Ok, I just finished the level Pillar Of Autumn. Again. During the ending video, when Cortana asks Master Chief if he's sure he wouldn't rather take a seat, and MC says "We'll be fine", I heard Cortana say:

"If I still had fingers, they'd be crossed right now."

Any comments?

PS: If I happened to hear wrong, then I will feel like an idiot for making this thread. Do not rub it in to hard if I did.

While inside the Master Chief's helmet, Cortana holds no shape. This is because the Master Chief's suit is not outfitted with a hologram projector, which ship-borne AI's use to be seen. This has no effect on her computational abilities, however. The holographic projection is merely for aesthetics.

Will test for snacks!

KOTOR. JOIN.

wait, i think hes on to something.... maybe this is a reference to the whole Dr. Halsey thing... Cortana WAS made from a flash-cloned brain, and the books say it was Halsey's. So this could be a clue to her behavior in H3... who knows? maybe she goes all motherly on the chief. If he ever gets around to recovering her...

yes, she atually says that. I do not think it's a reference to Halo 3, however. Just like how just before that moment, the ramp closes before he punches the button.

Quick as a razor, sharp as a bullet.

Yes! Thank you! I remembered hearing that a while back, something about Cortana previously having a physical body and i couldnt remember from where! But now you have saved me from a lifetime of frustration!
