Alien Story Ideas

Aliens not entirely understanding which earthlings are sentient and which aren't, leading to a visiting alien attempting (and maybe even succeeding) in communicating with a pet

Or, the other way around: aliens finding a human and assuming it is some kind of animal, keeping it as a pet in their spaceship

A human was kidnapped by aliens as a baby and–grown up now–is the only human in the intergalactic community. It comes with many advantages, but also some disadvantages.

An alien trying to disguise itself as human to study their culture and triggering extreme uncanny valley in every person it meets, creeping it out a lot in turn.

A human getting lost after a festival and, high as a kite, stumbling onto a spaceship just before it takes off. Aliens only discover the stoway hours later, when they're already a galaxy or two away from earth.

Could I get some prompts for an alien and a human falling in love from opposite sides of a war?

Alien x Human (On Different Sides of the War)

-> feel free to edit and adjust pronouns as you see fit.

"Your people would kill me for this," the human whispered, their fingers brushing against the alien’s clawed hand. "So would yours," the alien said quietly. "Maybe we’re both traitors now."

"They told me you were a monster," the human said, their voice breaking. "And they told me you were heartless," the alien replied softly. "Funny how wrong they were."

"Why didn’t you kill me?" the human asked, wincing as the alien bound their wounds. "Because I couldn’t," the alien admitted. "I looked at you, and I saw someone who might understand what it’s like to want peace."

"You’re risking everything just by being here," the alien murmured, their voice laced with a strange blend of fear and tenderness. "So are you," the human replied. "But I’d rather lose it all than never see you again."

"You know this can’t end well for either of us," the human said, tears threatening to fall. "I know," the alien replied, stepping closer. "But for a moment, can we pretend it doesn’t matter?"

"You shouldn’t care about me," the alien said, their voice a strange, musical echo. "Then stop making it so impossible not to," the human replied.

"Do you think they’ll ever let us be together?" the human asked. "No," the alien said, their glowing gaze steady. "But I’d rather fight the whole galaxy than give up on you."

"If I take you back to my people, they’ll see you as a prisoner," the alien warned. "And if I go back to mine, they’ll see you as a trophy," the human replied. "Maybe it’s better if we stay lost together."

"Your touch shouldn’t feel this... natural," the human whispered, their hand resting against the alien’s chest. "And yet it does," the alien replied, their voice trembling with something that could only be described as longing.

"If they find us, they’ll kill us both," the alien said, their tone serious. "Then we’d better make every second count," the human replied, pulling them closer.

Hello!

I want to write so much.

But I can't come up with interesting ideas...

Can you suggest something on Human/Alien?

Oooo I love this type of ship! Okie dokie!

1. A human raised in an Earthan purist community sneaks aboard a grounded merchant vessel while it’s unloading cargo on Earth. They’re found after the ship is already in deep space, and as a stowaway, they’re brought before the captain, a creature unlike anything human has ever seen. Though they’re scared and unfamiliar with the situation, they’re determined to stay on this ship, or at least not be returned home. As they get to know the captain and crew, they might just find out that everything they’ve learned about extraterrestrials is false

2. Human is the ship’s newest security grunt. They’ve worked the job long enough to know that their position is generally viewed as dispensable. They no longer see much point in building relationships with crew members who expect them die at the next planet, or with the security teammates they’ll inevitably mourn, so they do their job with their head down. But when a landing party accident leaves them confined to the sickbay for several days, they meet Alien, the ship’s medic, who seems thoroughly and genuinely concerned with Human’s care.

3. Mutinied by their crew, Human is marooned and left to die on an inhospitable planet. That is until Alien, marooned long ago and now adapted to the planet’s ways, comes to their rescue.

4. Alien is a planetary relations liaison, sent to Earth for a galactic peace gala. They’ve been studying up on their human social cues and language for months and things seem to be going perfectly, for themselves and the government figures they are guiding. That is until one of the human attendees, a boisterous and popular ship captain begins unabashedly flirting with them—helpfully pointed out by their new Earthan acquaintances. Human romance customs is one area of Earthan culture they did not prepare for tonight, and they have no idea what to do.

