Talk:Miranda Keyes

question? how do the Arbiter, Johnson, and miranda get back to earth from delta halo and how come in halo three you dont find 343 guilty spark until the 5th level because at the end of the second game he was with the arbiter, johnson and miranda

When does it say that Chief and Keyes have a sibling-like relationship? the whole "mother of Miranda" thing is absurd, remove it

over and out,

hey someones mixing up there facts my guess is that the person was reading a certain fanfic meh--Plasmatag 00:13, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Everyone DOES know that she's holding an M6G pistol and an M90 shotgun in the trailer...right??? Poison headcrab 21:44, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

yeah i noticed that. if she can DW a shotgun and pistol, why cant MC?


 * I think its just for affect because in reality would be next to impossible to DW a shotgun and pistol -- MCDBBlits 19:26, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Does it really sound plausible that (even in the early script) she would betray MC by strapping a bomb to him and shoving him down a hole? Sounds kinda lame.--DanTheTall93 23:27, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Miranda may have been a different character entirely at this point, and remember that Jason Jones was probably feeling kind of bitter towards women at that point. -The Dark Lord Azathoth 02:10, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

The article says that in Halo 3, Miranda's a captain. Perhaps of her ship (currently crashed...), but her rank is still Commander.  Kora ‘Morhekee   The Battle-Net  My Conquests.  22:41, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

miranda seemed to gain some weight...lol something i thought i'd point out haha Hollywood 08:42, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

What I dont understand is: How in the world did she, Johnson and Arbiter ever make it back to Earth? I didnt read Halo: Uprising, so maybe the answer was in there. But if it wasn't, then how? Kap2310 22:15, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Rtas 'Vadum was capturing that ship, remember? He must have been successful, rallied some Covenant ships to head to Earth and brought the Arbiter, Johnson, Miranda, and Guilty Spark with him. The ship he captured, is likely, in my opinion to be the Shadow of Intent. Who knows, it's likely that the Arbiter, the Elites and the Humans had to work together to board it afterwards.

Miranda's Mother
Has anyone taken a look at the Halo 3 instruction manual yet? Anyone taken a look at the pictures of Cortana and Miranda? Notice a resemblance? If Cortana was created from Dr. Halsey's flash-cloned brain, I think this adds fuel to the speculation fire that Dr. Halsey is Miranda's mother.

I am not having anymore specualtions of her mother, it's pathetic. ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:59, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

I would have to agree that Halsey is Miranda's mother. It's quite evident in the novels that feelings are shared between Keyes and Halsey. It just makes sense.

Johnson and Keyes
When Keyes died, Johnson was slowly stroking her body and looking like he lost something special to him... what do you guys think... I have 2 things. 1. Johnson lost another Keyes and therefore remembered her father 2. Johnson and Keyes had a WAY more than professional relationship... which is unlikely...

I think you're merely suggesting Johnson is actually in love with Miranda Keyes. ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 11:47, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah basically. AJ 21:21, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I have thought of that, but I don't think MK actually register it. ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 11:19, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

I would reckon Johnson's feelings over his death is linked to the Jacob's death. Twice he tasked himself with the protection of a beloved commander and might blame himself for both of their deaths. In Halo CE he might feel guilty that he did not recognize the foreboding signs in the area and allow Keyes to come and become infected. Also Johnson is getting on in his years and would be cradle robbing essentially the daughter of a friend of equal age.

In the Audio Commentary of the Halo 2 cutscenes on the Legendary Edition of Halo 3, the developers joked that Johnson and Miranda were to have a "thing". Of course when it was suggested in the offices, it was suggested as a joke, just as it was in the commentary. I think it has more to do with the fact that he couldn't protect two famous military leaders/he became a quasi-father figure to Miranda during the war.

I'll go with that. Hey, did the Master Chief's shoulders seem kinda slumped when he was looking at them? My TV's too small to tell. User:Imperialscouts

Yeah, they did, actually. Gruntyking117 02:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Hmm...I wonder...do any of you think that means anything? (Sorry, I'm bored and need to look at evey possible and improbable thing in the game.)

User:Imperialscouts

Hey guys, this has nothing to do with this, but i knocked her down, like sgnt johnson and arbiter do, and started to teabag, and i hear "Chief, not here..."

i swear to gosh this is real and not a joke User:Unggoy117

unless you want to tell me HOW to knock her down (because she is invincible) I won't think you are telling the truth User:Imperialscouts

Relationship w/ Johnson
I'm pretty sure his grief was due to failing to protect both father and daughter. As for Halsey being her mother, I guess its possible, but I highly doubt it. Don113 02:35, 30 January 2008 (UTC)Don113

I think they were in a relationship. How often does a commander of a ship abandon her crew to save only one soldier? And then when Johnson told her to shoot him, she couldn't. Then Johnson started to grieve and stroke her body...MaiL 02:45, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Rank insignia mishap
So, Miranda is a commander, the rank equivalent to the rank of lieutenant colonel in the Marine Corps. Both ranks feature a silver oak leaf as the rank's insignia. The ranks of major and lieutenant commander have gold oak leafs. If you look on Miranda's collar in Halo 3 (I don't know if it's the same in Halo 2, haven't tried to check), as well as the image on the article, her insignia is of a gold oak leaf, not a silver. This would indicate she's a lieutenant commander, rather than commander. 22:15, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Would a lieutenant commander referred to as commander? (Like Master Chief instead of Master Chief Petty Officer.) And the ranking system may have changed. User:Imperialscouts
