Cloudstrider Monuments

Okay, i was gonna write this a while ago but never did. So, my boyfriend and I were hanging out in the Hall of Heroes after we finished the Strider exotic quest. My bf realized it there seemed to be way too many monuments around the room, considering the few things we knew off hand:

The collapse was 1600 years ago. We know this tidbit from Petra Venj. In the lore entry "Refusal" from Forsaken, there is this line: "She [Petra] bites back the rest: how she wishes that back in two-thousand-and-whatever, when the Darkness hurled mankind off the height of its Golden Age to plummet sixteen centuries into barbarism, it had done just a slightly better job." So we know that Neomuna have been around for approximately 1600 years.

Cloudstriders live 10 years, due to the augmentations they go through.

There are only ever two cloudstriders at once.

Alright, with this knowledge, we decided to count up all the monuments in the room and around it, which gave us 480 monuments. This number might not be entirely accurate, but it gives us a good estimate. Now let's divide this by two (since there are two cloudstriders at once) and we are down to 240. If this is multiplied by 10 (for the max amount of years a cloudstrider could live) we get 2400 years.

2400 years of Cloudstriders. Now, obviously this doesn't take into account that cloudstriders can die on duty (like Rohan), but it seems that the Neomuni live in relative peace besides occasionally dealing with the Vex. This also doesn't take into account the early days of Neomuna. We don't know how many cloudstriders there are at once originally, but it seems like there have never been many. We also don't really know how new/old of a concept cloudstriders are. Was Strider, the first cloudstrider, around 1600 years ago or more recently? So yeah, if we think cloudstriders have been around for 1600 years and you minus 1600 from 2400, that's still a good 800 years. It seems weird that there would be that many Cloudstriders. But who knows.

Honestly, my bf and I probably just over analyzed the Hall of Heroes after we got done roasting Quinn for being a bad archivist and having none of this important archival material to Neomuna's history backed up. So take this all with a grain of salt. Except for the 1600 years detail. I think a lot of people don't realize that D2 takes place in at least 3600 CE (and it's probably a lot later than that cause of we don't know how long the golden age was).

crow headcannons 👽👽

@exodyss for the picture (love this btw)

ANYWAYS 😼

In my mind I think he would be just walking next to someone and would zone out then the person would walk away not realizing crow is just standing there, then he would realize they are not next to him and start freaking out and hiding from other people (the other person would be Osiris) then the person would realize that crow isn’t next to them and would have to ask around to find him and after 10 minutes some random person would find him hiding behind some box and would tell the person who is looking for him where he is

he Loves dawning but can’t go out in the tower that much cuz he’s scared of other people just randomly taking his mask off

he makes sure he makes cookies for everyone he can (even if they taste bad) but he would awkwardly just hand them to the person and thank them quickly and run away.

osiris and saint 14 adopted him and nimbus and they are like big happy family 🤠

he likes to hang out in the EDZ and explore the forests cuz he likes to hike and he loves being free (ya know cuz he used to be a slave) he likes to do really anything outside, hike, fish, swim. As long as there aren’t any other guardians that might kill him

hes really good friend with the guardian (I know some of you crow haters won’t be friends with him but it’s real they are at least kinda friends but it’s your guardian so-) anyways the guardian and him would hang out pretty often, either the guardian teaching him some tricks or them doing some missions. He admires the guardian cuz the guardian is like the second person to ever support him (glint is the first obvi) anyways he would just copy what the guardian does when he sees them do tricks in combat.

he mostly just asks yes or no questions when he’s having a conversation with the guardian so the guardian can just nod or shake their head (cuz they are mostly selectively mute) sometimes when it’s a serious question the guardian might answer or their ghost will.

crow doesn’t mind the guardian is selectively mute, but it’s a little hard to communicate, but they both manage.

glint has to convince him to meet new people cuz crow would think they hate him cuz he used to be Uldren, I would think glint would annoy him till he went to social events or meetings but glint doesn’t have to force him when he wants to go to something like hanging out with friends.

i think he would be pretty good friends with Shaw han, Shaw might not understand his situation and at first might try to kill him but then someone stops Shaw and crow explains, then they like meet and talk about problems they’re having/had cuz they both have trauma (trauma buddies yay)

When he gets to overwhelmed or tired he would go to ikora’s office and just hang out there till he has to leave, I would think ikora is one of his mother figures.

he would mostly try to avoid shaxx cuz he yells a lot and he’s scared that shaxx would just punch him if he saw his face. But then someone maybe ikora or saint would introduce them to each other (they would be VERY cautious) and they would explain crow’s situation then shaxx would try and be mature about it and either throw crow out a window or shake his hand, then after a while they would slightly have a good relationship and shaxx would try not to yell when crow is around cuz crow would jump when he hears shaxx yell.

This is part 1 (might or might not make a part 2)

"Yah.. I went through that with Nimbus.." (x)

My hunter Mist and Rohan watching Nimbus let her little light Echo (@mantleoflight) ride off the back of their skyboard. (Which is only going to end badly...)

I want to write angsty and fluffy things about my Guardians and their partners or husbands. But all I can do instead is just keep picturing everyone hugging one another and cuddling.

Misraaks sort of sits half-upright in bed, with most of his back against the headboard. Anthem-99 is laying flat out on his stomach against Misraaks with his body in the Kell's lap, and his face buried in his chest.

Magnus is on his side as the big-spoon, curled into Cayde-6 who is the little spoon. Magnus is bear-hugging by his husband like a small, soft plushie, while Cayde just gently rests his forehead against Magnus's heart, head beneath the Titan's chin.

Kahun and Nimbus are both laying face-first into the mattress, sprawled out flat on opposite ends of the bed. The tops of both their heads are touching, and they reach their hands out to grasp in each of their own. They're snoring loudly, dreaming of each other.

Velliks is also lying flat on the bed, all four arms wrapped around Crow, who's curled up like a kitten on Velliks's torso. Their breathing matches one another's, and neither wakes or stirs so that both of them can be peaceful together.

Gadrax is laying on his side facing Lord Shaxx who does the same. Both are asleep, but one of Shaxx's hands reaches under Gadrax's head, who returns the same with a hand beneath his. Gad's remaining three hands grasp the other of Shaxx's, linking them both as one.

I swear I am genuinely having fun in the final shape (the visual aesthetics!! prismatic!!! ghost!!!) but can I just ask now that the entire saga is laid out here in front of us:

What in the goddamn fuck was the point of Lightfall other than Strand?
