Hot take: the Drifter is one of the kindest characters in the Destiny universe. He just isn't nice about it. And also he murders people.
...and sometimes eats them...
Kind characters are not boring; in fact, due to the vast amount of people who hold that opinion, kind characters are as edgy as it gets. In this essay I will

sometimes we need to reblog things because we want to link to them in conversation and it took 20 minutes of scrolling through old posts to find them because we suck ass at tags
so anyway - here is your reminder that the Drifter is (to the surprise of no one) canonically pan :)
Forgot about this gem I made after the reveal

What a beautiful gift to receive! I shall cherish it and keep it among my word-treasures and show it to others with delight. There are few things more delightful to one such as myself as someone creating more of the thing I love. If anyone is looking for me, I've dragged these words into a corner and am chewing on them lovingly with intense glee.
Here is the whole thing on Ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55585831
If you enjoyed it, please go leave the Hive god of War kudos and a comment.
an untitled triplet
written for @imonthemoonitsmadeofcheese, for a private gift exchange
drifteris, written fast and loose. set roughly during season of arrivals following into beyond light. I hope you like it! idk what I'm doing!
Eris has done grimmer work than this – gathering Darkness, befouling the Seed of Silver Wings, overseeing desperate attempts at communication again and again – but the pyramid ships provide pressure, looming and imminent. At first she finds the Drifter ill-fitting company for such dire circumstances. He jokes and cajoles and trades barbs, quick to duck even the shadow of responsibility.
But he has his moments.
“Say, Commander, while I’ve got you here, I’ve been meaning to ask –” he says, fearlessly sliding through one of Zavala’s brief but stern lectures. “You want me to take a look at those frames back there?”
A reluctant pause. “What frames?”
“There’s these three maintenance types, they drop by and sweep the street for hours. Figured it must be their map data bugging out.” She can hear the smile in his voice, insincere and jovial. “Could get that sorted in two ticks. Hell, I’d even give you a discount, since we’re being heroic together and all.”
Another pause. Eris wonders if Zavala is gritting his teeth. The Vanguard’s surveillance is rarely subtle. “That… will not be necessary. Thank you for notifying me. Tower maintenance will look them over soon.”
“Let me know if you change your mind. I just like being helpful.”
It is a poor thing to laugh at, but all humour has been sparse of late. Eris chuckles, safely muted, and updates a tally of points she hadn’t realized she’d begun keeping.

Mulder and Scully are the narrative grandparents of the Drifter and Eris Morn.
Just swap the heads. It works perfectly.
All that time obsessing over them when I was younger and only to much later find them in my shooty game, still kicking ass and defending the earth from aliens. I will always love them in all their incarnations.

I basically have a female version of Drifter ragging on actual Drifter
Eris & the Drifter being badass together
All the action and fight scenes - so much violence!
Eris has now shot the Drifter
Drifter is about to be put in a position where he'll need to gun down Eris (Angst! So much angst! He wouldn't actually do that, would he? Wouldn't it be delicious if there were circumstances where he actually would?)
If this intrigues you, the WIP is Road Trip
People of writeblr, what's your favourite thing about your current, most active WIP?

people telling you they reread your fic is the biggest compliment you could ever receive. there are thousands of stories out there begging to be found, to be explored, but your story meant so much to someone that they came back to it eagerly, they went over every word again. to love is to return and loving a fic is rereading it. thank you to all readers and rereaders <3333

Yes.
The secret wish is to write a fanfic that someone loves so much they make fan art of it, or to create a drawing that someone creates an entire fic based off of it.

"I trust no one."
"Well, hell if I know. I don't understand people like them." "Lightbearers?" "Friends."
"What would you do if your loved ones returned? "I don't have those. But, if I did… Wouldn't be sittin' here flappin' gums with you."
"Listen, Moondust. Hand to my heart, I am flattered. But Drifter ain't got time for all that! Let's keep this businesslike."
"Don't give in to hope. That gets you killed."
"Smoke. Leaves. Friends. Thoughts. Lives. Dust. Don't even try to hold on."
"Eaton. Who were those people to you?" "Nothing. Just ghosts."
Drifter is the emotional equivalent of Python's Black Knight. He's clearly desperately in need of love and compassion and forgiveness and friendship while he stands there insisting to your face that he doesn't.
love a fictional character who will scowl and tell people “I’m not sick” “I’m not hungry” “I didn’t get injured”
meanwhile he has an extremely high fever, he ate some soup last week, and the blood is soaking through his jacket

love it when it’s a character’s sense of empathy that leads them into committing atrocities. Homicidal bleeding heart gotta be one of my favorite types of guy
