Happy birthday to Spartan Samuel-034!

Today is his -488th birthday!

Sam was born on Harvest and identified by Dr. Catherine Halsey as an ideal candidate for the SPARTAN-II program. Like the other candidates, he was kidnapped and brought to Reach for training and augmentation. Early in his training, he was paired up with John-117 and Kelly-087. They failed their first training exercise due to John running ahead of them and leaving them behind. They learned a lesson in teamwork and Sam asked to be friends, becoming the formative iteration of Blue Team. After augmentation, Sam emerged as the tallest and strongest of the SPARTAN-IIs.

On Eridanus Secundus, Blue Team grew, this time with the addition of Fred-104 and Linda-058. It was their first mission together and a success, but things would quickly change.

After the Covenant attack on Harvest--Sam's homeworld--the UNSC changed the priority of the SPARTAN program from Insurrectionists to the alien threat. The Spartans were debriefed and sent to retrieve their MJOLNIR armor on the Commonwealth immediately. However, the frigate was attacked by the Covenant, and Blue Team responded after donning their armor. Their plan was to plant Anvil missiles in the ship's engine room and detonate them, destroying the ship and its passengers.

There, they encountered their first Covenant combatants ever-- Kig-Yar soliders. A Kig-Yar fired a plasma bolt into Sam's armor as he attempted to protect John, breaching his vacuum suit. Realizing that Sam would not be able to retreat into space with the rupture in his suit, John ordered him to stay and defend the engine room. He remained, killing many Kig-Yar single-handedly before the ship exploded.

Sam's death devastated his team and the rest of the SPARTAN-IIs, marking the first death since augmentations. For Kelly, his death was a sobering reminder that the Spartans, while the best the UNSC had to offer, were not invincible. For John, it served as proof that the Covenant could be killed, although he blames himself for Sam's demise.

Years later, Blue Team still carries Sam's memory with them, and John would go on to use his name and number as the passwords to the Weapon's deletion routine, demonstrating that over three decades later, John's first friend is still fresh on his mind.

Hii I was wondering if you can do the prompt "Family" for Halo?? :)

The early morning air is still and crisp, laced with the promise of coming frost. Dawn is just breaking over the horizon; it washes the buildings in soft purple light, not quite strong enough to chase the stars out of the sky.

Five children, no older than nine or ten, lie on their backs on the roof of the barracks, shoulder to shoulder.

The lanky, brown-haired girl points up at a glittering constellation. "Oh, I know that one." Her identification is met with murmurs of agreement before they all lapse back into comfortable silence.

It's broken again a few minutes later by one of the boys - dark-haired, with thoughtful eyes. "...do you ever remember things about where you came from? Like...about your parents?"

The silence settles again and stretches to the verge of awkwardness before one of the other boys nods. "I remember my mom." He shrugs. "She was nice."

"Do you ever miss her?"

Another shrug. More silence. "It's okay if you do. You know, miss yours."

"Yeah, I think that's normal," the girl chimes in.

"But you remember what Doctor Halsey said?" The third boy - tall, blond, green-eyed - looks down the line at the rest of them. "We're family now."

The agreement is stronger this time, a chorus of affirmation that drifts toward the fading stars.

MIC Squaddies Profile: Samuel Wickie

Nickname(s): Sam, Wicks

Race/Ethnicity/Nationality: Human, Surdan

Gender/Age: Male, 22 (on first meeting)

Place of Birth: Forlis, a small town on the shores of Tüdosten Lake, northwest of Petrøvya

Height: 6’5”

Body Type: Tall and muscular

Eyes: Light green

Hair: Sandy blond

Specialty: Navigation, terrain reading, strength 

Samuel Wickie, more commonly known among his friends and the squad as Sam or Wicks, is a young man from the Surdan lakeside town of Forlis. Towering over his teammates and cutting an imposing, muscular figure for such a height, most outside his social circle give him a wide berth. Sam is, however, one of the softest of the Special Tactics and Recon Wolfcats, clinging to his youthful outlook and always first to smile.

Sam was chosen for the Wolfcats for his uncanny navigation abilities, as well as his physical strength. Growing up on the shores of Tüdosten Lake, Sam spent his childhood illegally crossing over into Alagaësia to trade with other settlements across the lake. Whenever a route would be pinned down by Broddring soldiers, Sam would be the first to find a new one, over land or through the water. Maps were dangerous, as they could be easily seized by the patrolling soldiers, so Sam learned to read and memorize terrain.

