[villafordefeatedvillains]

Oh and speaking of HLVRV redesigns. C my beloved! And some weird lanky spider-thing that vaguely resembles the Puppet from FNAF I Guess.

[crow-of-ohio]

Hehe gvrv. Love that silly ripoff Phantom of the Opera<3

[tvntheatre]

To both HLVRV fans and Fallen London fans, I am so, so sorry for what I've drawn completely unrelated correlations to. (I'm lying I regret nothing.)

[bbeeohazardd]

“You, hate, me…And yet, you, come to…me with a, deal? Is that…correct?”

IRATE stood, staring up at the grinning entity with his hands in his pockets, expression stern. He wasn’t an idiot, he knew this was risky, and he’d be lying if he said he wasn’t terrified.

He couldn’t let this continue. Gordon didn’t deserve that, Tommy and Benrey didn’t deserve that. None of them deserved this, and he’d do anything to fix it.

“Yeah.” His fists were tightly clenched in his pockets. “…I want to take his place.”

The widening grin on the entity’s face was sickening.

“Oh? So that is, what, this is…about?”

“You want your bosses t’ leave you alone, I want this t’ be resolved. Non-conflictin’ interests 'r whatever.” He shifted his weight from leg to leg as he stood.

“And, how would…I know that, this, is not a…trap?”

He rolled his eye, “Casse-toi, ‘f I was doin’ that I wouldn’t ‘ve come alone. Do we have a deal, ‘r not?” he kept his expression stern and guarded. He was on a mission, and he wasn’t going to back down.

The entity seemed to consider for a bit before a smirk crossed his face. “A deal, it is…then.”

Somewhere in the HLVRV multiverse there's an In Your Dreams timeline where the double-cross failed AND Doc was lost to his nightmare. Sleepless is horrified to find that he has unwillingly and yet undeniably become the villain. G-man wins. Friends old and new look on in terror BUT SLEEPLESS CAN'T TELL THEM THE TRUTH. He can't say it was only meant to be a ruse, or he'll lose what little ze has left. There's one upside: Doc is safe with Sleepless. There are too many downsides: Doc is consumed by her work and wants nothing to do with Sleepless. Ze risked it all to make things right and so terribly LOST. THAT. GAMBLE. Lost everything. His rivals are enemies, their love is just out of reach, and zeyre stuck as the ally of the man at fault for it all.

[year2000electronics]

not to send the billionth ask about hlvrv but are doc and g-man intentionally narrative foils. man who would do literally anything for his family VS man who believes having a family makes you weak. like. they ARE narrative foils but was it on purpose or a happy accident. also every day i thank you for making sleepless a forzen when i feel like anyone else would've made him a benrey for Frenrey. idk it adds a little pizazz that he's the singular forzen in hlvrv and not a benrey even if him being a benrey would probably change nothing plot-wise

YESSSS and i love it. the question of "was it intentional" is a little here and there because the more i look back at hlvrv the more i forget what i was thinking of in the moment and the more i only have my notes to go off. where episode 1 was kinda me going "UHHHHHHH" and panicking looking at the building blocks that ive laid out desperately trying to smash them together. doc definitely wasnt crafted with the idea that he would have this traitor narrative in mind, and certainly he wasnt created hand in hand with gvrv. his creation was me in the notes app going "uh i need two more gordons. what would be cool. A MAD SCIENTIST MAYBE?" and things kinda fell into place from there.

i think as the live askblog stuff went on i definitely did find my footing with that though, especially as i was going in with the looming shadow of like. onceler-au-ification behind me. i wanted the science teams to play a part in them for sure. and for that connection, that bond, to play a part, and i guess as the story went on doc and freemans fates got more and more intertwined, as doc has this sort of selfish love of her family where she will stop at NOTHING to save them, and the admins whose selfish love of freeman ends up trapping all the other gordons and dangling false hope in front of them, but as the story goes on, as the gordons make these choices to reach out to each other and fight for their happy ending, thats how you see doc and the admins' loves grow into something more deeper and mature. compared to gvrv who chose to love people only as tools

ALSO YEA I LOVE SLEEPLESS. im like 90% sure zer creation was also just me scheming in the notes app like "ooooh theyll NEVER expect this one!" but also i noticed hlvrv at large had a very large forzen-shaped gap so i was like "fuck it". i agree i think making sleepless a benrey would have been tacky

[hlvrv]

And so, every single member of the ask blog (Yes, including Polite Benrey) had a great time on the rest of their vacation, where Leading Light did not try to kill or scam or summon a G-Man on them.

They later went home, and did NOT go their separate ways like a lot of fantasy stories do.

