This Is A Very Big Oof.

This is a very big oof.

kind of an insanely funny and tone deaf thing for mithrax to say to crow, who amanda refused to forgive before she died

Awwww

Ghost buddies

Here have a wip

Finally! I always use these as my desktop background

finally a full res version of the banner art 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

This! I immediately thought of Sjur when Crow and Mara were talking about loss. I wish she brought up Sjur

caught up with the seasonal quest and i'm just absolutely baffled that mara didn't bring up sjur in her radio message with crow. not only is it a missed opportunity but it seems like such an obvious and fitting choice? why would she not bring up her dead wife when crow is struggling with grieving someone he loved? especially since crow has his memories of his life as uldren back and presumably remembers sjur... there was even a perfect opening when mara is like "i know what it's like to lose someone you love" and crow goes "are you talking about me?" she could've then talked about losing sjur and how hard it was and how she dealt with it etc. it really did feel like they meant to bring sjur back at some point but tbh at this point i don't even think they remember she exists :(

Minerva's Shell Collection

Okay, so did a little doodle of most of the shells in Minerva's collection. He loves having different shells for every occasion. He loves Sagira's shell, and so many of his shells incorporate floating bits that don't really protect a ghost, but are fashionable. Here are a few reasons why he has each shell.

Rival Warlock Shell: Minerva's default shell. It is his absolute favorite. He likes to be on theme with Bubo's bird name (Bubo is Latin for Owl) and she's a warlock, so he decides to wear this most of the time. When people think of the Young Wolf's ghost, they picture this shell. Plus, Bubo painted the shell for him so it's a pretty blue instead of yellow and he adores it. Buuuut, in game, when you have your ghost scan something with this shell on, it's always upsidedown, so my boyfriend and I have an ongoing joke that Minerva is always a cheery little ghost who likes to be upsidedown and sleeps like that. Edgewise (my bf's ghost) always makes fun of Minerva for it and thinks he is a weird ghost.

Kill Tracker Shell: This was the first shell I used a lot in Destiny (I started with Beyond Light), so I see this as Minerva's first shell besides the basic general shell (and then Minerva became addicted to buying new shells and all of Bubo's glimmer/bright dust disappeared).

Gyro Shell: Minerva wears this when Bubo decides to be a voidwalker with Nezarec's Sin. She wears a very dark green eliksni robes with it (the ones from Season of the Splicer) and so Minerva puts on the gyro shell (with the vex decay shader). It is one of his favorite shells. He likes seeing the three circles rotate around each other and his core.

Arc Shell: Bubo hates being a stormcaller. Like, it's her lest favorite super. But Ikora and Chalco keep telling her to work on it (I imagine Chalco Yong being an arcstrider, so she helps Bubo with arc when Ikora is too busy being warlock vanguard). Sooooo, Minerva got this shell to motivate Bubo to use arc. Bubo was kinda forced by Ikora to use arc for three months, but she quickly went back to her usual. The shell is a bit too flashy for Minerva, but he wore it for those three months and he would do it again in a heartbeat if Ikora wanted Bubo to do that again.

Simulation Shell: Minerva loves a good golden shell and this one is so intricate. While some think it is strange he wants to wear something so clearly Vex inspired, Minerva doesn't really care since Bubo has gone against some worse threats in Sol than the Vex. Plus, can't he just appreciate their architectural flair sometimes?

Wayfinder's Shell: Of course his guardian is a reef-born awoken, so Minerva had to have an awoken shell. He loves the simplicity of it, yet how it screams awoken. Plus, another shell with gold lol. I imagine either Minerva found it in the city or Petra gave it to him one Dawning, as a present for both Bubo and Minerva.

Age of Tomorrow Shell: This one...this one speaks of Minerva's depression after watching Sundance and Cayde dying in one fell swoop. He and Bubo were the ones who watched as Cayde died and so for a little while, Minerva stopped wearing his frilly shells, especially as they chased down the Barons. But eventually with help from his ghost friends and guardians, he goes back to his usual selection of shells.