His routes required him to carry whatever he wanted to barter with, and he never turned down requests from the villagers on either side of the border. Sam never viewed the people of Alagaësia as an enemy, only the soldiers, and preferred to help his fellow man rather than fight. As Galbatorix began cracking down on Surda’s encroaching border, however, Sam found himself in the position of being hunted by emboldened Broddring patrols. To save his family and in hopes of getting official Varden and Surdan support for Forlis, Sam joined the Varden as a recruit and has been with the Wolfcats ever since.

Sam is close with Caleb, the two young men thoroughly enjoying each other’s complimenting lighthearted personalities. Sam does his best to keep Caleb as young as possible, feeling responsible for him like an older brother, and won’t hesitate to put his foot down regarding Caleb’s safety. His feelings are understandable when looking to his family’s past: at only 14, Sam’s younger brother Malcom drowned while evading a Broddring patrol on the lake. Against his brother’s orders, Malcom had been attempting to take over his brother’s duties while Sam was ill, and had never crossed the lake alone before. Sam, though quick to smile and of sunny disposition, never quite forgave himself for the loss.

Like most people of Forlis, Sam wears a beaded braid in his hair, with each bead representing a feat of strength, cunning, agility, or bravery. Sam has four beads, two for feats of strength he performed while helping villagers, one for cunning after his years of dodging Broddring patrols, and one for his bravery for joining the Varden.

Soren-066 (alive as of 2527)

Rene-081 (washout, possibly rehabilitated)

Joseph-122 (alive as of 2525)

Carris-137 (alive as of 2520)

Spartans-116, 118, 119, 121, 123, and 124 (possibly the unidentified trainee and Spartan, as well ass Beta-Romeo Actual, Red-Fifteen, Red Four, and Red Nineteen)

Missing numbers:

Spartans number 001, 002, 003, 004, 007, 009, 012, 013, 014, 015, 016, 017, 020, 021, 022, 024, 026, 027, 032, 033, 035, 036, 038, 040, 041, 045, 046, 048, 049, 050, 054, 055, 056, 057, 060, 061, 063, 064, 067, 068, 070, 071, 072, 074, 076, 077, 078, 080, 082, 083, 085, 086, 088, 089, 090, 091, 094, 097, 098 (according to the silver timeline, Spartan-098 is named "Nora"), 100, 102, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 112, 113, 114, 115, 126, 127, 128, 131, 132, 133, 135, 136, 138, 139, 140, 142, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 150 (I'm sure I messed up somewhere)

obviously given that not all 150 candidates were recruited, some (about 70) of these numbers did not actually become Spartans, trainees or otherwise, such as Caleb-095, the father of Olympia Vale

Additionally, Spartans-028 (Riz), 125 (Kai), and 134 (Vanak) do exist per 343's internal documentation, but as of yet have not appeared in the Prime timeline

therefore there are about 19 confirmed living Spartans, 24 confirmed dead, 7 possible dead, and 12 unknowns, for a total of 62 (or 65 counting the silvers), so there are at least 10-13 other Spartans we have not met, be they active, retired, washout, dead, or missing

[bloodgulchblog]

Bro, here is your chance to sell me on blue team. Halo 5 was a shitty introduction to them.

Alright. Alright. Since you asked... :3c

Things to know about Blue Team:

"Blue Team" refers to John, Fred, Kelly, and Linda. (And Sam before he died and, for a little while, Kurt, but I'm not here to talk about him.) Blue Team being a set group is kind of a lategame thing because the S-IIs divided themselves up into color-based teams (Red and Green are also reused a lot, Grey Team and Black Team generally had fixed members tho) depending on how they needed to split up for whatever they were doing, but Blue is always the one John is leading personally. Blue Team as we know it is.... kind of a result of how John's team is one of the few groups of S-IIs left alive. 8,)

The first members of Blue Team (besides John, obviously) we're introduced to are Kelly-087 and Samuel-034, and this is on day one of Spartan training. The kids are split into teams and told they need to find their way through a jungle gym obstacle course, and the last team to make it through doesn't get dinner.

John is grouped with Kelly and Sam. John, age 6, was a cocky little shit and a playground bully. He takes off on his own and is the first to ring the bell, leaving Kelly and Sam to struggle along and come in last, which means they're the last team to finish. John sulks about this and studiously avoids Kelly and Sam until they have to do the same exercise again the next day.

It's a good little scene so I'll share it because I care about it.

