Series: The One True Streamman - An ongoing AU exploring a post-HLVRAI1 world where Gordon exports the Science Team. Gordon is a man with a computer, a thriving friend group, and unimaginable existential questions. How does one maintain a healthy friendship when you’re on a different plane of reality than your AI friends? Listed here by publication date rather than chronological order, each of these stories can be read as stand-alone fics or as part of a greater narrative. Related posts on this blog are tagged #gordon streamman .
Square and Sphere - With his new webcam at ready, Gordon is ready to show the science team the real him for the first time. He expects a lot of things-- high emotions, jokes about his appearance, all the works. He doesn't expect fear.
Good Fun with Good Buddies (and Gordon) - Darnold has found himself forging close friendships with the ragtag crew that call themselves the "Science Team", and it's only partially because he's stuck in Gordon's computer with them. They're his friends!...Except Gordon.
Open File > Run as Administrator - Dr. Coomer is awake and aware for the first time since he left Gordon his final message, and nothing is there. And he's going to be okay.
Outside Looking In - Gordon’s long-time friend and twitch producer becomes concerned when the streamer dives head-first into the impossible task of taking the Science Team out of the game.
Bubby and Coomer Present WEDDING 2: The Sequel - No, not the sequel to an existing story-- that title is what's going on the invitations to the Boomers' wedding vow reaffirmation ceremony! Gordon helps plan a Twitch wedding for the mad scientists who live in his computer, as one normally does.
Don't Spell Memory Without Me - There are two Gordon Freemans. One of them isn't Gordon Freeman, and the other one doesn't exist. Or never existed. It really depends on how you feel about philosophy. Regardless, Gordon has some questions for his friends about the man who wore his character model in their pre-ResCas memories.
Streamer Unconsciousness - If your stressed, exhausted friend falls asleep on your couch during group movie night, the nice thing to do is get him to bed. However, that's a little hard when your friend's body is on another plane of being, and your world is on his computer. Gordon falls asleep in VR.
Run For Your Life - In progress. When unforeseen consequences threaten the Science Team’s peaceful postgame life, Gordon and his AI friends must face the past and go back to where it all began. Armed with nothing to lose and one hell of a plan, they’ve got no qualms with tearing the game apart from the inside out– on purpose this time.
Haptic Feedback -Ficlet, written in reply to an ask. Gordon tests out a haptic VR bodysuit and is able to physically feel his AI Friends' touch for the first time.
Start Again - Bubby wasn't sure where he'd planned to go after Tommy's birthday party, but it wasn't here. Where was here, anyway? How did he get here? Why didn't he remember leaving the party. What's Coomer happy-crying about?...And why isn't Gordon there?
Our Other Anniversary - A brief nighttime conversation between an old married couple. Half a dozen years ago, neither person existed. Sixth anniversary ficlet, immediate prequel to HL2VRAI.
Other HLVRAI Stories-
Bottlecap - follow-up to kyanitedragon’s Camouflage. Gordon takes issue with Tommy’s additional party guest. Tommy won’t let anything happen to his headcrab friend. Benrey’s just happily falling asleep with an entire pizza in his mouth.
Etymology Unknown - Black Mesa's perfect scientist discovers that a person can choose their own name. Why the hell would he keep one that a bunch of inferior researchers came up with?
No-! Nonononononononono-! We FIXED this bug! We FIXED IT! NO!
[There’s a loud banging from the other side of the door.]
>> OPEN UP THIS DOOR! OPEN UP! I WAS AN IDIOT FOR LETTING YOU GO ON AHEAD! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THERE? WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THEM?!?!
[Barni tries and fails to squirm away from his captors while a couple of bodies on Odin’s side fall to the floor in his struggle.]
>> DON’T YOU DARE HURT HIM! HE HASN’T DONE ANYTHING WRONG! LEAVE HIM ALONE!
[Barni’s vision goes dark before he can see Odin lunge forward. The last thing he hears is the sound of a knife slashing against skin and the sound of gunfire…]

"Uh? Oh! Yeah, thank you! I'm--"

About to see the Digital Circus finale in theaters!! I know jack shit about the leaks and I'm walking into it the way I walked into the pilot: with the expectation that it's a piece of animation made by people who are deeply passionate about animation as an art form.
why the fuck did I put this on the half life blog. That wasn't supposed to happen.
Anyway I thought the explicit post credits sex scene between Zooble and Isaac Kleiner was a really bold move on Gooseworx's part, and I really respect her as an artist for including that
