Marathon's secretly been telling you to "kill for mommy," community lead salutes the first thirsty players to discover the hidden message

Marathon's Vandal sitting down with legs crossed.

Will you kill for mommy? I beg that you do not tell me the answer to that question, but it seems Bungie has been posing it to Marathon players for some time now. Dataminers have recently taken a close look at some of the weapon skins included in the Marathon reward pass to discover a bit of subliminal messaging, and the game's community lead is having a great deal of fun with the reactions.

The big theme in the first Marathon reward pass is Achromatic Rush, a series of black-and-white cosmetics culminating in a skin for Vandal. Players have taken to calling this skin "Goth Vandal," and it appears that Bungie was out ahead of the memes. The Achromatic Rush weapon skin for the Misriah includes a message on the shell casing that reads "kill for mommy."
