Gotta ramble about my goof Sargas (and a bit of others) for a bit. Kinda. Anyway, basics:
And more below cut
His Ghost, Summ, rezzed him in a cave near a beach. Summ was also accompanied by an Arc Titan named Dee, and Dee's Ghost, Ouri, who Summ had been traveling with since they left everyone else during the beginning of the Faction Wars.
Sargas was mentored with his Arc by Dee while they all continued their travels without really interacting with other Guardians/not making an effort to go back to the City since they were all content with just. Wandering.
Until Dee and Ouri "die" from a Fallen attack.
This forces Sargas to start on his way to the City and settle down (between after the Great Hunt and before Xûr's arrival in the Tower). And by "settle down" I mean he preoccupies himself for ages and ages with errands just to ignore his grief and also that there's like. A curse on him.
Pre-risen Sargas fell into a cult who placed a ritual on him, but it screwed up a bit and just insta-killed Sargas, while leaving him with a giant marking/defect on his stomach that occasionally flares up and causes him immense dread/pain.
Buuuut eventually he meets my YW (who i need to update GREATLY) who befriends Sargas. So Sargas ends up on their fireteam since "it'll do him some good to get out once in a while". And it does! He feels more "human" again from the genuine friendship, even if it's not as close as he was with Dee and Ouri.
Keep in mind that Sar's resets are veeeeery few and far between. He hates how they feel due to his frame, specifically around the defect, bringing him a lot of pain during the process. The "50" bit of his name was a flat-out lie that he told Summ when he was first rezzed and never bothered to start counting his resets when he began to somewhat have them.
So he and the YW hang out for a while until Season of Plunder, which Sargas sits out on cause being close to Nezarec's relics makes him nauseous and full of even more dread.
Spends time back in the City, generally collecting his own thoughts on everything. There are a lot of filler bits in Sar's story for him to rest, so this would be one of 'em jhgjdghd
Then the YW invites him out on a few minor missions before they head out to do Root of Nightmares. And even though Sargas said he'd be fine, he isn't. Shit happens, and without really saying anything he ends up in a coma for months afterwards. Once I get all the details in order, I'll explain more, but as of rn that is all.
He wakes up after multiple resets were performed on him, but he doesn't talk much for a while. He'll chat with the YW, as well as a new Warlock friend named Nell (who I named before EoF, mind you) that helps him with bow practice. But no speaking to anyone else.
The timeline carries on per usual until Revenant where Sargas is overwhelmed once more from the defect suddenly acting up, to the extent of leaving the City entirely. His memories are a little hazy, but with Summ's help, he finds his way back to the beach he was rezzed at.
He enters the cavern and finds an abandoned camp. Doesn't question it from exhaustion, and just rests for the night. Then in the morning, he wakes up and JUMPSCARE, IT'S DEE. Once again, not saying too much, but she's alive. Barely though. Skipping over stuff, but they get back, and Sargas quickly takes her into the Traveler to help her recover, and they stake camp in the Traveler up till EoF.
They go back to the Tower and get back into the swing of things with Dee, her wanting to take Sar's place as a Guardian, with Nell and Dee becoming friends easily via mutual "yeah-I-helped-with-Sar-developing-his-skills" and "we both like testing our paracausal abilities". So they're hanging out during the beginning of EoF up till the end of the story we have so far.
That's when the YW comes back, is introduced to Dee and Nell, and talks to them about Kepler. Which gets Nell really excited and wanting to go check the place out. Dee agrees to follow along only if Sargas is also wanting to go. Which, he isn't. Originally. But third time's the charm n all that. So he agrees, but only to investigate the Aionian tech and make sure Nell doesn't blow anything up.
Just a short trip, yeah? Wrong. Sargas gets bored out of his mind staying in the Caldera. Bc seeing Dee and Nell be allowed to go out there and explore farther while he's stuck in one place is making him itch for something, soooo...
The obvious solution to this is apparently sneaking off to the Academy while eyes are off of him, of course. And then breaking into some Archives in the very back by messing around with their lock tech. Aaaand consequently getting his legs kicked out from beneath him and landing on his ass before getting dragged back to Lodi by the Emeritus.
They bicker slightly (with poor Lodi translating their back and forth) and eventually the decision is that Sar ends up staying longer on Kepler to help strengthen security, and do other miscellaneous tasks for good ol' Em as repayment. Sar gets used to it.
Kepler offers an odd sense of serenity for him and the defect hasn't flared up since spending time around the Emeritus, which is pretty frequent since Sar gets a lot of free time and Em likes to study his Arc.
I plan for their relationship to be the Emeritus giving Sar a necklace/some accessory that, to Aionians, is the same as a relationship proposition.
So Everyone Knows except Sargas, who just thinks Em's actions are general politeness until he has a Realization one day, then starts trying even quicker to learn the Aionian language by himself to surprise the Emeritus/confess his feelings with.
They're just gonna be sillies for me to put together for mostly fluff purposes. Old and retired sillies. For my dorky situations. You can ask other questions about anyone mentioned here if you want, since it'd probably help me clarify specifics if I get asked about them. But yeah ty for reading if you did read all this hhshdsh
