Hey, you got a gun I can borrow?

crow accidentally kills cade-6 again in the final shape

[soigotintodestiny]

might be a hot take but Shadowkeep should be free to play and Beyond Light has no reason to ever be full price again at this point

"You've no idea how fortunate you are to be my chosen. You hold the flesh of a god in your hands. You are mere steps away from our salvation. Only Light[1] and Dark[1] together[x2] can unlock my way back into your world."

K. You bring Medusa before Rahool. "Ah," he sniffs, "another battle trophy? Pre-Collapse, post-Foreboding, a covert intelligence designed to watch over a high-risk colony mission. Allow me to decrypt her for you." He issues you several tokens, a rare-quality fusion rifle, a shader, and a letter. The letter reads "Achieve Light[+Dark] Level 999[x2] and defeat Dûl Incaru in a one-person fireteam to unlock the true ending of the Dreaming City."

"That's it... keep going..."

[n7viper]

can you even imagine how good the warmind cutscene would be with blood? the one after we first see xol, just before the boss fight? being buried in the snow, blood soaking into it before we manage to free ourselves and ghost heals us? do you even get it??

i think being called a fake destiny 2 fan by someone on tumblr is going in my memoir. that's so fucking funny. sorry you searched my blog and found only cursory mentions of it, or didn't read the tags on the posts where i mention knowledge of multiple expansions' worth of lore, and decided i hadn't played it since cayde-6 died. it's just that nothing worth talking about has happened in that game in six years. so.

I'm bi. It's 10000% hetbaiting. Would be hilarious if the figurative horse in question didn't by now amount to a few eohippus vertebrae caught in a hydraulic press, with how old & dead it is.

The markedly cold and distant fictional post-human woman who was decreed bi via word-of-god (image of god? there's literally only the one screensaver with the bi flag) and hasn't displayed personal interest in anyone but women in-text.... probably didn't screw a male she barely regarded as a person at the time (since she saw all Risen as creepy inconvenient creatures) during their one private meeting which functioned as a funeral for her wife of centuries.... done in private so as to avoid letting her guard down around her court, done with him so she could understand an aspect of her warrior wife which she seemed to share with Shaxx as her friend, done forcibly and with his face under a helmet because he also didn't trust Mara, though he left with a crush and she gained some respect for Shaxx specifically, perhaps Risen generally. This echoes what Sjur did with Misraaks specifically, Eliksni generally. She set down the first stone of the bridge. It's an excellent way to honour her memory. It's disgusting that it's completely drowned out by trite superficial het memes that I struggle to see as an interpretation & not just a display of either ignorance / media illiteracy, lack of interest in the story, or lack of respect for sapphic relationships. And like of course you're welcome to have whatever headcanon you want, but to make the extraordinary claim that they unequivocally canonically screwed would require extraordinary overhwelming evidence. Which a single sentence in that one lore tab is not.

What we have can at most, being extremely generous with the mara/shaxx crowd, be said to be ambiguous. The vast majority of the raunchy interpretation adherents are manchildren who haven't read a single paragraph of lore (& lack the reading comprehension to glean anything from it anyway) & are thus usually unaware Sjur is a thing in the story at all, though. So this meme is made in the spirit of having seen a dizzying amount of cold takes and worse humour and vomitworthy imagery about it. Not for uh, "bi erasure". Lmfao.

The latest audio in which Riven-with-Shaxx's-voice alludes to the incident / cringissimo onesided crush shaxx developed as a result (bless his heart) / shit-tier fanon.... is further hetbaiting. It was delicious. You're welcome to continue falling for it if it suits you though lmao :)

updated my old Sjur Eido meme w/ extra Educational Material for the loreless + maidenless

the fact i can’t go back and play so much of destiny2’s story makes me so sad

[dawnblade]

so fascinated in the difference between stuff i really like and stuff that flips a switch in my brain. i know ive brought the topic up multiple times its just i keep trying to find a way to properly articulate the experience lol

i had a temporary hitman phase a little while ago but it didnt flip the switch in my brain the way trigun did

outer wilds is one of my favorite games of all time but it didnt flip the switch in my brain the way undertale did

i dont know how else to describe it except for a switch being flipped lol. idk, its like i start learning about/reading/watching/etc this new thing and something metaphorically clicks in my brain. i get attached like a magnet LOLLLL

[godhatesrobyn]

the absolute feral unhinged feelings I get whenever I go a week w/o playing last wish is insane (I do this raid far too much)

[ahamkara-apologist]

you there. do you play destiny on steam. I Will send the forsaken pack asap. everyone deserves to have trinity ghoul

AUGH ITS A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT- I started playing Destiny 2 on the Xbox app on my computer because when I got said computer, it came with a free gamepass. I wanted to play Beyond Light because hooog big sexy aliens, but didn't want to buy the expansion because a.) I didn't know if I would like Destiny at the time, and b.) I started playing Destiny on 12/30/21 (if my first screenshot of a dead dreg is anything to go off of), so BL was still pretty expensive. I blew through the expansion, loved it, then played through Forsaken literal days before it was vaulted as well. And then, because I didn't know cross-platforming was A Thing since I didn't even START playing video games til 2018, I went ahead and bought Witch Queen on said platform, then Lightfall, and didn't realize that expansions aren't tracked on accounts til I bought Beyond Light on Steam during a sale and realized my mistake.

So uh. Technically I'm on Xbox, despite never owning the console and playing exclusively on PC. And tbh I'm still not really sure how any of this works.

I'm Aren#6620 on the Xbox/microsoft store and ruthlesslistener on Steam if it's any help; I did link them in my attempt to get everything finangled. You don't have to get it for me though anon, because as sweet as that is and as much as I'd appreciate it, 20 bucks is nothing to sneeze at!
