Mornings with D2 Characters
I will take requests for those I miss, but here’s the most popular ones for this blog.
Drifter
Mornings? More like late afternoons
He sleeps in really late because of gambit, and it’s pretty much hopeless to get up before him because he’s got a death grip around your waist
Has perfected the art of the perfect omelette/pancake/waffle/French toast
Really if it’s a breakfast food, he can make it and he’s eager to show off his cooking skills
After breakfast the day resumed as normal. No routine for self-care or upkeep.
Osiris & Saint-14
Osiris is forced to get up at “reasonable” times by saint-14
But since saint is usually up and out of the house to run trails before reasonable times, it’s left to you to make sure Osiris stays asleep
It’s not a hard job: little solar, and he’s melting back to dream land
Osiris has a whole self-care routine, so you make breakfast before the two of you start your day
If saint is home, nothing gets done and the three of you are in bed all day (assuming there’s no further assignments)
Saladin
Gets up at the ass crack of Dawn, but he lets you sleep
Mostly because it takes forever to feed the wolves and he doesn’t need to show you them all whiny for breakfast
Tidies his beard, has a shower, goes on a patrol, then makes breakfast. Only after does he wake you up, usually with breakfast in bed
He’ll crash down next to you and the two of you will discuss the day’s plan before getting to work
Zavala
He knows the value of routine
Everyday is the same: get up, shower, make breakfast, leave for work
There are absolutely no days he can be coaxed into an extra hour of sleep
But he’s always polite enough to make & eat breakfast with you, and if you’re up early enough he’ll shower with you
Shaxx
Same as Saladin - he’s up at the ass crack of Dawn
It’s mostly due to his workout routine
He has an obnoxiously large breakfast so usually he cooks and then wakes you up (unless you workout with him)
Cruicible waits for no man, so he had no time to spare
Spider
He can be as lazy as he’d like, and uses it to his advantage. Meeting he doesn’t want to go to? Oh, you just wanted more cuddles.
Breakfast is usually brought to the two of you in his throne room, so the only thing keeping you from sleeping in the whole day is hunger
He is the worlds worst person to wake up with as he’ll exhaust all his energy into drawing out cuddles and trying to coax you back to bed
Misraaks
There is always someone who needs him so early mornings are frequent
He tries to linger in bed, but inevitably he has to get up and tend to house of light
House of light is low on resources so most of the time it’s you bringing him back breakfast
Variks
He ain’t got nothing better to do than to lounge about all day, and he does just that
If he needs an excuse he uses the fact his “bones” are aching, which is guaranteed to work on nearly anyone
He’ll unintentionally fall asleep on you, prompting you to go back to bed or get up and make something to eat
Per his hair and he’s in heaven - and who can deny a purring eliksni some extra cuddles?

