Welcome to Black Mesa's Query Page. The Black Mesa Research Facility prides itself on the safety and success of it's employees. Here you will be able to ask questions to the researchers serving to make the greatest strides in scientific history. The communication between our staff and folks at home we hope will provoke new interest in quantum mechanics and in similar fields to then further experimentation in said field. Our facility is one of, if not the most, safest areas for such. Our fellow scientists can atest to this! Feel free to send an ask to our Official Black Mesa Ask Reader (O.B.M.A.R.) and a researcher will be right with you in just a moment! Remember to have a very safe day!

concept doodles of the Official Black Mesa Ask Reader (OBMAR):

and some cable concepts! i originally was gonna keep benrey the only catboy, but with cable's ambiguity, I thought it'd be cool to make them a catboy that managed to escape the combine's synth process:

Welcome to Catboy Central!
Fine Print: There is only one catboy right now, and his name is Benrey. He is the center of attention almost all of the time.
Hey there! Welcome to the ask blog for an AU with catboy Benrey ... and a few other changes!
Please familiarize yourself with the rules before you interact!
Rules:
No NSFW asks! There is no reason for it! The admin is a minor, please keep that in mind.
Also, any NSFW, MAPs, DDLG, etc. blogs DO NOT INTERACT! Again, admin is a minor!
No pedophiles, transphobes, TERFs, anti-antis, racists, blue lives matter, anti-black lives matter, pro-cop, are allowed anywhere NEAR this blog! Essentially, anyone who fits the criteria for the DNI page in my carrd, do not interact!
Understand that not every ask will be answered. School is very stressful and I will try to maintain a schedule, but if I miss a day I apologize in advance. Also, depending on the number of asks, if an ask is similar enough to another, I may not answer it. Furthermore, if an ask simply makes me uncomfortable, I will not answer it. I have my reasons and this is my blog.
Please keep in mind that the answers will be based on audio! If something appears in the comics that doesn’t stand out to the character, isn’t shown to make a sound, or the character doesn’t take notice to, please don’t comment on it.
Don’t send in anything that spoils the events in Half-Life, Half-Life 2 or HLVRAI to the characters. This blog takes place in that time frame, and I’m not planning on pulling anything meta.
Additional Notes:
Feel free to spam like/reblog! I understand some people can be anxious about it (whether it’s doing it themselves, or the person receiving it), but I don’t mind it one bit.
By extension, please, if you want to talk to me (the admin) about something regarding the story, the characters or the rest, head over to @feetlatta! No, that blog is not my main, but it is my hl/hlvrai sideblog. I’d really appreciate it if I could keep thing pertaining to hlvrai on that blog rather than my main.
There are posts with codes in them! If there is an issue with the code, please let me know and I’ll check it out. I’m new to a lot of this, so please be patient with me.
Text Reference - In case people get confused on what and how something is being said/portrayed.
Action:
Grammatical sentences describing the noises the OBMAR picks up. Once a character’s voice is recognizable enough, or a single person has already been noted, then they will be referenced. Otherwise, most noises are ambiguous. Usually bold and indented with the line at the side. This is to be able to tell apart dialogue and noises in the offhand OBMAR recordings.
Speech: Just, however the character speaks. There are no grammar rules applied to how one talks
Thoughts: (Speech but in parentheses! No one else can hear this except for the audience and the subject who is thinking!)
Trigger Warning - These will be tagged, but if there is anything you want tagged, please do not hesitate to let me know!
Experimentation,
Blood, gore, injuries - essentially the general violence of Half-Life.
Body horror
