WHO: Edward Kenway and you!
WHERE: Gemini!
WHEN: a day post-Morrigan fight, little bit before the fortress raid.
WHAT: Edward's back from his canon update!
WARNINGS: Assassin's Creed blanket warnings (allusions to murder and violence and conspiracies), but other than that nothing!
[Edward blinks at the video, having clearly just gotten up out of bed in the past few minutes or so. He looks somewhat older, and also, like someone doodled on his face a day ago, the lines now smudged as he yawns.]
Right, what's happened now? I've only just woken up after four years back home and there were a thousand texts and voicemails waiting for me. I would've thought it'd been four years here as well, judging from the volume alone, if not for the date.
[Pause.]
And who drew on my face?

It's good to hear from you again, my friend. Though I wish the circumstances were better for your awakening.
As much as I would love the chance to help you get your bearings, I'll make it brief: The Black Order has made its move.
no subject
[Which. Is concerning, yeah, if he thinks about it too hard. But at the mention of the Black Order, Edward straightens up, suddenly alert.]
Damn it. How's everyone? Do we know who they've sent this time?
half private
We have two confirmed, one of which has already been taken care of, and one who has yet to show themselves. A small group used the Jackdaw to assist in dealing with a man named Shay Cormac. [A pause. He switches the feed to private.] I'm told he was a "Templar" and that you'd have some idea of what that entails.
[And then... there's another pause. Longer. Hesitant.]
... The second is a man named Cu Chulainn. A Berserker-Class Servant. The strongest warrior of the Ulster saga. Known as Ireland's Child of Light. Though in this life he is a far cry from the hero he once was.
The third is still unknown to us.

And some app users kind of hijacked the Jackdaw, but she'll leave it to those responsible to fess up.

[Ah, the guilt is still there, but he's spent years now as an Assassin. This, he thinks, is a part of the Creed's wisdom: you accept the consequences of your actions, whether glorious or tragic.]
Aye, I'm all right. Better than. [A small smile.] I've met my daughter. Have I told you about her? Her name's Jenny and she's a spitfire.
How are you, lass?

I did borrow your ship though.

[Then he switches over to voice and toggles the private filter on, and now he sounds more proud than his text message suggested:] I hear you lot killed a Templar. Sorry I wasn't there to help—they're a self-righteous, hypocritical lot, and they tend to try to shove their "philosophy" down everyone's throats.

[Rose’s opinion of Edward has only gone up since May. Not that she’d ever say that of course.]
[Out loud.]
Unfortunately, the Black Order is back at it again. It might have been better to sleep through all of it.
no subject
[There's a groan.]
Bloody hell. You'd think they'd get the hint. [He sighs, tiredly, but straightens up, more alert and awake now.] Might be, but I'd rather be awake for this. I'll not let the Black Order run roughshod over the people here.

Didn't realize oversleep could literally age you. How're ya feeling?

[A pause, as he thinks about it.]
Honestly? Better than everyone here, currently. I met my daughter—her name's Jenny, and would that cameras existed in 1725, I would have so many pictures of her, she's adorable.

You’re all right, though? The Order, from my experience with groups such as them, has no qualms about harming civilians.

I mean, things are bad but IMPORTANTLY: what happened? Four years is a long time. You okay, Bestie?

[Edward grins at the question, eyes bright.]
I met my daughter! Her name’s Jenny and she’s such a smart young girl, she’ll break so many hearts when she grows up. For now she’s learning how to run a household, she’ll be lady of her own manor someday.
[And, he hopes, nowhere near the life that he’s led.]
I’ve met Tessa, as well—ah, my second wife. The mother of the boy in the picture, I believe—and perhaps one of the most beautiful women in London as well. Would that I could introduce you to her, I’m sure she’d be delighted.

...Not that the Order and their machinations would have let me, mind, but I digress.

[A tired sigh.]
Aye, I heard they’re at it again. Personally I would’ve preferred it had they waited another month so I could celebrate Fourth of July, but. [A shrug.] They’re not particularly keen on listening to their own people, why listen to me?
