Real quick let me explain the decimal chapters, they are not at all progression to the story, more of ways to help explain
Due to a review (thank you for that) saying along the lines of it being unlikely or believable
So let me explain the part of my AU regarding Hannah (the UNSC's experiment infestor)
The flood only need contact with the mind and spinal cord to infest a creature, they most commonly do this be partial decapitation and infesting the host's body
The protag being a spartan has crucial exponents that connect to his brain and spinal cord underneath his armor, Hannah was made smart enough to get underneath the armor and connect to those parts
The flood mutate the body and increase muscle growth which in my AU it is done via enzyme, I'm not sure canonically how but that is why I'm saying my AU
Hannah can export and import said enzyme to increase and decrease protag's muscle mass, which in core allows to his Flood form, he cannot be in flood form for too long or else the flood's hive mind will enter his
I used a piece of RvB lore which is how the AIs are implemented via chips into the spartan's mind
(Spoiler)
He was supposed to get a 5th AI but said AI was corrupted during his surgery to have the chip implemented, so he had a vacant neural chip which was how Hannah not only accessed his mind but was also able to communicate with his AIs
(Spoiler end)
I also have a minor "announcement" being an idea proposition
I already have quite a few made on sheets but I want your opinion, Since i'll use them anyway, should I incorporate it into this story or should I make a new story
By "them" or "it" I am referring to the idea of infested Mgalekgolo
Hopefully that clears things up, I'm almost done with chapter 2 which I hope is a lot better