And they stayed friends for many years to come.

Leading Light successfully became a celebrity washout. He got no consequences for stealing Lady Gaga's entire discography. Him and his band are recovering slowly, but surely. They're learning what true love is again. And are happy.

Dr. Hypnos stole many McDonald's toys. He was later banned. She is happy.

Overlord got the Big Mac he was waiting in line for. He is happy.

DOG went on to share a fruitful partnership with the Love Letters, and his McDonald's is now an empire. DOG is happy.

The Y2K gang still isn't allowed on airplanes aside from Spork and Gordon B, and Joshua is taking his first computer science class this fall. They are happy.

The Swap gang finally got to see Swap propose to Neo. Their wedding was on a cruise ship they stole from the Merch team. They are happy.

The Worldstop household experienced an incredible popularity boom in Malcom's streams, thanks to Darnold agreeing to help him with some more insane things. Malcom and Darnold are now the Jerma equivalent of their world. Player is going to university, and is excelling in all his theoretical physics degrees, and are happy.

The Mad Science Team succeeded in taking over the world, and they made healthcare free for everyone, and made the world a kinder place. Doc also gave every Spiders 2 a funny party hat. They are happy.

The Admins kept gallivanting through space and having fun. Freeman aims to collect every game on the Nintendo WiiU. He is still 100 away. All of them are happy.

Capital M went on to win a Nobel War Prize for destroying property. She has upgraded her ship to have a self-serve ice cream bar and a bowling alley. Vil still has a complicated relationship with friendship, but vil is working on it and being kind to themselves while still being a supervillain. Vil also got a life-sized Eggman statue installed. He is happy.

The Merch Science Team is embezzling millions from Disney cruises after trapping them in a fake lawsuit. They ride the open seas and laugh knowing crime isn't chargable on international waters. They are happy.

Phoenix Wright got his badge back after proving Kristoph Gavin was guilty. He is happy.

GVRV is still stuck in Brazil.

This has been HLVRV.

Signing off.

[n-en-hlvrv]

I just re read through HLVRV and... Did G-Bird Spare Player and control him because he is... a bird? Does that Imply that even G-Man cannot get rid of the charm that Player puts on birds?

this is a great interpretation... icl i dont fully remember why i chose to have the g-man control him

in the case that i dont ever end up continuing this blog i would totally be down to post a general summary of what goes down in this au... just not right this second because its almost 2 am and i have school tomorrow

A Helpful Blog Guide

(By yours truly, the Narrator)

If this seems familiar to you, you probably know about HLVRV. In fact, I was inspired by those daring Admins- I have found my own six candidates to help heal.

Consequently, there are no admins here. I am your main operator, narrator, and host. You may call me the Narrator. My signature color is yellow.

These candidates will be listed in order of how much help is needed, from least to most.

Protagonist No. 1

Nickname: Madden

Classification: The Immortal

AU title: HLVR17776 (Half-Life VR but it's 17776)

Name: Gordon M. Freeman

Signature color: Orange

Found predicament: In a strange universe where nobody dies, ages, or gets injured anymore, a job at Black Mesa would be considered a source of entertainment more than anything. Coincidentally, this version of Black Mesa also exists on the Moon, and defeating the big boss has knocked the whole Science Team into deep space. Though Madden here is kind of a control group, too much time alone will drive all of them insane. Definitely not the most pressing one.

Protagonist No. 2

Nickname: Ozzy

Classification: The Artist

AU Title: HLVRSI (Half-Life VR but the Self-Insert is Self Aware)

Name: Oswald Freeman

Signature color: Cyan

Found predicament: In this universe, on the day of the test, Gordon Freeman got sick, leading his niece to commit identity theft and sneak in on his behalf. Objectively, the ending turned out better than it originally was planned to- Ozzy got along quite well with all of the Science Team, even Benrey, but therein lies the rub- they're all trapped on Xen by G-man, who refuses to let them go until Benrey is defeated. Similar situation to Madden. Not the most pressing either.

Protagonist No. 3

Nickname: Game

Classification: The Objective

AU title: HLVROS (Half-Life VR but the Object Shows are Self Aware)

Name: Controlly Freeman

Signature color: Green

Found predicament: Intersecting universe between the Half-Life and Object Show multiverses. Controlly here is a mix of the original Controlly and Gordon; everyone in this universe is similar. Given that Controlly is much worse at anger management that canon Gordon was, and Gold Ingot is more annoying... things don't bode well. Currently stuck in a rut where he doesn't know why Gold Ingot hates him, and is stuck on Xen until he can beat him. Last of the least pressing protagonists.

