idle thought #666

This will be...a long time in the future. But. One of the reasons I definitely ship Shaun and Desmond is, well, first tsundere characters are, like, my jam, but. In AC3 specifically Shaun mellowed. A lot. Still snarky, but he softened a lot and actually made time for Desmond and was quietly supportive about Bill.
The moment I knew The Secret Histories wasn’t going to stay 100% gen was when Shaun got really soft to Desmond, and Desmond was doing it back with a little teasing. (I probably should’ve known before, maybe when Desmond was having his panic attack and probably when Desmond was thinking ‘you know what sounds nice being back in London with Shaun buying me a sandwich’, but, uh, I can be dense about crushes in real life too, so.)