Sam was strong, self-assured, and became John's usual second-in-command as John increasingly took on leadership roles. He was notably the tallest of them all.

Kelly was smart-mouthed and lightning fast, frequently scouting or acting as bait to draw out adversaries in training exercises. They called this job being the team's "rabbit" and there's a rabbit painted on Kelly's armor in some renditions of her, which is a fun detail.

The latter two members of Blue Team are Fred-104 and Linda-058.

I'll let Nylund introduce Blue Team as they were in John's eyes before their first op, not long after augmentation and not long before the introduction of MJOLNIR armor.

This is, of course, far more than Halo 5 bothered to give you:

Fred-104 I've been talking about a lot lately but: latent leadership potential, higher empathy than average for a Spartan-II, good with knives (as established).

Linda-058 is probably the least developed of the team, if I'm honest, and part of that is because she's quiet and focused and is probably the one that participates the least in Spartan Humor (TM). I think the cutest detail we have about her is that Spartan-IIs really are not much for awards and medals, and the only ones Linda prizes are the ones she's earned in target shooting competitions. (There's also a short comic series about Linda on a mission alone, but I haven't read it yet.)

"Okay, but what happened to Sam, isn't he dead or something?" you may ask. Yes, yes is the answer. While there were Spartan deaths in augmentation, Sam was the first one to die in the field.

Right after the young Spartans were first issued MJOLNIR, they were sent to take out a small Covenant ship. John, Kelly, and Sam made it on board and were working on blowing the thing up.

They succeeded, but something went wrong.

Welcome to one of the foundational traumatic experiences of John's life.

The Spartans were 14 when this happened.

Over the intervening years, Fred ended up taking Sam's old right-hand job.

The next emotionally significant material we get for Blue Team is, naturally, during the fall of Reach. All of the Spartan-IIs that are able to return to Reach are on deck for it. Most of them need to go into the ground fighting, but there's a ship parked in orbit with an unsecured navigation database that needs to be scrubbed and the Spartans also need to deal with that. John takes Linda and a third Spartan (James-005, who is mostly notable for having lost an arm at some point) and designates the three of them as Blue Team for the space op, because it's more dangerous. Fred takes the rest of the Spartans (Red Team) groundside.

All of them would rather go to space though.

(These bits from Fred are from First Strike, where it flashes back to the start of this mess so we can follow Red Team through it.)

Also, here's a good bit with Fred's nerves getting to him and Kelly being supportive. Important To Me.

Insertion gets befuckened and the groundside team ends up having to free fall a long way in just their armor, just about everyone is injured and four die straight up on impact.

Shit goes bad in space, too: James is knocked off into open space and cannot be recovered, and Linda is killed. Literally, Linda is killed. She's clinically dead. John manages to shove her in cryo fast enough there's a slim chance for her if she can get immediate medical help on thaw, but the odds for that are long.

Linda is, extremely technically, there in the first Halo. She's just unseen in a cryo pod for the whole thing. The novel that bridges Halo 1 and Halo 2, First Strike, has John manage to find and recover her cryo pod in an incredible stroke of luck at the very start. John has a lot of Big Emotions about the other Spartan-IIs in First Strike because he has every reason to believe he might be the only one left alive.

First Strike is great because there's a lot of John worrying about his team, desperately wanting a chance to get back to Reach and find out what happened to them, and his relief when they do manage to find some surviving Spartans that got out of that mess alive is great. (And, because they recovered Halsey too, they have a doctor in the house who can stabilize Linda.)

This quiet little moment of the Spartans together is actually one of my favorites in all of Halo. John loves them so much but is also isolated from them, and it just makes my heart hurt. (Also this scene touches on the "does John sacrifice Johnson by letting ONI know that Johnson was rejected by the Flood" subplot which is another important John thing in First Strike, but that's not what this post is about.)

(Also in relation to my complaining about how Troy Denning makes Fred a funnyman: hey, look, the Spartans do bullshit around with each other a little! They're very close! It's just... not the way Troy Denning does it at all.)

John is separated from his team again back on Earth because, you know, the attack on Earth is maximum chaos time and they end up fighting elsewhere. Also, Halsey stole Kelly and fucked off in the direction of Onyx with her, but that's a whole chunk of a whole book.

By the time the battle at the Ark happens, every other Spartan we see in these bits except for John, Fred, Kelly, and Linda is dead. (They're not the only Spartan-IIs left, I forget how many canonical surviving Spartan-IIs we have at that point, but the number is still tiny.)

