The old man in the booth is a far cry from the young man who stormed the Overworld with Gordon Freeman, but he manages well enough. Age has taken its toll - about the only thing that has remained the same is the scar across his nose. Doing a crossword puzzle, like he is now (with a pen, no less), requires his reading glasses, which are perched on the tip of his nose, a lanyard running from the temple tips to the back of his neck. His hair and beard have long since greyed, but there's not a spot of baldness to be seen.
Maia, for her part, looks as spry as she ever did, perched on the table proper.
