Does that mean you *need* to do assembly for downstream analysis?

Are you not aligning to a genome? Or do you have a genome, but also
want to do to transcript assembly to identify novel transcripts? Maybe
your genome is poorly annotated? What type of data are you working
with here? Plant? Animal? Which plant/animal, etc ...

I'm not sure what to tell you, partly because you're not giving a lot
of information in your question/answers. You are giving facts about
your data, but no motivation regarding the question you're trying to
answer, and what is stopping you from doing so.

You also say:

OK.

So your analysis twice, once w/ 51bp, and again w/ 100bp -- see how
they compare.

If you need to assemble transcripts first, do so w/ the 100bp reads,
then quantify their expression with each library separately.
