So...so what? HIVE are not petty crooks that can get lost in the shuffle if records are lost. Everyone knows the shit you're guilty of, the Planet has put every move you've ever made in ink. Action Comics 551

Wisptober Day 21 : Honey “Roaming through a forest of dead trees is a living suit of armour.  Even from a distance, you can see the gleam of golden honey dripping between the cracks and hear the buzzing of a hundred thousand bees.” I like to think he stand at the edge of the woods looking over the field while his bees polinate.:3 (he spooks the farmers but they tolarate him)

why is it always "you have an infestation" and "oh my god why are you covered in lesions" and never "how is the wasp's nest in your attic? is it nice? does it thrum with life and malice? does it sing that you are beautiful, that you are a home, that you can be fully consumed by what loves you?"

Fun fact: the stingless bees Tetragonula carbonaria can make beautiful spiral structures in their hives to house their young!

Jane Prentiss, in her statement to the Magnus Institute: "I'm not one of those fools chasing fractals."

The hive sings so sweetly, but apparently, it also just shit talks the spiral sometimes

ML inheritance AU character concept dump! Plus some Madame Orpheus inspos I had and wanted to include after seeing @wisteriasymphony tags on the og post! (also renamed Harelequin officially, so thank you for another pun!) The last doodle is also why alya's hood does not have ears- but let's just call it intentional character design 🫡

i've heard of the horn of war but this is ridiculous (x)

(btw this isn't the end result of the other picture, this is actually what it was supposed to be, but then i got too invested in making it look like a very cool piece asdgfds)

Inktober day 30: fear, featuring Aurash

“Imagine the fifty-two moons of Fundament lining up in the sky. (It wouldn’t take all fifty-two, of course: just a few massive moons. But this is my deepest fear.) Imagine their gravity pulling on the Fundament sea, lifting it into a swollen bulge...

Imagine that bulge collapsing as the syzygy passed. A wave big enough to swallow civilizations. A God-Wave.”

So I noticed back in Euloch's original lore tab that he talks about Luzaku using a Shredder, typically an Acolyte weapon, and Bungie didn't forget that! Ikora has a convo with her in the lost sector about an Acolyte with her name and she confirms that she went into the portal as one then came out as a Wizard. So yeah, new Hive trans icon.

I heard something about that but people didn't have the full text of the dialogue with Ikora, but now I can actually see the line.

Luzaku: The Sky greets you. Ikora Rey: Luzaku, there's a report I have of an Acolyte with your name that once spared a Guardian during the first assault by the Lucent Brood on Mars. But I see a Wizard here before me. With a normal Hive, I'd assume you'd taken on a new morph. But we know so little about Hive Lightbearers. Are you the same Luzaku? Luzaku: This one is Luzaku. This one was reforged — for a purpose. Now this one seeks to understand that purpose. Ikora Rey: You're saying the Light changed you? Luzaku: After passing through the threshold and arriving here... this one was changed. Ikora Rey: How? Why? Luzaku: This one does not know. But this one welcomes you to join her in contemplation on it. Ikora Rey: Perhaps... another time. Thank you, Luzaku.

That's really interesting because regular Hive do this in general and Ikora mentions this as well. All Hive go from thrall to acolyte and then choose to become a wizard or a knight. In a way, all Hive are trans by default. So I'm not surprised to see an acolyte becoming a wizard, since that's just how they normally work, but it's incredibly interesting for the Lucent Hive.

I always had a question about Lucent acolytes because they're technically rezed at an incomplete life stage. Can they ever grow out of being one? This seems to imply yes, but possibly also because of the portal so it's unclear if this is something that all Lucent Hive would go through or if it's just Luzaku because of the portal. Perhaps the Traveler's Light affected the growth somehow and pushed Luzaku into a new life stage, despite having a Ghost? I'd really like to know more. Hopefully Luzaku will be a way to get us more info on the Lucent Hive going forward.
