Just a bunch of hypothetical soldiers,, playing with armor types and whatnot
This's probably been said before but we need to talk about how the hell Gordon Freeman went through the events of HL1 and 2 without breaking down.
He woke up late and showed up to work like normal, probably expecting to just go grab a beer with Barney after work. When he went to the test chamber, some things were messed up but yk, "Gordon doesn't need to hear about this, he's a professional!"
So he was in the dark about everything up until the Resonance Cascade. Can you imagine it just being some random Tuesday and you accidentally cause the apocalypse?
He watched most, if not all of his co-workers die, whether that be from the explosion, the miscellaneous aliens roaming the place, or from the military running around and shooting everything that moves.
Meanwhile, Gordon somehow manages to survive all of this, kills a fuck ton of military guys, and ends up having to go to space. In the span of like 2 days he's now having to save humanity. So he does, kills Gonarch and the Nihilanth and whatever, cool. Then he meets this weird lizard guy in a suit who transcends time and space and whatever because why wouldn't he, and then he wakes up to lizard guy again and IT'S BEEN 20 YEARS?
So NOW he's gotta navigate this new dystopian place that's in another country, and on TOP of that, he still has to deal with the aftermath of the Resonance Cascade.
And on top of THAT, everyone treats him like he's some kind of messiah that's going to save everyone from the combine. It's been like 3 days, give my man a break š
Then he's gotta deal with this girl who was a toddler the last time he saw her leading him around and flirting with him, (but also kicking ass, no shade to Alyx) his best friend is now like 50 years old, his old boss is an evil dictator, and the end of the world is gonna happen AGAIN.
And then when he and Alyx somehow manage to destroy the citadel, NOW HE HAS TO DO EVEN MORE.
Anyway. Give my man Gordon a nap and a weekend to just relax.

How the story goes, Nick gets hurt and Finch takes upon themself to help him heal and get Better. Nick is terrified but eventually he starts to question his fears and ideas. This human clearly means no harm. Not once they had gotten mad at him. He begins to enjoy the company evenā¦.until he gets better, and he comes to the conclusion that he was wrong and Crazy for allowing any of that. It wasn't natural. So he leaves It takes him only a day or two, after having tasted company and kindness again after years of solitudine and misery, that actually he doesn't want to be alone anymore. He can't be alone anymore. And he comes back in the dead of the night
Little girl, little girl Don't lie to me Tell me where did you sleep last night? In the pines, in the pines Where the sun never shines Will shiver the whole night through

"So,Ā Corporal Shephard, we meet at last."
Emotionally unavailable Barney
Explanation:
( based on a convo with a friend )
Just sort of based on Barneyās behavior throughout HL2, I know itās a popular headcanon to believe Barney would resent Gordon, but I honestly feel the opposite is true. Barney seems to have a hard time grasping that Gordon is really there, like Gordonās presence seemed to have set him 20 years in the past, he seems to associate Gordon with good memories from before the res-cas and the combine, he makes constant nostalgic throwbacks and quips about Gordon, it honestly felt like he was dying to rekindle that old friendship. It feels like heās trying to push out the bad memories, not wanting to acknowledge what actually happened because despite every single throwback he never once mentions the resonance cascade or anything that happened afterwards, itās all good memories. I think that Gordon (realistically) would need someone to talk to about everything that happened, he never got a moment to really process anything, being constantly on the move, and out of everyone there Barney is kind of the only person that could understand; but with Barney being a resistance leader I feel like heād gotten used to hiding his feelings and putting up a strong front for the sake of other people, being a leader part of his responsibility is keeping everyone in good spirits, in turn I think heād have a hard time being vulnerable around others.
This short comic is kind of a play on that, Gordon wanting to talk to Barney about it, just needing some sort of reassurance, and what better way then talking to your old best friend about it? Gordonās presence making Barney feel like the good olā days for a moment, he views Gordon with such a warmth that for a moment he forgets the world sucks.
Before being harshly reminded of the past heād been pushing so far out his mind in order to be in best spirits during what is the most important mission of his entire life, and trying to shut down any conversation about it in order to not dwell on the past during an extremely stressful and important mission.
Iāve been thinking about freehoun so much if you couldnāt tell.
