[ID: Artwork featuring characters from Dead End: Paranormal Park. The first drawing is digital, with Norma Khan and Barney Guttman drawn from the bust up and Courtney, Pugsley and Gourd drawn fullbody. Barney is holding Pugsley while trying to toss off Courtney, who is perched on his shoulder and grinning. Norma is shielding her head with a book, looking up in wonder at a green specter eminating from Pugsley's eyes, as Gourd also balances on the book. The 2nd image is traditionally drawn, featuring a fullbody of Courtney as she poses and reveals a toothy smile. Below her is Zagan, drawn from the bust up as she poses dramatically with her left arm outstretched. End ID]

Some recent Dead End art I made, as a homage to one of my favorite shows of all time :]

Hey i got confused making an origami bat and it turned out inside out (white) so i had to make another what should i do with them?

Evena - black bat (since she’s a vampire (i know, crazy connection))

Ellga - white bat (like ‘black sheep’ but bats)

Chip - swan (normally docile but will get aggressive when protecting family)

Barney - dove (cleric??)

Mathilde - eagle (they are literally a bird of prey)

GIVE ME MORE OF YOUR FREEHOUN THOUGHTS

HI SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG I WAS BUSYYY

Ok so I told you most of my thoughts already lol

I was recently thinking about maybe how they first met. I think them meeting because Gordon got lost in the vents trying to help Kleiner with getting into his office would be really funny. Gordon wanted to be helpful and Kleiner mentioned how some guard named Barney would go in the vents and help so he tries and gets lost. Barney goes in the vents after and Gordon accidentally scares him and they get to Kleiners lab together. Then after this encounter they slowly become friends and the next time Kleiner loses his keys Gordon is able to get them before Barney since Barney showed him the way, and their races in the vents become a thing they do.

I still can’t decide if I prefer that they dated pre res-cas or not cause the office romance is sooo cute BUT the idea that they both had what they thought was an unrequited crush and neither being able to get over it. Barney because everyone kept insisting Gordon was coming back, hard to get over someone when everyone’s talking about them and you’re wondering what could’ve been. And Gordon because for him it’s been like 2 weeks (idk the freaking timeline) so he’s still got it bad. The idea that they both confessed their feelings and then like, didn’t start dating or didn’t talk about it properly is also just mmmm drama. Still adore all the pre res-cas stuff people come up with tho so freaking cute.

I also love the idea of Barney only knowing a tiny bit of sign language when he first meets Gordon, then taking time to learn it properly so they can talk easier. Barney still knows ASL after the combine and everything cause being able to communicate without talking is very helpful for a rebellion that doesn’t wanna be discovered. Since most of the rebellion leaders worked with Gordon they all knew at least some sign language, but Barney was the one who was the best and maybe got fluent in it? I’d imagine they’re all pretty fluent/good with it by hl2

OH I didn’t say much about post-canon ideas cause I don’t have many but basically Gordon and Barney are just fun uncles to Alyx and they hang out often. Alyx definitely overdramatically like gags or goes “ewww” when they kiss or whatever as a joke lmao but they know she’s just messing with them.

I really love Gordon being like an older brother to Alyx btw they’re friendship is sooo well done in hl2 specifically the episodes.
