One repeated refrain I keep seeing from the Pro-Palestinian crowd, from the most virulently Jew-hating to the most Jew-sympathetic, is pretty straightforward.
"Well, after 75 years of how the Palestinians have been treated, can you blame them for the 7/10 attack?"
And the response that I've been itching to give to that...
"So, you're saying that the Nakba was acceptable back in 1948? Because after 1000+ years of mistreatment by Muslim Arabs, including multiple massacres and ethnic cleansing in living memory, that means that the Jews were justified with the Nakba--indeed, they were restrained, because they could have easily done so much worse, and the Palestinians Arabs hadn't had any mistreatment yet. There was a clear side who had been the victims (the Jews) and a clear side who had been the victimizers for over a thousand years, as the Muslims been the ones doing the mistreatment to the Jews. If you're saying that 75 years of marginalization justifies mass rape and murder, then the Israelis in 1948 would have been justified in killing every single proto-Palestinian Arab by that same metric.
"No? That's different? How? How is it different? Explain to me how it's different without using the word 'colonizer', because a vast number of the Jews who lived there were native and had never been living elsewhere. Sure, they were just a portion of the Jewish population as a whole, but so are the Palestinian militants. Would someone whose family had been butchered in the 1929 Hebron Massacre not be justified in taking out their hate on other Arabs? Because that's the standard you're promoting now. How is it different?
"On what ethical grounds is it okay to say that the Palestinians deserve to get to rape and murder for 75 years of marginalization, and yet that the Jews simply displacing them but allowing them to continue living, sparing their lives after 1200+ years of brutal suppression... that act is somehow the most horrendous and monstrous act in the entire history of mankind, as some Pro-Palestinian activists have explicitly said?"
"Explain to me how 75 years of mistreatment justifies mass murder, but 1000+ years of legally recognized second-class brutal near-slavery doesn't justify displacement of your former oppressors."

Hi! I love your work, especially how you color, you somehow make the most gruesome stuff look soft and welcoming and like, holy.
I wanted to ask: does Vasco know about all the murder attempts and savage displays that come with being cardinal? Do he and Machete ever talk about how it might end? Sorry if that’s too sad :(
Oh, thank you!
cw this is indeed kinda bleak
Machete keeps Vasco in the dark about this side of him and his work as long as he's capable but eventually he starts to put things together, reluctantly.
Towards the end Machete is becomes very good at compartmentalizing and keeping the increasingly heartless work self and private self separate, mostly because he's confused and ashamed and afraid that Vasco will leave him if he finds out what he's becoming. He's paranoid, fears for his life, thinks about death often and feels doomed, but doesn't want to talk about that with his pure and uncorrupted Vasco.

how different would the taken AU be is Macaque and Wukong did have more kids?
I know they didn't because of the whole Lady Bone Demon thing, but what if they made another egg just before that and Xiaotian had some little baby siblings, like Rumble and Savage for example.
Would having siblings make him feel better about his empty ness before he ran away or would they make it worse?
I had the idea of taken AU but with Rumble and Savage last night and needed to ask
Tumblr media
I WANT SO BAD FOR MACAQUE AND WUKONG TO HAVE A BIG FAMILY~
Sorry for the yelling XD
BUT YES. I also constantly imagine Xiaoxiao and MK having little siblings and Macaque and Wukong keep having twins somehow XD
Rumble and Savage would be so so soooo cute. I think this is the first time I've drawn these two~ Savage would be the one on Xiaoxiao's head. Has two ears and no red in his hair.
While Rumble has four ears and some red in his hair~
Having more siblings would help Xiaoxiao just a bit. Would give him something to fill his heart a little~ Yet, the more he looked at them, the more he would feel... jealous and sad. And he would hate it cause he wants to feel nothing but love when he looks at his brother's and he doesn't understand what he is jealous about.
