    Summary

    Stepping over the freshly-slain guardian, The Doom Slayer placed his palm on the domed interface so VEGA could access the controls. Several portals opened at once around the edge of the platform. "There," said the helpful AI. "The third from the left. Earth, 2150. It's not too late."
    ***
    The little white dog darted past her, dodging her outstretched hand. "Charlie, no!" she called, but it was too late. He was out there. Out there with demons who would love nothing more than to rip apart a helpless animal. She grabbed a crowbar and shouldered her friend aside. "I'm going after him. Don't follow me."

    Summary

    basically just a half life AU where the resonance cascade goes like...terribly wrong, causing a whole new timeline to happen — where the cast works in an office building and not a lab. Also black mesa never existed in this..

    no relationships yet, but I'm willing to incorporate them if I get the motivation to even finish this

    um. I'm not the best at writing, please don't stone me to death 💔

    Summary

    If there are authors or stories out there that you'd rather not ever see in your search results again, you can create a site skin to remove them from your browsing experience.

    This was first explained in an AO3 News Post, but I'm going to go into more detail so that anyone with an account can do it, with no need to do any coding at all. Just copy/paste.

    Updated to include how to block a series! (and a link to how to block tags)

    Summary

    The Combine's chokehold on humanity may have loosened, but their grip left deep scars on the Earth. In the wake of ecological devastation, Alyx, Barney and Gordon find themselves chasing a last ditch hope through the wastelands, desperate to breathe life back into a dead sea. Between the Combine, a contract and the fundamental truth of ACAB, they'll have to overcome more than ghosts if they want a piece of the future. The highway's long, the stakes are high, and it's the end of the end of the world.

    Summary

    Gordon did not speak after the Resonance Cascade. He spoke not one word about the horrors he had seen, not until he found himself unable to outrun his grief.

    OR
    A bit of a character study into Gordon's muteness as a trauma response.
