Author's Note
I'm currently trying to get myself back into writing - I've had terrible writer's self esteem for years and I've not done anything for a long, long time. This is my attempt at combining Portal (my new favourite game for what may be the rest of my life) and something that I don't need to be quite so perfectionist about (an 100 word challenge) with the end result hopefully being productivity and less feeling like my writing fails really badly.
Warnings and such: Any and all pairings are likely to be in this somewhere or another, but for the most part it's GLaDOS/Chell. Rated M for possible bad language, sexytimes* (f/f, m/m, f/m, who-knows-what-else) and violence in varying shades.
*In Portal fanfiction, would those be called combustible lemons? /shot/

A moment of self-indulgent emotion was perfectly acceptable given the circumstances, and who was there to witness it? She could always delete any record of this from Orange and Blue's memory banks. Just. Think. Of. All. The. Testing...
