Summary
"Wash feels Church behind every hit, swing and weave, refining angles and force like a dance. And Church catches Wash at pace right along with him, changing tactics like it’s an old song he sings along to. And, for a minute, they think: This is it. This is what it was supposed to be."
The mercs force Epsilon back into Wash's head, and several subsequent days of That Happening. Featuring: daring escapes, two people trying really hard not to mess each other up any more than they already are, and Chorus as Space Australia.

Summary
They laugh sharply and growl and snarl and talk loud with their bodies like animals. The way they move and speak makes it seem like being human is the act, the pretending game. There is an edge to them that almost feels dangerous, raw and feral.
In other words, fish boys do not stop being fish boys just because they look human.

Summary
The Combine's chokehold on humanity may have loosened, but their grip left deep scars on the Earth. In the wake of ecological devastation, Alyx, Barney and Gordon find themselves chasing a last ditch hope through the wastelands, desperate to breathe life back into a dead sea. Between the Combine, a contract and the fundamental truth of ACAB, they'll have to overcome more than ghosts if they want a piece of the future. The highway's long, the stakes are high, and it's the end of the end of the world.

Summary
"Gordon isn't here because he's three halls down, hooked up to every machine we can think of just to keep him breathing. They're too scared to even touch him right now. You know why? Because he has so many concussions that his skull started leaking into his brain. Because we pushed him until he broke. That's why you didn't see him out there." Two-shot.

Summary
Benrey can feel Gordon’s old shit staring at him, its oppressive gaze telling Benrey ‘you have to unpack this shit sooner or later’ which, ironically, is a great metaphor for all the emotional shit he needs to unpack as well. He should ask an English professor to analyze his life or something.
If Benrey had his way, he’d keep all of Gordon’s stuff in the back of his closet and forget about it. It’s not like he desperately needs cash or anything. Not that he could emotionally handle selling any of Gordon’s things, but, you know, if something happened, and he really needed the money, for Josh’s sake, Gordon’s stuff would be right up on Craigslist. Benrey hopes Gordon would understand. He’d probably do the same thing for Joshua, if he were still-
Anyway.
A swap AU of HLVRAI, with a twist.
