I just wanted to thank you for contributing to society, an amazing few hours spent in binge reading, the feelings stirring in the chest when something in Kim wakes up after all those years. Reading it and seeing all those people, sceneries. Good soup.
Kim feels for the Satellite Officer. It’s clear what he’s been through, what Harry has subjected him to over the last few years - Kim only knows the half of it, of course, but he’s seen it before, hermit-cops pushing everyone away, their partner last man standing at the bombsite. Still, it feels cruel to punish this person for it, this wiped-clean, remade Harry, looking at Kim now like a bottle-fed animal about to be released into the wild. If Kim does go to the 41st, navigating all this will be an extra layer of complexity. He should think very carefully about it - about whether it’s worth getting mixed up in all this. The mess.
A slow-burn, Kim-POV story about going to the 41st, against his better judgement.

giant sign above my head that says "they'd rather be playing disco elysium right now" that pops up whenever i'm not playing disco elysium
Its this
these are three of Kim's possible responses when harry tells him he's learned about the pale and all the 'stuck behind our eyes' lines make me feel insane. they have the same feeling to me as his 'abattoir' line — hinting at how much of Kim's inner life is characterised by terror, loss and isolation. he's sheltering in the safety of his skull but he's also completely trapped there.
which is why it's so good that he's so wrong. the world he lives in is one where people leak their perspectives, leave fingerprints on the world tape, where harry can figure out how to give a revolutionary high five and in doing so get a permanent buff to seeing from kim's perspective/reading his mind/whatever the fuck you want to say empathy and edc are up to. and obviously, mazov and nielsen had their own telepathic bond shit going on. people in elysium (especially massive communists) cannot stay behind their own eyes for shit. everyone is also kind of someone else. the world isn't what it is. get plasmed motherfucker

i can’t wait for when chatGPT and ai image generation also crashes and each prompt cost $50 an attempt. oh you can’t get your stolen big tiddy anime ghibli art for free anymore? you want to buy real big boy art from real artists now? beg for it. beg for it like a dog.
I think more portal fanfic writers should take advantage of the fact that glados *is* the facility.
She's not just in her chamber, she controls the entire place!!!! She is the entire place!!!!
Need more people to get quirky with it in fanfics. Chell kisses the wall in the middle of a test to distract Glados. or cuddles with her by just like. Sitting in small room.
Instead of holding hands she drags her hand across the wall as she walks through hallways. Takes care of her by cleaning the place sometimes.
Can you tell I'm. So normal about portal.
IT'S DONE