5. Human is abducted from Earth and forced to fight for the amusement of a nasty band of Space marauders. Earth is not the only planet they’ve raided, and in their new prison Human builds a friendship with one of their fellow captives. They find solace in each other and telling stories of their home planets, but at the same time they both are aware of the tension at the back of their minds. How can they trust each other when they could be pitted against each other at any moment? And how do either of them know their companion wouldn’t choose their own life over them?

6. Alien has been dating their human crew mate for about a month now. They are excited to share the news with friends while they’re home for a few days on shore leave, but the reaction is not what they were expecting. Their friends urgently inform them that humans are a species that eat their mates…and Alien has noticed them getting their mouth little close these couple weeks. They have to figure out how to break the relationship off without offending Human and fast.

7. Alien has been off-planet for several years in pursuit of a starship career. Along the way they met their beloved Human. Now they’re going back home to introduce Human to their family and organize the wedding. The only problem is even though they’ve mentioned the engagement, they have not brought up that their soon to be spouse is a human. They aren’t sure how their family is going to react or how Human will deal with their planet’s customs.

8. Alien is planetary royalty traveling to their race’s sister planet with whom they’ve had tensions. On arrival, they will meet their arranged partner, another royal, with whom they will forge a marriage alliance. Or that was the plan until Human, a space pirate, attacks their ship, taking Alien hostage and stranding the remainder of their crew.

9. Human has always been interested in the supernatural, cryptids, aliens, monsters, you name it. Even if people think it’s crazy, they want to believe. But it’s different when they actually get abducted by an alien. Just one. Who apparently did it on a dare and now has no idea how to get them home again without alerting the whole solar system, getting themself imprisoned and human put in a lab. So for now Human will have to stay with Alien and hopefully pull off their disguise as an alien.

10. Human has had a crush on Alien for as long as they can remember. But Alien has a strict personal rule against interspecies relationships, always loudly protesting about the difficulty of blending cultures and having different customs, beauty standards, instincts, and even biology. With such strong opposition, there is no way Human could ever tell them how they really feel.

Any prompts about human teaching god(dess)/alien/etc about human world?

Showing aliens the human world

"You said the sky was blue." "Yeah, why?" "Then we should probably take shelter right now! The sky is completely red!"

"Only one moon? Sounds a little minimalistic."

"I can't seem to understand any of these animals, while you just seem to speak to them without any problem." "Oh, I just like talking to them. And pretend they answer."

"So let me get this clear... you are a land animal. But you like to swim and even dive and you build yourself constructions to do it better and to even fly like a bird?"

Prompt 7

This being must have been at least 9ft tall, a body like a jaguar but scales like a snake and looked like neither. The scientist was starting to deeply regret choosing the one experimental journey that meant leaving their planet, leaving their solar system.

The being was prowling closer yet the scientist couldn’t seem to make their feet move beneath them. As what could only be described as a snout began to push against their sides shoving itself into the scientists coat pocket. With trembling hands they pulled out the contents of their pocket. Three skittles. One red and two yellow to be precise.

The being delighted in poking out its green tongue? And liking all of the skittles off of the scientist’s hand before swallowing them whole.

The scientist chuckled to themselves. “Gotta sweet tooth huh?” Th being let out something that could be described as a horses neigh before bolting off into the dense jungle like atmosphere.

The scientist stood there staring at where the being had run leaving trampled bushes and snapped twigs in its wake. “Yea,” the said to themselves. “Definitely a sweet tooth… never though I’d have something in common with an extra terrestrial.”

Any prompts for when the OTP are rebels fighting against an alien (as in outer space aliens) regime that has conquered Earth?

i can give it a try!!

written

B nearly getting captured, but before they're taken away, A shouts that they be taken instead as they can't bear to let B get tortured. Their offer is accepted, and silent tears stream down their face as they're captured instead, B's screams and threats ringing in their ears behind them.

A having a breakdown while in hiding and B trying to snap them out of it.

B and A are well-known enemies, but when this takeover happens, they both believe that they should try to stop it. When both of their families/teams warn them to stay out of this, the two of them decide to set their differences aside and work together against it. If no one else would fight, they would.

A gets injured and insists that B leaves them behind. Although B doesn't want to, even they know it's best and promises to come back for them...if they're even still alive.

dialogue

Every blue moon, there’s a chance that entering an ordinary building or area will take you to an otherworldly equivalent of that place. 

Which means A’s drive just got a whole lot more interesting.
