Re: What would be your 'home' in the Halo universe

In Response To: What would be your 'home' in the Halo universe? (Postmortem)

: Many fictional universes come to mean so much to so many people that they end
: up taking on a life of their own within the minds of those fans. I believe
: many of us can attest to this fact. That's why, when things change so much
: from what we perceive as reality in our minds, it can so often lead to
: disappointment.

: But I think more interesting than that is where many of us end up feeling
: comfortable within a universe. Often times this leads us to gravitate
: towards one character or another, based on their exploration of the story
: as it relates to our own preferences.

: That's why Harry Potter fans tend to associate themselves with Ravenclaw or
: Griffindor, why Star Trek fans wish they could live on Deep Space 9 and
: interact with all the various species passing through, and why many Star
: Wars fans would love to attend a Jedi Academy and learn the ways of the
: Force.

: The question I'm posing to you guys is this: If the Halo universe were real,
: and you could live or work there, where would you want to be?

: And really think about this. I'll be disappointed if everyone says "the
: Spartan program" or "ODST".

: Personally, I would want to be a part of Infinity Science. Getting to travel
: to various alien worlds, work around the most advanced tech humanity has
: to offer, and interact with those Engineers (and maybe any other Covenant
: that end up onboard). Field studies would be a blast, as well as any work
: done in the lab. Not to mention the Infinity has so many excellent
: recreational areas. I'd love to spend an evening in the arboretum,
: thinking through my latest studies.

: Other than that, being a part of the colonization effort on a new planet.
: Preferably one that requires little terraforming and already has an
: ecosystem of its own.

: Dat flora and fauna. :)

Some sort of consultant assigned to a UNSC ship. Don't fancy myself a fighter so the military is out, but even a job that was on some UNSC frigate or cruiser would be cool. Then you'd get to visit planets and see the ship's technology. The downside would be cryosleep.
