Description Originally from a Halo AU 'fic I'm trying to write. An AI we know by another name.

"It's like this. I was born human. Made a Spartan. Recreated by the Covenant.
And raised by survivors of the Forerunner.

I've been around best part of a thousand years. Waiting for my squad to arrive. And a whole lot more on top of that.

I can tell ya one thing.
...You learn a lot when you're waiting for that long."

Edit 30 Sept. 08: Yeeeeeikes. I had never expected that to happen in canon.

Wow... that's kinda creepy how you called it in advance... (Twilight Zone music plays) Still the best plot twist ever, though. ^_^
Uh, anyway nice work, I really like it.

Wow.

You nailed it. Two years in advance, without knowing it. Kudos.

Great artwork, by the way...

Must be a psychic. Or a prophet. I was just playing around with ideas for an AU story, back then; I was as amazed as the next person what happened!
Thanks!

Y'know, I usually hate spoilers of any kind, but I had to go look after that... man.

Oops. Sorry, I keep assuming people have seen it already before I comment.

Apologies.

Church straight from Red Vs Blue, with a few edits for AU fanfic stuff. The guy's a ghost in RvB canon - so the closest thing in the Halo universe? An AI... and it all kinda goes from there.
I need to get writing again.

I thought Red vs. Blue was that weird Halo webmovies? I could be crazy, I am.

That's the bunny. I'm an addict.
As I said, it's a very alternate-universe-crazy version of that world this picture comes from, so don't expect anything to match u. Church himself is the Spartan in light blue. Except when he's a ghost, when he's white.

I'm not going to take the point any farther.
I don't understand and I will not press upon you to explain it to a dunce like me.

PhoenixTrooper In reply to AxelofReaht [2006-08-07 23:18:51 +0000 UTC]

Heh, okay, then. All I'd say is 'go watch RVB' - if not to get the references but just because it's funny as hell.

Yeah, I've seen a few and they are funny.

Nailed it in one. AI!Church. Did you get it from the description or the pic itself?

More from the picture, actually. The blue skin, the slightly depressed look, the goatee....
