Author's Commentary - 'Cause Dragonclaws is just that pretentious

 * So, yeah, it should be clear by now that the parents are lesbians. I did this because of the significant lack of gay characters in Halo. At the time of writing it, I had not read Halo: Evolutions, and my motives can be explained by the article He Was My Lover. To elaborate, when we were making CD as a machinima, we had numerous rewrites of the script, which was one of the reasons it never panned out. One thing that gave us pause was that the (male) actors kept bringing their girlfriends onto the project, and we didn't have many female characters. I decided to write the story outline with several main female characters, thus coming with the character I now call Dr. Simone Lee. Originally, she was to have a husband named Michael, which would be a minor character there for comic relief. Now that I'm in the comic/graphic novel medium, I don't have to worry about actors, and I can make anyone female or male. Well, the characters, anyway. :)
 * Man, I need to get more accounts with unlocked armor...
 * There's a City Slickers reference here. "Lord, we give you Curly. Try not to piss him off."
