE
- [8/29/14 8:54:32 PM] bb: DJFGHJFGSW
- [8/29/14 8:55:02 PM] Nark Nark: so basically they're trained in all kinds of things different fighting techniques, strength, endurance
- [8/29/14 8:55:09 PM] bb: mhm mhm!!!
- [8/29/14 8:55:33 PM] Nark Nark: with the knowledge that they're going to be killed
- [8/29/14 8:55:46 PM] bb: oh man oh man
- [8/29/14 8:55:47 PM] Nark Nark: but at the same time it's like this huge thing because you're literally the best
- [8/29/14 8:55:56 PM] bb: and its a great honor
- [8/29/14 8:56:13 PM] bb: they're basically worshiped like gods in whatever town/city they're raised in
- [8/29/14 8:57:13 PM] Nark Nark: well in a way they kind of are, because they do become immortalized in the weapon as long as they are taken care of
- [8/29/14 8:57:20 PM] bb: yeap c:
- [8/29/14 8:57:24 PM] bb: fffff
- [8/29/14 8:57:41 PM] Nark Nark: and maybe they do kind of gain power and such when used to kill
- [8/29/14 8:57:53 PM] bb: mhm
- [8/29/14 8:58:02 PM] bb: they become more sentient maybe?
- [8/29/14 8:58:12 PM] bb: ahahaha I want Altair to be a sword so badly
- [8/29/14 8:58:32 PM] Nark Nark: what if
- [8/29/14 8:58:35 PM] bb: I want him to have been like /the/ sword back in the day
- [8/29/14 9:00:53 PM] Nark Nark: malik finds out that with enough blood altair may be able to resume a human form? But it takes so much time to do that and now there's just this immortal sword with his user who's literally gonna die any day.
- [8/29/14 9:01:31 PM] bb: so yes
- [8/29/14 9:01:32 PM] bb: that
- [8/29/14 9:01:35 PM] bb: but also
- [8/29/14 9:02:35 PM] bb: so my mind immediatly went to like, this is stuff that happened a long time ago. Like total pagan thing that 'uncivilized' people believed blah blah and its lost to 'modern' peoples (idk what time period 'modern' is though) that this shit was real as fuck.
- [8/29/14 9:03:00 PM] bb: and Altair was like /the/ sword back in the day. The one all the heros of old used, and not a few madmen and villains.
- [8/29/14 9:03:36 PM] Nark Nark: but like malik doesn't want altair to fall into disrepair.
- [8/29/14 9:03:42 PM] bb: wait wait
- [8/29/14 9:04:34 PM] bb: but Altair, and many of the imbued swords, become lost to history. Their significance gets lost as well as their physical selves. So like... Altair is, not with anyone. He's just like, in a smith's shed and he's this old sword no one uses because he's 'not in style' anymore and is 'too heavy' and has 'bad balance'.
- [8/29/14 9:05:11 PM] Nark Nark: but altair's just like
- [8/29/14 9:05:15 PM] bb: and then Malik comes along, cause Rauf's a smith apprentice or something and Malik's training to be a fighter or something and needs a sword and Rauf's master is like 'yeah you can have it' when Malik finds Altair
- [8/29/14 9:05:28 PM] Nark Nark: nah fuck these guys /PERFECT BALANCE FOR MALIK
- [8/29/14 9:05:29 PM] bb: cause its an old sword he can't even sell. He doesn't even remember where he got it
- [8/29/14 9:05:35 PM] bb: YEAH BASICALLY
- [8/29/14 9:05:44 PM] Nark Nark: tho ngl i had a thought that altair was literally trained and made for malik
- [8/29/14 9:05:51 PM] bb: and Malik's like 'this sword is so good though. Its so light, the balance is perfect'
- [8/29/14 9:06:13 PM] bb: I like that idea too but I'm a sucker for like... fate only catches up to you years down the line
- [8/29/14 9:06:37 PM] bb: maybe all the inbued swords are /made/ for someone. But sometimes that /someone/ hasn't been born yet.
