"You could sit down and eat, y'know?" Aaron comments. "It's not like you're restricted from food."

"My duty comes first before my meals." Vera stated.

"Can I order you to sit down and eat?" He asked.

"No,"

Rolling his eyes, the Spartan finished off a plate of steak and eggs then moved on to a bowl of oatmeal. "Suit yourself."

Vera watched the young human eat his meal, trying her best not to stare at the wonderful smell that festered her nostrils. Seared meat, sweet treats, and even fruit-scented drinks.

*Grumble*

The Sangheili's dark leathery cheeks colored in embarrassment as the humans around her glance in her general direction, amusement written all over their smooth faces.

Aaron smirked up at the female alien then offered a plate of smoked sausages and bacon to her.

Reluctantly, Vera accepted her charge's offer and slowly ate the cooked meat, munching on it between her mandibles. She savored the delectable taste of protein as a soft, satisfied sound left her throat.

"Good, huh?" The Spartan IV chuckled at his so-called 'bodyguard'.

"It is... good." She replied, looking away with a tinge of red on her face.

And the legend of a new tsundere alien waifu was born

"Keep firing! Don't let them get through!" The Master Sergeant commanded, just as the marine next to him cried out in pain when a bullet struck him in between his eyes.

I don't think it's actually possible to have the time to register pain when you're shot in the head, ever less cry out in pain.

The remaining three regained enough mobility to take cover behind some of the support pillars. They started shouting at each other in Slavic. However, Aaron wasn't here to snoop in on their little gossip play.

Hostiles speaking a east European language. In space. ... Is this Halo or CoD Infinity Warfare?

With cold fear gripping her heart, Ilsa pushed her way past her subordinates. "Get out of my way!" She shouted, sprinting out of the Bridge and making her way to the nearest escape pod.

The rebel soldier she knocked down, glanced at the door his leader ran out of. "Hey, that's just rude!"

Taking a page from Grievous' leadership manual, I see

Princess Celestia was many things: Wise, patient, beautiful, confident, gentle, and a glutton for sweets.

Those are all qualities that I appreciate in a woman

Not bad, a few details left me a bit off, like the chromatic choice for Aaron's armor and the fact that he's carrying enough weapon to make Commander Shepard envious (which not only clashes with the tactical mindset of the Halo games in choosing your weapon in the most balanced way but it's also impractical from a more realistic point of view: in real life, bullets require space and that's only so much you can carry around, especially when every gun uses a different kind of ammo) , but all in all it's nice start. I see that you have a good knowledge of the Halo lore from the expanded universe and I'm curious to see what will happen when they will find themselves in Equestria.

It's cool to see a new halo story up

A "cool" protagonist uses the powers of darkness (or author's favorite video game powers) to fight against his foes. The creativity is almost too much. This might evolve to some form of god/Sue later in the story, but that's a coin flip.

Somewhere along the way he'll meet Princess Twilight Sparkle and she'll instantly "feel a connection" with him, for whatever reasons. Maybe he saves her, maybe they're born with it, maybe it's plot convenience. She tries talking about friendship, he'll claim how he's feared, hated, powerful, and his way of life is superior. She'll act OOC and say, "Wow, you must have have bad friends, but open up to me", and will either cure him with her womanly wiles or learn to live with his edge.

After that, we'll go down two alternate routes. Harem route and solo route.

Harem Route includes him meeting all the mane 6 (anthro here, so more like Furry 6) and, one by one, converts them to his harem. Details aren't important, he'll just do it because. Go on to Solo route as not much else changes.

Solo route: The girls all confide in him and allow the OC to lead them, despite having no reason to. Twilight would make a better leader, but for some reason this nobody who is nothing more than a punk will have good plans, a solid head, "plot" powers and leadership under his belt.

Slowly ramp up to final boss, some form of god, defeat it through friendship or edge (your choice).

Extra points if you entertain the following:

OC never faces serious threats

Everyone acts OOC around the OC

OC one-ups everyone in everything they're good in

Now, this is just by going off the description and general trends. Not 100% accurate, but I think it's a close enough guesstimate to be valuable.

I'm still debating if I want the Spartan to meet Twilight Sparkle as a princess or before she became one.

Harem or solo route, still debating. Though the OC will be facing threats. Just because he's a Spartan IV with better functioning armor, doesn't make him invincible. Besides, I've learned that you have to build a character up through each chapter, have them grow through your imagination.

Still, you've brought up some considerable ideas.

Well, I'm pleased you like it. The rebels speaking in Slavic actually came from something I learned in the Halo universe. Most of the Innies speak in an Eastern European accent. It could be Slavic, Hungarian, or even Russian.

Also, it is possible to register pain from a gunshot wound to the head. Your brain will send fireworks of agony for a few milliseconds then you die. It's the same even when your head gets cut off.

As for the numerous guns on Aaron's person, it's not that I didn't want to give him just two weapons to balance it out, but because I wanted to try a loophole that I found around the MJOLNIR armor. From what I've seen, the armor itself has magnetic properties to keep any metallic object situated either on the back or the thighs. So I used that loophole for my character. And let me ask this, how can Spartans carry ammo magazines when they have no visible pouches on their armor? And I'm not talking about the stuff on Halo: Reach.

"Ideas"? Those are cliches that a large number of displaced "writers" seem to pull off a checklist. I was guessing what would happen having read this and the legion of it's mass produced clones on this site.

I wish for more please (at your own pace)

8774520
Ah, my mistake then. I overthink stuff.

8774544
You wish for more? I shall give you more. (At my own pace)

Good shit

Thank you.

EXTREMELY MOIST!!!

You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention...

And done. Thanks for letting the a-holes win jerk.

:/ Who won? Because, last time I checked. The ship EXPLODED ON THE CAPTAIN'S ORDERS. The rebels didn't win because they're objective was to capture the ship for more hardware, parts, and supplies. So they didn't win. And our heroes didn't win either. So... Who are the "Aholes" in this situation?
