Summary
Feetman's gonna be so fucking mad. Benrey can't wait to see the look on his face when he opens the door. Oh, shit, there are the footsteps, hell yeah, time to get punched in the face. "yooooo," Benrey drawls, looking– farther up than he needed to. Damn, HEV suit had hella heels. Like, platform shit, put a fucking goldfish in those badboys, Feetman is tiny withou–
wait.
This.
Is not Feetman.Feetman didn't have a lot of gray in his longass hair, but this rando has none in his fucking mullet, and also, no glasses. His eyes are brown and green, respectively, and he doesn't look as tired as Feetman did. He does look confused and nonplussed to see Benrey standing there, but that doesn't give way to recognition and then fury, so what fucking gives? Huh? Fuck new skins, all Benrey's homies hate new skins.
(Or, it's been twenty years since the Black Mesa incident, and Benrey has just respawned, ready to bicker with Gordon again. Gordon, after two decades of therapy and a good deal less stress, is just happy to have the asshole back. Joshua, though? Joshua's going to drag this fucker out to a Denny's parking lot if it's the last thing he does.)

Summary
“Well yeah,” Red huffs, crossing his arms. Freeman swears he hears a “duh” thrown in for extra effect, but that might just be in his head. “You’re both either clones sent to kill me or alternate versions of myself, also sent to kill me.”
He punctuates it with a shrug, accompanied by a challenging look. Yellow in fact challenges it, with an impressively disappointed facepalm that sounds like it hurt as much to do as it was to witness. He can feel his parents guilting him for going across the country for college all over again. “Okay! Okay. Why are— Why do all the options include your murder, exactly?”
Freeman nods along with that completely valid question, pretending that the thought of his own murder had not been the first thing to cross his mind when meeting the duplicates. Red sends him a dirty glare, like he knows the truth. Whether or not it’s just some sort of inherent instinct that comes with being the same person, or if he’s randomly got the ability to read minds is anyone’s guess.
Imagine that, versions of him with superpowers.
OR
Gordon Freeman meets himself. Ten times, in fact. Now he's not sure what's more likely to kill him; the end of the world or these maniacs.

Summary
In Gordon's defense, things had been better for a while - but now Black Mesa was inexplicably filled with alien creatures, and Gordon, as the only five-sense sentinel left standing, was the de facto leader of a ragtag bunch of absolute weirdos.
“Look, Gordon! Ropes! We can use these to - help me, Gordon!”
For what felt like the fifteenth time today, Gordon enhanced his vision and shot through whatever it was that was dragging Dr. Coomer toward the ceiling. Dr. Coomer dropped to the ground with a crash and immediately sprinted off.
“Hurry up, Gordon!” he called back. “We don’t want to waste time!”
Gordon dialed his sight back down to normal with more effort than it usually took and jogged after Dr. Coomer, grumbling to himself under his breath. When he joined Black Mesa, he hadn’t signed up for the end of the world.