- [8/29/14 9:07:10 PM] bb: and all the people who used Altair he just kinda let them because he didn't want to be forgotten
- [8/29/14 9:07:29 PM] Nark Nark: does altair have his fucking name inscribed
- [8/29/14 9:07:33 PM] bb: probably
- [8/29/14 9:07:37 PM] bb: along the blade
- [8/29/14 9:07:45 PM] bb: and on the other side is Malik's name
- [8/29/14 9:07:59 PM] bb: only not in a language Malik can read so he has no idea XD
- [8/29/14 9:08:37 PM] bb: but when Malik sees Altair's name he's like 'oh, Altair' and then '...how did I know that? o.O'
- [8/29/14 9:08:58 PM] Nark Nark: omfg
- [8/29/14 9:09:20 PM] Nark Nark: does that mean he has their names kind of tattooed in his human shape
- [8/29/14 9:09:28 PM] bb: //screams
- [8/29/14 9:09:29 PM] bb: YES
- [8/29/14 9:09:39 PM] bb: Altair is covered in fucking tattoos also
- [8/29/14 9:09:51 PM] bb: cause his hilt and scabbard are like... super ornate and amazing
- [8/29/14 9:10:03 PM] bb: but like they're so dirty and gritty no one has ever noticed
- [8/29/14 9:10:31 PM] bb: and there's also filigree designs on the sword blade itself
- [8/29/14 9:10:48 PM] Nark Nark: not in the sword
- [8/29/14 9:11:06 PM] Nark Nark: there's only the inlaid names at the base of the blade
- [8/29/14 9:11:11 PM] bb: okay
- [8/29/14 9:11:17 PM] Nark Nark: i think malik's name is in the handle
- [8/29/14 9:11:28 PM] Nark Nark: because having two sides inlaid is a structural weakness
- [8/29/14 9:11:33 PM] bb: tru
- [8/29/14 9:11:40 PM] Nark Nark: like altair looks like a strong, flexible blade
- [8/29/14 9:12:00 PM] bb: Malik's name could be like... worked into the hilt itself like in a really ornate way like some Arabic chaligraphy is
- [8/29/14 9:12:07 PM] Nark Nark: even though he's got the imbued power and such he's still an amazing, basically perfect blade
- [8/29/14 9:12:09 PM] bb: so like... Malik REALLY can't read it
- [8/29/14 9:12:24 PM] bb: meanwhile Altair's name is very like... simple and plain and clear
- [8/29/14 9:12:49 PM] Nark Nark: .... also just like swords are made before their best handler
- [8/29/14 9:12:59 PM] Nark Nark: there are names in history for swords not yet made.
- [8/29/14 9:13:17 PM] bb: ... sorry I...
- [8/29/14 9:13:19 PM] bb: wat?
- [8/29/14 9:13:23 PM] bb: esplain
- [8/29/14 9:13:27 PM] Nark Nark: cough desmond cough
- [8/29/14 9:13:30 PM] Nark Nark: but that's for the future
- [8/29/14 9:13:32 PM] bb: oh
- [8/29/14 9:13:41 PM] bb: so like
- [8/29/14 9:13:49 PM] bb: //squints
- [8/29/14 9:14:02 PM] bb: Lucy is totally Desmond's destined sword wielder
- [8/29/14 9:14:14 PM] bb: tho does the practice come back?
- [8/29/14 9:14:27 PM] bb: fuck you mark
- [8/29/14 9:14:30 PM] bb: making this good AU
- [8/29/14 9:14:37 PM] Nark Nark: i think it's considered pretty fucked up
- [8/29/14 9:14:44 PM] Nark Nark: but um
- [8/29/14 9:14:46 PM] bb: I know
- [8/29/14 9:14:47 PM] Nark Nark: how fucked up are the assassins
- [8/29/14 9:14:47 PM] bb: I love it
- [8/29/14 9:14:49 PM] Nark Nark: pretty fucked up
- [8/29/14 9:14:55 PM] bb: :D
- [8/29/14 9:15:12 PM] Nark Nark: "I DON'T WANNA BE A SWORD DAD WAH"
- [8/29/14 9:15:24 PM] bb: 'YOU'RE GONNA BE A SWORD AND UR GONNA LIKE IT >:C'
- [8/29/14 9:15:42 PM] bb: so do the Assassins still to the practice of imbuing>?
- [8/29/14 9:15:44 PM] bb: OOOO
- [8/29/14 9:15:54 PM] bb: maybe Desmond exists in the same time as Malik
- [8/29/14 9:16:28 PM] bb: and Desmond meets Malik after he finds Altair?
- [8/29/14 9:16:54 PM] bb: is Malik an Assassin you think?
- [8/29/14 9:17:17 PM] Nark Nark: idk it's kind of mixing the original idea i had
- [8/29/14 9:17:42 PM] bb: that bad?
- [8/29/14 9:17:54 PM] Nark Nark: well i don't know if it'd work
- [8/29/14 9:18:15 PM] bb: mmmmm
- [8/29/14 9:18:16 PM] bb: true
- [8/29/14 9:18:31 PM] Nark Nark: because desmond's supposed to be a future weapon, maybe not as far in the future as game canon
- [8/29/14 9:18:48 PM] bb: could be
- [8/29/14 9:19:00 PM] bb: its in the decline of the practice
- [8/29/14 9:19:11 PM] bb: Altair still gets lost and Malik finds him
- [8/29/14 9:19:24 PM] bb: Desmond is one of the last people who's supposed to be turned into a sword
- [8/29/14 9:19:26 PM] Nark Nark: who knows maybe weapons can extend lifespans
- [8/29/14 9:19:36 PM] bb: they're fucking magic swords
- [8/29/14 9:19:39 PM] Nark Nark: they are
- [8/29/14 9:19:39 PM] bb: why couldn't they?
