User:CarpeJugulum

Well, howdy there, and welcome to the humble userpage of CarpeJugulum. I'm a new user to HF (joined March 2009), but I belong to several other Wikis (I'm PumasAreReal from Halopedia, if anyone remembers me), and I'm here to write some fanon. Any questions? Good.

My Fanon
My fanon here on HF is going to be written in series of articles. The first one will be the Fifty-Years' War series. This takes place in the early to late twenty-seventh century. It's still a work in progress, but I like where it's going thus far.

My Inspiration
I'd like to tell you that muses whisper the words to write in my ears as I sleep, but in reality some of my stuff is original, some is inspired by other stuff I've read, and I steal some ideas I love. (Sorry Tom Clancy.)

Like I said, Tom Clancy's books are one source I use when I'm running low, as are the works of Harry Turtledove and, my favorite, World War II.

Quotes
Some quotes I like. "How dare you? How dare you? At this time! In this place! They did the job they didn't have to do, and they died doing it, and you can't give them anything. Do you understand? They fought for those who'd been abandoned, they fought for each other, and they were betrayed. Men like them always are. What good would a statue be? It'd just inspire new fools to believe they're going to be heroes. They wouldn't want that. Just let them be. Forever."

- Samuel Vimes, from Terry Pratchett's Night Watch.

"Lord, we know that there is no good order except that which we create. There is no hope but us. There is no mercy but us. There is no justice. There is just us. All things that are, are ours. But we must care. For if we do not care, we do not exist. If we do not exist, then there is nothing but blind oblivion. And even oblivion must end someday. Lord, will you grant me just a little time? For the proper balance of things. To return what was given. For the sake of prisoners and the flight of birds. Lord, what can the harvest hope for, if not for the care of the Reaper Man?"

- Death's plea before Azrael, from Terry Pratchett's Reaper Man.

"That's all right. We'll kill the intelligentsia. You just concentrate on developing things that kill soldiers and the uneducated."

- Agent Settile, from Karen Traviss' Aspho Fields.
