i love when a character figures out that chief is making a not-immediately-obvious joke at them. sometimes he does oneliners but also silence is so much a part of the character. sometimes the teasing isn't in the words he says, but in the not saying.
the little click when another character figures out he's playing with them.
Randomly thinking about when Jeff Easterling’s brother wrote about Fred to commemorate the 104th issue of Canon Fodder. It always makes me smile.
Today, we are talking about a Spartan. But not just any Spartan. The best Spartan.
“Another article about the Master Chief?” I hear you say.
WRONG.
But it not the Master Chief, then who? Super-secret agent Locke? Nope. Hyper-lethal lone wolf Noble-6? Wrong again.
We are talking about the man, the myth, the absolute unit, Fred-104. Now you may be thinking that Fred is just another Spartan-II, a supporting character. Allow me to hit you with a Mjolnir-wrapped reality check.
Literally every time Fred is mentioned in the expanded lore, it is to talk about what an absolute legend he is. In Spartan boot camp, John notices that Fred came in second place at almost everything, but the Chief can see that it’s just because Fred doesn’t like the attention of coming in first. My dude HELD BACK in Spartan School just so he wouldn’t be showered by constant, well-deserved praise. Master chief describes him as the best spotter and second-best shooter – and let me remind you that is second only to teammate Linda, the person who snipes elites out of banshees hanging from a tightrope upside-down. But you want to know how Fred prefers to fight? By literally bringing a knife to a gunfight.
He is a natural leader, beloved and respected by his subordinates, and a brilliant strategist, relying on both instincts and intellect. Whenever John needs to put someone in charge, guess who it is? Fred. Whenever there are two missions, guess who volunteers for the one that sucks more? FRED. Because he’s just that kind of guy.
And while we haven’t gotten a clear look at the Chief’s face recently, we can probably assume, not a looker. Our man Fred on the other hand? His good looks are mentioned on more than one occasion, and that voice, come on! Easily on par with the pipes of our beloved Master Chief.
Also, did I forget to mention that at the time of Halo 5, Lieutenant Junior Grade Fred-104 is the SENIOR OFFICER on blue team? That’s right folks, you’re looking at Master Chief’s boss. But even then, he steps aside and lets Chief have the spotlight.
So for this specially-numbered occasion, join me in raising a glass for our brilliant boy, Blue-3.
