I’ve been so ingrained in the supernatural fandom even though I haven’t watched it. They talked about “Team Free Will” all the time, and the main theme about the show it to save people. I thought Will was a person... not as in the will to choose...

Dragons
Who said that a dragons hoard had to be precious metals and jewels? I’ve seen dragons that hoard knowledge but let’s expand that a bit.
Dragons that hoard bits of armor exclusively. They have a mannequin at the center of their hoard that dons their most prideful piece of the collection. The gold armor lays atop the piles of steel and iron ones. Mountains of sorted headpieces, breast plates, gauntlets etc create a maze around their lairs.
Dragons that hoard jewels EXCLUSIVELY. None of this coins bullshit. Small dragons that bathe daily in their tiny bits of shiny rocks, regardless of if the gems are worth any money or not.
Dragons that hoard cool lookin sticks. That’s it, just sticks. They carry their favorite with them when they look for more.
Dragons that hoard tools. No weapons or anything, just building tools. Dwarves tame these ones so they can trade with it, or borrow a certain tool they’d forgotten back home.
Dragons that hoard anything that emits light. They gather torches and keep them lit with their own fire. Their lairs sparkle because they use crystals in the walls. Anything reflective or shiny is attractive. Shiny swords? Hell yeah! Rusted sword? toss it.
idk man, dragons could be so much more intricate than people make them to be.

Have you ever had that one moment in your life when you’ve felt powerless? I’m not talking when you were too weak, or you couldn’t jump high enough, or whatever, but those moments when even if you do something, it’s not enough.
Like when your friend is suicidal. Or try multiple friends. And both of your goddamn siblings. Imagine for a moment, when they come to you, one by one, over the course of a few years, and they all confess their desire to end it all.
They look up to you, and all you can do is give them that bullshit “grin and bear it” excuse. Imagine they came to you with tears in their eyes, staring up at your own in desperation for words of wisdom from someone stronger than them.
Imagine their disappointment, when you tell them there is no real fix for it. Imagine them looking to the ground, sniffing, and saying “I guess you’re right,” even though they don’t mean it.
Imagine being so strong... so stable with your position in life, that you can’t help those who should be the easiest to help.
What people don’t realize is that those who give the school speeches that talk about this sort of depression or anxiety? They never really had it. Not as bad as you do.
Don’t try and seek the help of the strong, because those who have never felt adversity have no idea how to fix it.

Ok, so aliens that haven’t gotten used to humans and how weird they are is funny and all, but imagine aliens that are completely jaded and even something extreme doesn’t phase them.
Human: *Is vomiting blood quietly*
Alien: “Hey, other human. Are humans supposed to be able to do that?”
Other Human: “Supposed to do wh- OH SHIT, HENRY!”

