Gabe Newell - Image #501,138

He came late when he heard the news of season three.

In a single instant the image of the man uttered a word. This word was so full of optimism, justified hope, and joy, that it would make even the most cynical of men or ponies smile.

It was a word that transcended any mundane perspective of time, for it is an eternal word; full of grace and meaning. That word is pootis.