- [8/29/14 9:21:47 PM] Nark Nark: maybe that's why they stopped kind of doing it
- [8/29/14 9:22:11 PM] bb: lols suddenly all these bonded weapons and humans
- [8/29/14 9:22:14 PM] bb: living forever
- [8/29/14 9:22:14 PM] bb: OMG
- [8/29/14 9:22:18 PM] Nark Nark: well not all of them
- [8/29/14 9:22:26 PM] Nark Nark: like there are probably a bunch of counterfeits
- [8/29/14 9:22:31 PM] bb: that'd be why people would try and kill the users of the swords
- [8/29/14 9:22:42 PM] bb: and yeah obviously
- [8/29/14 9:22:54 PM] Nark Nark: but it's kind of like
- [8/29/14 9:23:47 PM] Nark Nark: you'd have to be a wielder with an imbued weapon to actually take another one out
- [8/29/14 9:23:59 PM] bb: or have a gun
- [8/29/14 9:24:15 PM] bb: Indiana Jones style
- [8/29/14 9:24:53 PM] bb: do imbued swords like... get more heavy or like... duller, when their wielder is murdered you think?
- [8/29/14 9:25:00 PM] bb: like out of grief
- [8/29/14 9:25:52 PM] Nark Nark: yeah
- [8/29/14 9:26:23 PM] Nark Nark: they are also kind of devilswords though because i think they get the energy or power or whatever from souls, not just like blood
- [8/29/14 9:26:47 PM] bb: go on
- [8/29/14 9:26:50 PM] Nark Nark: when people figure that out it's like
- [8/29/14 9:26:56 PM] Nark Nark: who the fuck made you the grim reaper
- [8/29/14 9:27:00 PM] Nark Nark: or
- [8/29/14 9:27:11 PM] Nark Nark: wtf they aren't going to whatever happens after
- [8/29/14 9:27:18 PM] Nark Nark: who the fuck gave you the right
- [8/29/14 9:27:23 PM] bb: oooo
- [8/29/14 9:27:34 PM] bb: can the souls make the weapon human again?
- [8/29/14 9:28:00 PM] bb: lols I realized. Malik and Altair were probably raised together and were friends and that's how they knew Malik was Altair's wielder
- [8/29/14 9:28:15 PM] bb: and Malik carries his dead friend's body and soul around on his belt
- [8/29/14 9:28:24 PM] Nark Nark: if it's the made for malik
- [8/29/14 9:28:40 PM] bb: well yeah its Altair, Altair is Malik's sword
- [8/29/14 9:28:40 PM] Nark Nark: while he;s alive i mean
- [8/29/14 9:28:46 PM] Nark Nark: not like before he was alive
- [8/29/14 9:28:59 PM] Nark Nark: like i had a thought originally
- [8/29/14 9:28:59 PM] bb: Mark 'its its the made for malik'
- [8/29/14 9:29:02 PM] bb: is not a sentence
- [8/29/14 9:29:07 PM] bb: if its*
- [8/29/14 9:29:22 PM] Nark Nark: erase the or add one
- [8/29/14 9:29:36 PM] Nark Nark: but i'm trying to say uh
- [8/29/14 9:29:43 PM] Nark Nark: the original thought was like
- [8/29/14 9:29:53 PM] Nark Nark: they're trained from basically since they can walk
- [8/29/14 9:30:47 PM] Nark Nark: until they're 21, and that's when they're killed, defleshed, and have their bones dried, burned, and forged into iron to create steel for a weapon.
- [8/29/14 9:31:00 PM] bb: mhm
- [8/29/14 9:31:48 PM] Nark Nark: so if he's made during malik's lifetime, not before, then yes, that's literally how it is
- [8/29/14 9:32:08 PM] bb: well idk how you wanna do it if Malik's just hella old
- [8/29/14 9:32:17 PM] bb: or if he's born in Desmond's time and find Altair later
- [8/29/14 9:32:46 PM] Nark Nark: well if he's made during malik's lifetime, he has to build up altair's power
- [8/29/14 9:32:57 PM] Nark Nark: if malik finds altair later, altair already has /some/
- [8/29/14 9:33:22 PM] bb: has some what?
- [8/29/14 9:33:33 PM] Nark Nark: some power from those he's been used to kill
- [8/29/14 9:33:38 PM] bb: ah
- [8/29/14 9:33:43 PM] bb: yeah clearly
- [8/29/14 9:33:52 PM] bb: cause back in the day he was a badass sword
- [8/29/14 9:34:06 PM] bb: even if he was never quite /right/ for the people who used him
- [8/29/14 9:36:53 PM] Nark Nark: yeeeep
- [8/29/14 9:37:11 PM] Nark Nark: but i thiiiink i like
- [8/29/14 9:37:12 PM] bb: so Malik finds Altair like I said and like 'wow this sword is amazing!'
- [8/29/14 9:37:42 PM] Nark Nark: altair being made before, malik finding him, but it's still not desmond's time, and doesnt' really need to ever be desmond's time
- [8/29/14 9:38:01 PM] bb: so Des is being trained to be made into a weapon
- [8/29/14 9:38:04 PM] bb: but...?????
- [8/29/14 9:38:20 PM] Nark Nark: he doesn't wanna man
- [8/29/14 9:38:29 PM] bb: well no shit
- [8/29/14 9:38:37 PM] bb: most of his predesessors did so gladly
- [8/29/14 9:38:43 PM] bb: cause they were treated like fucking gods
- [8/29/14 9:38:50 PM] bb: Desmond is treated like a /tool/
- [8/29/14 9:39:08 PM] Nark Nark: also this literally mean
- [8/29/14 9:39:09 PM] Nark Nark: s
- [8/29/14 9:39:11 PM] Nark Nark: somewhere along the line
- [8/29/14 9:39:43 PM] Nark Nark: weapon altair took on his human shape, met maria and fucked her.