Protagonist No. 4

Nickname: Hal

Classification: The Rogue

AU title: HLVR-AISwap (Half-Life VR but the AI Role is Swapped)

Name: Gordon Freeman

Signature color: Dark blue (there is no dark blue on Tumblr, sorry.)

Found predicament: This universe is also a sort of swapped one, though it's quite different from the previous Swap's. Here, Gordon is the only self-aware AI, and Benrey, Bubby, Coomer, Darnold, and Tommy are all players. Gordon doesn't believe he's being perceived as real, given that Benrey is trying to deny feelings for him, and Bubby never takes things seriously, so he is currently trapping everyone in the game and trying to force them to see him as real. Less urgent than the last two in the fact that he can't die, but he definitely needs help.

Protagonist No. 5

Nickname: Joshie

Classification: The Searcher

AU title: HLVRTL (Half-Life VR but the Time Loop is Self Aware)

Name: Joshua Freeman

Signature color: Purple

Found predicament: A complicated universe, set in a timeloop state. Gordon has run through Black Mesa a multitude of times, and in the same timeline that Benrey decides to lash back at Gordon and make him watch as Benrey destroys the timeline, Joshua decides to follow his father into the facility, worried at his tired state. Joshua went through most of Black Mesa running and hiding, only meeting the Science Team halfway, and now he faces his father being used as a puppet by a vengeful AI. Definitely going to need help with this one.

Protagonist No. 6

Nickname: Markiman, Freeman

Classification: The Ego

AU title: HLVRYT (Half-Life VR but the YouTubers are Self Aware)

Name: Mark I. Freeman

Signature color: Red

Found predicament: Universe where Markiplier made HLVRAI instead of Wayneradiotv. Interconnected with the Markiplier egos, where Darkiplier finds Freeman and decides he's worth trying to recruit to his cause. Unfortunately, that means he has been trying to do that by any means possible, and Mark is loyal to his team. Darkiplier takes control of G-man and replaces him, removes the Science Team, even Benrey, and makes G-man the final boss. Before he was grabbed, Mark was just about to give in, due to lost hope and being completely unable to beat G-man and Darkiplier on his own. Either do last or first. Urgent.

[loverboy-plush]

what Splatoon species i think the hlvrv cast would be

Loverboy / Gordon B

Inkling

Gordon B is seen as one of the physically stronger ones. He is smart but i feel like his strength kinda out shines his knowledge. (Also due to the fact that the little heart ahoge could be possible on Inklings)

Weapons

He would most likely play heavy weapons and i can see him playing both Dynamo and Hydra.

Swap

Inkling / Inktoling

Swap would probably be a Inkling, but he’s from the swap universe so that would mean the way Inkling and Octolings act would also be swapped. So he would most likely appear as a Inkling, as that would be the most common species found at Black Mesa (due to the scientists most likely being Inklings)

There is also a reason for Swap to be a Inktoling, as he’s an alien and therefore wouldn’t really know the difference between Inkling and Octolings. It would also make sense as they technically can’t exist (due to it being mostly genetically impossible) and it could show that he doesn’t have the best knowledge on Inkling and Octoling (it’s shown that he didn’t have the best knowledge on humans)

Weapons

Undercover Brella for the sole reason that Neo made a joke about it, and Swap just went with it.

Kittle / Malcom

Octoling

Malcom would be an Octoling due to the fact of the knowledge he has on coding and his general knowledge on things. But also shown that he’s kinda a recluse and Octoling were separated from almost all other species and became recluses.

Weapons

I can see him playing Chargers and Stringers. He would most likely play Splatterscope and Inkline Tri-Stringer

Player

Stantized Octoling

Player has issues figuring out who he is, and Sanitized Octolings technically all following the same orders and acting the same. It would help show Player’s issues knowing who he is, especially with Malcom being an Octoling it would help Player struggle a bit with who he is.

Weapons

I can see him playing a weapon from every class really, but I feel like he would play Sloshers and Dualies the most. Playing Tri-Slosher Nouveau and Light Tetra Dualies.

Doc

Fuzzy Octoling

Come on he fell into a thing of goo (even tho it was green and would prob be whatever is used to make Sanitized Octolings) and gained powers of sorts. And i think it would be funny if he was just a Fuzzy Octoling instead of a Sanitized Octoling.

Weapons

I see him as a Splatling player that plays a bit of every Splatling, but he would play Heavy Splatling Deco and Heavy Edit Splatling the most

Freeman

Octoling / Sanitized Octoling

Hear me out, Freeman was originally a normal Octoling, but when his G-man ‘gave’ him his job he became a Sanitized Octoling. It would make sense as he has to follow set rules and Sanitized Octoling follow every order and rule given to them. And after Freeman gets his memories back and G-man is gone he (possibly) gets turned back into a normal Octoling as an apology from the employers.

