It took me a bit, Cody, but I think I finally finished your Destiny Crossword. Some of these were easy and obvious, while others were very obscure. It really forced me to dig deep into the grimoire. Here is my handwritten copy and here are my answers in list form:

I was wondering when someone would finish.

I will check your answers tonight.

49 Raspberry

This is wrong, even though it fits. If you can justify this answer or find the right one then I can give it to you. (It's the only one you missed)

I have now spent the better part of the day, and a big chunk of last night trying to find the correct answer. Not counting the number of hours I put into this over the past few months. And I've got nothing. I rewatched all the cutscenes, and rechecked more grimoire cards than I care to count. If its there, then I'm apparently oblivious to it. So here is my best attempt to justify my original answer:

49. Strangers Fruit
- A nine letter word ending in Y

I can think of exactly three actual fruits whose name could fit there: Raspberry, Cranberry, Blueberry. Of these, the Raspberry, at least in my mind, has the strongest ties to Destiny with the Hunter Chest "Lucky Raspberry". This is the, admittedly shaky, logic which lead to my original guess.

Even though the logic wasn't firm, I was mildly comforted by the first part of the quote from the grimoire card for the Lucky Raspberry: "No one has ever died wearing me." In retrospect, I should have payed more attention to the second part of the quote.

I tried to look for other non fruit things the clue could be referring to, but I kept coming up short. I suspect that the actual answer is not an actual fruit, but as I couldn't come up with it, I decided to give the only answer left to me a try.

So I will leave it to you to decide: Raspberryiscannon.net or Raspberryisnotcannon.net.

Perhaps it's more than one word?

This is one outside of the cutscenes and grimoire. Think community lore. It's not raspberry, so it must be one of the other two…

Goddamnit, I hate admitting that you're clever, but that's clever. :P

It all makes sense now.

Blueberry: Blueberries are the players on your team that are not in your Fireteam. They are the little blue markers on your Radar. Hence the term blueberry.

I dont think I ever would have gotten that on my own. I have never heard anyone I play with use that term. We typically just call them "Randos". But I will definitely start using that now.

I recognized it as a term for certain players in Destiny (though I thought it meant newer players who were still wearing blue gear instead of purple), but I couldn't figure out why that would have anything to do with The Exo Stranger. I didn't think about it meaning a less specific stranger.

That was my understanding too. I thought it was more akin to Kinderguardian than Rando.

I thought it was a double-meaning thing, given that the Stranger's Rifle is a blue weapon too.

EDIT: I mean, AFTER knowing what the answer was, of course. :)
