this has been said much more succinctly but im gonna say it again so i can pin this post on my blog:
alyx and gordon are a heavily implied relationship in the game. if you are looking at a piece of unestablished background lore (did they meet pre-rescas) and your decision is to make a headcanon that makes it weird instead of assuming the writers arenât creeps:
thatâs your right, but thatâs also a you problem.
and if you truly believe this ship is as problematic as you say, then I honestly think that you should have nothing good to say about haIf life as a whole, that such a thing would go beyond the pale of anyoneâs ability to âjust ignore the bad partsâ as I have seen people claim, and I donât understand why youâre positively engaging with this media at all.
