Ok so. Cave still sold shower curtains to the military and has a bunch of money from it, and Caroline is a mechanical engineer who no one thought much of because a) woman and b) she has a learning disorder but Cave was like "hell yeah queen let's fund you" (that's why she can't fire him)
Aperture started out with robots here, and its main purpose was to develop companions for humans. The companion cube is actually just a prototype for the cores they keep around because people love them, the cores themselves were actually made to be companions, not to regulate Chell. There is still human testing, but it's because Caroline wanted to start getting into cybernetic limbs and needed data on how the human body functions and also how the human brain functions. They don't really go bankrupt, but they do end up going into debt because someone ordered 70 million dollars of moon rocks.
They of course still have the portal gun, and now the conversion gel (there is no repulsion or propulsion gel because those just. Never happened) but yeah. Caroline tries to keep people away from the moon dust after she gets sick (around this time is when she gets Cave put into "Wheatley", he wasn't actually created to be an idiot in this au he just was sorta stupid then Cave made him. More stupid.) and dies. She had been developing Chell, and that was her pride and joy.
Oooooooo!!! I like that!!!! Of course Caroline is girlbossing and Cave has to mess everything up. Typical, but it is also so interesting!! I like the Companion Cube-Cores thing a lot

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

"average cat owner spends 3 years in prison" factoid actualy just statistical error. average owner spends 0 years in prison. Miette's mother, who kicked her body like the football and went to jail for One Thousand Years is an outlier adn should not have been counted
