(It's ok.)
Abby smiled, ”Well, as you can see, humans aren't quite extinct yet. But I am glad that she did find me.” she looked up at Adar. ”Anyway, aside from you being one of Nyt’s friends, there is another reason why I wanted to met you.”
Adar raised an eyebrow. "Really? What?" He asked, visibly curious.
Abby took a calming breath, ”I, sort of, self-appointed myself as an advocate towards peace between our two species.” she nervously ran a hand through her hair. ”I don't know why we were fighting in the first place but I want this animosity to end. I want us to share this world, as friends.”
Adar blinked in surprise but nodded. "I agree. There is no reason we should have done that. I would love to help." He said.
Nyt smiled and laughed. "Another one!" She said, raising her hand for a high five.
Abby happily slapped her hand against Nyt’s. ”Thank you, Adar.” she beamed. ”Really, I don't think I can thank you enough. So far, we have three other humans who are also on board. Not including myself.”
Adar chuckled. "That's not a very big number, but I'm willing to help no matter the number." Adar said smiling.
”Well, we are just starting but… We figured it would be best to start small and go from there.” Abby conceded. ”Like dropping a pebble in a pond, instead of a boulder.”
Adar nodded. It makes sense. The room went silent for a bit, no one really knowing what to say. "So what now?" He asked.
"Yeah. I was about to ask that as well." But chuckled.
Abby blushed lightly as she didn't really think this far ahead. ”We could all just hang out, get to be actual friends instead of just allies for peace.” she suggested.
Adar nodded. "What are the other humans like?" He asked.
"Come on. Let's sit down." Nyt said walking over to the couch and flopping down on it.
Abby chuckled a bit as she sat next to Nyt. ”In general or the others involved?” she asked raising a brow. ”Cause in general, right now, I think they're honestly scared and defensive. We're all trying to survive. It's not easy, I’ll admit, but humans are… resilient, I think is a good word.”
Adar nodded. "Makes sense." He said as he sat down as well.
(I'm running out of ideas!)
(Me too!)
(What if we skip ahead a bit and have one of them get hurt or sick? Like Caleb says that they have a small group of people that are ready to met Nyt but they get attacked by a wild animal. They’re able to fight it off but one of the two get badly hurt, like need a hospital hurt?)
”Oh, it definitely is.” She agreed.
You are so lucky I can't reach you right now, Caleb. Abby glared. One of these days I'm gonna find you your own cuddly Alien and have them take care of you when you're injured.
”So, you said you're a programmer. What do you program, Nyt?”
(Remember this? Wana make it happen?)
(Oh, yes!!!!! Are you recommending Adar?)
(That or I have another. I have the personality I just need a name for them.)
(Ok.)
(You start or me?)
(If you want to you can start)
(It might be a bit because I have writers block today.)
(Ouch! Sorry about that)
(Poke. How’s the writer's block today?)
(Better!)
Nyt's tail was wrapped around Abby as they laid down on the couch. A group of humans was coming today and she was slightly worried. I mean, why wouldn't she? The last time they met they tried to kill her. "You sure all these people are alright?" Nyt asked, still slightly wary.
Adar's tail flicked back and forth. Nyt and Abby had told him everything, as well as past encounters with humans. After hearing them he became slightly more agitated about the idea of the meeting but wanted to carry on with the idea. He was kind of excited. After Abby had told him that there was another gender to humans he wanted to see what the other looked like.
Mark carried Caleb over one shoulder as Peter held his other. On the way to Nyt's house, they had been attacked by a wolf spider. Caleb had scared it off but had gotten him hurt. He was unconscious. People were getting restless. "What if it comes back?" "What if the aliens took advantage of us?" "What if it tricked you?" Those were questions that people were asking.
Abby nodded. ”I trust Mark and Caleb. If they say these humans are ready to meet you, then I believe them. And if anyone does start a problem when they get here, Peter can put them back in line.” she looked back at Adar. ”You don't have to worry. I'm sure everything will be fine.”
Peter was starting to wish he was the unconscious one, so he wouldn't have to listen to everyone’s fears. ”Will you all calm down!? It's not going to come back! And Abby has been living with Night for a few weeks now. She's fine, we will be too when we get there.”
