:::I generally agree with that, though I've come to think that Macer will actually make it out too. The line about the Tug being "cramped for a two-seater" to me was a dead giveaway that only two will make it, but also that ''specifically'' two will. Macer seems fairly set up to be Locke's future partner of some sort, since we seem to always have a male/female pairing like that; specifically she would fill the role of Locke's Cortana extremely well. Her personality and attitude seem more developed and less achetype-like, and she's also smart and flies ships (the Tug says hi). Locke saying she should be ONI or a Spartan felt like foreshadowing, as did her response to it, which was mainly in body language. It's also worth noting that while Locke is the least ONI-like ONI member, Macer is the least Sedran-like Sedran. It would feel a bit wrong to kill off ''all'' the Sedrans. It would also be ''really'' nice to break the Miranda/Chyler/Cortana pattern, especially when one of those was the other live action series. They could definitely kill her off too, but right now I'm leaning toward not, though I am still rather worried.

::::"''It's also possible that "Spartan" is a codename for the main cast ...''" I had considered that and I'm afraid it may be so. Maybe Locke and Co. ''were'' Spartans in early drafts of the story and the change just never clicked with the behind-the-scenes crew. | |||
::::Could Macer survive? Quite possibly. I'd like Randall to make it out but I highly doubt that'll happen. I hope some greater agency behind the attack is revealed in later episodes, making the former Spartan's death more meaningful. Right now it seems as though the element was created by chance; the attack was carried out for the usual xenophobic reasons; and the smugglers and Lekgolo are simply present by happenstance. --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our vengeance is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 06:37, 21 November 2014 (EST) | |||
