Have a Conversation with a Character ...

I was reading some obscure little blurb about how “X” amount of Americans were asked “If you could have a conversation with a historical figure, who would it be?”
The answers weren’t too surprising, the top ones being Jesus, Ben Franklin, Shakespeare, Abe Lincoln, Reagan, Churchill, etc., you get the point.

So I was wondering, if I could have a conversation with a character from the Halo Universe, who would it be?

My first thought was Chief, but he’d probably just stare at me the whole time.

Then I thought Halsey, but I’d be afraid that she’d think I was too stupid and wouldn’t take me seriously.

Then I thought I’d like to talk to something Forerunner, so the Didact, but he’d probably compose me.

Then 343 Guilty Spark. He loves talking to reclaimers … now Chakas was a human, but he’s got 100,000 years of experience being a Forerunner AI, so he’d be great to chat with.

Then I thought, The Librarian, but she might mess with my genes.

So right now, I can’t decide between Spark, the Librarian, and Cortana. Probably going with the Librarian.

How about you guys? If you could have a conversation with one character from the Halo Universe, who would it be?

Probably 343 Guilty Spark, He is one of my favorite characters, and as long as there isn’t a flood outbreak to attend to, I bet he’d be fairly safe to talk to.

Probably the Arbiter. He’s one of the few Sangheili that are cool with humans in general, so I figured he’d be open to it.

Gravemind!

This fellow might have a lot of things to discuss.

But… I’d probably have to pick Johnson.
He knows what the people like.

If I could be ensured of my safety (both mental and physical) then I would like to have a conversation with the Primordial.

If you know, monstrous, pre-Gravemind Precursors are off the table then probably the Iso-Didact or Cortana.

Halsey. Yes, I’d like to speak with her yes yes. She’s so interesting.

The IsoDidact, all the wisdom of the Ur-Didact without the threat of him composing me.

i’d like to have a conversation with a Huragok or Dadab

Talk to the Ur-Didact. He strikes me as a reasonable enough character, without a composer or gravity restraint devices.
Besides, crazy warrior guys are my group.

Iso Didact most def. He was just to awesome.
Though Thel Vadam would be superb to talk to as well.
Leaving Fred, Kelly, Lucy, and Rookie out (my other four fave Halo characters) because the first two may not be too interesting to talk to and the later… yeah. xD

The two main people Id like to talk to is Admiral Preston Jeremiah Cole, because I believe him to be a true hero of humanity, that’s not a spartan, and Admiral Margaret Orlenda Parangosky because I truly love ONI and stand for everything they do. However Captain James “Jim” Gregory Cutter is also a great man Id love to talk to.

Troll?

For me Halsey because she is the most interesting person in the universe, there is a lot to talk about with her and we could exchange some information (maybe enough for her to “solve all the world’s problems”), the librarian, for the forerunner knowledge, the assembly and the “usual suspects” (curios about who the hell they are/is).
Could add many others, like Cortana, but with librarian and Halsey it would sound redundant.
Maybe a too long list, i’d like to talk to pretty much everyone (except from the gravemind, don’t want to get mad)

It depends on the conversation I want to have.

Depending on my mood, I would love to talk with Johnson for entertainment. Otherwise I would choose Halsey as her character is one of the most interesting. Plus she’s one of the most intelligent people in the entire Halo Universe so theres that. A conversation with Thel would also be pretty interesting… looks like we will have one in H2A.

343 Guilty Spark, just as long as he gives me a tour of his Installation while we’re at it.

I’m surprised few people have said Johnson.

He fought the insurrection at one of it’s worst. He fought on Harvest, surviving every year of the Human-Covenant war and surviving the Flood. The man has to have some stories to tell.

Probably Halsey.

She could tell us so much.

But the Ur-Didact did so much more than that.
Besides, Johnson is pretty boss, but he has no force manipulating armor. :slight_smile:

I’d like to talk to Chief, see what he has to say (if any), and then Del Rio because I’d like to know why he was such a -Yoink!- to Chief.

A Huragok. While I’m talking to it…it would improve my Jeep Cherokee. Then I’d ask it to make a cake.
