Disclaimer: Halo is Bungies
Takes Place: Post Halo 3
A/N: Human!Cortana
Not many people knew this, but John was well versed in playing a musical instrument. The Piano, to be precise. Get him on one of those things, and everyone in the room is guaranteed to shut the hell up to listen. Of course, he dosen't let many people hear him play, he's shy about his talent. He can count the number of people who've heard him play on one hand. Dr. Halsey heard him play as a child, Linda and Sam heard him play during the training, and Cortana hears him now. She dances to the music, her own melody in those footsteps on the wooden floor of thier living room. John smiles as the song winds to a close, and she's out of breath from her whirlwind dancing.
The melody of life is a hard tune to play, but they seem to manage just fine.
Somehow, this one was inspired by Naruto episode 117. Maybe it was the number, I'm not to sure. (giggles)
