Trivia[edit]As a fan of the machinima webseries Red vs Blue, Karen Traviss made several references to the series in her Kilo-Five Trilogy. The most prominent is the pronunciation of "Phillips" by the Sangheili as "Phyllis", which reference to two AIs in the machinima: F.I.L.S.S. and Sheila, whose original name was Phyllis.[2] Sources[edit] |
