Ace of Spades Fireteam
So, here is my pinned post, with a bit about my guardians! In my head, the three guardians you make in D2 is the young wolf’s 3-person fireteam. I play with my boyfriend, so essentially we have a 6-person fireteam, buuuuut, some of them aren’t fleshed out, so here is the basic info. Also, I should add that in my head, my bf’s titan and my warlock are the young wolves, and it is not just one person.
Bubo (she/her)--awoken warlock. Dawnblade. The YW. Ghost: Minerva.
She was rezzed in the Dreaming City at the time the young wolf was rezzed. She loves her dawnblade, but she uses all the light/darkness subclasses (except for stormcalling). She is the student of Ikora Rey and focuses on history, mainly of the awoken and lightbearers. She hopes to establish a museum in the city one day. She often gets in trouble, such as being the first Shadebinder, learning too much about her previous life, and wanting to keep an Ahamkara bone in her house in the city.
Tripore (he/him)--human titan. Sunbreaker. The YW. Ghost: Edgewise.
Tripore was rezzed in the Cosmodrome, a few years before Bubo. He loves the archives and has become a hidden who focuses on better data management. On the battlefield, he yeets as many nades as possible (and says "where's my hammer?" every five seconds). He loves doing photography and becoming a Dregen in his downtime. Bubo hates how much she is dragged into Gambit by Tripore.
Violet (she/her)--awoken hunter. Nightstalker. Ghost: Rose.
She was on the same fireteam as Cayde and Andal Brask and ended up being on this new light fireteam when she found Bubo in the Dreaming City. A hunter who is probably not the best influence on any new lights, but is quite effective at what she does. She mainly loves sniping, playing with knives, and drinking way too much alcohol.
Cynthia-28 (she/her)--exo titan. Sentinel/ Behemoth. Ghost: Lawrence
Cynthia was rezzed in the early city age. She has an old exo frame that constantly has issues, so she became an exo scientist to learn more about exos and to help others who don’t have the light/can heal themselves. She also tries to take apart our robot dog.
??? (she/her)--awoken warlock. Stormcaller. Ghost: ???
She still needs a name. She was rezzed in the late dark ages and has stayed away from a lot of the fighting, focusing on her studies instead. She ends up on Bubo’s fireteam just cause they needed a bit more firepower fighting Crota, and Bubo just happened to know her.
Shiro-4 (he/him)--exo hunter. Ghost: Suzume
Okay, we haven't had any lore on Shiro since D1, and I want to know what he is up to, so he is the final member of the Ace fireteam. I think he was on the same fireteam as Cayde, Andal, Violet, and Tevis Larsen years ago, but now Violet and Shiro are the last two from that fireteam. Like the unnamed warlock, Shiro is more so just there to help when Ace needs it and he is a reliable hunter.
Saint trying to get Saladin and Sloane in a Titan Bubble Cuddle. Idk if I've explained this, but my boyfriend started a headcannon that the titans cuddle in a Ward of Dawn bubble. That's it. That's the story. It's cannon.
Okay, so, I totally imagine my warlock Bubo trying to figure out how the heck queensfoil is made. Of course, she can't just ask for the recipe, so she ends up reading some notes from different lightbearers who've tried in the past to brew it (like Toland). She tries different brews, none working until she finds one in the hidden archives. She attempts it and accidentally becomes ascendant in her apartment in the city and even worse, she gets thrown into the ascendant plane. Whoops. She's totally lost and spends like a week there. Toland finds her (because he stalks the YW everywhere) and helps her get out. When she gets out Tripore is super upset because he's been looking everywhere for her, but eventually calms down when he knows she's alright. But the hidden got wind of this of course, and it gets back to Rey, and Ikora isn't happy that Bubo didn't really plan this out well (especially brewing it in the middle of a residential district????), buuuuut she let's it slide cause she's been trying to figure out queensfoil too. So yeah, Bubo would def get lost in the Ascendant Plane.
how about an angsty destiny poll? 👀
Saw this post and decided to focus on the two ghosts who have the most amount of headcanon lore--Minerva (my warlock, Bubo’s, ghost) and Edgewise (my bf’s titan, Tripore’s, ghost). Over the years, we have slowly fleshed out what our ghosts would be like, often when the Ghost is involved, we try to identify which one of our ghosts is speaking. So yeah, we just have way too much lore about them lol.
Ghosts who refuse to heal their Guardians when they’re mad (in non-critical situations)
Totally Edgewise. He would get mad at Tripore for making Edgewise rezz him one too many times, so at the end of a battle, when he’s not too hurt, Edgewise just won’t heal him (Of course, it helps Edgewise knows Tripore has his warlock gf nearby to put down a well or rift for Tripore). Edgewise is like Saladin’s ghost, Isirah, who just believes that their guardian needs to just get good and not die so much.
