There's a frequency of sound that's used in horror movies to instill fear within humans based on some form of primal part of our brain that helps detect earthquakes I think?
What if there's an alien who speaks/makes sounds on that frequency or simply just creates it? The nicest alien on the ship and humans just get so uneasy around them because of this, but don't really know why.
I keep seeing all these things about siblings and how most siblings tend to make weird noises at eachother to greet eachother so now I'm wondering how an alien would react to that cause for me personally me and my brother call eachother by name but in the most voice Crack way possible or we just scream at eachother.
Brother: *screeches name as loud as possible*
Sister: *hears brothers calls and looks toward sound to make sure it was brother*
Alien with sister: is someone dying? You heard that awful sound too right?
Sister: yeah I heard it. Don't worry though it's nothing bad. *screeches back at brother*
Brother: *makes random noise*
Alien: are you sure everything is okay? I'm pretty sure the guide said that humans are in pain or scared when they scream or yell like that
Sister: yeah I'm sure. Just give me a minute *walks out of room to go see brother*
Sister: *comes back flipping brother off through the door*
Alien: *visibly confused* why are you trying to insult your familial? That hand gesture means something very rude so why do it to your family?
Sister: *still looking at brother and flipping him off* oh its fine. We do this all the time. We just give eachother the middle finger until one gives up
Bro why is there naked ladies following me tf
Help what do i do
Got any ideas? Because everything i come up with is already written down đ§
So humans have a funky little sixth sense for when someone/thing is looking at us and honestly wtf.
So an alien spy is trying to get human info getting progressively more concerned when the human they're tailing keeps looking around and acting like they know the alien is there. Maybe it's an alien species renowned for stealth and no other sentient in the galaxy had ever been able to spot them so at this point they're double checking themselves and going insane.
At this point the human's figured shit out and so they lead the alien into a trap much to Sneaky McSneakfuck's dismay and confusion.
So eventually humans hold a press conference about the whole stalker and the galactic federation or whatever it would be called is like:
GF: How in the dick shitting fuck did you know they were there??
Human: felt them watching me.
Gf: felt them fucking What.
Humans are weird
Hey there demons, it's ya Boi. I have no thoughts, head empty but that brings me to my point. How much of social media is just mindless thoughts? Like really why do we do this, do aliens do this? Just randomly talk about anything to complete strangers. Would they find it weird? Find out thoughts weird? Just imagine the senario, trying to show an alien your phone and then bringing up the topic of social media.
Alien: So you just say things and people listen?
Human: well yes but only certain things, like funny shit or fun ideas. No one likes to listen to the stupid things we read
Alien: then why read it if it's bad? Why not ignore it or not look?
Human: well some people just have the need to argue and we like to watch, it's funny to laugh at stupid people. But we mainly just look at cat videos, here look at this one-
Alien: You watch those willingly?! They are royalty where I am from!! You should pay money for this!!!
Human in a quiet voice:âŚ.. I fucking knew it.
It will soon be 25 hours in a day because the moon is slowly getting farther and farther away from earth

----------------------------------------------
Ziet rounded the corner of the shuttle carefully, the human and the second deathworlder following close behind. The shuttle was only to be docked for a little under sixty minutes, left empty for less than fifteen, and unguarded for a mere seven.
There! The cockpit hatch! She reached a tendril toward the handle, but before she could open it the door opened by itself, revealing a short, but defiantly menacing individual holding a nasty looking weapon. Ziet froze in horror, before speaking frantically, the normal perfection of her grammar lost to the urgency of the moment.
âKakia! Please just let us go, youâll never need to see me again.â
The individuals mouth stretched into a wide, unnatural imitation of a humanâs grin.
âWell, well, well, if it isnât my old,â she spat out the word, âfriend. Ziet, the highly esteemed logistics technician, how are you? And what are you doing with the recently escaped, and even more recently declared dead prisoners?â
She focused her weapon at Ziet. On a humanâs face a grin can be cheery. In the rest of the universe that grin is taunting, threatening, menacing.
âPlease just let us go, please. Please?â
âWith the price on their head? With the human ambassador to the GA right here? Why, that would be treason.â
She leaned in close, close enough that the puff of breath that accompanied each word ruffed the fur on Zietâs face.