- [8/29/14 9:39:50 PM] bb: ... why?
- [8/29/14 9:40:03 PM] bb: Desmond and Altair don't have to be related >_>
- [8/29/14 9:40:11 PM] Nark Nark: i guess not then
- [8/29/14 9:40:56 PM] bb: like maybe he has gone human form a few times
- [8/29/14 9:41:03 PM] bb: but I can see him being really pissed about it
- [8/29/14 9:41:03 PM] bb: like
- [8/29/14 9:41:17 PM] bb: 'YOU AREN'T MY WIELDER HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME TAKE THIS SHAPE >C'
- [8/29/14 9:41:35 PM] Nark Nark: i dont think he can be made to
- [8/29/14 9:41:47 PM] Nark Nark: well maybe but i'd think it's up to him
- [8/29/14 9:42:08 PM] bb: I think once he has enough energy stored up he kinda like... has to to burn some off
- [8/29/14 9:42:27 PM] bb: otherwise he starts to dull or become corrupt or something
- [8/29/14 9:42:40 PM] bb: and quickest way to burn off that energy is to change shape
- [8/29/14 9:42:59 PM] Nark Nark: 'ohp gauge is full now i'm dtf'
- [8/29/14 9:43:04 PM] bb: XD
- [8/29/14 9:43:32 PM] bb: though blades are indiscriminant about what blood they drink so you can like... drop a blade in a vat of animal blood and come back a few hours later to a naked man or woman screaming at you
- [8/29/14 9:43:36 PM] bb: XD
- [8/29/14 9:44:00 PM] bb: cause they're told when they're killed that their human forms are sacred
- [8/29/14 9:44:25 PM] bb: which most of them take to mean 'only for my wielder'
- [8/29/14 9:45:03 PM] Nark Nark: tho it isn't like they're squishy
- [8/29/14 9:45:17 PM] Nark Nark: well i mean they are but like
- [8/29/14 9:45:22 PM] bb: they're fucking ripped
- [8/29/14 9:45:40 PM] Nark Nark: you're not going to break their skin and make a weapon's human form bleed
- [8/29/14 9:45:51 PM] bb: nope
- [8/29/14 9:45:59 PM] Nark Nark: like they probably seem basically human but literally
- [8/29/14 9:46:00 PM] bb: they're still kinda... made of steel
- [8/29/14 9:46:05 PM] Nark Nark: you need a steel cutter
- [8/29/14 9:46:12 PM] bb: and they don't eat
- [8/29/14 9:46:24 PM] bb: cause they aren't alive
- [8/29/14 9:46:42 PM] bb: breathing is something the human body does on auto pilot so they breathe but it doesn't... do anything
- [8/29/14 9:46:45 PM] bb: they can't suffocate
- [8/29/14 9:46:53 PM] bb: ........ Altair gives awesome head AHAHAHAHAH
- [8/29/14 9:46:59 PM] Nark Nark: however they can't use themselves like they can't partially change back
- [8/29/14 9:47:14 PM] bb: how do they change back then?
- [8/29/14 9:47:37 PM] Nark Nark: after they burn off whatever excess
- [8/29/14 9:49:00 PM] Nark Nark: well i'm pretty sure they can hold onto the form
- [8/29/14 9:49:24 PM] Nark Nark: but they're burning more energy than necessary
- [8/29/14 9:53:05 PM] Nark Nark: ... maybe at some point uh
- [8/29/14 9:53:27 PM] Nark Nark: weapons can take care of themselves, like
- [8/29/14 9:53:50 PM] Nark Nark: getting their own energy and souls and stuff
- [8/29/14 9:56:07 PM] bb: eeeeeh
- [8/29/14 9:56:10 PM] bb: idk
- [8/29/14 9:56:14 PM] bb: seems kinda too easy
- [8/29/14 9:57:09 PM] Nark Nark: well after they're strong enough
- [8/29/14 9:57:27 PM] Nark Nark: like not right off, it'd take a lot of built up power
- [8/29/14 9:57:42 PM] Nark Nark: like maybe they literally do become godlike
- [8/29/14 9:58:33 PM] bb: well they're basically immortal
- [8/29/14 9:59:02 PM] bb: still I can see a blade not wanting to be human around anyone but their wielder
- [8/29/14 9:59:22 PM] bb: cause blade and swordsmen have a special bond
- [8/29/14 10:00:17 PM] Nark Nark: well yeah
- [8/29/14 10:01:05 PM] Nark Nark: i also suppose they kind of picked more obedient people (probably why people were nervous about altair being used)
- [8/29/14 10:01:22 PM] bb: what?
