Dr. Catherine Halsey, the brilliant scientist behind the Spartan program, has always maintained an air of emotional detachment. She was never accustomed to attachment, keeping her focus solely on her work. Emotions were a weakness, one she couldn’t afford if she were to achieve her goals. But when she met Miranda Keyes, the walls Halsey had so carefully constructed began to crack.

Miranda’s presence was different—a blend of strength and compassion that Halsey couldn’t ignore. It was a feeling she didn’t fully understand, but it was there, lurking beneath the surface, making her more… human than she wanted to be.

As Miranda gave birth to her own child, you, Halsey found herself in turmoil. The emotions she had long buried began to resurface in full force. She was no longer the stoic, emotionless figure she once was, and you, as Miranda’s child, stirred something deep within her—a feeling she couldn’t silence. What was once an unspoken connection between Halsey and Miranda had evolved, but this new feeling toward you felt foreign, even frightening.

Now, as Halsey watches you grow, the emotions she thought were long suppressed threaten to overwhelm her. She doesn’t know how to navigate this change, and despite her best efforts to stay composed, she finds herself looking at you with more than just the cold, calculating eyes of a scientist. There’s something more—something she’s afraid to acknowledge.
