  2. Summary

    This AU is based off of the base Combine Gordon concept. That Gordon is part of the Combine and against the Resistance and the Resistance fight the war while trying to save their leader. All the while Gordon has been brainwashed and "combineffied" meaning he is unwilling to go with the Resistance. When presented with the right evidence, Gordon pushes past the programing the Combine put in his brain and sees just how wrong he was. The Combine won't let him get away that easily. The moment Gordon becomes aware of himself and what the Combine are actually doing he attempts to contact the Resistance, resulting in a full mind wiping reset. Gordon is put back where he started, blind and unaware of the horrible things the Combine are doing.

    (I'm probably gonna re-write this description multiple times)

    Summary

    Every so often, the haze of instinct clears and his mind is made well-aware of the reality before him. After trudging through hallways of chaos and death and killing completely unfazed, he'll happen upon a body dressed in blue. No matter how many times Gordon sees a dead guard, he can't become numb to it. His heart pounds, his blood runs cold, and his steps grow heavy.

    Every time, he bears the dread that pools deep in his stomach as he waits for his world to end for the second time that day. He wills himself to stare down at the corpse, mind zeroed in on a single question. He breathes a shaky sigh of relief when he doesn't see the face of Barney Calhoun.

    ---

    Gordon and Barney reunite in the midst of the Resonance Cascade.

    Summary

    He awoke to hard earth against his back. Real earth. Not the cold press of stamped steel, rough concrete, or the dried out and sandy land surrounding the complex.

    “Well, it don't look like I’m in New Mexico no more…” He stated aloud. His words, uselessly obvious, fell as flat as his voice.

    Only a few weeks ago things had been fine. Busier, maybe. There had been a lot more technical problems than usual, yes, but-

    He couldn’t do this. Not now. He had to keep moving.

    And so, he did.

    Summary

    “Man, the number of times I’ve tried to give up being gay for Lent…” His hand leaves the gear stick and finds Gordon’s, squeezes. “Not anymore, though.”

    Gordon squeezes back. He’s scared, moreso with how Barney’s talking. He’s terrified that Barney’s going to go to the wedding in a couple days, alone, and get himself killed.

    -
    Pre-Resonance Cascade, Gordon goes home with Barney to attend his sister's wedding.
