Something about Gordon Freeman that's extremely fascinating is how he was basically forced into the "Messiah" role by complete accident. Dude was on his way to work, caught in an extremely awful lab accident, and he was just fighting for his life so brutally that he ended up taking down an entire army, making the other less capable or equipped scientists assign him as the one that would go in and take down the Nihilanth - I mean, they basically didn't have many other options, or at least not many better options at their disposal. The whole time he basically doesn't have much of a say in any of it, which means he was practically railroaded into becoming the G-Man's employee by pure circumstance.
Doesn't get any better in Half Life 2 either - the surviving Black Mesa staff have turned this man they potentially sent to die into a legend amongst the resistance movement. The Vortigaunts chant his name as they draw murals on the canal walls. The Lambda - a symbol of both the Lambda Labs but most notably the symbol on the HEV suit - now symbolizes liberation. Therefore, of course, the man who bears this symbol is the liberator. By the ending chapters of Half Life 2, Freeman commands entire squads of rebels, appointed the leader regardless of how good a tactician he actually is - if they die, they died for him, not because of him. As long as he gets to the Citadel and breaches it's wall, all those deaths would be worth it - once again, others send him into a near-inhospitable environment to take down a near-invincible threat.
I think that despite us being in control of Freeman for most of the series, the real protagonists of the story are the Vance family. Eli, too, was right at ground zero when the Resonance Cascade occurred. He is the leader of the Resistance. It's very possible that he's the one who spread word of Freeman throughout City 17. The fall of Nova Prospekt AND the Citadel occurred as a result of Eli's capture. In the Combine's eyes, the Vances are a threat equal to, if not greater than Freeman himself. That, and the Vances have something Freeman doesn't - agency. They're beyond the G-Man's control. They're beyond the Combine's control. Their actions are completely their own, with no third party to control every single step they take. Over the course of the Episodes, it feels as though the dynamic shifts, with Alyx becoming a much more vital figure. The Combine are specifically after her now, because she carries the code capable of disrupting the portal through which the Combine could send reinforcements and finally consume Earth. In both the Epistle 3 script and in Half Life Alyx it ends with her basically taking Freeman's position under the G-Man's employ. She quite literally takes the role of the Main Character away from Gordon. This, of course, is nothing to envy, because it's been repeatedly shown that any character assuming this role in the series ends up being reduced to nothing but a pawn for those who control them. It's an extremely fascinating spin on the linear nature of the games, canonically acknowledging you're doing nothing but marching along a path someone else made for you. Despite being the one free man, you're not offered much of a choice.

Me: I am normal about this character. This character doesn't affect me in ways that it shouldn't to degrees that it shouldn't. When I see this character, I act so normal, people don't suspect anything of me because I'm so normal for this character. Yep, I am 100% normal about this character-
Someone: Hey, this character-
Me:

So Luz’s meeting with Dad-Titan in the finale actually really nicely explained WHY there needed to be the whole time-loop with Luz being the one to teach Phillip/Belos how to use glyphs.
It affirms/reinforces the idea that Belos was always nothing but a fraud who never had any true understanding of the power he was using. Because it’s clear he COULDN’T figure out glyphs on his own and never would have without help. At the end of the day, ALL the knowledge and power Belos had was either given by others or stolen from them.
Instead, it was ALWAYS Luz who figured out how glyphs worked. SHE was the one who actually connected with the Titan. Luz was always the one to understand the magic she was using.

Little reminder,
Your faves would not be alive if it wasn't for Milo Greer. And I stand by that, because if Asher stayed in the ward any longer I promise you he'd be on t-shirt. That also goes for Damien, David, Lovely and most likely Huxley. 💀 (Probably Sam and Vincent too cuz I know they wouldn't last too long)
Your faves would have been your favorite clothing brand by the time the department gathered their forces.
Just another reason why Milo Greer is THAT guy, shout out to my man he just built like that 😭

the thing that i love so much about my relationship is that i feel absolutely zero pressure for us to be in eachother's pockets constantly. not just in the way that we like to have our own space sometimes but that i don't feel guilty for getting fixated on a project and not texting him or leaving him on read for a few hours. we have a system where i just say "i'm so sorry, i fell down the Art Hole again" and he says "that's ok, was the art hole fun, can i see what you did in there?". or if i have a feeling i'm going to draw until late at night i'll be like "pre warning, i might be in the art hole this evening" and when i'm done he's texted me goodnight anyway.
tldr: find someone who doesn't get mad at you for crawling into a hole and instead helps you out of the hole and asks what you saw down there

Another g/t trope that I love but as a dialogue prompt
Giant: "You're scared of me."
Tiny: "...I don't want to be."

The Glamrocks
Minor redesigns, but basically how the Glamrocks look for each kid for the various routes.
I wanted the Glamrocks to have a bit more of a kids-attraction vibe then they do in canon, while still keeping their asthetics/core features.
I imagine Freddy and Chica tend draw in more younger kids while Roxy and Monty tend to draw in the older groups and wanted their designs to reflect that as well.
Edit: Here is Glamrock Bonnie and the Daycare Attendant with each of their kids and here is Glamrock Foxy with his Crew
Edit 2: hey I do commissions
