I'm admittedly one of those fans that refuses to believe David 8 created the Xenomorph. Reverse engineered? Sure! I can believe that. The Praetomorph and Deacon classifications exist for a reason. People keep fucking with the thing.

I like to think the Engineers ran into the XX121 naturally, fucked around with their genetic material, and found out the hard way. David played god because he wanted to.

Also, the idea of nature on any celestial body being so inherently volatile to the point of creating the XX121 naturally is a fuck-ton more terrifying than any "false-god hubris" philosophical concept.

I guess maybe I'm a little more into the Sci-Fi side of things than the gore LMAO.

Engineer OC — Lorenzel

Prepare for a wall of text.

Lorenzel is an Engineer/Mala'kak who is 250cm/8ft2 tall.

He is a military chief scientist who specialises in bioengineering, he studies different cultures and goes sightseeing in his free time. He was overconfident in his work but that led to an outbreak, so now he is extremely strict with how things are operated. He is a bit of a humourless person and a party-pooper, though he does harbour an appreciation towards art and is selfless.

During his stay on LV-223, a nearby military base had an outbreak, so he went into hibernation. After waking he discovered that the Juggernaut assigned to his base has been stolen, so he sent out a distress signal that got picked up by Mulakai (another one of my OCs) while she was travelling through the sector to evade Enforcers. The two have stuck together ever since as he feels too much shame plus guilt to show his face to his people ever again, and Mulakai just happens to also be an exile, though her exilement wasn't voluntary. Currently is her mentor and teaches her his bioengineering knowledge in exchange for her saving him from the desolate moon.

I am spending the weekend watching all of the Alien franchise in chronological order, including Alien Earth, and a few things are stuck in my head.

1. All these god damn movies/ shows, and still only twenty fucking minutes (and that's being generous) of the god damn Engineers. Ridley, good sir, GIVE US A PREQUEL FOCUSED ON THE ENGINEERS YOU TALENTED FUCK. Respectfully, of course.

2. I like David, I do...BUT WALTER. God damn. I have new feels about Walter. I know, I know. Fassbender is both. But as Walter he has me all kinds of fucked up.

3. Romulus creeps me out. So many brutal themes.

4. Neomorphs: NOPE.

5. The Offspring in Alien Resurrection still gives me nightmares. Nope. Fuck that shit. If that thing came up to me wanting a warm hug I'd drop dead. Poor, miserable, creepy ass thing.

6. Alien Earth scares me because of the idea that companies would govern and rule... which... doesn't feel that far off currently. Businesses making vital decisions.... ugh.

Liking the engineers feels less like being in a fandom and more like co-owning a suspiciously quiet New York apartment with 5 roommates you never actually see.

Then once every full moon, someone walks in the kitchen at 3am, slams their mug on the counter and goes:

"So anyway, about HIM squatting all caked up like that"