âAnd you, my wonderful, treasonous colleague, here, at my mercy?â
The grin stretched wider, more teeth appearing, ivory white. The words came exaggerated, theatrical.
âIt was self defense. She attacked me with the deathworlders. She committed treason.â
Ziet recognized the weapon, specifically the three white dots on the side, and her blood ran cold.
âYouâre right about one thing Ziet.â
Her grip tightened on the trigger.
âIâll never have to see you again.â
The human lunged for the weapon, but no race in the universe was that fast. Ziet felt an impact against her chest, and then a horrible anticipation, like the moment between an injury, and the inevitable agony it would cause. No! Please no! Then malice, pure hatred, flooded through her from the point of impact, coursing through her veins, attacking every nerve and cell in her body. She felt the thaumutic energy in her system recoil, and than start to fight the attacker, but the attacker was sly, and as each pulse of power attacked it was converted, joining the ever-growing tide of hatred and pain. Her body decided that it wasnât going to win this fight, and instead chose to jettison the power through whatever route necessary.
The human watched in horror as his friend was shot by the attacker, this Kakia person. Zietâs eyes went out for a moment as the latent entropic energy was called inwards for the battle, and than shone with the power of a spotlight as pure energy was dumped en mass. This wasnât fast enough however, and more and more energy poured out. It started to leak from her mouth, then nostrils, and then it started to leak through her skin as thousands of amps of power were discharged. The entire volatus was shining with the brilliance of the sun, and nobody in the entire shuttle could see anything but white.
Just as quickly as the light had started it stopped, and the volatus fell to the floor like a spent battery. Kakia uncovered her eyes, and grinned at the human, raising the weapon for a second shot, but the human was already charging. She fired and fired, but had only time to learn one thing before the humanâs vengeful body slammed into her own.
Humans donât use magic.
Ziet felt the weight of several jumpsuits rapped around her. She knew they were jumpsuits because of the wafting smell of Squalus detergent, the brand used to wash clothing inside the personnel wing of the spaceport. There was a gentle tap on her cloak, over her left shoulder. She felt another. Tap. Tap. Tap. Then hand shook her, and she obligingly opened her eyes. There was the human, crouched before her, eyes locked on her face. The eyes were leaking, clear fluid running over the humanâs flat face, and dripping off his nose and chin. Behind the human lay the crumpled form of Kakia, a rivulet of dark fluid leaking from the corner of one eye. The human had bound her with another jumpsuit, so presumably she had survived her first encounter with a deathworlder.
âZiet? Can you hear me?â
The human was still looking at her, and she noticed now that his breathing was erratic, and saw proper fear in those alien eyes.
âI canâ
The humanâs mouth turned into a grin, a grin that spoke to intense relief, as well as to the effort the human was putting into not showing teeth.
âYou ok?â
The Volatus pondered this question. She felt gutted. Every ounce of strength had left her body. She couldnât even feel the slightest scrap of power in her system. Her head hurt, terribly, and nothing came to relieve the pain. But she was âokâ.
âIâm okâ
She winced at the grammar.
âSorry, I am going to be fine.â
âIâm glad. You scared us. I was so worriedâ
âWhere are we?â
âFlying. He says he can.â The human pointed a limb toward the second deathworlder sitting in the cockpit across the room. âWe leave the air five minutes. In five minutes, sorryâ
The volatus felt a wry happiness settle over her, despite the fatigue that overwhelmed her The humanâs grammar was improving. The human reached beside him and produced the weapon Kakia had shot them with.
âWhatâs this?â
Ziet didnât need to study the weapon to answer the question.
âItâs a malice gun, made by Simplicity. Itâs like a computer virus.â
The human gestured to himself.
âIâm okâ
âIt works by converting the thaumutic energy in your system, and I donât think humans have any.â
âOhâ
They waited in silence for a moment.
The other deathworlder, the one piloting the shuttle, grunted a single word, the only word it had learnt of galactic common so far.
âHey!â
The bio-luminescence on its arms lit up, and the human watched the flickering pattern closely, before saying a single word.
âSpace!â
The volatus glanced towards the cabin window, and saw the blue curve of her home shrinking. Soon it would be a full circle against a black canvas, painted with thousands of stars. Then it would faded away into the distance completely.
She was free.
