That's a good point actually, any heavy metal you could use to house the human would be toxic to them. Not to mention the aliens would have to dispose of it and that'd be an incredibly dangerous job, like those firemen in Chernobyl who touched the graphite and died of radiation poisoning in the weeks that followed.

Not only that but they might see in a different light spectrum and we might appear blindingly bright to them

*opens the human container and gets melted in blinding light like the fucking Arc of the Covenant

So I've been thinking about this whole "Humans are space Orcs" thing and I believe I've come across something truly horrifying: HUMANS ARE RADIOACTIVE.

That's right ! Like a lot of Earth's biological life, Humans contain the Potassium isotope K-40 (or potassium 40) which emits low levels of Y radiation.

While such low amounts aren't dangerous to us, they might be for alien life.

I give you the following scenario:

The Grand embassy of the Gejoh'ed has been exchanging with the Human Cabinet of extraterrestrial affairs. Apart from their odd habit of shoving stuff into concentration camps and then eating its dead flesh, humans seem perfectly pleasant.

The Gejoh'ed invite the human embassadors onto their home world. The second the astronauts step off their ship for the official meet and greet, the entire Gejoh'ed assembly starts melting. They scream in pain as their flesh boils within their exoskeleton and their fifteen eyes pop within their sockets.

Humans are thereafter banned from interstellar flights as they are considered to be dangerous explosives.

The proper way to transport humans in a sealed lead container

The use of humans in the context of an armed conflict is a war crime

This but consider that HUMANS ARE OMNIVORES so the crew stares in terror as you devour a thick slice of dead flesh.

Not only that, but the likeliest life forms to develop anywhere would be autotrophs (organisms that can produce their own food through light water and minerals). Which could mean that for an important part of the alien crew, the mere sight of your eating another living thing would be horrific

Saw someone say that most intelligent alien life forms are likely prey animals, so I wanted to add something after falling down the humans are space orcs rabbit hole for the millionth time.

Humans are predators right? But in our day to day lives we don’t really act like predators very often. Very few of us actually have an experience with hunting, with one exception; bugs. Especially flies or mosquitoes.

Imagine you board a ship and all of your crew mates are life forms from other planets, all of them just so happen to be prey. You’re an engineer and general aren’t seen as very threatening. You’re the first human the crews ever had on board so they have no reason to think you would be. That is until somehow a fly gets onto your ship.

It’s meal time and this fly just will not stop bothering you. No one else seems to be doing anything so you decide to be the one to kill it. You go dead still and track it with your eyes, watching to see where it lands. Once it does you move slowly until your hand is directly above it, holding your breath before slamming your hand down. Finally the pesky bug is gone and you can go back to eating. To you it’s no big deal. I mean it’s just killing one bug right? But when you look up after rubbing the dead fly off the table with your shirt, everyone’s staring at you with a look of shock, horror, or fear.

After a minute or two everyone seems to unfreeze and go back to what they were doing, still nervously glancing over their shoulders at you every minute or so.

After that your crew mates seem to always be slightly on edge around you. Listening to you more often than before, and letting you lead in situations where violence might need to be resorted too. While it’s not technically your job on explorations, you in no way mind being able to protect your crew.

Plz tell me how to tag this is my first time posting something I actually spent time thinking about.

I LOVE THE MASTER SO MUCH BECAUSE THE FIRST THING HE DID AFTER WAKING UP FROM EIGHTY YEARS OF BEING HUMAN ON A PLANET HE'S BEEN TRYING TO SAVE FOR THAT LONG IS INSTANTLY START FUCKING SHIT UP.

The guy had no plan, no context to what he was doing, he just opened a watch, rose to consciousness and immediately went "imma pull that red lever thing to let the cannibals in, also I really should electrocute my green assistant and steal a TARDIS"

And I can respect that

Bave, better known as the Bavask, lives in the Siberian pine groves. Spanning 243 meters in length, it is the largest predator to ever inhabit planet earth. While most cryptozoologists believe the Bavask to be of great intelligence, some argue the erratic behaviors interpreted as signs of higher cognitive function are the result of its brain lacking a neocortex. It is heavily debated whether there are multiple or a single specimen of Bave. For thousands of years, it eluded human cataloging by using the clever technique of swallowing its discoverers whole.

So I just heard about the Severroll, for those unfamiliar, you sneak up on someone and jam a chip in their head, then yell "ha ! Get severanced !" And they'll never remember their families again
