    Summary

    He didn’t cry. He’d already done that. Not out loud. Not where anyone could hear. He’d stood in the rubble of his aunt’s house—their house—and tried to find something that smelled like her. A scarf. A mug. Something stupid. He’d come up with a half-burnt towel and a piece of what might have been a butter knife. The man who’d pulled him out didn’t say sorry. Just shoved the bag into his chest and said he was lucky the aliens hadn’t hit harder.

    My 35 year old ass is writing the fanfic I wanted to write when I played Halo:Reach in 2010. This is a labor of love I've had in my heart for 15 years. It means more to me than you'll ever understand, and is purely for my enjoyment and the enjoyment of any other freaks out there that had some sort of weird-ass awakening over fictional armored calves almost two decades ago. I hope you enjoy it.

    Summary

    You woke up buried in the ground. Not a good start. Though that just meant everything was uphill from there! Uphill, as in, the opposite of downhill and not uphill, as in, a road full of twists and turns and challenges.
    Well, there's a bit of that, too. Getting rescued by two Amazons, one a go get 'em SPARTAN and another a kind-hearted gentle giant of a Sangheili, isn't without challenges, and you could already feel your hips begging to be saved the moment they start becoming amorous around you. Well, you can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs, as they say.
