Date & Time: A recent Saturday night, about 9pm
Location: The Stubby Toad
Who: Gordon & Barney
Summary: About Black Mesa...
"So... uh, Barney... you wanted to know what happened back at Black Mesa."
That's as graceful a seugue as Gordon can manage halfway into his third beer, but he realized well before this that he'd have to tell his buddy eventually.
But it's not something that he can talk about easily. Not because of trauma, but because he literally cannot articulate some of the shit he'd seen in there. The beer isn't helping his eloquence, but it IS making him care about it a hell of a lot less.
