Ok, I wouldn't normally share things like this, but my brain hurts trying to keep all this excitement bottled up for so long, so here goes.
Me and my Brother constantly play this game, maybe not together alot, but it's our thing. We don't really EVER get along, but Destiny is the one thing we can talk about, and bond over.
For 2 weeks, I've been working with my mother to get my brother a party he deserves. It was [i]Destined[/i] to be. I want to see if anyone likes what me and my mom cooked up...
The presents.
Three Destiny Mega Blok things.
The cake.
A chocolate cake with white icing, brown trim, and a message in the middle. "Happy Birthday Alex" With another below it. "It's a Destiny thing"
The reason for that, is my mother doesn't follow too closely as to anything we do in Destiny. So anytime my brother is playing and she wants to know whats happening, my bro will try to explain it as best he can, but ultimately fail.
"But who are the glowing ones you're killing?" "They're Taken, (explination)." "Oh, so what does that mean?" "*sigh* It's a Destiny thing..."
What's funny, is that for christmas, my brother got a shirt that reads...
"It's a Destiny thing, you would'nt understand." And now his cake will say it too, lol.
The cookies.
Now, this is unusual for us, but we thought it would be cool. My mother reached out to someone to bake special cookies for Alex, and her first thought, was to make it Destiny. (aww) So I helped her with picking images that would help this person make Destiny themed cookies. The results?... Even Bungie would be proud.

6 unique designes.
The 1st is square shaped with black icing, and the word "Destiny" at the top with the tricorn in the middle.
The 2nd is square shaped with white icing, and the iconic Destiny Ghost in the center.
The 3rd is Circle shaped with dark green icing, and the Iron Banner logo.
The 4th is rectanguler with dark green icing, and a quote, "How's your sister?" In gold.
The 5th is rectanguler with dark green icing, and the "It's a Destiny thing" in gold on it.
The final 6th design is the Warlock logo on the left, and "Alex" on the right, both in gold. (And dark green icing, again)
Does any body like this party we're throwing? Have anything you want to say to my brother? (His birthday is today) If you take away anything from this post, it should be that me and Alex are Destiny nerds. :p
Ok, typing this post didn't help with my head, and now my hand hurts. (Yay) Happy Birthday Alex, hopefully you like everything. :)
edit. Holy smokes, Trending? Im glad my brothers bday is getting attention. (If anyone at Bungie wants to wish him a happy birthday, that would make his year.) :D
Edit 2. Alex has read all the comments as of this edit, he thanks you all! (He hasn't opened his presents yet, but they won't be NEARLY as cool as the cookies.) Photos of the cookies coming soon, hopefully.
Edit 3. The pictures of the cookies are in place, hope you all like them. :)

I respect this

Maximum effort! Also the spider tank and harvester sets look amazing. I’ve got an Atheon and hope for more raid bosses
-
I do believe more effort was put into those cookies than any of the gear actually in the game.
-
Send me a cake through the post tyvm
-
Well this is a better post than that jackass last week who asked for a free Luna because “his brother” had cancer. I approve!

[quote]My mother reached out to someone to bake [b]special cookies[/b] for Alex[/quote] I thought THAT was about to go a different direction. ;) No idea how old y'all are. Treasure the fun times like this. You might feel that you and he do not get along much, but you will find with time that these moments could be rare. Make as many as you can. :) [spoiler]Your mother did a very nice job on getting those cookies![/spoiler]

Sounds awesome! I've got one of the Mega Blox destiny sets and while it's not got the same quality as Lego it's still a good and fun set to build. Just make sure to have some super glue handy as some parts just don't wanna attach and stay together. Destiny mega blox https://imgur.com/a/Jw7YNdO

And to finish it off, fire three golden gun shots in the air as a tribute. [spoiler]In all seriousness, good job on the party! I think it’s gonna make his day! [/spoiler]
