I'm losing my mind thinking about Jon terrified out of his mind in the tunnels where his predecessor got fucking murdered, being chased by a fucking monster that he accidentally unleashed, with only a tape recorder and a fucking metal pipe. My bro is in need of buckets of therapy

I might be cooking up something…
Tumblr media
@ultramarinaa’s Champion lives rent free in my head. I might actually have a problem…
Anyways, look at this sweet boy (and please ignore the mess on my desk, thanks). Ain’t he pretty? I think he is. Would you believe me if I told you the hardest part is making his glasses?
This is what three hours of work, some air drying clay, and an awful lot of tiredness looks like: a cat. It is currently 1:59 am. I am a mess, but I always am.
Fun fact I planned on making him be in another position but I wholeheartedly forgot. It’s not even a joke.
OH! One more thing before I go, @thebreadmantm’s Champion sculpture fully made my brain decide to do this. Your creation is absolutely beautiful and so is your art. Looking at it makes me immeasurably happy. Go check out her blog! -Mori

when I saw spoilers for tmagp 8 they were all along the lines of "Gerry and Gertrude are happy, and also there's some sUbTLe hIntS that all is not as it seems 🤔"
"not as it seems" my ASS it took about 15 seconds for me to decide gerry'd been lobotomized in this universe. it's like 5am and these people presumably showed up at your door with no explanation, and you asked NO questions before inviting them in!? wdym you "barely remember" what happened to you at the institute? how young could he even have been if the institute incident happened about 20 years ago, old enough to remember way more than that surely? the glitch/scratch when gertrude said she didn't think he could help them? is that indicative of someone using entity related powers like it was in tma or does it just mean she's lying? this is so funny to me it wasn't even subtle at all everyone just decided it was more fun to live in denial ig. I mean yeah, for sure. damn.

funny stuff, i don't care about anyone in tma but about the statements mostly. the rest just happens i guess, mostly. when the stories became too character focused i skimmed thru, hoping there were more statements in the future. hopefully about the buried. i love the buried. so when jon was out the coffin after that funny visit to meatman i just lost interest... i didnt care enough about martin and his lonely drama. and THEN part 5 became a goddamn sitcom, worse with martins snippy comments (im sure there was a laugh track there). basira? alice? good for them to be there i guess. the ending? not as good as the sitcom cheekiness of martin and annabelle.
tma best part were the statements themselves, i just didnt enjoy enough the character drama, felt it was dry. too dry.

MAG 91 BABEYYYYY
TEAAAA
Omg why does mike crew sound kinda hot tho
I know he's probably just refusing tea cause he doesn't trust Mike crew but I like to think it's also cause it's not made by Martin lol
He's stressed cause the last time he fucking talked to an avatar he got his hand burned off and he's not expecting Mike to be so...normal
Bro didn't think he'd get this far he didn't prepare his questions dumbass
Oh my god the AIR fuck
And I was trying to be polite OH HE'S SO COOL ACTUALLY
Why do I kind of love seeing Jon being battered around like this
Hmm I would've thought the vast was the idea of not knowing, not knowing exactly how deep something will go, not knowing your place in the world
You need to learn some respect???? Oh my god
"Fed that which feeds me" that's such a good way of putting it
"I'm not usually the sort for speeches" god he seems so human oh my god the guy just wants be left alone while throwing people off skyscrapers
BRO STILL DOESNT LISTEN. LEAVE.
I didn't get the mike crew stans before but now I absolutely do I would let that man throw me off a skyscraper
DAISYYYYYY AHHHHHHHHHHHH
My favourite corrupt detective 😘
The way she goes from "he" to "it"
Oh my god did she shoot him???
THE CIGARETTES...THE LIGHTERRRRR
The way he's more stressed about the fact that the tape recorder appeared than literally daisy tonner
THE CHOKING NOISES
BASIRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
God they're such lesbians
The way daisy is trying to convince basira that she only kills monsters, she's still sort of justified, maybe even good
Oh my god daisy hates being manipulated, she's always in control and someone has reached into her mind to make her do something and she hates it
She's also so smart she'd put it together way before everyone else did and she decided to do something about it, maybe in like a really bad way but at least shes trying
Call me number one daisy tonner apologist with these comments lol
"for god's sake look at him!" That's so funny girl was really like you think Jonathan Sims resident whimpering wet cat of man could murder two people???????
Oh my god they're literally using him as a fucking lie detector
AND JON GOES ALONG
I guess it's cause he also really wants to prove his innocence and find out if it really was Elias
Bro has no survival instincts he just does not give a shit
GRAB A SPADE she's so nonchalant about it
NOOOO MIKE
NO I GET TO KNOW HIM AND NOW HE'S DEAD
NOOOOOOOO
God fucking cliffhanger man

The thing is, based on canon it sounds like it can be dialed down? Burning desire is just a few episodes after Recluse, where agnes also kisses someone and the pain doesn't even activate until later, and doesn't leave any scarring.
( Arguably this could be because her powers weren't as developed or because a peck on the cheek doesn't involve nearly as much skin contact, but i like to think the difference was a bit more situational.)
The desolation is fueled by emotional attachment (and destroying the things people care about.) With the kid in Recluse -- Ronald Sinclair -- she evidently cared about him enough to not want him to get spidered, and he seemed not to mind her existence, but that was about it. The incident was a controlled burn, to foil the web's plans. Jack, on the other hand, was perhaps the first person to really love her as a person, with none of the cult devotion, just bizarrely passionate about her. And suddenly he asks her if he can kiss her when she knows she's about to die and they'll never see each other again and he doesn't even know What She Is and... of course the flames are going to come rushing in all at once.
TLDR: Kissing agnes probably could be spicy meal levels of painful in canon, but only if you're both a bit emotionally detached about it.
AU where Agnes’s touch-me-and-die effect is less intense, or at least can be dialled down a bit. It comes on slower.
Burning Desire ends happily and now Jack has to keep burn cream on hand for date nights. Kissing Agnes is a bit like trying to eat a delicious yet stupendously over-spiced meal
*smooch* *smooch* *smooch* AAAAAA *smooch* *smooch* AAAAAA
Jack, visibly crying, his lips bleeding and blistered: I’m fine it’s all worth it

