Has it occurred to you guys that he may have dropped the codex during the battle, and had to pull back without having time to retrieve it?
i'm happily assuming that the battle went fine and he just DIDN'T BOTHER TO UPDATE IT once he got off-world i know i'm certainly shit at keeping journals.
That's assuming it made it back into his hands. The USCM might have taken it to serve as evidence as to what took place on the planet. We promised never to speak of that again.
Admittedly, I wanted to leave his fate up in the air. Canonically, I believe he survived. There. Happy?
Great story! For some strange reason, the ending made me laugh, either because I'm a realy cruel person or because I was imagining the main character as a walrus. But it really was a good ending.
"Nothing... Intimate happened..." So PG you (>_o)-b A short classic, and fan teaser. You sunnuva kangaroo you!
So that's the end of it? Wow, ok, no probs. Just ignore my shattered heart over here. I at least hope he's still alive...