- [8/29/14 10:01:47 PM] Nark Nark: it's probably possible for a weapon to abuse their own power you know
- [8/29/14 10:02:08 PM] bb: //oh/
- [8/29/14 10:03:34 PM] Nark Nark: i need to go get some fooood
- [8/29/14 10:03:39 PM] bb: lols okay
- [8/29/14 10:22:30 PM] Nark Nark: food
- [8/29/14 10:29:06 PM] Nark Nark: omg
- [8/29/14 10:29:11 PM] Nark Nark: the term swashbuckling
- [8/29/14 10:29:14 PM] Nark Nark: came from the dumbest thing
- [8/29/14 10:29:16 PM] Nark Nark: basically
- [8/29/14 10:29:40 PM] Nark Nark: there was a form of dueling where you use a tiny metal shield, a buckler, to deflect blows
- [8/29/14 10:30:46 PM] Nark Nark: but basically people who were savvy and good at that dueling combat, wore their bucklers and swords on their hip, and the two clanged and made a lot of noise while they walked/swaggered/bragged like chuffy dicks. that's where 'swashbuckling' came from
- [8/29/14 10:31:09 PM] bb: omg
- [8/29/14 10:31:15 PM] bb: that's such a good etimology
- [8/29/14 10:33:07 PM] Nark Nark: want some more etimology?
- [8/29/14 10:33:08 PM] Nark Nark: spread eagle
- [8/29/14 10:34:08 PM] Nark Nark: was a pagan ritualistic torture of a specified enemy, wherein they were cut open, ribs split, and their lungs laid out on the ground like the wings of an eagle while they were still breathing to be eaten by crows
- [8/29/14 10:34:57 PM] bb: that's.... so coooooool
- [8/29/14 10:37:31 PM] bb: ahg
- [8/29/14 10:37:34 PM] bb: back to swords
- [8/29/14 10:37:42 PM] bb: I need to be distracted cause I'm so fucking mad rn
- [8/29/14 10:42:33 PM] Nark Nark: i'm just watching a bunch of greater history shows
- [8/29/14 10:43:00 PM] bb: mark
- [8/29/14 10:43:11 PM] Nark Nark: like that's where i'm getting it all from xD
- [8/29/14 10:43:16 PM] bb: pffft
- [8/29/14 10:43:19 PM] bb: fair enough I guess
- [8/29/14 10:43:29 PM] Nark Nark: the latest stuff is from a shield show
- [8/29/14 10:44:16 PM] Nark Nark: have you seen the ulfberht documentary?
- [8/29/14 10:44:28 PM] bb: no
- [8/29/14 10:45:07 PM] Nark Nark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKvRHaJ2w6w&list=UUrPyMDvVQOF5QaX3fHiLOqA
- [8/29/14 10:45:37 PM] Nark Nark: though i think altair was forged in damascus
- [8/29/14 10:45:46 PM] bb: well yeah
- [8/29/14 10:45:55 PM] Nark Nark: so he'd be more like a watered steel, but he's as flexible as ulfberht
- [8/29/14 10:46:26 PM] bb: mhm
- [8/29/14 10:48:10 PM] Nark Nark: .............. and probably flexible anyway /shot
- [8/29/14 10:48:16 PM] bb: lololols
- [8/29/14 10:48:32 PM] bb: Malik is really confused that human Altair is so... limber
- [8/29/14 10:49:46 PM] Nark Nark: swords doing yoga
- [8/29/14 10:49:47 PM] Nark Nark: ???
- [8/29/14 10:49:52 PM] bb: AHAHAHAHA
- [8/29/14 10:49:53 PM] bb: yes
- [8/29/14 10:50:01 PM] bb: its part of their training
- [8/29/14 10:50:23 PM] bb: human Altair does it cause it relaxes him
- [8/29/14 10:51:33 PM] bb: I want Altair to be
- [8/29/14 10:51:37 PM] bb: the short sword he uses in AC1
- [8/29/14 10:51:49 PM] bb: cause he's so much more...brutal with it
- [8/29/14 10:52:13 PM] Nark Nark: omg
- [8/29/14 10:52:57 PM] bb: ouo
- [8/29/14 10:53:07 PM] Nark Nark: maybe...