Weapons

I feel like he would only play Shooters, but plays the same weapons. He would most likely play .96 Gal, Jet Squelcher, and Squeezer.

also little bonus pic :3

[villafordefeatedvillains]

Redesigned this bastard's outfit because. No hate to Mothra we love you Mothra but I am. Not a huge fan of his original outfit (but I am a huge fan of his eyeshadow it's so fun. Slay bitch). I simply think he deserves some spiderweb motifs. Might or might not be plotting to redesign the Admin outfits as well. Also, you all get a free edit of The Olive Eating Bitch because Last Resort fucking loves drawing our alters and ESPECIALLY Gladys.

[gmanwhore]

Apparently the AU is based on hlvrv in some way (which means I probably won’t look too deep into it since idk the source material and have no intention of getting to know it) but, hey… since they made G-Man the protagonist they technically eliminated my main problem with hlvrv! I hope they enjoy the story they’re telling either way ^^

Oh that's good!!!

[crow-of-ohio]

hi, I'm Wil!

Welcome to the Mechs system!

We've recently rebranded from the Staff system to the Mechs system but we're not willing to go back and edit everything in the general system tag to use another tag so that's just gonna stay how it is lmao.

birds tag: #bird on main

System general tag: #staff system rambles

Wil: Host with the most benrey (HLVRAI): benreyposting Tommy (HLVRAI): Sodaposting Nastya (the Mechanisms): nastya and nothing more Drumbot Brian (the Mechanisms): insubordinate piece of brass Jonny (the Mechanisms): From the Captain Gunpowder Tim (the Mechanisms): Tim talks G-Man (HLVRAI): father time Neo (HLVRV): blue da ba dee Bea (brain-made HLVRAI): a tommy gun! Nero (brain-made y2kvr bad-end Loverboy): Rome is burning and so am i DJ (Y2KVR Forzen): DJ heartbeat Gordon (HLVRAI): howdy. howdy. howdy Leah (HLVRV Leading Light): you wanna kiss me so bad~ Evo (Capital M HLVRV): Capital M Ronnie (brain made): robotic heart Strama (hl/HLVRAI/HLVRV/Freeman's mind au): bitches love my carefree swag Atmos (HL/HLVRAI/HLVRV au): beep boop computer noise Frog (y2kau brainmade Coomer): so says the frog Bunny/Melody Calhoun (hl1 barney): half life guard model Deimos (madness comba): scout tf2 rip off

these will be updated as we go. But like you'll probably have to remind me

[puppycharmz]

ANYWAYS. HELLO. this is what i was obsesed over last night i could not sleep at ALL. i have more stuff planned to draw but i do not have the energy after the amount of drawings i just did (ramblings below the cut)

player and sleepless are a part of the RED team!

other members of the red team include:

(worldstop) darnold as the scout

swap as the soldier

doc as the demo(lotion) man

gordon b. as the heavy weapons man

malcom as the engineer

spork as the medic

freeman as the spy

--

neo is mx.busnhell, the person giving the teams their contracts and information! all of this information comes from the collective group of Admins (Freeman's Tommy, Bubby and Coomer), which comes from the mysterious G(rey) Mann... no one knows much about him or why he hired 2 groups of mercenaries to fight things out.

BLU team is made up of the characters from hlvrv chapter 3, but i havent got as solid of an idea there :(

[bbeeohazardd]

i just realized i never shared these BUUUUT more HLVRV B-Side(rp, not an actual ask blog), aka the Half-Life Full-Regret old men but young hehe

character order is Davidson, Jefferson, and G-Man!

[fictionkinfessions]

Guess who's back? Back again? Leading Light's back. Tell a friend. /Cj

Past actions from source are hitting me at the worst times. I'm scared. I'm scared something will happen. As if something just like source will happen again. I know it probably won't but it feels like it. I can't help but have this phantom feeling of the necklace I used to wear 24/7. I miss wearing that. But anyways, I can't help but see my ""science team"" in our irl friends. I miss MY science team. I don't care if they're all lovecored in my 'ending'. In one of my endings anyways.

Being a splitroject of Loverboy (Y2KVR and HLVRV) and Leading Light is sooooo fun when you deal with two sets of memories (/S); both so similar but so different.

To Bubby, Coomer, Tommy, G-Man, Darnold Forzen:

If you're out there, promise me you're okay. I'm sorry. Stay safe. Love you all. /P

I miss you guys.

[ #💗💌 as a personal tag if possible, please. /Nf ]
