Nipple academy
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
- "All this weapon carryin' and battle dodgin' has got me missin' home. When all we worried about was keepin' good marks at the nipple academy. Things was easier when we were all shootin' humans."
- — Bingflip during a transmission to Pubflem.[1]
Nipple academy is a type of Unggoy educational institution.[1] It presumably draws its namesake from the Unggoy's food nipple feeding tubes.
Production notes
Nipple academies were first mentioned in Halo 3; with the IWHBYD skull enabled, after an Unggoy witnesses the death of an ally, it may trigger a dialogue in which the Unggoy identifies his dead companion as Flipyap, then states they "went to nipple academy together".[2][3] Since IWHBYD-enabled dialogue are intended as jokes, the canonicity of a "nipple academy" has been dubious. However, with the release of Halo Infinite campaign, the existence of nipple academies was confirmed via an audio log, which was later reinforced by the Armory Infinitum entry on the Unbound Plasma Pistol.[4]
