Here comes the second piece for the @kyluxbigbang! 

Thank you for the prompts! We’ve added them to our list and we’ll try to get it posted soonish. As I mentioned in the other Ask, we ended up grouping similar prompts together so you might not see the specific wording you submitted but there will be categories or multi-prompt days so don’t fret!

Now the critical question is, do we get a link to the aforementioned playlist?

"Can I ask you a question?" 

Desmond glanced over to his left, where Shaun was leaning against the balcony wall. Shaun was looking at him curiously, and a little... Shy? Guilty? Desmond couldn't quite tell. 

"Sure," he replied, moving to lean on his right side, so he was facing Shaun. 

"How did Abstergo get you?" 

Desmond hadn't had any idea what Shaun would have asked, but he wouldn't have expected that. 

"What?" 

"That first time," Shaun murmured, glancing down at his hands, then back up to Desmond. "How did they get you?" 

"They forced me to go with them, why?" 

Shaun frowned at that. "No, I mean.. The files we first got, after they took you, they said they'd drugged you and pulled you into a van." 

"Well, yeah," Desmond answered. "The drugs were to disorient me." 

"You knew there were drugs in that shot? Why on earth would you drink it?" 

"I mean, they told me  what was gonna happen. I had to." 

Shaun was looking at him with such shock that it was almost funny. Almost, because he also looked kind of disappointed. 

"Look," he said, before Shaun could speak again, "They had the manager call me back to her office. They were holding her at gunpoint, showed their Templar badges or whatever, and threatened to kill her and everyone else in the bar if I didn't go peacefully, what else was I supposed to do?" 

Shaun looked shocked at that, and Desmond realized that while he'd hoped Desmond hadn't been stupid enough to just get drugged and taken, he'd kind of believed it this whole time anyway. 

"Dude, it was my bar as much as it was anyone's, and I was pouring the drinks, how on earth do you think they'd drug it without me noticing? We look for that shit, man!" 

Shaun actually looked a little ashamed at that, and nodded. "Yeah, that's fair. I never really thought about it until recently, actually."

"Yeah, I figured," Desmond replied, but it wasn't really bitter. The situation was still a little funny, actually. "You didn't really have a good opinion of me at first did you? If that was the first thing you ever read of me, I can see how you wouldn't even want to."

Shaun laughed a little, rueful and maybe even a little sad. "I didn't," he agreed, then looked up at Desmond, head still ducked slightly, giving him an almost coy look. "I'm.. I'm glad you stuck around long enough for me to change my mind." 

Desmond did finally laugh at that, because it wasn't by his choice that he was still here - he'd tried to sacrifice himself in the temple, not even two months ago, and even Juno had seemed surprised that he hadn't died. He wasn't exactly going to go questioning fate or anything. 

"Me too," he said honestly. 

Shaun looked like he had more to say, butt he didn't. He eventually looked away from Desmond, and turned to face the cityscape in front of them. Desmond returned to the position he'd been in before Shaun's original question. 

He didn't push; he didn't need to. Shaun wasn't one to hold his tongue long - even when he really, really wanted to. 

He could wait; he had a feeling that whatever it was - and he hoped it was the same thing he'd been holding back since just before he knew this whole adventure was going to end with his death - that it would be worth waiting for.

(Apologies if this causes an inconvenience—and of course, you’re free not to join. I’d be glad if you did, though; all nine of you are people I’d like to get to know. I’m just too much of an awkward potato to come and say hi.)

it baffles me whenever i learn that someone would like to get to know me but aww that is so sweet! and it is no trouble at all, i love doing questionnaires!

Rules:

Tag nine people to get to know them better. (sorry i just dislike tagging and i’m lazy with it, so i won’t do that. but if anyone would like to do this, feel free to do so!)

Questions:

1) Relationship Status:

single.

2) Favourite Colour:

gray (darker the better), black, shades of blue (i prefer dark tones here as well, not extremely vivid)

3) Lipstick or Chapstick:

i love lipsticks, if they stay put well, otherwise hate them. really picky of my lip colors. and i always use chapstick under my lipsticks. tends to stay good looking longer. can’t choose one over the other. they work together on my face.

4) Last Song I Listened to:

uhhh i have no idea. even spotify can’t help me as it’s reset. i guess the last song from the episode of glee i watched a few days back? which would be... dream a little dream of me.

5) Last Movie I Watched:

a room with a view

6) Top Three TV Shows:

ahh atm game of thrones, bbc sherlock and stranger things. but i have sooooooo many favorites it is agony to tell only three.

7) Top Three Bands:

i honestly don’t know. i seem to have a clearer view of my fav artists, but bands are difficult. i want to say the rasmus as one mainly because i have liked them the longest, but to be honest i have not followed their music for a couple of years. they just hold a meaning to me and i listen to their older music. but i really don’t have other favourites i would put on a pedestal above others.

8) Book(s) I’m Currently Reading:

currently nothing. i don’t really read books, to be honest. and when i do i mostly keep to the few favs from the time i read books. like the harry potter books, jane austen books, jane eyre, and girl with a pearl earring.

9) A weird fact about yourself (according to your own definition of “weird”):

this is really not a weird fact at all, but something that is really rare by finnish standards.
