At first, I thought this was about the actual Leonardo Da Vinci. Like the gay painter.
Then I looked at the tags and saw this was about Assassin’s Creed.
I love that Leonardo Da Vinci just...
I've seen this a lot and I bet you have too; when a publisher puts out a blurb for a scifi/fantasy/what have you book that basically just describes one bit of representation, a vague description of a pairing trope, and then maybe something that barely has to do with the genre. I've seen it in book reviews and recommendations as well, where you take a book into a quick phrase that overall is a really cynical way to describe rep and doesn't explain anything about the story. Something like:
PANSEXUAL ALCHEMISTS. ENEMIES TO MURDERERS TO RESURRECTED LOVERS. THREE UNIVERSES EACH WITH A SPACE STATION. NEED I SAY MORE? 😏
Another example is the cynical "just use the comps as the pitch line even on the official book descriptions and metadata" type, like so:
THE GREAT BRITISH BAKE-OFF MEETS JURASSIC PARK 3 BUT WITH REP.
So I dare ya to make one of your own because the cynical-ness of this feels like it could be goofed on, especially the big publisher blurb style where they tell you so little about your book's actual plot or characters or anything. It can be your WIP or just something absurd you make up for this, whatever you wanna do! The less plot and character in your blurb the better!
See also this post for the vibe.
I'mma try it with Rising Shards.
LESBIAN MEET CUTE IN MONSTER GIRL SCHOOL. ENOUGH SAID. 😏
So yeah something like that!

How many other queer girls are into nerdy girls? I’m going into college soon and I need to know if I can impress beautiful women with my 300 slide PowerPoint about Batman. I’m also going to try and wear different superhero T-shirts everyday, so I can be known as a nerd.
I’m clearly going to be alone romantically for a very long time. I will be able to find other nerds though.
“it’s weird for queer minors to be friends with queer adults” oh my god. ohhh my god.
