#p2 chell

[junuve]

extremely underrated type of portal gag: GLaDOS making PA announcements to the entirety of aperture science laboratories staff (not just talking to chell)

Bonus points if its super clear her """general announcements""" are still just about chell

Portal 3 but it's about chell coming back to visit glados after idk 20 years or something and she's been so sad she's barely moved and the facility is overgrown again so the game mechanics are about using portals (somehow) to clean up glados's Depression Room™️

[pastinawitheggs]

finally played portal, we love her

[spiribia]

i like when people draw that one scene at the end of p2 when wheatley explodes chell and then incredulously goes Are you STILL ALIVE Youve got to be kidding me!!!! as she slowly half gets up anyway. with like chell epic piercing determination stare and wiping blood from her nose / mouth like its nothing. im glad we were all like I know chell looks sexy as hell right now. as wheatley exploded us.

Hello there! Hope you're doing alright! This is not a Chelley ask btw so feel free to pass it up but I vaguely remembered something about Chell having infiltrated Aperture to figure out what happened to her father? In ur Au and ive been on a splendid mood for father-daughter relationship angst so I figured I might ask!

Yeah, one of the reasons she registers as a test subject at Aperture is to figure out the circumstances of her adoptive father’s death; she has near to no information about what really happened that day, as the accident was swept under the rug and the families of the few who died that day weren’t given detailed explanations. Chell was barely 20 when he died, his passing deeply marked her life and put her in a bad place both mentally and financially. She joins Aperture years later as some sort of last resort, the place painfully reminds her of her father and she has memories of it from her childhood ( the times she was brought there by him during events like Bring Your Daughter To Work Day ) but she needs to take that step and search for the truth, because essentially she has nothing else to lose.

And she also becomes a test subject because they are regularly paid in this AU, not the best wage if you’re one of the basic test subjects but eventually once she gets noticed by Gladys and climbs the ranks becoming Number One she gets more privileges for also being the CEO’s favorite (e.g, she moves from the standard dormitory to an elite personal chamber)

Her being one of the best performing test subjects entails that she is put through their most dangerous tests for various kinds of research for new technology, so her salary also increases. She gets a stable, well paying job but she is slowly investigating, also thanks to Wheatley, with whom she opens up with at some point, and he decides to help her finding out the truth.

That’s all I’m gonna say for now, as I’m still (slowly but surely) working on the plot for this AU and planning to maybe make comics to reveal more :)) I like this being a slice of life AU for the most part but I figured roughing out a bit of a linear story could be good to spice things up

(also most of the Chell backstory is based on an already existing theory that she joins Aperture to find her adoptive dad, and she ends up getting caught up in the events to p1 and p2. Sobs. Canon Chell most likely never discovered the truth)

Some more HCs because why not.

Doug has a full collection of Bob Ross VHS tapes and learnt to paint using them as a guide. He'd re-recorded it all on Aperture made tape, so after p2 Chell finds them and connects to Doug by painting some (Doug may or may not be alive for this one).

Doug had a Polaroid and used photos as reality checks for himself (cube photos in p1 are an example of this). He probably lost the camera or ran out of film later, but found a digital one on the Moon (ARG cube photo).

Chell knows how to hunt with bow and arrow, which is the reason why her aim with portals is so good. She can and will hunt for food and hides after Aperture. That deer is in danger. Doug can make her a better gear, but would never watch.

Chell's ears were pierced before going into conservation, but the pod has a healing program and it went full on Aperture with her. No more earrings! She has some ideas about a hot needle after, but haven't committed to it yet. If she does, Doug will have to physically stop her or do it himself.

Doug knows some herbal remedies to help his symptoms, knows what mushrooms are safe and can fish a little. His cooking is bland tho (in Chell's opinion).

On that note, Chell is very open to trying Xen stuff on herself and Doug, while he is very, very, very hesitant about all the alien shit. So Chell is a test subject for antlion milk and Xen mushrooms.

Doug can hear Vortigaunts. He has an extremely weak Vortessence connection and is convinced the feeling is a part of his symptoms, but nope. Vorts are very nice to him though.

Portal Drawtober!!! Days 1, 2, 3, and 4

Day 1: Portal or Portal 2? Portal 2, not at all an unpopular opinion but my reason is that the energy pellet puzzles were more of a pain than the laser ones.

