So ummmm I actually had a fanfiction wip of Athrys hearing of Eramis‘ location and traveling to Sol, only to unfortunately arrive at the same time as the incident that causes Eramis to „always look scorn in the eye“ occurs and well… let’s just say Eramis‘ trauma grows a thousandfold

I do not think I have the strength to write it anymore and I don‘t think we all have the strength to read it with what’s going on in Revenant

Dreams of Armageddon - Chapter 1

After Eramis suffers a life changing injury from a battle following Twilight Gap, Athrys must find a way to help her mate and their new clutch of hatchlings through a tumultuous time of change.

I have literally only written this one chapter so far and fragments of the second. I know where it ends but not how it goes. Come and enjoy the ride!

Do you guys remember that eramis had a wife? I know some of you do.

Here's another possibility of another cannon fact that you guys may or may not know about eramis...

How I found it was when I was digging around on Google last night out of curiosity while I was revisting the tumblr posts about athrys (I was even listening to her lullaby last night (which means i had another wierd night)) on who eidos biological mother could be.

What I've found out last was well ummm...

This is the reddit post that supports this theory on eramis being edios biological mother.

This is the YouTube video about queen Mara confirming that eramis may be in fact be eidos biological mother. Idk y why the won't show up in my post.

These are screenshots taken from the reddit post.

This was taken straight from my discord thread that I've made to send athrys tumblr post links in for easier access. This shows what my thoughts on this was after learning what I've learned from last night.

"Learned another thing while on a trip at night after learning eramis had a wife in the last year during the winter.

Eramis is possibly eidos biological mother.

Which kinda explains why eramis had protected eido from the hive while eido went to grab the last relic which contained the remains of nezreic.

This also kinda explains why eramis was kinda so professional during the parlay thing and why eramis has told eido about her father's past.

But if eramis is actually eidos biological mother then how did eramis get impregnated and who was the donor or who was the biological father."

What are your guys thoughts on this. I also didn't find any posts on this site about this and I may update this post if I go digging further later. Just thought this was worth some sharing on this site.

My absolute crack-fiend headcannon for the upcoming events in Destiny 2 is as follows:

Eramis will become our ally, but not from an obvious source, instead by the return of Lady Efrideet, who allied with Athrys and the Eliksni, whom Eramis sent away before her time with the darkness in Beyond Light.

I can see Efrideet's peaceful group having common grounds with Athrys, who was described as more gentle and nurturing. Along with the assumption that both groups were hiding in refuge beyond the solar system or on the edges of it.

Bungie will create a wlw couple and go “Everyone attached to them yet? Good, good… roll in the horrors and unbearable grief! At least one of them cannot make it out of this situation! GO, GO, GO!”

2 & 16 for fandom ask game (Destiny, ofc) >:3c

2. a headcanon you weren't sure about at first but have come to like

ahhh i was hoping nobody would ask me this one bc i don't really have an answer 😅 i haven't been exposed to a ton of headcanons but the ones i have, i generally liked them from the start

16. a tiny detail in canon that you want more people to appreciate

One of Variks's idle lines is him singing a few lines of the lullaby from the Athrys's Embrace lore tab, which absolutely had me making a sound like an asthamtic tea kettle when I heard it the first time.

I've seen a few messages to this effect and while it's well meaning and likely correct, it misses the point I'm trying to make.

There were backgrounds for: Bi Mara Sov, Lesbian Eramis, Pan Drifter, Gay Saint-14, and Nonbinary Nimbus.

Drifter is canonically (as in, within the story of the game itself) flirtatious with people of multiple genders. While this doesn't necessarily mean a person is bi or pan, it's a narrative context clue that he is, in fact, one of those.

Likewise Nimbus. They/them pronouns and androgynous appearance/presentation doesn't necessarily mean a person is nonbinary IRL ... but within a story it's kind of a big clue that this character isn't on the gender binary.