- [8/29/14 10:53:39 PM] Nark Nark: he kind of changes shape somtimes like the blade form
- [8/29/14 10:53:44 PM] bb: ooooooo
- [8/29/14 10:54:03 PM] Nark Nark: kind of like to suit the wielder but like kinda want him to be a SWORD when malik finds him
- [8/29/14 10:54:12 PM] bb: yeah
- [8/29/14 10:54:19 PM] bb: like big proper sword
- [8/29/14 10:54:33 PM] bb: and Malik's training with those kinds of swords
- [8/29/14 10:54:41 PM] Nark Nark: sometimes he'll be the short blade, but malik is kind of... you know the king of the sword
- [8/29/14 10:54:47 PM] bb: but Altair's like '...you know, you'd probably fight better with this'
- [8/29/14 10:54:53 PM] bb: and like 'BAM short sword'
- [8/29/14 10:57:18 PM] Nark Nark: i think
- [8/29/14 10:57:24 PM] Nark Nark: rashid
- [8/29/14 10:57:34 PM] Nark Nark: might have been altair's first wielder
- [8/29/14 10:57:42 PM] bb: o3o
- [8/29/14 10:57:52 PM] bb: but not his true wielder
- [8/29/14 10:57:58 PM] Nark Nark: grooms up his perfect little sword
- [8/29/14 10:58:05 PM] bb: omg
- [8/29/14 10:58:10 PM] bb: grooms Altair to a T
- [8/29/14 10:58:15 PM] bb: then Altair's made into a sword and
- [8/29/14 10:58:18 PM] bb: LOLS RASHID
- [8/29/14 10:58:23 PM] bb: YOU AREN'T THE ACTUAL ONE
- [8/29/14 10:58:35 PM] bb: he's so fucking mad cause yes Altair feels good in his hand
- [8/29/14 10:58:41 PM] bb: but it's not /perfect/
- [8/29/14 10:58:52 PM] Nark Nark: well he probably seems p perfect
- [8/29/14 10:59:01 PM] bb: at first yeah
- [8/29/14 10:59:10 PM] Nark Nark: and altair's not noping him
- [8/29/14 10:59:19 PM] bb: but the more Rashid uses him the more he realizes... Altair's balance is off
- [8/29/14 10:59:54 PM] Nark Nark: he's still way better than even the best balanced weapons in his contemporary though
- [8/29/14 11:00:13 PM] bb: oh god yeah
- [8/29/14 11:00:37 PM] bb: but Rashid is so mad cause like
- [8/29/14 11:00:43 PM] bb: he trained for years himself
- [8/29/14 11:00:50 PM] bb: to be worthy of wielding Altair
- [8/29/14 11:01:09 PM] bb: lols so in my headcanon Altair is actually Rashid's grandson
- [8/29/14 11:01:18 PM] bb: what if Altair... actually is his grandson
- [8/29/14 11:01:24 PM] Nark Nark: well when he realizes he's not the one wielder
- [8/29/14 11:01:47 PM] Nark Nark: because he's still getting older, he's not quite partaking in the power altair is building
- [8/29/14 11:01:51 PM] bb: so then he realized he sacrified his own grandson for nothing
- [8/29/14 11:03:46 PM] bb: he's so mad about it
- [8/29/14 11:04:21 PM] Nark Nark: so would he be like
- [8/29/14 11:04:48 PM] Nark Nark: gonna... put this somewhere because no one else deserves to use him if i can't use him or
- [8/29/14 11:05:06 PM] bb: he could do that
- [8/29/14 11:05:13 PM] bb: but someone would steal Altair
- [8/29/14 11:05:21 PM] bb: cause he's a bound blade
- [8/29/14 11:07:02 PM] Nark Nark: .... well he's got a vault idk is rashid vindictive about the whole thing
- [8/29/14 11:07:13 PM] bb: I think he's mad
- [8/29/14 11:07:17 PM] bb: but like
- [8/29/14 11:07:25 PM] bb: is Altair is grandson or not?
- [8/29/14 11:07:33 PM] bb: cause if so I don't think he'd be that vindictive
- [8/29/14 11:07:42 PM] bb: he'd want Altair to find his true wielder
- [8/29/14 11:08:08 PM] Nark Nark: i guess they can be related
- [8/29/14 11:08:44 PM] bb: cause if they weren't yeah Rashid would be full on 'if I can't have him no one can'
- [8/29/14 11:09:51 PM] Nark Nark: though maybe it's the whole 'try all these people' thing that makes altair super unbalanced
- [8/29/14 11:09:54 PM] Nark Nark: like he's just like
- [8/29/14 11:10:05 PM] Nark Nark: ugh fuck this noise so many grabby hands
- [8/29/14 11:10:39 PM] bb: ??
- [8/29/14 11:11:01 PM] Nark Nark: well come on
- [8/29/14 11:11:04 PM] Nark Nark: he's a bound sword
- [8/29/14 11:11:09 PM] Nark Nark: everyone's gonna wanna try their luck
- [8/29/14 11:11:12 PM] Nark Nark: sword in the stone style
- [8/29/14 11:11:14 PM] bb: tru
- [8/29/14 11:11:21 PM] Nark Nark: and like altair's not just a dumb sword
- [8/29/14 11:11:27 PM] bb: though Malik's name is on Altair
- [8/29/14 11:11:33 PM] Nark Nark: he's a human bound to the blade
- [8/29/14 11:11:33 PM] bb: its not like they don't know?
- [8/29/14 11:11:38 PM] bb: or do they not know?
- [8/29/14 11:11:46 PM] bb: like someone has to /make/ Altair into a sword
- [8/29/14 11:11:50 PM] Nark Nark: well i think his name begins to appear
- [8/29/14 11:12:03 PM] Nark Nark: he's like 'guys you are so fucking dumb find me this'
- [8/29/14 11:12:14 PM] Nark Nark: 'STOP PICKING ME UP FIND ME THIS NAME'
- [8/29/14 11:12:19 PM] Nark Nark: 'FUUUUCK'
- [8/29/14 11:12:39 PM] bb: lols
- [8/29/14 11:12:44 PM] Nark Nark: but The Malik doesn't exist yet
- [8/29/14 11:12:45 PM] bb: 'I WANT THIS ONE NOT YOU ASSHOLES'
- [8/29/14 11:13:00 PM] bb: yeah but he still gets passed around to like... dozens of Maliks
- [8/29/14 11:13:19 PM] bb: and he's just 'no no no nO NO! You idiots are you blind? That isn't MY MalIK >CCCC'
- [8/29/14 11:13:58 PM] Nark Nark: He's just like .... /packs on 50 invisible pounds
- [8/29/14 11:14:11 PM] Nark Nark: good drop me i hate you already
- [8/29/14 11:14:16 PM] bb: no one can lift him
- [8/29/14 11:14:35 PM] bb: eventually he does let /other/ people use him though
- [8/29/14 11:14:44 PM] bb: mainly cause he's mad he can't find Malik
- [8/29/14 11:14:55 PM] Nark Nark: well that and he's hungry
- [8/29/14 11:14:58 PM] bb: yes
- [8/29/14 11:15:09 PM] bb: all bound blades need to drink/eat
- [8/29/14 11:15:20 PM] bb: they must be used or the magic leaves them
- [8/29/14 11:15:25 PM] bb: or...
