i drew miku as a destiny 2 hunter bc of a fun twitter post :]] she has been to the lighthouse hundreds of times and has every raid title 💙
#I imagine she's like Felwinter; an Exo made from an AI rather than a person#The original AI was created by Ana Bray during the late Golden Age#The project was originally just a simple system designed to test how Rasputin would interact with others#but Ana felt that Rasputin deserved a real friend; specifically one who would share his passion for music; and made her into Miku#Rasputin eventually made her an Exo body; so his oldest friend could explore the world and share her songs with everyone#of course; that history has been lost to time#nowadays; she's a legendary Hunter who spends her time braving the wilderness across the system#bringing joy and music to those who need it in the darkest corners of the world#And if you have a song to share with her; she'll carry it with her to the ends of the Earth#destiny 2#miku#sometimes you're just see Miku and you're inspired to write a paragraph of lore about her

New thing to think about dropped. I've been losing it for a week now.
So, Whisper of the Worm mission always had a portal, in the big room just before the first enemy encounter. You could always get to the portal and look into it and it would show you... Vault of Glass! Even back in the day, before VoG was in D2, you could see it. There's a corresponding portal inside of Vault of Glass from which, in D2, you could see the Whisper mission.
This area with the portal was also a part of the mission, as oracles would appear and had to be shot in the right order for the exotic ship. Original view of the portal from before vaulting, looking into the Vault of Glass:
View into Whisper from VoG when it was released in D2 in Splicer:
These two things were never in the game at the same time until Into the Light! With the return of Whisper, they're finally together so you can go into VoG and look into Whisper, and vice versa. Or at least.... you can... Once.
When I did Whisper the first time it returned, I naturally went to the portal to check. It was showing the same image as it did before; Vault of Glass. This was the situation in Into the Light, on first clear (screenshot from a friend because I only have footage of it, this is much clearer):
All is well! The portals link!
Except when I did the mission again... The portal image changed and remained changed. It's not showing Vault of Glass anymore. This is what it shows for every clear after:
Absolutely bizarre. Going through the trouble of changing the image is quite wild if done for no reason. You don't really have to go to that area! And you would have to go to that area on your first clear to even notice the difference, so you would have to know that it's there and what it looked like before.
So what is the Whisper portal showing now? Absolutely no clue. The area is still in some sort of a cave, and it's very purple/dark. There's lights that might be Vex lights. The big central light could also be radiolaria? It's super hard to tell. I don't think it's looking into another area in VoG and I've tried comparing it to some other places mainly from Io or Venus, but I couldn't find something that matches from what little we can see.
But the fact that they changed the portal image can't be random. There's no need to do that at all in the first place, unless it's supposed to serve some purpose. Maybe some hint? I wonder if it will change again with reset, or maybe become clearer. I doubt there will be a lot of alterations going forward, if any, but I'll be checking every week for sure.
Also, there's oracles to shoot every week (2 available this week), for the new exotic ship associated with the mission. The original, A Thousand Wings and the new one, Karve of the Worm, comparison:
The only difference is the Vex effects on the new one, and a new flavour text. To get the new one, you have to destroy a total of 7 oracles to get the ship. At least one of these will for sure be somewhere near the portal, because that's where the ship quest originally was, and it involved oracles. I wonder if something might happen with the portal when that triumph becomes finishable and the ship obtainable. Not hoping for something huge, but I feel like changing that portal image means something and we'll eventually find out what.
#definitely seems like a hint for something#my unlikely dream is that the final oracle will let you go wherever that is for the ship and a teaser for Echoes#like how the starcrossed mission had the Ishtar Collective secret#destiny 2

You know, I really hope the exotic class items either have an ornament that's relatively bland/"classic destiny armor" style, or are able to accept any legendary ornament for transmog because like. You warlocks don't care bc bonds are next to invisible but I am a HUNTER and my cloak is 70% of my fashion and while the pale heart style is neat, I don't want to always look like pearlescent leaf flesh yknow.
#warlocks having the most unnoticeable and fashion-irrelevant class item finally works out in our favor#but yeah those things definitely need some kind of ornament that isn't so gaudy#my wildest unrealistic fantasy is that they each have a wide selection of ornaments based on the exotics they're getting perks from#but I can see how that would be an unreasonable amount of work#destiny 2

I was yesterday years old when I realized I've been coloring my Exo wrong all this time — but instead of updating in game, I'm retconning my art

Yes, to both your questions:
The story of Katabasis and his Ghost, Gilgamesh, surviving on the Glykon while it was gone from our reality, features Katabasis telling his Ghost to just wait to rez him until there's a chance to escape, and his Ghost cites frustrations with being essentially abandoned for long periods of time
https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/entry-11-sullen#book-captains-log
Then, in a less serious lore entry, a Ghost realizes his Guardian is, for lack of a better word, entirely nuts in the head, and opts to leave him dead.
https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/whether-windmills-or-cranes#book-ghost-stories
I know next to nothing about Destiny, but... hear out a question from an inquiring mind?
Ghosts bring their Guardians back to life. Would a Ghost be capable of "waiting" to bring their Guardian back?
Like, if there's such a dangerous scenario that if the Guardian were to come back immediately, they'd just die again. And again. Could a Ghost wait like 30 minutes, then bring their dude back? And my angst-driven mind also wonders, could a Ghost choose to NOT resurrect their Guardian?

This is really funny, but I also think the funniest option is that R6 accidentally causes the destiny crossover because they tried to open a portal home and were slightly off. Like they walk in:
"Hey, is this Earth? Third planet in the Solar System?"
"Yeah, of course. Why do you ask?"
"Oh thank god. We were stuck in some kind of alternate dimension full of animal people, and we've been trying to get home for a while now."
"Well, it's great that you're here now. There are Hive invading the Last City, and we need all the help we can get!"
"What?"
"You know, Hive? Those three-eyed bug aliens with the Darkness powers? They're trying to stop us from pursuing the Witness into the Heart of the Traveler!"
"Alright, nevermind. I think I'll actually take being stranded on Terra to whatever's going on here."
"all arknights problems are caused by weird portals" statistic is actually false. roughly 99% of arknights problems are caused by the precursors, the seaborn, the feranmuts, or all of the above at once. rainbow georg siege, who collectively source their problems from the giant isekai portal to real ass earth in the middle of the desert, are an outlier asd should not be counted
