Hi!
So I have something to consider: The first human who achieves faster than light travel doesn't return to Earth, but just keeps flying deeper into space!
They encounter all sorts of aliens who are just so confused as to why this gangly biped from a non-space-faring planet is there.
Some assume the worst and think it escaped from some sort of abduction, and are actively trying to tempt them into a cage to take back to Earth.
HI I’m sorry I’m bein stupid but I don’t really understand the submissions thing, do we submit only stories? Short concepts/ideas? Questions about alien stuff? So sorry!!
You’re not being stupid at all, that was a great question!
You can do all of the above as long as you credit yourself at the bottom. Full stories will get posted quicker because I can just hit publish. Concepts and ideas are good to go. I usually dont do the ones that are just one or two sentances though. You’re welcome to ask questions about aliens, but there is no telling when I’ll answer. It depends on when/if I have enough time to give it a proper answer. And of course, nothing NSFW please :) i look forward to your submission (i assume)
So on the note of human bonding- we’re super sentimental? Like, first let me just point out that we call our death world “mother”. Also the fact that if something is really old and hand-me-down, than it probably means more to us that any of our new stuff. Just imagine a really well preserved WWII fighter plane.
Alien: Why do you keep that old war-craft? Why don’t you use the metal to make new things?
Human: Because it protected us.
Alien: But it doesn’t anymore? So why not?
Or maybe some human who’s three most prized possessions are a raggedy old teddy bear that their great grandmother made for their grandfather and eventually passed down to them, a piece of white limestone that their 6th grade science teacher gave them, and a dry stock of lavender from the bush in their childhood backyard that all their pets are buried under.