I love this concept soooo much~

Who gives a fuck what you feel as if you don't despise arabs and islam.
ah, you got me there anon 😔 you're right, I'm an Islamophobic Arabophobic asshole because I view them as people capable of thinking and making rational decisions instead of what we all know they ACTUALLY are: quirky desert people who drink sand and wear funny clothes and have to kill Israelis because they simply don't know any better!!!/s
in all seriousness I assume you're talking about me condemning Hamas because I literally haven't said anything against Palestinian civilians or civilians of any other Arab country (nor am I here). I'm not against Islam, I'm not against Arabs, I'm against an extremist terrorist group who wants me and my family dead. and it just so happens that this group is Muslim and Arab! You know how ProPals always insist criticism of the Israeli government isn't antisemitic (a true statement I wish they'd actually deliver on)? you're basically applying the opposite of that logic here. criticism of Hamas is Islamophobic because, well, they're Muslims! and not treating every Muslim as perfect human being capable of doing no wrong is Islamophobic, actually. istg the way you people talk about Muslims and Arabs is so utterly dehumanising. ever heard of the noble savage trope?

increasingly i don't care about "are these characters right/perfect for each other?" as an approach to ships (boring, uninspired, limiting, does not lead to miho/kaiba) and i'm more interested in asking "do the daydreams about their interactions get me hype?" (wired, exciting, limitless, leads to miho/kaiba)

i fell in love with jin guangyao when he threw his hands up (metaphorically) at nie mingjue during the stair debacle and went "wow you really Cannot understand me. fine. i tried. skill issue"!! i thought it was so cool how neatly he dual-wielded justified terror, justified snark, and a sincere attempt at making himself understood. i guess that's triple-wielding, actually, but you get it
you’re right, i do get it, i get it so much. 🤝🤝🤝 that moment turned me into the unhinged jgy stan i am today.
Jin GuangYao sighed, “Brother, it really was my father’s orders. I couldn’t refuse. Now, if you want me to take care of Xue Yang, what would I say to him?”
Nie MingJue, “There’s no need for explanations. Come back to me with Xue Yang’s head in your hand.”
Jin GuangYao still wanted to speak, but Nie MingJue had already lost all patience, “Meng Yao, don’t speak such pretentious words in front of me. Your whole thing stopped working on me since a long time ago!”
Within a second, a few degrees of unease flashed over Jin GuangYao’s face, as though someone with an unmentionable illness was suddenly exposed in the public. There was nowhere for him to hide.
He spoke, “My whole thing? Which whole thing? Brother, you’ve always yelled at me for calculating people and being too dishonorable. You say that you’re a proud, righteous person, that you aren’t afraid of anything, that propen men shouldn’t need to play with schemes. That’s fine. Your background is noble and your cultivation is high. But what about me? Am I the same as you? First, my cultivation isn’t as firm as yours. Ever since I was born, has anyone taught me? And second, I have no prominent background. Do you think that I’m in a steady position, here at the LanlingJin Sect? Do you think that I can rise into power the moment Jin ZiXuan dies? Jin GuangShan would rather bring another illegitimate child back than want me to succeed him! You think that I should be afraid of nothing? Well I’m afraid of everything, even other people! He whose stomach is full believes not him who is starving.”
EXR translation, pg 498 & 499
then comes the part of the text where imo jgy is 100% aware of the fact that nmj is going to hear his words and choose the worst faith interpretation of them. this feels like one last moment to give nmj a chance to prove him wrong about what he knows inevitably is about to happen, and it has been quoted and discussed so many times that i don’t think i need to do so again. but i will add this moment too, because i don’t think jgy gets enough credit for the brutal, savage humour in this line, after he gets kicked down the stairs:
Jin GuangYao only landed after rolling down more than fifty steps. He didn’t even stay on the ground for long before crawling up. With a wave of his hand, he sent away the servants and disciples who surrounded him. Dusting off his robes, he slowly raised his head to look at Nie MingJue. His eyes were quite calm, almost indifferent. Just as Nie MingJue unsheathed his saber, Lan XiChen happened to leave the palace to see what was going on, concerned after having waited for long. Seeing the situation before him, he unsheathed Shuoyue as well, “What happened, this time?”