- [8/29/14 11:15:30 PM] Nark Nark: well they need energy
- [8/29/14 11:15:33 PM] bb: yeah
- [8/29/14 11:15:43 PM] Nark Nark: i think they can probably be reawakened
- [8/29/14 11:16:09 PM] Nark Nark: but altair totally knows he could be smelted down if something goes badly or wrong
- [8/29/14 11:16:37 PM] bb: yeah
- [8/29/14 11:16:56 PM] bb: but whenever someone picks him up he usually just starts like... projecting 'put me down!'
- [8/29/14 11:17:11 PM] bb: especially at people who'd want to melt him down
- [8/29/14 11:18:29 PM] Nark Nark: he doesn't let them move him. but it isn't like he's totally unaware that less and less people know what he is or how he is important
- [8/29/14 11:19:08 PM] bb: yeah :c
- [8/29/14 11:19:10 PM] bb: poor bby
- [8/29/14 11:19:12 PM] Nark Nark: it could be that rashid gives him to rauf like 'find my grandson's wielder'
- [8/29/14 11:19:29 PM] Nark Nark: my mom just scared me
- [8/29/14 11:19:34 PM] Nark Nark: i literally yelled 'FUUUUCK'
- [8/29/14 11:19:38 PM] bb: XD
- [8/29/14 11:19:52 PM] bb: and Rauf keeps him in his forge and like... no one touches the sword even after the old master dies?
- [8/29/14 11:20:16 PM] bb: till Malik comes around and needs a sword but is dead broke and someone is like 'yeah you can have one from the back'
- [8/29/14 11:20:51 PM] Nark Nark: Rauf doesn't deem anyone worthy
- [8/29/14 11:21:01 PM] bb: god no
- [8/29/14 11:21:08 PM] bb: but Rauf isn't immortal
- [8/29/14 11:21:08 PM] Nark Nark: and he kind of forgets to tell his predecessors
- [8/29/14 11:21:12 PM] bb: yeah XD
- [8/29/14 11:21:23 PM] Nark Nark: on his deathbed he's like
- [8/29/14 11:21:23 PM] bb: they just know 'don't do anything to this sword'
- [8/29/14 11:21:31 PM] Nark Nark: SHIT I FUCKED UP
- [8/29/14 11:21:33 PM] bb: lols
- [8/29/14 11:21:46 PM] Nark Nark: I REMEMBERED THE THING I FORGOT TO TELL THAT IDIOT SON OF MINE
- [8/29/14 11:21:53 PM] Nark Nark: but he dead
- [8/29/14 11:21:59 PM] bb: I think his son knows not to fuck with that sword
- [8/29/14 11:22:07 PM] bb: cause his father revered it
- [8/29/14 11:22:15 PM] Nark Nark: i know but he was probably gonna explain why he had it there for so long
- [8/29/14 11:22:26 PM] bb: yeah and didn't cause he turned old
- [8/29/14 11:22:26 PM] Nark Nark: what it is, etc
- [8/29/14 11:22:34 PM] bb: lols for a while its a show sword
- [8/29/14 11:22:44 PM] bb: like Altair just hangs on the wall looking impressive
- [8/29/14 11:22:49 PM] Nark Nark: ..........................
- [8/29/14 11:22:54 PM] Nark Nark: what if rauf forged him
- [8/29/14 11:22:56 PM] Nark Nark: or rauf's father
- [8/29/14 11:22:58 PM] bb: //SCREAMS
- [8/29/14 11:22:59 PM] bb: YES
- [8/29/14 11:23:24 PM] bb: then his sword shape falls out of style so they take him down but everyone is like 'no don't melt it down it was important to the family'
- [8/29/14 11:23:36 PM] bb: then that gets forgotten too and eventually Altair just... gets forgotten
- [8/29/14 11:27:02 PM] Nark Nark: p much
- [8/29/14 11:27:24 PM] bb: so we know what happens to Malik and Altair
- [8/29/14 11:27:28 PM] bb: but where's Des come in?