Humans are weird - warfare
Ok, so we’ve seen all the ideas about how humans have projectile weapons, and have as of yet to discover plasma weaponry, but consider this:
“HumanGeorge, We, the Tli’kan have come to you in diplomacy for the barter of land, and weaponry,”
“Cool,” HumanGeorge chews on an ‘apple’, as they call their native food. “What end do we get?”
“In exchange for you recently obtained ‘Hal 92′, we will give you the secrets to plasma weaponry, a technology which will advance you to the point where your pathetic projectile weaponry becomes obsolete,”
HumanGeorge tapped on his lip as he chewed in a manner xi had only recently figured out was “mocking”.
“So let’s see,” he says, “We give you an uninhabitable planet, littered with valuable resources both your and my own species need, and in exchange we will get this knowledge of weaponry? Sounds shady if you ask me,”
“Why would it be?” xi asked. Here’s where they would snag them. “Just think, with your new weaponry, you could colonize hostile planets so much easier, your fame in warfare would be expanded to match those of the Throg, your biggest competition in terms of combat. With the rumors I have no doubt are true, you should easily be able to use this new technology to overtake your enemy, while simultaneously gaining an ally!”
Of course, this would also give them the ability to take back the planet they had just traded via hostile takeover using their new tech, however in doing so they would agress the currently largest and most prosperous nation this side of Glaxon 4. Not to mention as soon as they took the planet, they would carry their entire army to protect it, making any form of hostility an act of suicide, even by human standards.
The reason they wanted the planet so badly was because deep below its surface, there was believed to be crystals that would make plasma weapons far more deadly. The tech they’d be giving away would be outdated the instant the Tli’kan weaponize the new resource.
“Seems intriguing, but say we turn our weapons around and fire back? That planet has crystals beneath its surface, and we’d really like them. What then? Would you fight back? Don’t answer that, of course you would. See, the thing is, if we did fight back, you’d use your new technology gained from that planet to wipe us out, am I right?”
“Who says we’d make new technology from the resources? We just want more cruisers,” xi commented in their most sincere voice. xi hoped it translated well.
We can lie too human.The Tli’kan thought.
“No deal,” The human says, taking the final bite out of his red fruit.
Xey were taken aback by this comment. “Why not? This deal benefits you far more than us! Is that not what you humans sought from trade deals?”
“Actually it benefits us none. Actually, we’d be losing a planet, one which has diamonds, and lots of them,”
“I do not understand!” Xi shouts, frustrated. “What could you possibly gain from shiny rocks!”
“Well, for one they’re very popular with the ladies back home, and I have a bunch of scientists I promised I’d get laid. The other thing is, we’d like to weaponize it,”
Xi’s frustration dissipates immediately. They bark out what the humans equate to a ‘laugh’. “You have no means to weaponize it! Without the secret of plasma weaponry, you cannot wield it properly! I knew your species was enthusiastic, but I didn’t know they would try to complete the third step before they had begun the second!”
“We don’t want plasma guns,” HumanGeorge flat lined.
This made xem hesitate. “Pardon?”
“Ever heard of lightning?” HumanGeorge leaned in.
Intent now on finding information, Xi leaned in too. “It is electricity that arcs in your atmosphere, occasionally striking your earth and damaging things, right?”
“Exactly,” HumanGeorge continues. “Now, we use electricity in small doses to power everything we have, from our ships, to our phones. Additionally, we have these things called lightning rods. Now, what they do is they take the great big destructive energy our planet gives and harnesses it, breaking it down so that it’s perfectly safe to use,”
“You harvest your planets weather?!” Xi shouts.
HumanGeorge chuckles, an unsettling action. “When you put it that way, it sounds more dangerous than you think it is. But there’s more. See, my guys down on Hal 92 are harvesting the diamonds not to turn them into guns, but lightning rods,”
Xi stays silent.
“We wound that projectile plasma can be directed through a specific shape of diamond, and diamond only. It would make the shot way more condensed, and thus far more powerful. You were planning on making super weapons out of the diamonds. We wanted to make armor,”
“If directed in the other direction, we can turn this pure energy that is plasma into electricity to power whatever we want. Slap it on a mech suit, and it becomes immune to all plasma weaponry. Pull it over a ship, and the only effective weapon against it would be kinetic weapons, something only humans use now,”
“So what you are trying to say is...”
“The Throg use plasma weapons specifically. They train with them, they harness them, hell, they make plasma solid! They made melee weapons out of plasma! Meaning the more they hit us-”
“The stronger you’ll be,”
HumanGeorge shook his head. “The longer we’ll be able to last. We don’t need to be stronger. Take away a weapon, and any enemy is weak beyond defending. All we’d have to do at that point would be to beat them with stones, no advanced weaponry necessary,”
Typical human. To turn the universes greatest weapon into nothing more than an over glorified battery. To top it off, the crystals... diamonds, are one of the hardest substances in the universe, even xi knew that. Even if the Throg (Or any species for that matter) turned to kinetic weapons, they’d be throwing sticks at stones.
The only thing Xi could thing of doing now was to offer terms of alliance.
Because it would be better than surrendering within fifty cycles.
