Drawings from my Destiny 2 video, first draft.

50+ hours of editing in a week, countless hours of gameplay and studying the lore, 100+ shots... here it is.

I intend to remake it someday using footage sourced exclusively from myself, but I had to get something done for video production class, lol. Thus, it is unlisted on my channel.

PK2025: 11. Kiss on the Nose

Pridekisses - Prompt List 2025

Destiny - Enoch Bast/Marcus Ren - rated: G

------

The problem with being suddenly put in the spotlight is all the attention one gets. Enoch isn’t quite used to it; there’s some narrative being spun by the media, making him out to be a scrappy underdog with only a hundred Glimmer to his name, pooling all his funds to be able to compete in his first SRL tournament, and that if he hadn’t placed on the podium he would’ve been shipped off to some place beyond Saturn to work off his supposed debt. 

It’s only half true. Enoch doesn’t consider himself an underdog. He’s been making his name known in the more local tournaments. It’s not like he came out of nowhere. Also, he had five thousand Glimmer in his Vaut, thank you very much. Taking on a couple of extra Strikes for the Vanguard was more than enough to cover rent for at least three months.

So, to get to the point, Enoch is stumbling out of the ring of reporters and casters after his fifty-sixth interview for a quick break, a little annoyed, which does kind of feel ungrateful, but right now all he wants is to hop on his sparrow and race back onto the nearest track. Maybe not win so flashily next time. 

Marcus steps out from behind the curtain, a grin flashing across his face when he sees how tired Enoch looks. “Darkness consumed you yet?”

It’s not completely private. Enoch can still hear the crowd’s murmurs, their prying questions and whirling cameras. He glances down at his clipped mic, double-checking to see that it’s off. He grabs the glass of water that Marcus hands over.

“Almost,” Enoch says, returning the grin as best as he can, half strength. He takes a sip, notes the fresh iciness, and downs the entire thing. For a runner up, Marcus does have some grace about it. “I don’t know how you do it. Did you know they’re saying I’m poor? That I came from the slums? What’s that even mean? No Guardian has ever came from the slums. We get free housing for at least five years after first resurrection.”  

Marcus laughs. “Ah, you’ll get used to it.”

“Wish they would focus on something other than some half-baked story about me,” Enoch mutters, setting the glass aside. “Like, say, my actual sparrow build.”

There’s a smirk on Marcus’ face, one that makes Enoch want to stare and beat the guy in a race all over again. The fact that Marcus doesn’t offer up any further advice causes Enoch to reconsider Marcus’ ability to lose with grace.

“Not gonna give me any tips?” he eventually asks. “C’mon. They’re eating me alive out there.”

Marcus’ eyes go up, thinking, and when he glances back at Enoch, the smirk’s still there but somehow more sharp. “Well, honestly, I only got one idea.”

“Which is?” Enoch prompts, sensing that Marcus is playing coy, and one thing he knows for sure about Marcus Ren—that Hunter hasn’t gotten an ounce of bashfulness in him. Especially not with that dangerous grin.

Marcus takes a step closer, grabbing Enoch by the neck of his armor, and pulls him down for an innocent (thoroughly fucking conniving, camera-cutesy, kid-friendly) kiss on the nose.

With a wink, Marcus whispers, “Start a better rumor.”

From behind him, Enoch hears the crowd go insane.

We don’t talk enough about Marcus Ren and Enoch.

Where are they? What happened when they found out about Amanda? I need to know that our favorite jock boyfriends are ok.

AND DIDI

[destiny-aesthetics]

I need an ENTIRE SERIES about these three, Ariadne (Ari) Enoch and Marcus, and their equally amazing Ghosts.

Every time there's new lore entries about them it's always gold.

Dragon's Breath is the newest entry.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Dragon's Breath

Burn the world. Burn it all.

"You buying?" asks the bored clerk.

Ariadne isn't listening. She scowls at the display case. "Look at this thing, Enoch. How is it a dragon? It's barely a shark. Crux should have called it Shark's Breath."

"Shark's Breath doesn't sound dangerous. Unless you're underwater, I guess," Enoch says. At his side, Marcus studies the case.

"Exactly! While my dragon has been legally recognized as cool." Ariadne points to the gleaming crimson dragon painted along the side of her Sparrow. "No contest."

"Could be a contest," Marcus says. He looks to the clerk. "Do you do samples?"

Ariadne's eyes light up.

Twenty minutes later at the City's outskirts with waivers signed, Enoch hoists the rocket launcher onto his shoulder. Its shark's face grins at Ariadne.

"You can do it," says Didi. She and Ghost hover above the group, ready to record.

"Ari, you get five seconds head start so you'd better gun it," Marcus says. "And… Go!"

Ariadne's Sparrow screeches away as Enoch counts, fires, and lowers the rocket launcher.

"You really think this is a race Gris can win?" Enoch asks. The rocket arcs towards her, bright in the sky.

Marcus leans in and claps his shoulder.

"Not a chan—"

A ball of flame rises from the landscape as the rocket impacts the Sparrow.

"Now that's cinema," Didi says, satisfied.

I can't get enough of them 💗

Destiny Lore Blorbo Elections: Andal Brask vs Marcus Ren

Andal Brask

Marcus Ren

Voting ended onMar 15, 2023

Andal Brask was the former Hunter Vanguard, before Cayde-6. He was revived by one of the Ghosts following Micah-10, and immediately afterwards journeyed to the Last City across the Pacific Ocean. During the early City Age, Andal was among those who assisted in the Faction Accords. He served as a mentor to Anastasia Bray in the ways of being a Hunter; he also knew Eris Morn before she descended into the Hellmouth. He's been friends with Cayde-6 and Shiro-4. He was killed by Taniks. Long story to tell.

Marcus Ren is a Hunter who became a legend in the Cosmodrome due to his skill in the Sparrow Racing League. He's also creator of the Fr0st-EE5 and St0mp-EE5. Marcus was also part of several fireteams of Guardians deployed to the Cosmodrome in the aftermath of the SIVA Crisis. Also I believe that "Don't notch your cloak for every bounty. You'll run out of cloak." was said to Shaw, no reason, just funny.
