my dad taught me history in high school (all girls, private, catholic school) and one of my absolute favorite things about him was that, unlike every other teacher I had, he was never calm when a bee or, more accurately, a hornet or yellowjacket, flew in the window. he would stop whatever he was doing, reach for a book or rolled up piece of paper, and say with great dramatic flair, “ladies, the enemy is here.”
My third and final contribution to @zelink-fanzine, the stickersheet!
I loved brainstorming what items in each game represented the bond between the pair that was unique to that game (with bonus Hilda and Ravio 😉) and y’know, managing to squeeze plants in even into this.
I hate to hand it to wheatley but imo one of the funniest moments in the portal games is “ah’m speakin’ in an ACCent that is beyond her range of HEARing”
the accent itself
the fact that he assumes that she can’t hear him based on nothing
glados has an american accent
the idea that she won’t notice the wall opening if she can’t hear him
the sheer annoyance in glados’s voice when she corrects wheatley
she calls him ‘metal ball’ despite very much knowing what a core is. is this a corephobic slur of some kind
There is just so much going on in such a short period of time