Ghosts who insist they want to try out tons of ridiculous hobbies, or try to find some to do with their Guardian
Minerva is the one who is upset about the possible ballet fan, Rasputin, getting hurt in that one strike. Bubo is very much into drawing and sewing in her down time, especially drawing cause she can take it with her very easily on her ship. Meanwhile, her ghost loves the performing arts. Music. Ballet. Dancing. Plays. Minerva likes to float around doing little dances and volunteers at the Ghost Community Theater.
Ghosts who sneakily transmat things they like back to the ship, much to the surprise of their Guardian
Minerva and Bubo are hoarders of mementos, so yes, I can see this happening
Ghosts who like their own little cubby/space to spend time while their Guardian sleeps (it’s fully decorated)
I DREW A COMIC AND GAVE IT TO MY BOYFRIEND OF BUBO GETTING MINERVA AND EDGEWISE A LITTLE TERRARIUM FOR THE DAWNING. Of course Minerva absolutely adores it! Edgewise doesn’t like it, but secretly loves it and sometimes is caught sleeping in there when he thinks no one is looking but it's in a high-traffic part of the house, so he gets caught a lot. It has a little dreaming city tree and fairy lights and some small pillows and blankets. It's pretty lit. I need to draw just the concept art again and post it on here.
Ghosts that bonk their shells against their Guardian in frustration or playfulness
Definitely Minerva playfully.
Ghosts that hate each other, but their Guardians are best friends or lovers
MINVERA AND EDGEWISE ARE COMPLETE OPPOSITES LOLOL. They have to put up with each other now that their guardians are dating. Even worse was during the Red War, Bubo and Violet’s apartment (they were roommates when Bubo was a wee new light. Violet's apartment had a spare bedroom or two for hunter friends who wanna crash for a few days when they actually come to the city) was destroyed, so after the war Bubo moved in with Tripore. They eventually got a bigger apartment around Witch Queen. And this means Edgewise has to deal with both Bubo and Minerva who are weirdos. Bubo is always trying to learn about weird awoken magic he is pretty sure isn’t legal/safe to use in the city. And even weirder is her ghost Minerva who constantly floats upside down and is too happy considering how serious things are with the world right now. So yeah, they don’t hate each other, but they have very different personalities that clash.
Ghosts who don’t care what their Guardian thinks, because who’s been alive longer? That’s right. It’s Ghost.
This is Edgewise. Definitely.
Ghosts who are *way* too into the fashion show, and their Guardian is begging them to let it go
Minerva absolutely LOVES getting dressed up for literally everything and anything. He especially likes matching Bubo. Armor? Dresses? Casual nerdy warlock clothes? Minerva loves them all and loves getting fifty bazillion shells. Bubo’s wallet cries every single time they find a new shell out in the wild lol. But his favorite and the one he wears most often is his Rival Warlock Shell that bubo painted to match one of her armor sets (even tho she doesn’t wear those robes much anymore, he still loves it)
Ghosts who always use some of their down time in the City to mourn those lost. Some of those that their Guardian never knew, because they lived and died before Ghost found their Guardian.
Hmmm. Does Edgewise have an angsty backstory that explains why he is super serious all the time? Idk. I haven’t really thought of Minerva or Edgewise’s backstories.
More Ghost things:
Ghosts who refuse to heal their Guardians when they’re mad (in non-critical situations)
Ghosts who ship their Guardian and are *vocal* about it
Ghosts who get passive-aggressive about who has a better Guardian (grandmas at a knitting circle style)
Ghosts who insist they want to try out tons of ridiculous hobbies, or try to find some to do with their Guardian
Ghosts who sneakily transmat things they like back to the ship, much to the surprise of their Guardian
Cuddly Ghosts who press up against their Guardian while they sleep
Ghosts who like their own little cubby/space to spend time while their Guardian sleeps (it’s fully decorated)
Ghosts who insist they’re better than their Guardian at interior decorating
Ghosts who like to wander the City alone while their Guardian is on the Tower taking care of things
Ghosts who remind their Guardian to sleep/eat/hydrate/fix their posture
Ghosts that bonk their shells against their Guardian in frustration or playfulness
Ghosts who get sick of it when their Guardian is in love
Ghosts that hate each other, but their Guardians are best friends or lovers
Ghosts that are best friends, but their Guardians hate each other
Ghosts without Guardians silently choosing a Lightless who they get along with, pretending they’re a pair for a while
Ghosts who stick with their Lightless friend until the end, hoping – always hoping – that it might change
Ghosts without Guardians that help look after the refugee children with/without parents, hoping to help in some way
Ghosts that are just. Really bad at reading the room, much to the chagrin of their Guardian.
