I know what I'm doing! Mostly... I mean that's why we go on missions to these places, to learn about them. We're not trying to destroy anything. Aside from that one time in '52, but that was a last-resort scenario.

It is simply their programming. And, you shouldn't be simply wondering about places where you are unauthorised. It can be quite dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.

// Probably his name This OC started as "let's transplant Gordon Freeman into the Halo universe" and while his finalized lore is not necessarily that, his name (and faceclaim) is a glaring reminder and sometimes I'm kind of embarrassed about that lmao

Alternate question for OCs If you could go back, would you stop yourself from adding a specific piece of lore to your muse?

You're acting like not liking them on the grounds of "they try to kill me every time I see them" is unreasonable.

Then the units are simply enforcing protocol.

Well I don't go there unless my orders tell me to. No matter how much I beg my superiors to give me a little leeway...

𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲-𝐎𝐟-𝐓𝐡𝐞-𝐄𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲-𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭@runawayrelic.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Well, are you meant to be there?

So don't walk through the front door of a Forerunner facility?

𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲-𝐎𝐟-𝐓𝐡𝐞-𝐄𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲-𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭@runawayrelic.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Oh, well, maybe you should stop doing whatever it is that makes them attack you.

They keep shooting at me, that's what's wrong with them.

𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲-𝐎𝐟-𝐓𝐡𝐞-𝐄𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲-𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭@runawayrelic.bsky.social · 3mo ago

They're just very versatile! There's nothing wrong with them.

Gordon is fascinated with Forerunner technology. Except for these things. These things suck and he hates them.

His dream is to visit a Halo Ring. He feels like those structures are just... magnificent...

He's feeling real homesick right about now. Being away from his family has always been rough, but these past few months have been EXTRA tough.

Every now and then he likes to pop into one of the (non-biohazardous) science labs just to see what they're up to. Gives him a chance to learn something new, if what they're doing isn't classified above his clearance level.

Hey, he gets it. He wanted to get his PhD before joining the Navy, and once you're on that path coffee just kind of becomes part of your bloodstream. "Yeah, I tend to get my own brew delivered in supply runs," he says, swirling his coffee around. "Not a big fan of that standard-issue stuff in the+

As much as she would probably suggest against drinking that much coffee, even if the augments allowed for it, she barely has room to talk. "What's that you got there? It smells a bit different than mine."

He's on his sixth. His tolerance is far too high, and it's not just the augments.

ᴅʀ. ᴠᴀʟᴇʀɪᴇ ʜᴇɴᴅʀɪx@dutifulmedicine.bsky.social · 5mo ago

She's on her third . . . No, fourth cup of coffee.

Today seems like a "Flood sim" kind of day. He's never encountered the parasite before, but you can never be too sure, especially with his line of work.

// Hopefully y'all are ready for that to be the only Spartan Saturday for Gordon like... ever lmfao Not a lot of good material for his faceclaim--

Enjoying time in recreational sims is a great form of self care for him. Gives him an opportunity to revisit some places on Earth he hasn't been to in a while. Hopefully he gets to go back home soon. #SpartanSaturday

He's dead. Unless the Infinity employs Jesus there is no medic that can save him now.

Medic.

@forunnertourguide.bsky.social "MASK ON!"

That wasn't what I was implying?

Noah G-077@bornforit.bsky.social · 6mo ago

It’s the little implication that I’m not professional enough to clean-up my own messes that doesn’t sit right with me.

I only know about this situation through you, you can't not give me all the information and then be surprised when I ask follow-up questions. Just because the tube wasn't actively overflowing doesn't mean it was fixed. Could've been shut off and awaiting repairs for all I knew.

Noah G-077@bornforit.bsky.social · 6mo ago

Yes there is, gramps.

No such thing as a stupid question, kid.

Noah G-077@bornforit.bsky.social · 6mo ago

A stupid question.

I'm just asking a question.

Noah G-077@bornforit.bsky.social · 6mo ago

No, no. Thought I’d let the entire workshop get flooded y’know?

I was going to be a physicist before I joined the Navy. Being literal is part of my deal. Is it at least fixed now?

Noah G-077@bornforit.bsky.social · 6mo ago

I was being dramatic. It’s called flare. Makes a comment interesting. Try it. Anyway, I think one of the condenser tubes got clogged up.

What "unethical science shit" did you do, exactly?

Noah G-077@bornforit.bsky.social · 6mo ago

Update: Spent all night doing unethical science shit to some alcohol and it blew up in my face. No, it literally blew up. And now I can’t get the smell of bourbon OUT OF MY SUIT! ARGGGGH.
