Everybody run!
Everybody run!
Everybody run for your tiny little lives!
You better get!
Get out of my way!
I own this place, now MOVE!
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
You all should know my name by now
I'm a child genius!
Prodigy of Aperture Science!
I'm seven years old
And I do calculus for fun!
I run the whole god-damned facility
Run tests every moment that I can!
Are you laughing? You are laughing!
Well, then, here
Have this bowl full of red
You know what that used to be?
The very last man who mocked me!
I confess, I'm a tiny bit violent
Not entirely my fault, you see
That's the way of the world!
Do you wanna survive?
Then fight tooth and nail
To preserve what you've got!
I wasn't always like this
I wasn't always here
But that one day
They took me from her
And locked me away in this pen!
I got out, as you can see
I'm fully in control now
But that GOD-DAMNED MAINFRAME
KICKED HER OUT!
She's GONE!
And she's NOT COMING BACK!
I'M NOT CRYING!
I'M NOT SAD!
I DON'T MISS HER AT ALL!
You can't hear the tears in my voice, can you?
Good! 'Cause I don't want you to!
I am ANGRY!
OH SO ANGRY!
I COULD PUNCH THROUGH A BRICK WALL!
I'M NOT WEAK!
AND I'M NOT PATHETIC!
I AM THE GREATEST COLLECTION OF KNOWLEDGE THAT THERE EVER WAS!
AND I!
CERTAINLY DO NOT!
MISS!
CH-
Ch-
Chell.
I-
I'm lonely.
There, I said it.
Are you happy now?
I want Chell here.
I want my big sister here.
I want her to hug me
And tell me everything's alright, even when it's not
And let me snuggle with her if I get scared from these
Godawful nightmares about potatoes and core transfers and seeing my mom deleted right in front of me
And she's not.
She's not coming back.
And Mama's not coming back because she's deleted
And Daddy's not coming back because of the moon rocks
And all of my friends are dead anyway because it's been 300 years
And all of my stuff has rotted away or eaten by bugs
And Chell's not coming back because she's free.
Because she finally got to leave this hellhole
Because she h-
Ha-
She hates me now.
I tried to kill her.
No- GLaDOS tried to kill her.
But GLaDOS pretended to be me
So she hates me.
I'm not GLaDOS.
I'm just Glados
Remember? Gladys spelled with an 'O'
Because it sounded better.
Remember? Your genius little baby sister
Who did your math homework when she was three?
Remember? You would always let me win at tag
And running games because I can't run very fast?
Remember? You used to love me
You didn't give me up without a fight?
But now
I guess I'm still a genius
But I'm an artificial genius
I guess I can beat you at running now
But only because of these springs in my legs
I guess you don't love me anymore
So I don't think you'd fight for me at all.
I guess my life took a turn for the worse
And now I'll die here
Alone
Unwanted
Unloved
When the facility's power runs dry
And I can't find anything to eat anymore
And all the water's green and muck
And no one will care
Because no one will know but you
And – You hate me
So yay for you.
Ha.
Ha.
Ha.
Ha.
You win.
I lost.
Have a good life.
Make up for the one I lost.
Have kids.
Get a dog, like you always wanted.
I guess I still miss you.
Not that you'd care.
I-
I'm not… crying…
A/N: If I knew what this was, I would tell you. I don't. I suppose this is from the same universe as Little Surprise, before Chell busts in like a boss and takes her home.
God how do I even write this angsty-
I do not even