Jin GuangYao, “Nothing. Brother, thank you for your advice.”
EXR translation, pg 500

YAY! Requests are open! 🥹
Ooooh Savage Opress and a fem reader who has bad periods to the point of not wanting to eat the first day. I mean on Dathomir the males and females are separate so I wonder what he will think about it? Imagine him like sensing or detecting the aroma of blood first thing and going all- ACT FIRST…ask questions…maybe?😂 in the typical savage fashion
AHHHH! Thank you for sending this! As someone who’s suffered from heavy PCOS symptoms, I can pull from personal experience.
Enjoy our sweet, big yellow Zabrak!
︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶
You walk into the living room where Savage is sitting.
You had slowly, painfully, pulled yourself out of the bedroom because obviously you wanted some attention from your favorite Zabrak, it was going to be a long day.
You just got up hardly 10 minutes ago, only to find you started your period. You were already prepared. Physically, anyway.
Of course, despite Savage being busy with a datapad, he knows you’re there, he’s just distracted.
It takes a whole 3.4 seconds max for him to smell the blood from the distance he’s at, then shoot up from his seat.
You jump back, because wtaf? You weren’t expecting that-
He basically stomps towards you in a panic, looking you over for any clear Injuries.
“Are you hurt? I smell blood, I’ll get the medikit-“
Before you can respond, he’s already sprint past you, and you have to follow his ass into the bathroom.
You lean against the door frame, already exhausted. You definitely didn’t want to chase around a man who’s at least 2 full feet taller than you are.
He’s scrounging around in a panic for a medikit, barely noticing your presence.
You interrupt his scrounging to explain that you’re just menstruating, and that you came out for comfort, and attention. Not because you were dying.
He stares at you totally blank because what in the Sith Hells is “menstruation”?
Whatever that is, Zabraks don’t have the same functions. Even if they did, how would he know?
The word sounds roughly familiar. Did he read about it somewhere?
You roll your eyes at his dumb expression, and go to lay down on the bed. You definitely don’t have energy for this.
It takes way too damn long for him to piece it together, it’s like a bad comedy skit.
When he finally comes into the bedroom, he gently asks, “Do you want something to eat, or drink?”
You’re tempted to ask for food, but right now it just doesn’t feel right. Pain, nausea, or an upsetting mix of both stop you from asking. In any case, eating sounds like a death sentence.
You grumble out a “No. Not feeling good.” before getting more comfortable with the blankets.
Savage thinks for a moment. You’re clearly in pain, and when he’s in pain, he usually meditates if he’s not being tended to by a droid. Right now might not be the best time for that…
He comes to the conclusion that cuddles are a necessity.
He doesn’t even ask you if you want to cuddle, he just climbs in.
You’re annoyed because why the hell is he bothering you?
You stop your wordless complaining when he snuggles you from behind, and brings one of his huge hands down to your abdomen.
This man is like a 7-foot-tall, walking, talking heating element. He feels so good.
Despite not wanting to move from the cozy position you’re already in, you shift around to snuggle him back. Warmth envelops your body, and you can’t help but relax.
That’s when the purring starts.
And damn this whole man is like a massage chair given life.
Content enough to grow tired, you drift off.
When you wake up a couple hours later, you notice he’s not in bed.
Looking to the other side of the room, he’s standing there, stretching.
It takes him a moment to notice you.
“Oh- I was going to make you something, you have not eaten yet today. Sorry if I woke you…”
He literally sounds so sweet, and genuinely upset with himself just for waking you up.
“No, it’s fine.”
A soft grunt, “Is there something you want to eat? I can make it for you.”
You think about it, still unsure, but the offer is so kind, it’s hard to refuse.
You tell him what exactly it is you want.