Statement of : Gordon Martinez Freeman, 30 year old MIT graduate,Regarding a peculiar video game he’d found.
Recorded direct from subject, May 16, 200-
Statement begins.
Pt 1 > here
ABOUT 👇
Hello! I am the author of this AU, you can find my main at @inkzectz , for more meta questions about this AU, or for general comments about it, please go there.
What is the AU about?
LA : AI is a crossover AU of sorts, in the simplest way put, it’s TMA but with HLVRAI characters, TMA stuff happens but altered to fit the general HLVRAI narrative, and with my own changes, headcanons, etc. added
I will be updating/editing this post as I progress.
Will it have spoilers?
Disclaimer!!
The AU will have a lot of the original themes of hlvrai and more so TMA, more so, horror themes, this will include gore, body horror, worms, decomposition, cult themes, psychological horror, arachnophobia,flashing imagery, etc.
(Will update as I go on)
I also feel it is important to mention this is the first time I have ever made a ask blog/ web comic/ published a story online, I will make mistakes, please bare with me as I am trying to figure things out.
English is not my first language, I do my best to grammar check and write well, but at the end of the day I will also be making mistakes.
Please be patient with me.
This au is a passion project of mine that I am doing on my free time because I want to, it is important to remember as a reader, I do not owe you anything.
It is best if you’ve seen it but as of writing it right now (early ep 4) there aren’t any spoilers. Once I am a little further ahead then you may want to listen to it.
Yes, not a lot, but vague/mild spoilers about how the world works, plot points, and character.
Again the spoilers will be vague and mild at worst, as it progresses I would recommend listening to tma, but it’s sort of like how while half life knowledge is helpful in hlvrai it isn’t exactly necessary to enjoy hlvrai bc it’s different enough from it to not really matter (?) I hope that makes sense.
Asks rules
- No telling [ player ] exactly what happens ex : “omg [ player ] when you weren’t looking [ npc ] said this very important thing that is supposed to be kept secret for lore reasons”
- Please avoid asks like “tell this character they’re pretty” while I appreciate the compliment, I am trying to write a story and want to keep things as on topic as possible. Instead tell me on my main if you like the art, I’ll probably reply with a doodle or something, just not on here.
- Less so of a rule but more so of a general statement, I will be avoiding asks that either are too close to what happens or if answering would mean progressing the story too quickly, there’s a lot I want to happen and I want time to do it all.
- Another one that’s less of a rule and more of a general thing, if I don’t like what you said I won’t be answering.
- I also sometimes just don’t know how to answer some things.
- Please be respectful of the ships I choose to include and don't force your own, ship wars and such will not be tolerated.
- Please be respectful of others and do not spoil anything, not everyone has listened to TMA and knows it's themes.
I will not be answering everything, I cannot always get to every message so please be respectful of that.
Select character
Character abouts! [ Will be updating as I continue to work on the story ]
[ select ] > Mr. Freeman
Tumblr media
> Gordon Martinez ‘Martini’ Freeman
30 y.o . 6’0 . 230lb . Romani / Puertorican . male [ he/him ] . bisexual
[ PLAYER ]
> Lives in Seattle, MIT graduate, left Black Mesa, works as a librarian IRL but also makes money via streaming video games occasionally, in real time it is 2018.
> Believes in the paranormal out of fear but tries to rationalize out of denial, he will never admit something is supernatural and will jump through hoops to rationalize even if deep down he does believe.
> Has a son named Joshua Medrano Freeman, who is 6 years old, Gordon and his old partner met in college but split up before Joshua was born, they remain civil but are nothing more to each other than Joshua’s other parent.
> Gordon rents an apartment with 3 rooms, his own room, Joshua’s room, and a third that used to be a guest room but he has so little visitors he’s just chosen to revamp it into a gaming room.
> Gordon works primarily in a library for now as he’s looking for a better job.
> Gordon often wears hoodies, sweaters, t-shirts, crew necks, and any general outfit one would wear at home, long curly hair that is beginning to grey due to stress, unkempt goatee, and almost always wears green tinted glasses [ he doesn’t need glasses he just thinks they’re cool ]
> His hair is usually pulled back in a ponytail but can also be found in a bun or just down.
< [ select ] > Mr. Coolatta
Tumblr media
> Thomas ‘Tommy’ Coolatta, primary researcher, and technical head of the institute.
39 y.o . 6’7 . 190lb . Chinese/filipino . Male [ he/him ] . ???
[ NPC ]
> His father owns the Lambda institute and he grew up in it, he officially started working in the archives when he was 24, and of all the employees in the entire institute he has worked there the longest.
> No one knows who his father really is, Tommy being the only one who’s ever actually seen / spoken to him, his father is the real head of the institute but gives most his orders through Tommy, so Tommy is also technically the head as well.
> Not much is actually known about him, besides his father he doesn’t appear to have any other family, nor does he ever speak of his personal life much.
> Tommy primarily works as an archival assistant, specifically in research, he is the one who will verify details regarding statements or do further investigations into aspects of the statements.
> Tommy is quite the colorful character, often wearing colorful clothing and accessories, he seems to think doing so brings some cheer into an otherwise boring environment, he often wears patterned polo shirts, cheap company bracelets, pins, lanyards, pant chains, but is never without his signature multicolor propeller hat.
