    Summary

    “An invasive species is a non-native species that spreads from the point of introduction and alters its new environment. Although its impact can be beneficial, the term as most often used applies to introduced species that affect the invaded bioregions adversely.” (from Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia)

    Summary

    Seconds rewound, then minutes, painful hours turning into milliseconds with the ease of which Tommy manipulated them, until finally, everything went gold, and Mr. Freeman’s pain was finally gone.

    Maybe it was the coward’s way out — but this coward was determined to live, and grant his friend that same opportunity.

    Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?

    No, you know it must be never-ending - comprehend if you can,

    But when you try to pretend to understand,

    You resemble a fool, although you're only a man.

     
    So give it up and smile!

     

    There's a lot I could say to hype it up, but, honestly? This fic doesn't need it. Mind the warnings, because it can get gruesome at points, but it'll be worth the ride. I think this is as close to straight-up horror as I've seen any HLVRAI fic get, and trust me, it works well.

    "What do you mean you're bugging out?”

    “Like I’m not even supposed to get hurt, have godmode on, indestructible you know.”

    Gordon does in fact not know but nods anyway.

    “And now suddenly everything hurts and it sucks.”

     

    Benrey is back and doesn't have his powers anymore, angst and shenanigans ensues.

    So many Xen critters... I love them

    There's a lot more I could say ofc but that's the simplest and if I don't leave there I will not shut up

    ... Really, though, this makes me want to get into Half-Life lore even more than I did before. VRAI Gordon's POV is pretty close to where I'm at, in terms of knowledge re: original canon, so this is a great introduction!

    I've already ranted about how much I love this one on Discord a few times now, so I don't have much more to say, but I can boil it down: Podlings deserve more recognition. Jarra-Jen who? Never heard of her. Hup is the up-and-coming legendary hero we need, but not the one we deserve. I hope he gets out of there okay.