I was glad to see Blue Team in Halo 5, but also it didn't really do anything to establish who these characters are for the audience besides including some brief dossiers on the Halo Waypoint website.

So, that's Blue Team. I care about them. ;;

Line Upon Line Lesson 034: Two Wrongs Do Not Make a Right

Genesis 34:2 - And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and violated her.

This story is something that could come out of today’s headlines. An innocent girl was raped by the son of a wealthy influential leader.  Dinah was clearly a victim in this story.  Her future prospects were now diminished in society as a non-virgin girl.  More importantly, imagine the mental and emotional trauma she suffered as a result of this assault.

What were the reactions of Jacob and his family?

Let’s read together Genesis 34:5-7.

Why did Jacob hold his peace?  Why didn’t he say anything?  There are a couple of possibilities.  Perhaps Jacob did not want to act rashly, even though he may have been angry.  Perhaps he was afraid of getting into conflict with the Hivites, who were much stronger than him.  Perhaps the responsibility to react lay with Dinah’s brothers and Jacob wanted to confer with them first.

Let’s read together Genesis 34:8-12, Proverns 20:22; Micah 6:8; and 2 Corinthians 6:14.

Shechem, Dinah’s rapist, wanted to marry her.  Schechem’s father Hamor brought a marriage proposal to Jacob.  He also proposed Jacob’s people to intermarry with the Hivites.  This way they would become one people.

Let’s read together Genesis 34;13-31; 2 Samuel 12:14; Proverbs 20:22; and Romans 12:19.

Dinah’s brothers deceitfully answered Hamor and said they would agree to his proposal if the Hivites got circumcised. Shechem readily agreed to their condition since Dinah would become his without him suffering any consequences. Since Shechem was highly esteemed and respected by the Hivites, he was able to convince them to be circumcised.

Dinah’s sons attacked the Hivites while they were recovering from circumcision and slew all the males in the city,  They then plundered the city of its livestock and wealth.  They even took the Hivite women and children captive.

There is no question Shechem should have been punished for what he did to Dinah.  However, Jacob’s sons did not bring him to justice.  They executed vengeance upon the Hivites. 

God wants us to act justly.  May we learn the difference between God’s justice and man’s vengeance.

The Battle of the Marshmallows

Dust clears as the camera pans over a destroyed field, Owl, seen dust and soot covered, looks to the camera. Owl: It is day two of the Great Marshmallow War, dubbed the Battle of Epic Proportions by Nerd as tensions rise, the Toasted ones are quiet. The camera pans across the field where trenches had been dug out. The scenes change with Owl voicing over, the trenches are small, and few people are seen: the Toasted have fewer numbers than their foes, but they prove to be a valiant foe against the Burnt ones. Here is Nerd, who seems to be the leader of the fight.

The camera shows a shadowed figure sitting by a campfire, warming up what appear to be bullets made of toasted marshmallows. Owl continues with the voice over: Marshmallow bullets, formed from sugar, and hardened in the fire to a golden brown. They are duller than the competing ‘burned’ bullets which use the fire to completely harden the marshmallow, unfortunately it makes it more brittle, but packs a bigger punch. Another shadowy figure walks up to the shadow known as “Nerd.” They carry two smaller figures, who once set down immediately run to Nerd, grabbing the burned bullets. From the shadows Linda approaches, a sniper rifle held in her hand.

Linda: They are setting up the cannons. Fred is stocking ammunition. A boom is heard and the camera shakes. Changing scenes to the other side of the field. The Burnt ones. Trenches lit with fire, they walk on warm coals. Owl’s voice over continues.

Owl: The Burnt ones, larger in numbers, having the advantage of having the famous Spartan John-117. They are louder, and send off routine cannon firing, a display of power. As if on cue, a cannon is shot, the flaming ball of burned marshmallows shooting high into the air before exploding into a flare of flames. A shadowy wolf howls and pushes another flaming coal into the side of the trench. Kelly drops down from the top of the trench, and wacks John on the shoulder. There is no reason for it, and the situation dissolves as John and Kelly start yelling at one another. The camera switches back to Owl, who narrowly sidesteps a fallen chunk of flaming marshmallows: Mediation efforts continue as Samuel-034 tries to calm the sides. Camera changes to the lone tree, barely standing in the destroyed field. A tattered “flag” of white is tied to the branches. The Spartan is seen sitting in the tree, reading a book. A close up reveals the title “How to get your children to stop fighting” The camera pans back to Owl as another boom shakes the ground. A flying chunk of what was a cannonball hits the camera, knocking it off of its stand. The screen goes dark.