Day 2: Favorite Character: Who else but GLaDOS? Sorry Chell, you are a very close second though.

Day 3: Wake-Up Call: you KNOW Chell woke up with the worst eye crusties on the planet at the beginning of P2

Day 4: Portal Gun Reimagined: A handheld portal device, but it's small and lightweight, and actually fits on your hand!!

writing chell as a woman who has problems that are not of Aperture origin really makes the chelldos work for me, ngl. like, we all know what the fuck is wrong with GLaDOS, but chell??? well, i gave her some Issues™️, and its perfect (to me)

and it's not like i had to conjure up the possibility out of thin air. like... why the hell would someone so damned determined to keep moving forward go down into Aperture, a place that clearly is designed to Kill People, and sign up for testing? she literally didn't respond to the question of "will anyone miss you or come looking for you when you're gone"?! and then to not say a DAMN thing during everything that occurs in p1/2?!? who does that...? Someone with a past.

(539 words)

After what must have been several days of constant, laborious testing, it ends. Upon completing the last chamber the doors open to reveal a hallway, instead of the usual elevator. I heft the portal gun in my sore arms and step into the hall. I don’t contemplate whether this is a good choice. She would not leave room for choice. I jump at the sound of a wall sealing off the entrance behind me. The hallway is short and closed on both ends, like a shipping container. And like a shipping container, I feel it rise and spin in transit. I brace myself against the wall. Then it stops. One end of the container-hallway swings inward to reveal a room. I stumble blindly towards it. A slight misalignment in the floor between the hall and the room causes me to trip and fall. The portal gun clatters on polished linoleum.  “Don’t drop that. The Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device is difficult and expensive to repair. And we’ve been running short on technicians.” Of course. Her. I look up to see two glowing yellow eyes searing into mine. She is standing next to Chell, who is also staring at me, but with a much softer gaze. I scramble back onto my feet and assess my surroundings. The room appears to be an office turned into a makeshift dining room, with a cluster of pushed-together desks surrounded by chairs.  And then it’s my turn to stare. Because on the table, there is a cake. My first thought is that it is poisoned. That idea is promptly rejected, seeing Chell has already helped herself to a slice, frosting smeared across her lip. It is a priority of Hers to keep Chell alive and well.(Was that not my priority, too?) “This cake wasn’t supposed to be for you; it was her idea to bring you here. So go on, steal the fruits of my labor. Which you don’t deserve.” Chell glances at me apologetically and motions to a chair. I place the portal gun on the table and all-but collapse in my seat. With the adrenal vapors wearing off, I can feel my appetite returning.  I’m so, so hungry. Chell tentatively hands me a slice on a paper plate. I cannot resist. Using my grimy hands, I scarf down the cake without a word. Perhaps it is just my extreme hunger, but the cake tastes heavenly. The layers are soft and spongy, the frosting not too sweet, and the cherry filling can only be described as perfect. My eyes well up with tears. I hastily blink them away, but a few manage to escape down my cheeks. I expect Her to throw some rude remark at me, but She just continues to watch in silence. My animalistic hunger is momentarily mollified enough for my thoughts to return to Her.  It is a ridiculous idea that She would have any interest in a human activity such as baking (especially without the ability to eat). We programmed the Intelligence Core to recite a cake recipe for this reason. It was useless information to Her. Yet here I am, gorging myself on a real cake that (supposedly) She Herself made.  For Chell. Just for Chell.

I had a dream that a new update to portal 2 came out in which the only change was a new menu icon, called 'Journal' In it, after every test chamber or chapter (??? either one) Chell would write down her thoughts about what was going on with the facility in her voice, I was super hyped because it was a canonical depiction of how she writes / the language she would use and thought it'd be really good for depicting her character. Most of the journal entries were her being really frustrated at wheatley / GLaDOS. In it she was also in a relationship with Mel (Not portal stories mel mel, the OG playermodel for P2 before chell was re-introduced. )

portal drawtober day 3 - wake up call

sorry in advance

[gladosisstillalesbian]

being chell at the end of p2 has got to feel like being that marine photographer who encountered a leopard seal in the antarctic who took so much of a liking to him that she started bringing him injured and dying penguins for him to practice his hunting skills on