Saint-14 is an interesting case in that he's only ever demonstrated romantic interest in a man (Osiris) canonically, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's gay and not a different flavor of MLM; however I've never seen bi or pan headcanons for him, or talk of him being anything other than gay. Still, this post was confirmation that he's exclusively into men.

Mara falls much into the same case as Saint: she's only ever shown romantic interest in a woman: Sjur Eido. The "Helmet Stayed On" lore muddied the water and set off a debate about whether she's lesbian or bi/pan, but was canonically clarified to be non-sexual and non-romantic later on, convincing a lot of folks (myself included) that she's lesbian. Of course, plenty of real life bi folks only ever date people of the same or other genders for lots of different reasons, but in a fictional narrative exclusive interest in the same gender kinda points in the direction of gay/lesbian. Except she isn't. By word of god (note I don't say canon because it isn't confirmed within the text of Destiny) Mara Sov is bi.

And ditto Eramis. Only interested in a woman, Athrys. If we only look at the text of Destiny, does that exclude her being bi...? Well, no. But word of god confirms that she is in fact lesbian.

I don't think there's a lesbophobic / biphobic conspiracy at Bungie because of this, but I am trying to point out the fragility of what constitutes a major character lore drop occurring via social media post, because all it takes is a misplaced file or deleted blog entry to remove that piece of lore from the story. This wouldn't be a discussion if Eramis' lesbianism or Mara Sov's bisexuality was in the canon of the work through context clues the same way that, for example, Drifter's pansexuality or Nimbus' nonbinary gender identity is.

not bungie deleting the bi mara and lesbian eramis pics ...........

very glad eramis can go home but oh my god shes gonna have so much to explain to everyone. like hello yes i did pick up a magic stick that can fix the planet. athrys is gonna have to stand there and be like. no guys shes not crazy.... shes honest about it. eramis please dont tell them its made of our dead

I love how you're saying this like it's Athrys who's gonna be telling folks that Eramis found a magic Heal Riis stick from Sol, as if Eramis herself would not likely have to explain to Athrys that no, she's not crazy, yes, the Echo is made of all of their dead, yes, they're speaking to her, no, Sol was not worth it, it's an absolute hellhole the likes of which you'd never understand, etc etc, while Athrys just stands there and boggles in amazement

All the Eliksni who had actually been to Sol would of course be able to affirm the fact that no, Eramis isn't crazy, Sol is Just Like That, but Athrys, who turned back when they reached Sol, is an outlier and probably wouldn't understand right away. Anyone who might have turned back after a couple centuries in it would probs just nod along and be like 'yeah that tracks Sol is fuckin crazy' tho

more loose nonsense + inspiration. just trying 2 have fun with my fav Lesbian Lobsters

[thefirstknife]

Do we know what happened to Eramis' mate and hatchlings? Like are they alive, out there somewhere? I know they're "sleeping in a ship long departed from [sol system]" but do we know if that's more euphemistic for "they're dead" or more like "they're in cyrostasis/suspended animation/etc."? If they're alive it would be nice to be able to reunite Eramis with them somehow, someday. :(

We know from Achilles Weaves A Cocoon that it's literal, not euphemistic. Here:

"You make a habit of serving queens who will abandon you," Namrask whispers back. "Eramis is doomed, Variks. She is Whirlwind-touched. As I was, once."

"She knows what she risks. Why else would she have sent her mate and children to another star?"

"Athrys is gone?" Woeful news; she was Eramis's guiding glint.

Combined with the lore we got this season, it seems like she made sure that Athrys and their children have been sent away to be hidden and safe. It's better than them being dead, but also clearly them being away highly negatively affected Eramis.

I really hope they will be reunited at some point and that we'll manage to help Eramis join us.

[grody-cosplay-n-crap]

The Bungie writers seem to be either purposefully retconning or just ignoring old lore pertaining to Eliksni (which is the kind I know the most about lol) and I’m not chill about some of it lmfao. 

For instance Misraaks should 100% be a grumpy teen Vandal when Sjur finds him and when he finds Eido because it’s great. 

Th one though that will make me so incredibly pissed though is if they make Athrys really be alive.