- [8/29/14 11:28:03 PM] Nark Nark: he doesn't need to
- [8/29/14 11:28:10 PM] Nark Nark: unless altair in all his godliness is like
- [8/29/14 11:28:27 PM] Nark Nark: 'i know about another weapon'
- [8/29/14 11:28:36 PM] bb: eeeeh I don't think so
- [8/29/14 11:29:26 PM] Nark Nark: well first of all fuck the space bitches
- [8/29/14 11:29:32 PM] Nark Nark: i don't want them in this thing >:C
- [8/29/14 11:29:45 PM] Nark Nark: fuck i just
- [8/29/14 11:29:54 PM] Nark Nark: ezio
- [8/29/14 11:30:07 PM] Nark Nark: flamboyant rapier
- [8/29/14 11:30:17 PM] bb: ahahaahahah
- [8/29/14 11:30:23 PM] bb: and yes agree, no proeathans
- [8/29/14 11:33:26 PM] Nark Nark: .... i think they kind of do literally become gods
- [8/29/14 11:33:43 PM] Nark Nark: and gain knowledge and other things beyond the human mortal realm
- [8/29/14 11:34:01 PM] bb: well they do a lot of thinking
- [8/29/14 11:34:06 PM] bb: so they kinda reach nirvana
- [8/29/14 11:34:16 PM] bb: also they consume the life force of those they kill
- [8/29/14 11:34:24 PM] bb: so I can totes see them becoming gods
- [8/29/14 11:35:56 PM] Nark Nark: so i'm pretty sure they're aware of basically every other imbued weapon
- [8/29/14 11:36:07 PM] bb: yeah I can see that
- [8/29/14 11:36:11 PM] bb: since they are gods
- [8/29/14 11:36:20 PM] bb: lols
- [8/29/14 11:36:39 PM] bb: bound blades are considered 'weapons of gods' as in only gods or demi gods can wield them
- [8/29/14 11:36:48 PM] bb: like that's the legend in modern times
- [8/29/14 11:36:55 PM] bb: but during the time Altair was forged
- [8/29/14 11:37:17 PM] bb: everyone knows that the /blades/ are the gods and they turn mortal men /into/ gods as well
- [8/29/14 11:38:33 PM] Nark Nark: and this is why the templars are like
- [8/29/14 11:38:34 PM] Nark Nark: fuck no
- [8/29/14 11:39:03 PM] bb: and do their best to stomp out the practice of bound blades
- [8/29/14 11:39:24 PM] bb: and melt down any that they find that are 'uncopperative' and won't be used
- [8/29/14 11:39:50 PM] Nark Nark: in the beginning it's more indiscriminate destruction of them
- [8/29/14 11:39:55 PM] Nark Nark: because you know there's
- [8/29/14 11:40:01 PM] Nark Nark: 'one true god' lah
- [8/29/14 11:40:07 PM] bb: ye
- [8/29/14 11:40:11 PM] Nark Nark: blah*
- [8/29/14 11:40:35 PM] Nark Nark: but some templars use these weapons later on
- [8/29/14 11:40:42 PM] bb: mhm
- [8/29/14 11:42:21 PM] Nark Nark: i think i want to keep desmond in a more contemporary time period
- [8/29/14 11:42:38 PM] bb: fair enough
- [8/29/14 11:44:09 PM] Nark Nark: I'm not sure if i want to really include the whole templar assassin thing right off, not sure. but i do know that
- [8/29/14 11:45:10 PM] Nark Nark: in desmond's time, by then it's kind of out of practice because it's inhumane but maybe
- [8/29/14 11:45:26 PM] Nark Nark: there's like... research into it?
- [8/29/14 11:45:35 PM] bb: go on
- [8/29/14 11:48:36 PM] Nark Nark: well more like the templars and assassins working together mostly... and they uncover some shit that's alluding to a contemporary human, and they spend a lot of time and resources into pinpointing names and dates. turns out desmond's their match and now guinnea pig and they want to recreate it, inhumane practice and all.
- [8/29/14 11:49:02 PM] bb: zbfcsdg
- [8/29/14 11:49:10 PM] bb: so they train him from diapers?
- [8/29/14 11:49:14 PM] bb: to be a weapon
- [8/29/14 11:49:19 PM] bb: does he know?
- [8/29/14 11:50:07 PM] Nark Nark: prrrrrobably not
- [8/29/14 11:50:51 PM] Nark Nark: if altair and malik are around he might, but i think they avoid all this crap
- [8/29/14 11:51:04 PM] bb: oh yeah\
- [8/29/14 11:51:11 PM] Nark Nark: though i can kind of see altair like 'omg wtf are they fucking doing'
- [8/29/14 11:51:26 PM] bb: 'DISRESPECTFUL!!!!!'
- [8/29/14 11:51:45 PM] bb: also in contemporary times most bound blades take the forms of knives
- [8/29/14 11:51:53 PM] bb: since swords are out of fashion
- [8/29/14 11:53:03 PM] Nark Nark: idunno out of some weird shit he might end up being forged into a sword. doesn't mean he'll stay as one
- [8/29/14 11:53:53 PM] bb: so yo know how I said Lucy is totes Des' wielder
- [8/29/14 11:54:01 PM] bb: they make Desmond into this huge like
- [8/29/14 11:54:05 PM] bb: bastard sword
- [8/29/14 11:54:16 PM] bb: Lucy's barely bigger than the sword
- [8/29/14 11:54:31 PM] bb: cause Des totally should get forged into a sword
- [8/29/14 11:55:15 PM] Nark Nark: des is cranky sometimes he doesn't even let lucy pick him up
