GF: Heh, it's okay. I remember Avatar...
GF: You're almost right, but replace years with days.
GF: It all happened one morning... Very normal morning.
GF: I was 30 minutes late for work and in a huge hurry.
GF: I can almost see myself on the tram...
GF: Hurried my ass to my post and went to do an experiment.
GF: In layman's terms, we were going to shoot a large laser at a highly-unstable alien crystal sample.
GF: I was...
GF I was the one who put it in the machine...
GF: Three guesses what happened next.
Puahh.... -looks pensive wondering of any places he knows Meat could possibly be safe in without getting chased out-
TT: You accidentally signaled those Combine aliens to come to Earth?
TT: Or the crystal reacted violently to the laser?

mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanGF: That and worse.
GF: The Combine themselves did not show up immediately.
GF: But the angry and confused native wildlife of Xen, the alien planet from which the sample was taken, did.
GF: It was utter chaos. I was the only scientist in the test chamber to survive.
GF: The aliens continued to pour through the newly-opened portal, and killed almost everyone in sight.
GF: I really don't know how I made it out alive.
GF: Very long story short, I managed to escape both the aliens and the military, who were ordered to kill us all.
GF: I traveled to the aliens' homeworld of Xen and killed this giant fetus-looking thing that was basically the aliens' leader.
GF: But it turns out that said massive fetus was actually holding back a much larger threat, namely the Combine.
GF: And before I know it, I'm working for a walking corpse in a business suit who has a penchant for stalking me,
GF: I'm put to sleep in a black void for 20 years, I wake up on a train, and my old boss has sold humanity to the Combine and made himself the figurehead of the dictatorship.
GF: So, basically that.
(Watches ol' whosit take his glass.)
GF: He really doesn't have to do all that.
GF: But anyway, the Combine are still a threat.
GF: And I'm still fighting alongside the Resistance.
GF: We've done some things that've really hurt them,
GF: But they're not done yet. We still have much left to do.

LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!
