ok but xen fauna cuisine has got to be either strangely delicious or some of the most vile shit ever concocted by both human and vortikind.

I feel like an antlion grub fried up and coated in herbs and spices will be either the most rejuvenating or the most vile meal ever. The most healthy meal in the half life universe is eating an antlion grub whole and raw. This thing beats any earthly fruit or vegetable. Headcanoning now that this was Alyx's equivalent of "eat your greens" growing up. Mysterious antlion compounds will save you.

Go ahead and eat that whole globule of Larval Extract, Freeman. It does wonders for the integrity of your vortal tether. Cleanse your cords. Consume nothing but extract for a month and see the wonders it will do to the mind and the body. Blend it into a smoothie and chug it every day.

Sorry you can't see the creature he's frying on the spike but basically I think fast headcrabs are probably the shittiest fucking thing you could eat. I bet they're 90% like the soft fatty part of meat that's gross and stretchy. Gross! Instead Put A Xen Grenade Into Your Mouth

Moonward Rules So Hard.

Fiona's chill and caring but suitably skittish given her circumstances. Having listened to Midst, I'd assumed Jacob was a little person, but apparently he's average height, and Fiona's relationship with sitting is Extremely Complex Now. Dusty is quiet but kind, clearly going through it. Walden is gruff but centered, I love his bird and his no bullshit attitude. Vesta is awkward and clever and serious, and I really enjoy how Marisha's kind of reprising a little bit of Keyleth's energy.

Xen's body language in one character vs another is fascinating. Tomasi, a little sprawled out, fidgety, avoidant, excited, distracted. "No yeah don't wait up babe I'll be home late." Jacob, very still, alert but also deeply confused. "There's a lot to learn when you become someone's leg. I mean I'm new. I just got here." Goe, steady, taking up space with gestures but not invasive. "How ya doin', you doin' alright?"

The map kicks ass. I love the little model of how Midst rotates in and out of the fold. The lighting, the fog machines, everything. Excellent. No notes.
