Weird compound idea. So I was thinking about how there’s so many animal Desmonds they could fill a zoo. And then I had the thought: Desmond Zoo! Some Isu got Desmond’s DNA and replicated him in animal form like fifty times over and made a zoo. Until one day, one slip up, one tiny mishap, one minuscule mistake leads to a Desmond outbreak!
Okay but what if all the animal Desmond were from the same ‘in between’. Not just the animal Desmonds but the creature Desmonds as well.
They’re all kept in suspended animation, in a facility that exist nowhere and everywhere at the same time, its existence forever weaving through the countless calculations all around it.
And in this facility, there lies only one caretaker.
But then…
Someone infiltrated the facility.
It is currently unknown if the plan had been to steal a specific Desmond or something else but the caretaker manages to find the infiltrator before they could do anything.
But in the chase that happened afterwards…
The lock placed upon all of the Desmonds was unlocked.
And the stability of the facility broke.
The Desmonds were thrown into different timelines within the Calculations where they would wake up without any memories of how they got there.
And now…
It is up to the caretaker to find them and return them to the facility once more.
Of course…
It was easier said than done, considering how these Desmonds tend to… ‘find’ their way towards the people who would do everything to keep them safe.
Even from a caretaker who was more Isu than human.

Unfortunately, I’m not far enough along in the game to experience the Masquerade event for myself, but it is fascinating to see how fun it looks so far from other’s playthroughs!
The different little Easter eggs related to The Hunchback of Notre Dame Disney film are especially nice!
The little alphabet blocks with pictures = Quasimodo reciting his alphabet with Frollo.
The little upturned hats with money as a form of payment = what some of the Roma nomads used to collect their money while performing in the streets.
The toy hanky that explodes = the hanky trick Esmeralda used to escape from the guards.
The intricate wooden toys + broken glass decorations = pretty much Quasi’s carved figurines and his decorations
Croissants 🥐 being the favorite delicacy = Hugo the Grotesque/“gargoyle’s” description of Quasi’s physical shape.
Wine 🍷 and 🧀 also being favorite food items = Hugo’s throwaway line: “Pour the wine and cut the cheese!!!” (The face I made when I was able to piece together the connection)
I could go on, but it is better if you guys check out the reviews/recaps/playthroughs of other bloggers whose posts I’ve been reblogging.
Also, Rollo doesn’t seem to be doing anything super sus so far (beyond grumbling to himself whenever people talk about the festival), but I still giggle when I read about what players recap from his dialogue and interactions because it is WAY TOO EASY to imagine him walking exactly like Judge Claude Frollo (Back upright, shoulders pulled back, him looking down his nose at you because HE’S A TALL BOY, with his fingers pressed against each other beneath his chest and above the abdomen, and gliiiiiiiiiiiiding as he walks.)
I’m excited to see wherever else the event takes us (and see Rollo’s true colors should they be revealed for us.)

All these ‘Desmond as …’ asks with him as dangerous animals. This would be his reaction to a Templar trying to move him from somewhere. Or an Assassin he didn’t like…
=====================================
short snippet by teecup
I made it vague what kind of animal/creature Desmond in this one so if you want him to be Mr. Tunnel Fluffball, go ahead XD
.
.
“My lord… the excavation team cannot proceed with digging deeper underneath the temple.”
Maria stood quietly as Robert glared at the poor messenger who had the misfortune of informing Robert of the unfortunate news.
“What’s the problem now? We already paid off everyone to let us dig in peace and to stay quiet. This should not have gotten to Saladin’s ears.” Robert growled.
“It’s not… it’s not the Saracens, sire.” The poor messenger gripped his hat tight enough to crumple it as he tried to explain, “They… they say that the only route we can take is blocked.”
“Blocked?”
“Yes, sire.”
“And they can’t just dig around the blockage?”
“No, sire.” The poor messenger shook his head and Maria wondered if the messenger was already saying a silent prayer in fear, “They say that this is the only route. Any other places would weaken the foundation and we risk the temple collapsing above us.”
Robert was not a brute.
He was quite a reasonable man.
A wise man.
But this entire expedition had put a strain on him. They do not have complete control over Jerusalem so simply being here, digging underneath Solomon’s Temple was a danger all by itself.
But he had just received word that left him in a very bad mood and everyone was walking lightly, hoping they wouldn’t be the one to step on broken glass.
“And we can’t just… unblock it?”
The messenger hesitated.
“What is blocking it?” Robert asked with a frown.
“I… I believe it is better if you come see for yourself, sire.”
With that ominous words, the messenger led them deeper into the tunnel they had been digging. Maria did not know just how deep Robert wishes to dig nor did she know what they were digging this much more.
All Robert said was that a treasure that can change the entire world nestled deep underground.
Maria believed that Robert was talking about a holy artifact, perhaps the grail or the ark.
Something that will show to everyone that this Holy War is necessary.
That they are doing what is right and what God has intended.
As they reached the end of tunnel, Maria froze.
As the entire tunnel echoed the roar of the beast impending their holy mission.

10/13 Käärijä stickers 👠💄✨
The most selfindulgent piece of this entire project x'D
I found this store full of just käärijä green things and so I decided to just draw Jere wear all of it at the same time x'D (except I didn't find a way to incorporate the dancer shirt so almost all :'D xD). It turned out working way too well not to make a sticker out of it so I'm sorry :'D
Alternative version (without the shirt) below the line :3

-->With coop and shed clean, Alice wandered back to chat with the chickens for a little while and collect the eggs (in between giving herself more pep talks, because that sad moodlet from earlier was really sticking -- on the other hand, she got cake for breakfast, so that had to have helped in the "happiness" department), while Smiler successfully entertained Moory and got some milk for the fridge. Victor, for his part, continued his tending and harvesting of the greenhouse -- hampered slightly by the fact that Bugs and Elmer, now on low battery, had decided it was their duty to float off around the lot and hide from me. *sigh* Elmer I fortunately found pretty quickly as he passed by the greenhouse searching for more plants to tend, and got Victor to shut him off, but Bugs proved to be harder to find...
-->But while looking for that darn bot, I happened to spot a familiar face in the front yard -- one Brian Pimentel, NAP Inspector! Making note of a bunch of recyclables the gang had left in the front yard during an earlier attempt to clear out the garbage. ^^; I quickly had Victor go recycle that and some other trash while Brian went around the house to check on the greenhouse -- and, to my delight, Bugs appeared, "chasing" the guy there! I kept an eye on him while Brian finished his inspection -- fortunately, despite the mess in the front yard, the gang got another passing grade. Even more fortunately, he wasn't at all tempted by Toothy's cake tongue when he left the lot. XD I had Victor finish up his recycling, then go and turn off Bugs before the bot exploded before harvesting his now-fully-grown oversized crops. Whew -- disaster averted!
-->While that was going on, I had Alice refill the pet bowls so a hungry Surprise could get her lunch, then give some meat to Toothy so they didn't try to snap up any passing Sims. She then fixed up a broken water collector while Smiler (somewhat glitchily) hatched the latest chick out of the coop, and Victor claimed the last slice of cake in the fridge as his lunch. I mean, after all that tending and harvesting, sir, I think you deserve it! He wandered over Alice's way for a chat while Smiler celebrated the birth of a new chick with a dance...
