   Summary

   A bunch of Master Chief John-117/Reader snippets. Reader is mostly written as an AFAB cis female. Come for the soft!John fluff, stay for the overwhelmingly tooth-rotting soft!John and Reader navigating personal relationships fluff.

   Inspired by ageless-aislynn's 15 Minutes. Go check it out!
