Summary
Eventually, Crow sighs and turns towards him, a conflicted expression on his face.
“Is… is there a reason you didn’t kill me?” His eyes squint slightly, like he’s in pain. Cayde can see the guilt behind them.
Unsure how to answer, Cayde brings his legs back down, rubbing a hand down his face. “Well, like I said, I thought about it. A lot.” He frowns, spinning Ace on his fingers. “But every time that crossed my mind, I’d see Glint and I’d remember who you really are. Uldren took my life, but you didn’t. I can’t make you pay for his mistakes.”
- After being attacked on the journey home following the defeat of the Witness, Cayde and Crow find themselves stranded on Europa.

Summary
In the aftermath of Forsaken, you and Cayde tackle everything Guardian life can throw at you— Fallen uprisings, the Young Wolf’s general mayhem, and being in a healthy relationship. Then, the Nine get involved, and a certain rogue Lightbearer decides to meddle in things he really shouldn’t.
Or: Crow tries his best, Cayde takes things a little too far, and Drifter fucks (shit up).

Summary
He couldn't deny, when Cayde gave his Light for the Young Wolf, how grief left him aching and feeling more alone than ever. He couldn't deny that becoming Hunter Vanguard was no longer about hiding his lack of feeling for the loss of Amanda. Now, it was all about hiding how the loss of Cayde ate at his conscience.

Summary
He focused in on the Guardian’s face, saw the hope in their eyes, the devastation in the wrinkle of their brow, and knew it was worth it. It had to be worth it. This wasn’t his second chance at life. More like his third, fourth chance. What was he thinking, wishing for more? That wasn’t in the cards for him any longer. His friend right in front of him needed this. That had to be enough.
As he put on a brave face, gave his last goodbye, and felt himself drift into the Light, it was strange that it didn’t feel like enough, like peace and rest. All he felt instead was regret.

Summary
Ari, a daring young Hunter, has always admired Cayde-6, the Vanguard whose sharp wit hides a heroic heart. But revealing her feelings is another battle entirely-one she's never had the courage to fight. Teased by her fireteam yet bolstered by their support, Ari dreams of a future where she can finally confess her love.
Then, tragedy strikes. Cayde is lost at the hands of Uldren Sov, and the spark of hope in Ari's life is extinguished. As she struggles to move forward, Uldren is resurrected as Crow, a Guardian free from his past sins. Despite herself, Ari begins to see Crow in a new light, his quiet strength a balm to her wounded heart.
But the universe isn't done with surprises. When Cayde is brought back during the battle against The Witness in the Pale Heart, Ari's world is thrown into turmoil. Her long-buried love for Cayde resurfaces, yet Crow has developed feelings for her, creating a tangled web of loyalty, love, and unspoken truths.
As the Final Shape looms on the horizon, Ari must navigate the chaos of war while deciding where her heart truly lies. Will she choose the rogue she's always loved, the reborn soul who understands her pain, or forge a path entirely her own?

Summary
Alternate universe where Amanda never died and got to see Cayde when he came back. Hugs and tears and goofiness ensue.
This fandom is way too small so it’s up to me to fix that
Just indulgent platonic fluff because we needed more of these goofballs -

They were supposed to be– No. Something’s wrong.
They’re supposed to be the last hope. The Light’s last argument against the Darkness.
This isn’t supposed to be happening.

Summary
The Young Wolf and the Hunter Vanguard had been very good friends, before the Prison. Cayde-6 had been left in a coma after the fight and losing his Ghost, and the last the Guardian had seen of him was the Queen’s Wrath hauling his unconscious form away from them, cursing them for trying to kill him.
They had seen him die, saw his eyes lose their glow. They had gathered up Sundance’s shell after Petra was gone and had swept up the leftover Scorn, and her shell pieces were about the only well taken-care-of thing on their ship…
It wasn't until Crow mentioned Cayde complaining about being stuck in the Tower “for his own safety” that the Guardian realized he had survived. Crow, however, neglected to ever mention the ‘reunion’ he had since been planning for them.

Summary
Warning A Replacement - In which an Exiled Hero is tracked down by their shiny new replacement.
Or, Crow tracks down The Young Wolf under Mara's request with the intent to focus their presumably anger-driven hunts towards more pressing threats to the City, post-reclaiming his memory from Savathun during Lost. This is the first time Crow gets close enough to the Guardian to hold a conversation, most other encounters being seeing one another from distances during Hunt, and marks the start of a series of Crow hunting down the Young Wolf with more and more accuracy to brute force his way inside their artificial walls.
Chapter two will be just little bits and pieces of some of the meetings after, mostly.
