"Who, or what, would wear a halo?"

Well, let's see.....
RELIGION:

Angels. (Duh)
Saints. (?)
Messiahs. (!)

MEDICAL:

Anyone suffering severe neck/upper back trauma. (Not likely)

OPTICAL ILLUSIONS:

Stand with your back to the sun, and look into the depths of a lake or pond. (Strange, but still not likely)
Do the same on dew covered grass. (See above)

(How about if we looked at this another way...)

"Who, or what, would 'wear a Halo'?" (Cue 'Twilight Zone' music)

Suppose this refers to HALO itself. Now, you have this enormous construct in space. Who or what would WEAR it? Well, it could be physically worn, like the ring it resembles, but the being capable of that would have to be measured using parsecs. (Scratch that) So, if one can't 'wear a Halo' like jewelry, what if one can 'wear a Halo' like a suit or skin? This would mean AI, or those organic beings who are able to directly interface their minds to a larger computational network (cyborgs). In First Strike, it was mentioned that the 'Guardian of the Luminous Key' was aboard the 'Ascendant Justice', in the neighborhood of Halo. Could this have been the AI that Cortana encountered? (Land the 'AJ' on Halo, take the AI to the control room, upload...) Or was there a Covenant cyborg on board? One 'designed' (bad term, sorry) specifically for direct computer interfacing. (Let's call them 'alphas', for 'alpha-numeric'.) Now, land and get the alpha, the 'Guardian of the Luminous Key(board)' to the control room, let them 'wear Halo'....
Hrmmm. Cyborg would probably be better than AI, given Sparky's reaction to Cortana's presence in the core. (Hey, Cortana got to 'wear a Halo' for "12 hours"...better leave this for later.)
Going to stop here. Long day at work, and I've been hitting the bottle so much, it's starting to hit back.
(This has probably been gone over already, sorry about that.)
