Really, really sorry for the delay on my post guys, but things sort of caught up with me.  I'll try and get into a regular posting schedule again soon, but every time I tried to work up the energy to write something good someone else had responded with some sort of interaction with Reaper!  Things just piled up.  If I'm holding things back, just assume that Reaper offered some noncommittal grunts or nods and went about checking his gun and armor, and the damage done by the Xenos.
