21st century conversations

Over the course of his training to become an Assassin, Desmond Miles had various conversations with his fellow Assassins - Shaun Hastings, Rebecca Crane and Lucy Stillman. Here follow a list of those conversations:

Assassin's Creed II

After arriving in the Hideout

Lucy

• Desmond: Hey, I just wanted to say thank you, and that I'm sorry.
• Lucy: Sorry?
• Desmond: Yeah, you know, everything back at Abstergo, it just... I wasn't ready.
• Lucy: It's okay.
• Desmond: No, going through all that, knowing that the Templars still exist, what they're planning...
• Lucy: What's done is done. You're here now and that's what matters.
• Desmond: Lucy, I've been seeing things, symbols in my bedroom, the code on the keypad.. just like Altaïr.
• Lucy: It's from the bleeding effect, you're taking on more than your ancestor's memories, you're taking on their skills too.
• Desmond: Skills?
• Lucy: You're more receptive now, so if everything goes well, everything Ezio learns in the Animus, you'll learn too.
• Desmond: You really think that this will work? That I'll become an Assassin?
• Lucy: You already are an Assassin, you'll just be better at it.
• Shaun: Yeah, hopefully much better at it. I watched the tapes from Abstergo, you didn't even try and escape.
• Desmond: What a dick.

Rebecca

• Rebecca: Hey Desmond, what's up?
• Desmond: Just wondering what's yor role in all this.
• Rebecca: Me? I take care of the Baby. It's my job to keep her up and running.
• Desmond: Baby? You mean the Animus.
• Rebecca: Actually, I prefer Animus two-point-oh since Baby's twice as awesome than anything you'll find at Abstergo. The Templars may have deeper pockets, but they have no ambition, no passion, no competetive edge! That's why, event with all their resources, anything they can do, I can do better. Faster too.
