Roses vs Violets: Difference between revisions

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

(→‎Trivia: Saying that the characters are from Red vs Blue isn't necessary/a little update)
(Added quick descriptions of each Easter egg released so far. I'm guessing they'll be more when more episodes are released. Also, I'm not sure if we should add how to find/activate these said EE's when we have the videos available under sources.)
