It's my personal headcanon that Charles is a fan of erotic asphyxiation so I had to throw that in there haha

And that's exactly how you were supposed to see him so I'm glad for that! I imagine that Charles is mostly always the way we see him in the beginning around Haytham, it's just that Connor hates him (for good reason) so obviously when we're playing through his point of view, we're not going to see sweet Charles.

No problem, OP!
