So there was a drabble series I was doing based on a song (I was going to start a meme), and I may or may not ever get around to posting it, but this was one of the drabbles.

The song is "Pictures of You" by The Last Goodnight, and the line is "There is a title we can't win." Summary is "Crack modern college-ish AU, were Malik and Altair almost confess through an MMORPG"

The drabble is a modern AU where the assassin boys are either in collage or have graduated already, and know each other in an online game. One of the most prominent features of this AU is the fact that Edward is around 40-ish, and Connor and Haytham are adoptive siblings. But other than that, mostly everyone's in their 20's-30's, and this is just basically pure crack I wanted to post LOL Also, a lot of this is in chat format, which shouldn't be new if you've read one of my other Homestuck one shots lol

"Not again!" Altair yelled into the mic, dramatically reclining in his chair by pulling his knees to his chest and covering his face. He jerked the monitor with the movement, and a small curse flowed from his lips before he fixed it, remaining in the same knees-tucked-in position afterwards. Malik and Khadar chuckled on the other end, while Altair typed away into the party chatlog.

mastaassassinz24: gfdi guys we needa betta way ta do dis

gdinovice: obviously.

whosilmentorenow: what do you suggest then?

Revolutionary: I think we should perhaps go on the offensive.

piratekingNO1: like, more on the offensive.

Revolutionary: Yes.

Altair snickered into the mic. "What do you think, Malili? All out skill set?"

"I've got the wrong gear. I'd do nothing haha." Malik laughed through the mic. "And don't call me Malili."

khadar756491: maybe we could divide and conquer? split into groups and regroup at the boss.

historianindahouse: That typically works. What do you guys say?

BleedigEffectEagle: we shd probly stick in groups of 3-4

khadar756491: well this isn't awkward.

gdinovice: why don't we just pretend this never happened?

Red text flashed across the screen- "BleedingEffectEagle has been killed by historianindahouse."- quickly followed by the blue text of historianindahouse taking all of BleedingEffectEagle's dropped equipment, and finally, "historianindahouse has logged off." in yellow.

Altair slammed his hand down on the table hard enough to make Khadar yelp on the other end of the mic. "HAHAHA I get the feeling he's killing him out of game to!"

Revolutionary: What

Altair leaned forward, his knees pressed to his chest, his hands hovering over the keys. Malik was silent on the other end.

piratekingNO1: so now that we're out of a party, any other confessions you want to throw out there?

Revolutionary: My last name is Kenway.

piratekingNO1: and don't even make a ship pun khadar I know what you're thinking.

"God damn it Malik!" Altair laughed into the mic. All he could hear on the other end was Malik's hysterical laughter. "Dude I feel kinda bad for him."

piratekingNO1: you're not denying it.

piratekingNO1: i'm kinda scared now.

"Okay wait troll the shit out of him. Make some stupid innuendos or whatever." Altair stated, typing out a response.

-piratekingNO1 has logged out-

There was silence for a new record of almost two seconds, before Altair and Malik burst out in laughter over the mic. "I can't- I can't-!"

"His face must have been priceless!" Altair cackled, slapping his table. Malik laughed harder, he was almost gasping for breath now. "We ever gonna tell him?"

"Heeeeell no! Let his imagination run wild!" Altair said, leaning forward to check some things on his character. Malik chuckled. "You're evil. Alright, I'm gonna get some sleep now. You head off to bed too soon, don't be late to tomorrow's raid."

"I know, I know Malili. I'll be there. 10'o clock sharp. Night." Altair responded, a faint smile peaking through his tone. After he was sure Malik had logged off, he took off his headset and set it down next to his monitor, logging out of the game himself. Maybe one day, he thought, like totally hypothetically and probably never but maaaybe, we'll meet each other and actually do something like that.


You know on Edward's end, he's got his hand over his mouth to hide his blush and is actually contemplating joining in that hot ass party.

I hope I portrayed these guys right lol Altair's style of typing (and also Desmond's) is based off one of my favorite AltMal blogs on tumblr. Also all their names actually have some significance to their games, except Khadar's XD I hope you found this as funny as I did, but it makes slightly more sense in context of the "meme," which was all AltMal centric lol Hopefully I can get more Edward into and Ezio into my writing into the future haha
