“Us Vortigaunts can communicate with one another telepathically. We speak with flux shifting; our native langauge is what humans call 'Vortigese.'”
“That's really cool. Kind of how like I can communicate to different people using radio frequencies?”
“Almost exactly. You are learning well in such a short time span. Now, please excuse me whilst I finish.”
Wheatley watched with an intense interest as Illya sat on the ground, stock still and silent. Really, it was amazing to see such a creature who could do so many strange things; firing lightning from its two claws, communicating telepathically, having a third arm, really, he couldn't wait to see what Illya could do next. Wheatley waited paitently until Illya was finished.
(I'll continue writing tomorrow, this is the end of chapter 3 on ff.net so i kinda need a small break for the night. I need to get started on a project for summer, I'm supposed to be drawing the storyboard and writing the script for a short film and I really need to get started but I refuse to do anything until I finish this because I don't like to keep people waiting;;)

LMAO Wheatley's first experience with a headcrab is just as entertaining as I dreamed. I can't wait for his reaction to zombies.
And no worries! Take all the breaks you need, I know how stressful writing can get and I really don't mind waiting!! I also know how important work is, so please, do whatever you have to first! I am not going anywhere because you and this fill are stealin' my heart. ♥

No problem! I've been busy a few days myself (and will probably continue to be so- last week at the school I volunteer at), and I don't mind waiting.

Re: Inbound 11/?johnfreemannJuly 2 2011, 20:07:47 UTC
I AM A FUCKING HORRIBLE PERSON AUGH ;D;. This is why I don't usually write stories until they're done because sometimes I don't feel like writing. I'm starting to get annoyed with P2 a bit now...I kinda fell out of it for now, but now I'm into the Resistance games. I've been working on drawings for my portfolio and practicing with digital art for the first time Here's some samples: http://zhost.tk/u/ih/img107.jpghttp://zhost.tk/u/s7/img116.jpg There's alot of shit i need to fix but hey, it's a rough sketch lol. Without further ado, here's the story I procrastinated about long enough for.
After a few minutes Illya stood back up and dusted himself off.
“Well?” Wheatley asked, watching him expectantly.
“There has been a number of rebels and civilians passing through the camp to the White Forest. They have not been watching them pass through, but there is a possibility that she is either there or at the White Forest.”
“Ah, so she's okay?”
“Her condition is unknown.”
“Oh.” he said, his optic downcast.
“Do not lose hope, for it is all we have in these times.”
Wheatley nodded (or at least tried to) as Illya picked him up and headed out the door. Behind them, the Super Portal loomed ominously, lighting up the sky with the energy from the..the Dark Reactor core, right? Yeah. It was actually a pretty sight..if it didn't mean the end of the world, it would probably be an amazing thing.
As they traveled farther and farther away from the little shack, Wheatley was more and more anxious. Maybe some other people knew if Chell had passed, and just because the Vorts didn't know if they had seen her doesn't mean other rebels hadn't. He knew every moment he was traveling towards this “station” meant he was getting closer, but he was also loosing time. Chell could already be at this White Forest.
Or she could already be dead.
He shuddered at the thought. He had been avoiding that thought the entire time and now it had to enter his mind? Great. Just what he needed, a little guilt to drive him bloody mad all over again. But he may have been right, of course. He didn't know if GLaDOS kept her testing or had initially killed her after he was sucked into space. The possibilities were numerous but all in all, he had a feeling that she was still alive. A hunch. GlaDOS did want her gone, probably she just wanted her to stop destroying her facility everytime Chell awoke from stasis. She was probably right to let her go. If anything Chell would find a nuclear bomb and blow everything to smitteroons if she woke up a third time.
Turning his attention back to their surroundings, he noticed claw marks on the trees.
“Illya,” he asked, looking up at him. “Why are there scratch marks on here?”
“We put them there to find our way back to where we reside. Most of us do not get lost, but in an emergency we mark the trees.”
“I wouldn't have thought of tha-” he stopped mid sentence, his optic had caught something to their right. He didn't see anything moving. It was a field of dead grass, a bit swampy with water puddles here and there (ohgodwater). They made it out of the clearing a few seconds ago so no trees were in front of them, only surrounding them. Maybe he had seen something in the treelin- no, there it was again. It was in the grass.
“Illyathere'ssomethinginthefieldwithus” Wheatley said, shrinking back into his core. A roar sounded from the area and he whimpered as something limped towards them. It's a zombie! His mind screamed out at him as he looked at the headcrab on its head. Illya was right, zombies did look like he described! He didn't say extremely sharp claws though. And blood. Lots of blood.
Illya thrust his claws forward and the electrity came from his fingetips (claws??? What the bloody hell should he call them??), hitting the zombie in the chest. As that one fell, more and more zombies came from all around, slowly surrounding them.
“S-shouldn't we be going now?” Wheatley asked, quivering in Illya's hold as more and more of them came, moaning and screaming.. Last thing he wanted done to him was to be accidently dropped in the water while fighting these things. That would probably be the worst way to die.