It takes a while for him to finish, but by the time you hear the clanking of dishes die down, you know he’s almost done.
Like the sweetheart he is, he comes back into the bedroom with a smile on his face, food in hand.
To say the least, Savage is a damn good cook.
I hope this fit the bill, anon! 💗

Savage Pyrrha- When she meets Jaune's family she wanted things to be normal. But when they make jokes about her being way above Jaune's level... that is when she doesn't give a fuck. She praises Jaune of how good he is in spite of his parent's lack in support. And then proceeds to tell them that she is going to ride him all night long tonight until she is pregnant with his child. She will make them regret making jokes on Jaune's expense.
Pyrrha thought things would be normal, at least that's what she thought. Though, Jaune's comments on his sisters 'placing him in dresses' should've been signs she should've taken. She already listened to Weiss putting down her leader and lover over and over again, she could mistake his sisters for making jokes about him being the usual sibling squabbles. But listening to his own parents' lack of faith in their only son was the last straw for the Mistrial Champion. When his mother said that she could 'do so much better', her savage side was let out.
"Will you utter jackasses SHUT THE FUCK UP?!" Pyrrha hollered at the top of her lungs, causing nine pairs of eyes to stare at her in shock. "Is this all you people do, put him down?!"
"It's...it's just a joke," one of the blonde twin Arc girls said, ignoring the fact that The Pyrrha Nikos had shouted the 'F-Word' in their household.
"Jokes are something everyone can laugh at together," Pyrrha corrected the girl, "what you're doing is laughing at your only brother's expense, you dense twat!"
"Hey now!" Saphron Cotta Arc spoke up, as she covered baby Adrian's ears, "You can't just--!"
"Oh, me swearing? Yet you mocking your brother around your nephew is expert fucking parenting," she rolled her emerald eyes. "Jaune worked his ass off to get where he is now! He nearly got fucking killed, he got harassed by four douchebags, and don't get me started on that twig of an heiress!"
"You mean Weiss--?" Terra spoke up, but her wife quickly placed a hand over her lips.
"He kept going, and I helped him to get better, academically, as a leader, and as a fighter!" Pyrrha stands up, grabbing hold of her lover's wrist. "While you jackasses think about that shit, I'll be upstairs in Jaune's childhood room and riding his big thick cock all night long!!"
"I...I don't think that's appropriate," Papa Arc began to speak but was met with the Champion's unamused glare.
"Says the man with eight kids!" She walks toward the stairs with Jaune in tow, "Oh, and expect another grandchild, Mr. & Mrs. Arc."

Nothing fits him anymore after he's transformed: normal clothes, normal armour, a normal-sized bed, doorways -- the poor guy is carrying around all this extra powerful bulk but he keeps running runnels into the ceilings with his horns.
And I bet sometimes he just has a sit, and thinks about how nothing fits like it should, and he can't figure out why there's so much discomfort in it because he doesn't remember the time before the Nightsisters woke him up with ichor.
All he knows is that it must have been different even if he doesn't remember the particulars.
And all that is so short-lived because the brother he brought back from Lotho Minor is a handful and it takes all of Savage's energy to keep Maul from getting assassinated by those fucking Mandalorians and those annoying Jedi guys and that creep that used to be Maul's Master, and then in his last breath as the ichor seeps out of him, Savage feels all that extra tension leaving him and suddenly his body fits him again.
That's really cruel.

Got to the episode where we see maul again. Deeply unsettled by spider-maul, was yet again not prepared for it, dont think I ever will be. aside from the fuckery I'm enduring I do have a question. Now, I can understand the spider legs, it's a little weird but the functionality is there, what I don't understand is the need for the spider ass? Like, this is mechanical, no? This isn't a real spider he's attached himself to, so what the fuck does he need the spider ass for? I hate the spider ass and I want it gone right now!!
Anywho, here's another shitty meme from yours truly:

Assassin's Creed fic 👀 I am always a sucker for (good) Desmond Miles fic, hell yeah, would 100% read those if you posted them.
