| Okay – you’re making your Sci-Fi story. Earth has encountered Alien Life Forms, and oh, they’re here! Yep, aliens have found their way to Earth somehow, and here’s what they want – One Diet Coke, small, One Sprite, small, One Regular Coke, small, Fries, three, small, One cheeseburger, hold the onions, One Cheeseburger, extra pickles, and One Chicken Club, grilled, oh, and don’t forget plenty of the packets of ketchup! That’s right – they just stopped at the local burger joint to grab a bite to eat! Alright, perhaps this is just an Advertisement for the Burger Place, or a Comedy, or just a Cameo Appearance for the burger place in some crazy Sci-Fi movie, but as we all know, stranger things have happened. So, anyways, aliens have found their way to Earth. The reasons are many. One possibility is that the place is simply a pit stop - some fuel for the gas tank, and burgers for the stomach – and leave things at that. Granted, that might make things seem strange, but it’s not like anyone spends much time at a gas station/fast food joint. Alternatively, said aliens might live on Earth – immigrants, descendants of immigrants, refugees, descendents of refugees, invaders, descendants of invaders – take your pick, after all, humans have their own reasons for living in the places they live – born there, moved there, fled from there, took over there, someone got a job there, air was better there, car broke down there, momma made you go there, shipwrecked there – lots of reasons. The same reasons for Human Migration, as it were, are the same reasons that Aliens could have for inhabiting Earth. Now, the relationship between humans and aliens is always going to be different. In the beginning of the invasion, be it a peaceful invasion or a conquest invasion, you’re going to have, at some degree, mistrust, hatred, and potentially fighting, if not all-out war. For instance, it’s possible that the Governments of both races want to avoid a war, but there’s that Rogue Element that’s trying to provoke one. Humans send an agent to find out who is doing it, and, coincidently, so do the aliens, and both agents meet up with each other. And, just as in any spy film, or spy film parody, there will probably be that moment where both agents are looking at each other, trying to figure out the whole “Friend or Foe” thing, after which, they might decide to work together, or against each other. In case of a military conquest scenario, things get interesting: are they in for genocide, or do they have rules over who they can or cannot kill – armed combatants versus unarmed non-combatant, do they take prisoners, how do they treat said prisoners, and so on. After the invasion is over, peaceful or otherwise, you still have to look at how people react towards the other species – friendly, truce, mistrusting, Master and Slave, or some other such thing. Things get even more complicated when there’s still more races added to the mix. One never knows. Now, let’s talk about just how these aliens look. In many cases, depending upon the media, and when the story/film/TV series was made, most aliens will be depicted as humanoid – they might just look human, they might have pointy ears or bony ridges on their foreheads, they might look like humanoid animals, or some other humanoid creature. In many cases, it was just easier to dress up an actor to be an alien that looked human, or was even genetically human but from another planet, or put on some sort of rubber prosthetic for the forehead/ears, or some sort of makeup to make them blue or green, or put on a mask to make them animal-headed but human-bodied, and then suits and such. This is because at the time, it was just easier to base the alien off of a human-form, and just make them seem somewhat odd. Of course, with the Human Alien case, the reason for their look is that either Earth is a lost colony, or Earth suffered from some sort of apocalypse in the past that cut it off from its then colonies, and said colonies decided to, after all this time, take a look at the Mother Planet, to see why there’d been no contact for so long, or some such thing. Of course, when it comes to literature and animation, not to mention illustrated stories, to say nothing about the advances in CGI technology, it is now not necessary to keep the aliens humanoid. Other aliens look like they were based off of animals, or some sort of mythological creature – or is that the other way around? Now, what kinds of stories are there? There is the often used Alien Invasion, where the aliens attempt to take over the Earth. Or, maybe it is set Post-Invasion, and someone has decided to mount a Resistance against the Alien Invaders. Or, maybe the aliens settled peacefully, or had been accidental refugees, because their ship was damaged and Earth was the closest habitable place for them, but now comes the whole matter of integration – and perhaps the relations between humans and aliens is more of a metaphor for the relationships between races, religions, countries, and the like. Perhaps the story is an Inversion of the usual themes. Then again, the story just might be one of those that revolves around some sort of fetish. Yeah – maybe the story involves a fetish. I have mentioned Vore in a previous Newsletter, where one sentient being eats another, but that was of course that newsletter. Another fetish is of course, sex – human getting it on with an alien, or the other way around, or between two different aliens from different races. Of course, there are such a wide range with fetishes, and maybe I’ll have to make newsletters involving several of them on their own. Of course, no matter what the story is about, or why the aliens are on Earth, or any of the craziness that’s going on, be sure to have some fun writing your story. Say, what’s that strange craft flying overhead, and what’s the deal with this beam of light that just |
