-This whole thing was a really, really late jump into the rvb fake season meme.

- @sharkface-daydreams was technically right.

-The original title was going to be ‘Worst Duty Station’ and even now the chapter documents in my googledocs is labeled that.

-Sergeant Major * (Walla L. Walla, or Walla L. Major) doesn’t know what the L. in her name stands for. All she knows is that her original name started with that letter. She, and by extension the rest of Humble Team, were mentally conditioned to forget their original names. 

-If Lupus gave himself a combined name like O'Malley and Gary did, he would choose "Lobo" (Loco and Caboose) to fit in with the whole wolf theme. I didn’t put it in because he already has two names he’s constantly jumping between in the narration.

-Flash cloning brains is still illegal in the UEG, however Chorus is no longer under the jurisdiction of the UEG/UNSC. Even so, in season 17 episode “Schrodingin” Dr. Grey shows that she has no qualms about committing major fraud as long as she can help a patient.

-Major Washington’s command partnership with Simmons is severely stunted because Wash is still dealing with his current condition, and he’s having a hard time coping with his memory loss and mood swings. This has caused him to lash out constantly at Simmons helping him, even though listening to Simmons plan would probably improve the quality of his life when dealing with his current disability.

-Dr. Grey didn’t adopt just Detective Apollo, she’s stated she  “taken a few wards”. Mathews is one of those wards, as Dr. Grey is one of the few people left on Chorus who knows sign language. The Rebel Medic is another one, granted she’s a little bit older than Mathews and Detective Apollo (both are sixteen, Rebel Medic is close to 18).

-On the same vein, Palomo is President Kimball’s ward. She was going to take in Jensen as well, but Jensen refused because of the ‘foster sibling’ implications.

-Volleyball, McCallister, and Ghanoush are all between 18-21.

-Bitters, Andersmith, and Randy are actually pretty close in age to the Reds and Blues, only being in their mid-twenties. (Kaikaina is the youngest, but she’sin her early-to-mid twenties while the main group of the Reds and Blues are in their late twenties to early thirties except for Sarge and the Freelancers)

-There’s context clues throughout the entire story hinting at some weird shit that hasn’t been said yet and that’s all I’m saying about it.

-Sergeant Major has only been banned from Fort Drum. Don’t get me wrong, she does have an extensive record of Article 15′s and Court Martials, and a lot of stuff that would get a regular soldier either kicked out or thrown in jail, but Detective Apollo was definitely embellishing when she first met her and “praised” her “accomplishments”.

-Sergeant Major is definitely a potential physical threat to most of the Reds and Blues because she is a Spartan-III, but always remember that Caboose absolutely could crush her like an empty soda can and chuck her all the way across the canyon, and she knows that. 

-Lupus/Loco and Caboose have a very emotionally and mentally intimate relationship, but they are not romantically involved.
