I've become attached... | |

...to Noble Team. I think part of it might just come with time. I really like them. Sometimes they piss me off, yes, but overall I really have been trying to read into their dynamic. I mean, lots of great and/or famous teams or groups in fiction have had their moments of not seeming at the top of their game cohesively, at least as far as the writing goes... but some blanks you just have to fill in. I like filling in those blanks. I love the Noble I've helped forge. I love the way Jorge talks about Reach. I love the way Emile talks to Jorge. I love the way that Carter stuck it to Halsey (even though I love Halsey). I love my Six. I think I'm more attached to him than I ever was to the Chief. Funny enough, I always thought I was just helping narrarate how MC was going to eventually save the day, even though we didn't know the end. But even knowing how Reach would fall, I felt so much more a part of the story as Six. There's a moment I really love with Kat... One that I thought the voice actor delivered awesomely. It's silly, really, and seemingly insignificant. It's when she gives Emile's knife back and says "Thank you for sharing." I don't know why, but it's perfect. It's almost like we get a glimpse of her underneath everything. Like something she would have said to her daughter if she had never become a Spartan. Loved it. In my head, the universe is still pure. The games has it's flaws certainly... but it's not the fault of Reach. Hell, REAL human history is full of retcons... ;-) Grim