Ghosts who don’t care what their Guardian thinks, because who’s been alive longer? That’s right. It’s Ghost.
Ghosts who made a bunch of friends (Guardian or Lightless) before they found their Guardian, so everyone forgets the new Guardian is there the first few times.
Ghosts who are WAY too proud of their Guardian, constantly embarrassing the Guardian who just wants to turn in bounties.
Ghosts who begrudgingly rate each new outfit/color as their Guardian plays fashion
Ghosts who are *way* too into the fashion show, and their Guardian is begging them to let it go.
Ghosts trying to sing with their Guardian – who also can’t sing.
Ghosts who adamantly want a pet
Ghosts who insist they can’t have a pet, because it’s already hard trying to keep the Guardian alive (and they get multiple shots at it)
Ghosts that get huffy when they’re upset, but not vocally. You just see their shells twisting and puffing in and out.
Ghosts betting things between each other (Hey, I bet you this shell that my Guardian will get more kills than yours)
Ghosts that tut at their Guardian over every little scratch and bruise out of worry
Ghosts who always use some of their down time in the City to mourn those lost. Some of those that their Guardian never knew, because they lived and died before Ghost found their Guardian.

Current WIP. My boyfriend and I are celebrating five years together next month! I decided to draw our guardians on a date in the Dreaming City. I'm really happy with how it's turning out so far, but I'm remembering why I don't draw titans much. I don't make titan armor chonky enough. It's been a struggle for ages. I definitely made it better this time, buuuut it could use some work. Also, I'm doing my custom armor I designed for my warlock and my bf literally always uses the same armor set. He is a true titan and doesn't like changing something that works.
So, I was going through my sketchbooks to figure out which markers I use for Tripore's armor. And I totally forgot this one idea I had last year where it's summer and the young wolves use stasis to make Stasis Italian Ice. They set up a stand in the tower and Aunor flips out over it, cause Aunor doesn't know what fun is. Also, Edgewise and Minerva get little chef hats, which Edgewise tries his best to shake off. Oh and Saint gives Tripore one of his favorite aprons. Cause Saint totally has a bunch of aprons for cooking.
My boyfriend sent me this a month ago and it feels appropriate for this season
Making a scrapbook for my boyfriend since we've been dating for five years now (this is why I'm not drawing d2 fan art rn. I'm busy drawing lots of art for this)! I had to include a spread to all of our hours in Destiny 2! The finished Bubo and Tripore Dreaming City date drawing, doodles of our ghosts and their favorite shells, our class symbols, the DLCs we've played together and the seasons we actually did the story, and two of his favorite seals that he goes and gilds every season (Dredgen and Deadeye). This page turned out so cute! I only have a few more pages and then I'll be done! I bit off a bit more than I can chew with this project (like I tend to do with crafty/artsy stuff lol), but I know my bf will love it.
Season of the Witch Fireteam Meeting
Bubo (warlock): Hey guys, so this is a super secret mission we are currently on. Yes, it is one the vanguard knows about. Basically...in order to get Immaru to rezz Savathun, we must deal with Xivu Arath first. Eris has a plan. She has made herself the Hive God of Vengeance as a power play against Xivu. Essentially, we need to make Eris more powerful, and we have to do that by tithing to her.
Violet (hunter): Wait! We have to give our titties to Eris?
Cynthia (titan): She's not my type, but that sounds fun!
Violet: No, she is kinda hot!
*Tripore (titan) nodding in approval*
Violet: Someone doesn't like goth hunter girls...
Bubo: I said tithes! Not titties!
Violet: But there could be titties.
Tripore: There should be titty.
Edgewise (Tripore's ghost): This is an important mission to prevent the Final Shape. Can you all not be horny for five minutes??
Bubo and Shiro (the asexuals on the fireteam): Yes.
Tripore, Violet, and Cynthia: Nope.
Bubo: Anyways, we are tithing to Eris by killing things.
Violet: We are titty-ing to Eris, got it.
Bubo: Do you want a dawnblade to the face???
Violet: Maybe I do, new light. Maybe that turns me on as much as titties do.
*Guardian down*
Portable well of radiance.
Bubo: so since we are hatching a whim, can we keep it in our house?
Tripore: ......absolutely not Bubo. No baby Ahamkaras or other dragons in our house.
Bubo: but they're so cute! 🥺🥺🥺
Tripore: no. Their wish magic is dangerous and you already have some Ahamkara bones.
Bubo: but they're not cute! 😭😭😭