👀 👉👈 you're my new favourite, anon. this isn't close to being done but i'm very fond of it so here's a lil preview~ inspired by esama's study of flight, but with a twist! (gen, time travel/reincarnation, found family, william miles' a+ parenting, accidental subterfuge, desmond goes by miles mostly)
  Inhaling a careful breath, Ezio pauses half a flight from their destination and Leonardo halts on the step above him, frown deepening in concern. “Ezio?” he prompts, when he still doesn’t say anything.
  Ezio sighs. “We have thirteen recruits now,” he explains, turning to lean his back against the staircase wall; the cool temperature of the stone actually calms him somewhat and allows him to go on, “He’s been with us a few months, now.”
  Tilting his head curiously, Leonardo bends closer to him. “I thought you had stopped recruiting for the time being.”
  “I had.” Ezio rubs over his face quickly, such discomfort usually unsafe to display so openly — then again, Leonardo is hardly his enemy. “One of my discepoli, Adele, noticed him first.”
  “ ‘Noticed him’?”
  “... In my defense, I was away on a long assignment.”
  Leonardo just looks bewildered, an expression that’s usually quite amusing to see on the man, but Ezio can only cough awkwardly.
  “He, ah, was here a week before anyone thought to question him.”
  His old friend blinks slowly at him, Ezio can almost see the calculations happening in his mind, before his whole countenance brightens enough to make Ezio wince. 
  “You mean he infiltrated the Brotherhood? And nobody noticed?” he asks gleefully. “Oh, Ezio.”
  Refusing to flush in embarrassment, Ezio crosses his arms with a humph. “As I said, I wasn’t in the hideout at the time. Geniuses some of my recruits may be, but they all thought I had sent him here. Adele was the one to notice he had previous training, and asked him where he had met me.” Letting out a long breath, Ezio does smile, just a little. “The whelp didn’t even deny having snuck in, ’said that this is where he wants to be and was tired of waiting for chance to put him in my path, or I in his.”
  Leonardo laughs brightly, moving to rest against the wall across from Ezio. “And Machiavelli didn’t kill him immediately?”
  “No, Valeria convinced them all to keep it quiet until I returned from my contract, the little hellions. She even used me as a meat shield when Niccolò finally found out.” Ezio loves his recruits to distraction, they’re his brothers and sisters and siblings and he would gladly die for any one of them. He would also like to never face down Machiavelli’s sword and rarely-used hidden blade ever again. Once was already in excess.
  “And the recruit?”
  “Miles defended himself, of course. At least long enough for Niccolò to become intrigued by his skill.” He’s still testing the theory, but Ezio is fairly certain even the rank of millite is too low for him, though why Miles would be hiding his prowess is a concern all on its own. 
  Leonardo has known Ezio far too long, and far too well to not guess at his unsaid meaning, his lips tugging back into a thoughtful frown. “You think he was trained by another Assassin?”
  “I’m not sure yet,” he admits with a sigh. “He certainly wasn’t trained by any of our branches.”
  “Miles, Miles Miles,” Leonardo muses to the sloped ceiling. “Unusual name. Germanic? Or French, perhaps?”
  Ezio had been considering contacting his brothers in Spain, despite being almost positive that Miles wasn’t trained by them; he hadn’t even considered the French branch. Actually, did the French branch even exist anymore? He thinks he recalls hearing of its decimation around the time of the Inquisition.
  “There’s a thought,” he agrees slowly, rubbing his jaw. “I’d have to ask la Volpe or another older member about their fighting styles, I only ever crossed blades with Helene, and she hadn’t been an Assassin in many years by then.”
  “Ah, Helene... Dufranc, was it? Yes, yes, the lovely rogue from Barcelona. ‘Mon petit Assassin’, if I recall correctly?” 
