Jason Kolchek as an Aperture Science test subject (Portal)

Been thinking about this a lot! I have some hasty messy silly comics of him and Salim teaming up co-op-style to add. The boys would each have their own approaches to solving the tests but would ultimately need to work together. ;) In my head, Jason’s rocking his uniform like Chell in Portal 2, while Salim wears the full jumpsuit like in 1. Also, I imagine both of them would have a fun time snarking back to GLaDOS.

Sorry it’s sloppy! Don’t have a ton of time, just wanted the idea out of my head! Might give this more love and attention later (esp the gun lmao)

Play Style

Salim: Jason! Look! Jason: *already whooshing by, stepping, clicking* Salim: This wall tells us what we need to know to pass this test. Jason: No need! Already got it. Salim: What?! Jason: *tap tap on the wall* Yours goes here.

Jason and Salim doing some co-op Portal tests - some players like to know what’s coming in each test, while other players just like to jump in and see what sticks 😄 Start placing portals!

I try to be the first one and strategize until I get frustrated and just process-of-elimination figure out where my portals need to go - oops.

Curiosity

Jason: Salim! Over here. Turret: ... Jason: Isn’t he cute? Salim: Jason... Jason: Touch it. Salim: You touch it! Jason: Pussy. (And classic mistakes were made!)

Couldn’t resist! This was the very first idea I had for Jalim + Portal that made everything else come about.  It took a lottt of time and I’m really proud of it 🥺 

Some more rambles, sketchbook version for fun, and more Jason and Salim stuck in the Portal universe under the cut:

Jalortal (Jalim/Portal) comics coming together!! These opening panels to each are at least unintentionally faithful to Jason and Salim throughout the entirety of the Brothers/The City chapters 😂

It became a sort of joke with my friend while we played those parts, how often the characters could stop to be like, “SALIM come look at this cool shit I found” “JASON what do you make of this” “Saliiiim” “Jason!” etc. ✨ just excellent

More House of Ashes/Portal crossover - drawn on my phone to get the idea out of my head for how I wanted Salim to look (based on Chell from the first Portal game), so no reference used for the poor portal gun oops. But I liked it enough to share and give it a little color. He’s a cutie! I promise my art isn’t all terrible phone doodles haha

Basically, Jason & Salim have to work together Portal 2 co-op style to get through Curator!GLaDOS’s tests *nodnod*