Feel free to add onto the story either though message/reblog/comments. I’ll add it/reblog it in another post :D

Happy birthday to Spartan Kurt Ambrose!

Today is his -488th birthday!

Kurt Ambrose was born Kurt Trevelyan on Circumstance. Like all SPARTAN-II candidates, he was identified as exceptional by Dr. Catherine Halsey, kidnapped, and replaced with a flash clone. Kurt was one of the top candidates of the program, with Franklin Mendez believing that he would lead the Spartans. Like all Spartans, he possessed physical and mental prowess, but he also displayed a sociable nature that was unusual for the Spartans. Like John-117, his closest competitor, he had strong instincts and a tendency for luck to fall in his favor of his intuition.

Kurt became the leader of Green Team. Like all Spartan-IIs, his intital deployments were against Insurrectionist groups. However, after the Human-Covenant war began, his training was accelerated and he was sent to combat the Covenant.

After the death of Samuel-034, Kurt was assigned to Blue Team. While uneasy with the replacement of their friend, he was welcomed into the team. During one of their missions, Kurt's armor malfunctioned, sending him into space, where he was marked as MIA and presumed dead. However, the suit malfunction was actually orchestrated by ONI under the orders of Colonel Ackerson, who wanted to use Kurt for his secret project: training the next generation of Spartans. Ackerson knew Halsey would attempt to stop him, so he had Kurt and the new recruits sent to the secret shield world Onyx to be trained. He gave Kurt the surname Ambrose, which he would need for his officer's commission, as Kurt's indoctrination was so complete that he forgot the name he was born with.

Kurt would begin training the new conscripts alongside Mendez, the same person who had trained Kurt and his peers. Kurt cared deeply for the trainees and was devastated when he lost Alpha and Beta company, blaming himself despite the fact that SPARTAN-IIIs were intentionally treated as more disposable than their previous generation. Shaken by his losses, he had Gamma company enhanced with illegal augmentations, which were risky but increased their odds of survival.

In 2552, there was an outbreak on conflict on Onyx. During this conflict, he discovered that Catherine Halsey and Kelly-087 made their way to Onyx after fleeing the Covenant invasion of Reach. Halsey was furious to discover the SPARTAN-III program, but happy to see Kurt alive. They were joined by Blue Team, minus John, who were there to assist in finding Forerunner technology that Halsey believed was located within Onyx. This was a lie, as Halsey actually intended to activate the planet's defenses and protect herself and her Spartans after the UNSC lost the war.

As all this was happening, the Great Schism had just begun in the Covenant. Fleetmaster Voro Nar 'Mantakree joined a group of Sangheili shipmasters who defected from the Covenant but maintained their faith and hatred of Humanity. 'Mantakree discovered the operations on Onyx, and took his feet to attack the shield world.

The subsequent battle left Kurt mortally wounded, and, at the protest of those under his command, he insisted on being left behind. However, before his death, he primed multiple nuclear warheads, and used himself as bait to lure 'Mantakree's forces to him. Once they were in range, he activated them, killing 'Mantakree and his entire fleet and saving the survivors.

Kurt's armor transponder continued to emit a signal that was detected by the UNSC, leading to the survivors' rescue. With the outer "shield" of Onyx destroyed, the remaining Dyson sphere was officially dubbed "ONI Research Facility Trevelyan", named in Kurt's honor using his real surname at Halsey's behest.

Avery and Miranda met in middle school but start dating much much later

Johnson adopts sam, john, fred, linda and Kelly as little babies. He just saw them at like a community charity and went "yep. They're mine now"

They're still called 'blue team'. They are often swaddled in identical blue blankets so that's their nickname

Miranda has cortana when the kids are like 5

Finally a few years later miranda and Avery start dating

Jacob (aka grandpa) has been waiting FOREVER

Like avery and 'blue team' are already in the will. No man besides avery is fit for his daughter

Chips dubbo is here! As the kids super fun somehow functional uncle slash babysitter

John is the kind of kid that will die in a nuclear explosion before missing school

"JOHNATHON KEYES-JOHNSON" is a common thing to be heard around exam time

Avery is a "if they're alive, fed, clean, dressed and not screaming, everything's good" kind of parent

"So what my daughter doesn't have a girly haircut? Least she ain't bald."

Kelly: "Sure."

John: "Okay. Friends."