thoughts on season of splicer ending
warning: spoilers for the entire season, general discussion of leaks, and absolutely being Bungie critical. Basically trying to write this out and figure out my own thoughts in the writing
I guess my first thoughts are what everyone's talking about: Osiris.
All the wild theories about if he's been replaced, controlled, playing 5d chess, etc. tldr: leaks say that from season of the Hunt it hasn't been Osiris but Savathun. Yeah I've read people's compilations of proof until I rapidly got bored with them. I'll be bluntly honest, if Bungie is going for some sort of imposter story-line then they're doing a fucking awful job at telling it.
a) A good imposter story-line needs to establish to the audience that there is the possibility or replacement/control
b) characters in the story themselves should be aware of point A and be actively considering it in their decision making
c) if the imposter is doing something the original didn't than clearly show audience the imposter is there.
I would say Bungie didn't do any of these, no the lore page of Savathun's human disguise falling apart around her doesn't count, because Bungie has long had a problem of putting story relevant plot details in lore pages and then not referencing them ingame. Lore should accentuate story, not provide key details to the story.
If you want to see a good imposter story-line look at Forsaken, and how they worked to make it obvious to someone who didn't know who Mara Sov was that something was up.
Most of the proof people cite is either cherry picking ambiguous things Osiris has said, or pointing out inconsistencies in writing. IMO not much of the evidence holds up because multiple characters this season (Saint, Lakshmi, Mithrax) have been written inconsistently with past appearances and without nuance; because their character has to carry the plot in a certain way or there are limits on recording dialogue for override/expunge.
My point in recapping the Osiris thing, is that from a thematic view at the end of the season Osiris is Osiris and I'm judging the story from the view of the season not how will the story be in the future.
very cynical take that as much praise as Bungie wants for working to make a high profile gay relationship be shown in game after a writer confirmed it on twitter
if leaks are right: if  Osiris hasn't been Osiris for the past 3 seasons then none of the scenes with Saint are real or matter, and it invalidates all the emotional grief of Sagira being dead. It's 3 seasons of character development and effort wasted
or: they took the first chance they could to make one of them an unsympathetic villain and write him out of the story.
(yeah destiny has other queer character but how many of them are alive and matter to the story? When was the last time Ana's girlfriend was mentioned?)
The game is clear that for all the talk about "vex tech influence" Lakshmi's views and choices were her own, so the same for Osiris: he is responsible for helping Lakshmi and is responsible for all the civilian deaths, he's the 2ndary Human villain of the season.
Which brings me to my point (that I've seen others say) is that Bungie should have given a second thought to having their all of their human antagonists be PoC characters this expansion. Osiris, Lakshmi, and Saladin last season. For Lakshmi and Saladin they weren't just antagonists, they were written to be bigots for the community to dislike. Yes Destiny has a lot of PoC characters and anyone can be a villain, but IMO its a bad look from a company who talks so much about social justice. It wouldn't matter except Bungie wanted the message of the season to be anti-racism, and I'm comparing it within the context of how often minorities are the villains in games/US media. I don't think it was deliberately done, I just think it is something that like last season's issues with proving grounds and antisemitism they didn't care or bother with a sensitivity reader.
It's obvious this season they were going for a very obvious reference to Trump and modern day fears about refugees with Lakshmi, and it's a bad look that they did with a Indian female character and refugees are the enemy crab aliens. I'm also not saying that female characters can't be villains, but did the Bungie writers not think about just how nasty gamers would get in either slurs, insults, or expressing wishes for violence, and how pervasive and visible it would be?
I'm genuinely curious why the writers went for such a heavy handed analogy, and a story-line that feels like it comes from an afterschool special. The Eliksni have been enemies in atleast 4 expansions now, there could have been a more nuanced story other than "House of Light is good keep on killing all other Fallen". At the end of the season the game treated the attack on the City being Lakshmi and Osiris' fault, and all the people who don't like the Eliksni (say the people doing hate crimes in the lore) left with the factions so "problem resolved" . Lakshmi gets a simple karmatic death, in an area where multiple reddit threads express how they love tbagging the corpse. The ending cutscene didn't feel super inspiring to me it just felt unrealistic not just in real life where things aren't that simple but also within Destiny's story; the "you are my family" line felt cringe to me, probably because it felt unearned.
That's kind of the problem of the season isn't it, that the earliest planned game based decisions like having a Vex seasonal enemy and getting rid of the Factions determined the cast of characters with ties to the Vex and factions. So you just fight x many Vex bosses until you defeat Quria, then there's a break for Solstace, but on Reset-Tuesday with no warning things escalate because its epilogue time.
Sadly I forget who said that "it felt like the plot needed to hit one beat a week" meaning one issue had to get resolved enough for the community to talk about (except for when we take 3 weeks off for solstice). Each week there has to be some sort of hook to avoid the overblown "content drought". So multiple times you will have characters change their mind or their deep held beliefs after one counter argument is presented. (big example is Saint changing his mind not over the season but after one cutscene). City politics and factions don't matter aside from dialogue in a few different weeks because they'll be gone at the end of the season but in the meantime characters needed to talk about something to prompt fandom engagement. example: the fandom argues about governance of the last city for a while before the argument burn out since the relevant lore wasn't designed to hold up to close scrutiny.
just, I'm a politically active leftist in a red conservative state so maybe i just find this exhausting since I deal with similar issues irl and am more prone to thinking this season was tone deaf.
tldr: that wow this turned out really negative. Which I didn't really expect considering how much I enjoyed the first few weeks of the season. I enjoyed a lot of the gameplay this season (I really enjoy fun gambit aka Overrides and VoG). But as for replaying the story on my other characters, I don't think I'll bother.

You know you have a problem when you can't find any Lord saladin x reader stories and it upsets you. His voice doesn't help my need either.
Hoo boy my voice kink has been going haywire these last few days. Saladin’s voice?? Is to die for??? He’s so growly and stern and yet warm and affectionate at the same time. Make me armour and call me princess, Lord S. 
I didn’t know that the same voice actor is Reaper in Overwatch and I spent a very toe-curly twenty minutes last night listening to a compilation of all his lines and melting everywhere. Hot daaaaamn, Reaper you’re doing things to me. 
Saladin x reader stories sound like a very good idea, who wants to have a go? I’ve got my hands full with Zavala, Mithrax, Shiro and Shaxx right now but someone should try writing some!

Mithrax seeing his partner take care if some hatchlings?
Guardian Reader (titan)
You'd volunteered to help the House of Light ever since you'd heard Eliksni were living in the tower
Falling for Misraaks came slowly and over many weeks of helping out, and required one of the house members to point out that he was courting you. Now the two of you look back on it and laugh.
You started wearing armour with a lot of fur that resembled Captain capes
Hatchlings love this as they can hide in the soft fur and feel your solar radiate off your body. They won't go near you if you have stasis as it's too cold for them.
You have been "assigned" to help with the hatchling care because of this
Misraaks has just about every instinct set off when he sees you with hatchlings. They always look so happy and you always look so happy and he finds himself desperately wanting to be the reason you're holding those hatchlings... and not just because he's a Kell.
He tries fluffing himself up and standing straighter when he's near you, a custom that's lost on you. He also starts giving you more banners and the trinkets he finds on the field. He forgets that you don't know the indepth cultures and customs of Eliksni courtship.
In the background, all that can be heard is the distant laughter of Variks who has to put up with being Misraak's confidant

Mithrax with a partner whose name also(?) gets there name mispronounced ALOT and its also a super fucken long name
The two of you make a mutual agreement to call each other by the correct names
If he hears someone mispronounce your name he will immediately correct them. Even if it’s Zavala. Misraaks fears no one.
Goes out of his way to learn what your name means and then finds pet names that mean similar things
He could be mid conversation but if you used the correct name he’d whip around and be like “what does my little {insert eliksni pet name here} need?”
Due to recent events, Saint-14 is the second person to start actively using the correct pronunciation of your name and it starts a chain reaction because here’s this really loud Titan shouting your full name across the hangar with confidence enough to rival the sun
