Science may kill you but you can't kill science!

A Portal / Half-Life-centric blog. I'm a silly old fan returning to the world of Aperture and Black Mesa and loving it all over again. Teaching myself to draw just to make Cave Johnson memes.Hag-of-Ages on Ao3 24 | they/them

Its Such A Silly Issue To Have But I Want To Write A Stand-alone Fic In Which Caroline Has To Deal With

It’s such a silly issue to have but I want to write a stand-alone fic in which Caroline has to deal with Cave Johnson’s wife and young children after his death, with the implication that Cave was a serially remarried playboy (which might align with some people’s headcanons). But it’s been a struggle to write because in my favorite headcanons Cave is 100% asexual/aromatic with no interest in any sort of relationship and is just living life for the science and the hijinks.

I don’t know what else to do with my need to write “Caroline as tired and aging woman visiting her boss/best friend’s widow who had confusing feelings (mostly anger) for now-dead Cave” vibes. But they are there.

The old 2020 drawing. Drawing of Chell and the protagonists of Portal Stories Mel and Aperture Tag sitting together talking about their cores.
Drawing of Chell and the protagonists of Portal Stories Mel and Aperture Tag sitting together talking about their cores. Chell is thinking about Wheatley in space, looking content. Mel is happily talking about Virgil. The Aperture Tag protagonist is angrily ranting about Nigel.

The gals are still talking about their robot pals!

2020 vs 2024

This redraw was really fun! ☺️💙🧡

man. if glados thought chell was 100% motivated by wanting to be stubborn and contrary (instead of, like, survival)

breaking things and escaping just because she told her not to

of course, when told "don't come back," why would she expect chell to do what she's told?

if she's not even thinking of freedom/survival as a motivator, why would chell go? if she expects chell to stick to her primary motivation, causing problems on purpose, of course telling her to leave would make her say fuck you I'm staying

what a letdown, when chell finally decides to obey the one time glados doesn't want her to