  Glowering, Ezio kicks his friend’s foot at the reminder of the nickname he only escaped upon return to Italy. Some of his Spanish brothers still tease him about it in their letters. “I regret ever telling you about that,” he grumbles, much to Leonardo’s amusement. 
  Though, he quickly sobers and meets Ezio’s eyes under his hood, pinning him there easily. “Why am I here, old friend?” he asks, softly, but leaving no room to wriggle out of the answer again.
  He really isn’t making this easy, is he?
  Ezio can only hold Leonardo’s gaze for a few moments more, before he has to look away. “Miles is a bastard from a Veneziana whore. He never met his father.” He needn’t look to know Leonardo gets it immediately, but Ezio still goes on, “My students aren’t nearly as subtle as they think they are, and I do not know if it would have occurred to me without their whispers.”
  Leonardo understands this immediately, too. “Ah, does he not bear significant resemblance to you, then?”
  Ezio shakes his head. “My recruits seem to think so, but I’m afraid I’ve gotten far too in my head about it and am no longer sure if what I see is simply what I want to see.”
  “Oh, Ezio,” Leonardo sighs, standing straight to reach across the narrow space between them and put a hand on his shoulder. “I would be glad to meet him, old friend. Then, after, we will sort all this out, just as we always have.”
  Despite himself, Ezio finds himself relieved by the comfort, and reaches up to squeeze Leonardo’s hand, before removing it and stepping away. “Thank you,” he murmurs, and nods to the bottom of the stairs. “Miles is usually sparring one of his brothers or sisters around now, come with me.”
  “Or siblings,” Leonardo reminds him with a soft laugh, following at his heel.

You know I have my own wonderful idea and this takes place specifically in the young justice universe around season 1 since that has the best time frame to include this now we all know The Light was vandal savage attempt to rule the world again but have you noticed that the league of assassins philosophy of killing corruption and ra's being immortal too with lazurus pit, And vandal desire for control fits perfectly with the constant battle between Templars and assassins, so what if the league was originally the brotherhood and the templars was originally founded by vandal savage and I'm not talking about the weird backstory we got in AC origins with Julius Cesar though those events still happened but vandal is the one who formalized the templars into what they are, however here's where the assassins come in and especially ra's see while vandal was more than willing to fake his death every now and than to let the templars grow on their own if necessary, and to make the assassins think they won for a bit before coming back with a new name and because of that he's been able to rule the world the same way he's always did in the normal comics just this time he has a secret army at his beck and call during that entire time.
Then the assassins finally got a true victory with ra's becoming an assassin and eventually grandmaster who found, wait for it, an isu artifact that allows anyone who had died to come back to life but of course as we all know isu bullshit tends to have side effects and the Lazarus pit was no different but thanks to ra's leadership and the Lazarus pit the assassins for the first time in decades have finally won a final victory against the vandal and his templars at least until vandal waited for the day he can recreate his templars under a new name one where everyone will see the light of his leadership and the world will be his to control again.
So my point to all of this is, what if all the events of the assassins creed games up until the modern day before 2012 and before the start of season 1 of young justice all happened and that the moment vandal and his light start making moves, the league of assassins hear about it and catch the justice league and definitely batman off gaurd with a partnership and when the team is given a liason and new support in the form of Desmond, Shaun, and Rebecca.
So, in this one, we’re setting up Ra’s Al Ghul as the mentor of the League of Assassins and not a member of The Light?
Or are we going for the ‘things are different in this AU’ then go psyche! Ra’s Al Ghul is our Al Mualim and he’s a member of the Light!
Honestly, I wanna go for the second idea because, this way, we can set up Ra’s Al Ghul as a parental figure of Desmond who raised him because he was an orphan and he would act as both his master and his mentor, mirroring Altaïr’s relationship with Al Mualim.
So when Ra’s Al Ghul is finally shown as a member of The Light, it would hammer in how Ra’s and Desmond’s relationship mirroring Altaïr and Al Mualim’s relationship was a hint of Ra’s true ‘allegiance’.
