Rating/Warnings:
Status: Complete

Who: Shaun, Noah (Jacob and Aedan pass by)
When: Current
Where: Assassin HQ
What: Noah comes by to offer some soup and company to Shaun. He’s stunned that Shaun’s actually talking about his past and offering honest worry about Noah’s happiness. Maybe nightmares aren’t terrible when it comes to some things.
Rating/Warnings: Aedan vaguely refers to eating issues, Noah talks a bit about being hungry and young in a war zone, Shaun discusses some Assassin Creed spoilers relating to Desmond / Rebecca. Desmond spoilers go up to AC 4 (Black Flag) and Rebecca ones for AC Syndicate and the YA novel Last Descendants 2 . Edit: Also some Jacob Spoilers for AC Syndicate DLC: Jack The Ripper
