Summary
“Where’d you learn how to do that?” Gordon signed, pointing at her project. Alyx glanced down at the more-or-less orderly piles arrayed around her and he considered that she may have been working on more than one thing. “Robotics.” He spelled out, and she lit up.

Summary
With the Knight weakened after the events in the church, Susie is left with far too much time on her hands, which means addressing the other issues plaguing her life. Like her strange relationship with the most amazing girl in class, the eerie troubles plaguing her best friend, and whatever the hell is going on between her glasses and the old TV that she's becoming dangerously fond of. In the end, it might all be far more interconnected than she expected.

Summary
Everything considered, it’s hard not to wonder if he even has any right to look at Edgeworth the way he can’t help doing recently.
And he wonders – not for the first time – if his face is going to eventually split apart and fracture with all the strained smiles he’s been flashing, luminous and brilliant, every minute of every day.
Phoenix tries his best and smiles, and smiles, and smiles so vibrantly through it all that it hurts.Bookmarked by darkmagicians

Summary
The generation that came of age during the occupation of Earth by the Combine, colloquially known as ‘The Last Generation’, was a unique assembly of soldiers, survivors, and fighters. Their childhood nursery rhymes sang the legend of their liberator Gordon Freeman; their early education was in survival instead of literacy. To a human who had not spent their childhood in warfare, they were borderline incomprehensible.
To Gordon Freeman, their college professor, they were a headache.
In which Gordon Freeman teaches community college, Alyx Vance has her great coming of age story, and Barney Calhoun pines like extinct vegetation. And in which everybody grows older, but nobody grows up.
