11/13/24 – Use Your Words

|

In a bedroom aboard a Spaceship, Picknar and Thoos sat at a table, and Knox cradled Rodrigo in his arms. A large alien had entered, which for those of you who have read earlier Spacetrawler stories know to be Gurf. Knox pointed at him and started screaming, "auugh!! Auuuuuuugghhhh!!!!!!"  Looking up at Knox, Rodrigo said, "don't you think that's a bit over-reacting? use your words, Knox." Knox continued screaming, "auuuuuuuuuugghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!" Looking at Picknar and Thoos, Rodrigo explained, "we've been working on our language skills, but he still gets anxious. Don't worry this will pass."

So, when I started this series, I stated that I didn’t have plans for any of the old cast except for in maybe small cameos. And that was my intention, BUT… I had some other aliens written for this scene, and realized the old crew would be perfect, and it’d tie things together as a series. I didn’t intend to mislead, this just developed unexpectedly. But after this one scene (over the next few weeks), I still INTEND to have little or no interaction with the original cast. 🙂

    Hardly Spacetrawler without an appearance by the only Spacetrawler left … the GOB Spacetrawler. Thanks for working them in Chris. Of course, this means we’re all waiting for Mr. Zorilla …

    Nogg enters the room. Knox starts screaming and pointing at him, too. Nogg sighs.

    “Before we really start with the introductions, are any of you Zorillas?”
    “No, we’re humans.”
    “We’re Tiths.”

    Nogg sighs.

      Knox is using it as a compress to stanch Rodrigo’s bullet wound. He’s never shown removing his shirt. That happened in-between the page posted 9/30/2024 and the page posted 10/2/2024.

    The internet is made of cats. Thank you.

    Yeah, maybe you’re having a rough week…but you still somehow managed to produce something visually striking somehow. I will not ponder why Knox and Rodrigo are on a giant circular bed on some random spaceship because it’s AWESOME.

    Chris, in your written paragraph, shouldn’t that have the Tith’s names, not Val and Audri?

    Those are their bodies, but the minds inside are NOT the 2 humans. (Unless they switched back suddenly? I know I’m sleepy, but did I miss something? )

    I am happy to see Gurf. Tying storylines together is what makes things interesting and adds continuity between chapters. I hope you will work more of the old characters into this and future SpaceTrawlers