Also, this would give Desmond an easier time to befriend Dick as they both got… uuhh… ‘complicated’ relationship with their father-figure (although Desmond having Ra’s as his father figure makes Dick think “atleast Bruce wasn’t as bad…”).
Although, by Leagues of Assassin standards, Ra’s does act like a good father to Desmond and he cares for Desmond like he does for Talia so when the truth of his allegiance to The Light comes to… well… light… there’s gonna be some sweet, sweet angst, not just between Desmond and Ra’s but with the team (especially Dick) and Desmond on how loyal Desmond is to Ra’s.
Unorganized Notes (I’m messing up the timeline XD):
Yeah, I’m doubling down on it because the Desmond is Talia’s twin ask has some really good ideas on Desmond’s relationship with the League members.
Talia treats Desmond as a little brother and even tells Batman to look after him because, in her own words, he’s still naive. This makes Batman believe that Desmond is a good person.
He is but he was raised to be an Assassin so he has no qualms killing bad guys. Shaun and Rebecca actually act more as his moral compass and remind him that the team won’t like it if you kill this person or something.
Desmond is known as Ra’s son although some of the League members say it in a more derogatory way as he isn’t related to Ra’s by blood.
Soooo… in the end, Desmond is the one who ‘kills’ Ra’s although he does mention that Ra’s won’t say dead to the team. He leaves Young Justice afterward to take care of the League. This though, does end up splitting the League between Desmond and Deathstroke but Desmond and his League will pop in and out to help the Young Justice every now and then.
Vandal Savage calls Desmond ‘mentor’ after Desmond takes over half of the League. He talks about Desmond as if he was a completely different person, saying how he always knew that Desmond would assassinate Ra’s. No matter what trickery Ra’s do to him, his blood will always guide him to be the thorn in the Templars’ side.
Desmond doesn’t remember it but he has been drowned in the Lazarus Pit… by Ra’s himself. Talia would imply it happened multiple times because Desmond’s mind is ‘fragile’.
Depending on how old Desmond is supposed to be in this AU, he either acts as Cassandra’s older brother or her father figure. He’s the reason why Cassandra was able to get away from Lady Shiva (honestly, I don’t like how Young Justice merged Lady Shiva and David Cain and made Lady Shiva more evil in this one but I'll use it for the plot). Whether Cassandra stays with Desmond or she becomes Orphan is up to you.
Red-Hooded Ninja is also close to Desmond who pretty much taught him after he lost his memories. Desmond has no idea who Jason Todd was and that’s why he didn’t know Red-Hooded Ninja’s real identity.
Later on, Desmond would start remembering memories that don’t feel like his own at all. Talia sees this and tells him to use the Lazarus Pit, implying that the reason why Ra’s always ‘drown’ Desmond in the pit was because of these memories.
So Desmond doesn’t. Instead, he tries to make sense of the memories he’s getting.
This is the part where you can go: (1) Those memories are Desmond’s ‘erased’ memories from when he was actually Ra’s younger brother whose Creed made him butt heads with his older brother ending with Ra’s using the Lazarus Pit to make Desmond forget about the Creed he had and become more easily controlled to do Ra’s wishes, (2) Desmond was actually Ra’s father who he usurped and took the League from (which was called the Brotherhood before) after they found the Lazarus Pit, or (3) Desmond was found floating in the Pit without his memories and Ra’s made use of that with Desmond’s actually memories being either (3.1) Desmond is part of the Isu race who survived because he was dunked in the Lazarus Pit which he had created or (3.2) he’s the real Desmond Miles from the AC world that got transported to the Young Justice world together with the Lazarus Pit.
Regardless of whichever plot you choose, the idea is Desmond’s memories that were coming back were from his previous ‘lives’ before the Lazarus Pit erased his memories over and over again. This is the part where you can play with Desmond’s ancestors’ memories by making them memories of Desmond’s past lives before he is once again drown in the Lazarus Pit to forget everything.
