Ooh idea: pigeon!Desmond again, but instead of a single immortal pigeon, he just reincarnates over and over again. But not in a ‘he lays the egg that will be the next Desmond’ way, just a ‘he dies and somewhere a new pigeon is born and voila Desmond!’ way. Altaïr would probably figure out that it was the same spirit/soul but I wonder how long it would take Ezio?
The original pigeon Desmond idea for those curious.
I’m so glad you specified ‘reborn as a random pigeon somewhere else’ because my brain immediately went ‘if not an egg, how about the new pigeon bursting out of the old pigeon’s chest ala chest burster lol’
For this one, we’ll have Desmond have the same age expectancy as a pigeon and be reborn as a chick somewhere else. This way, his ancestor will have the time to grieve over the death of their pigeon. When Desmond returns to them, enough time has passed that they wouldn’t mind having another dedicated messenger pigeon.
Altaïr would notice it early on because he grew up with Desmond. He’s used to Desmond’s habits and quirks as a pigeon. And the Levantine Brotherhood kept using messenger pigeons so Altaïr has been exposed to a lot of them. Desmond had always been strange compared to them and it showed. Would he realize it as soon as they met? No. It’ll take him a couple of weeks. The most glaring thing is that his latest pigeon liked to rest on the same shoulder as Desmond did and made the same cooing sound whenever he was trying to get Altaïr to rest for a bit.
For Ezio though. Let’s make it more traumatic. Messenger pigeons aren’t a regular occurrence for Ezio but Petruccio has a ‘pet’ pigeon who liked to fly towards him and chill with him whenever Petruccio was resting or had to do something else.
So Desmond’s first death in Italia is actually during the time the Auditores are being arrested. He tried to protect Petruccio but ends up being hit hard. When Ezio returned, Desmond actually dies in his hands.
He gets reborn and has to deal with the whole ‘growing up as a pigeon’ thing again. By the time he returns to Ezio, Ezio’s already in Monteriggioni, training with his uncle’s mercenaries, and he becomes one of the many messenger pigeons the Brotherhood uses.
(Not to be mistaken by the messenger pigeons the Medici uses. Desmond hates being mistaken as one of them)
Ezio would probably realize Desmond keeps being reborn around the time he’s in Roma. As the mentor, he gets more messenger pigeons than he did before and he gets used to them, figuring out their specific quirks and habits.
Desmond’s habits remained the same and it takes Ezio a bit of time before he remembered why Desmond’s habits felt… nostalgic.
It’s because Desmond acts the same as he did when he was just Petruccio’s pet pigeon.

Catboy nonny once again, considering something. So, the ancient Egyptians revered cats. Sooooo Bayek meets catboy!desmond?
It would be funny if Bayek thought he was a messenger of Bastet when they first met then, when he realized that Desmond is actually a man, he wondered if he was a messenger of Maahas or even Maahas’ son with a human mother.
Desmond is just like “???” because his only ‘information’ about Egyptian Gods are like… almost nonexistent? He knows Anubis because of The Mummy Returns.
… That’s it.
So he has no idea who the gods Bayek is talking about are but he does know that cats are really, like, important to Egyptian culture so he just rolls with it.
Whenever Bayek asks if he’s a son or a messenger of this god or another, he just shrugs.
When Bayek asks what he means by that, Desmond tries to make him believe that he has amnesia (which is hard to do via charades as far as Desmond was concerned)
And Bayek, being the kind and helpful medjay that he is (and also being a devout believer of the gods and an over all nice guy as long as one is not connected to the death of his son), tries to help him ‘recover’ his memories.
So, in this one, Bayek doesn’t take Desmond as a ‘pet’. He treats Desmond like a priest of one of the feline gods (no idea who though) that has lost his memories. Sometimes, Desmond feels a bit awkward with how much respect Bayek gives to him because he’s not used to it but he appreciate it though.
Desmond would join Bayek in his travels, more as a companion than anything, with the idea being Desmond might remember something if they visit other locations connected to the gods with feline characteristics.
They hide Desmond’s ears by wrapping a piece of fabric around his head because they don’t want people to question him or, worse, try to kidnap him or something.

This fits them perfectly for me
oh definitely. it was Jacob who asked if anyone would be there for him.
Connor: no.
Desmond: nope.
Arno: absolutely not.
Ezio: I hope it sucks whatever you're going through.
Edward: I hope it emotionally scars you for the rest of your life.
Evie: I hope you reach out to me so I can ignore you.
Altaïr: I can't wait to go to your funeral knowing that I could have changed that outcome.
ofc they're all joking and it honestly makes Jacob laugh so hard at the responses from them.

Day 11: Civilization
“Love binds our Order together. Love of people, of cultures, of the world. Fight to preserve that which inspires hope, and you will win back your people.”
I know I kind of went off prompt with this, but seriously thank you to everyone who helped me brainstorm. I guess this interpretation of the prompt is to think on how a component of civilization is culture, and by that extension their people, communities, family… the concept is probably too much for one piece to explore but here’s my go— again thank you to everyone who helped me brainstorm!!
