Description A common motif in my work, especially with the concept of alternate universes is that things will be 'similar, yet different'. Be prepared to see a person who you think may be you, but you may share absolutely nothing in common. Be ready for a little shock as you stare at a world that you may think was yours but is not.

You might have never been born here. Perhaps you went into another line of work. Perhaps you were a really nice guy in your world, yet a jerk in another. Perhaps history took a turn none of us could have foreseen. We're all playing the same game of life, but the rules might be different.

This scene is in Sally's Journal when a UNSC team led by 1MEF Major Oscar Beller crosses dimensions into the Prime Universe to answer a distress call. The Primes need the Humans and the Neos, but why? Wouldn't it make sense for them to go after the problem themselves? Why would they want people who fight with tactics they not only disagree with, but resent? Why would the Primes think that a group of Marines can succeed where the Freedom Fighters couldn't?

You'll have to excuse me - not much experience drawing on-model characters. The stylistic differences are very much intentional, and the physical difference between Primes and the UNSC (Mobius included) is very much acknowledged.
