Ship FirTy Ep 3
Its been 6 earth years since Jonathon joined the crew of FirTy to research plant J15E25 and spurred the crews belief that human behavior was vastly exaggerated. About 1 earth year ago, Alice joined the crew and proved that all the crazy stories of human behaviors are true! Completely True!! And it’s taken a full earth year for the crew to not panic when ever Alice portrays her standard healthy human behaviors. For example, wanting to cuddle vicious animals and make them “pets” or her random bouts of crying, the smile of (apparently) pleasure that scares of most of the crew, and her energy that is only rivaled by a couple other races.
About this time First Mate Ale’eek’s contract is up and he is ready to head home. A new First Mate has been picked to join the crew, his name is Bo. Bo proves to behave exactly as one would expect from a Crovanks. He spends his first few weeks getting to know the other aliens on board the ship and soon believes that he understands the personality and behaviors of all abord the ship except Alice and Jonathon. He has never before met a race with such divergent behavior patterns. Yes, every individual in each race has their own personality, likes, dislikes, desires, strengths, weakness, etc. but no other race he has been around has such divergent behaviors in their species!
Jonathon tends to perform his work exceptionally well, keeps to himself when not on duty, and few of the crew members really know much about him. Alice also performs her work exceptionally well, if a bit different than what any other race would but that is where her similarities to Jonathon end. Where he is quite, she is boisterous. Where Jonathon tends to spend his free time in his quarters, she prefers to spend time in the common areas interacting with other crew members. Bo is very confused and vows to spend more time watching the behavior patterns of these two. He may not be a scientist, but his entire race is very inquisitive and thus has learned how to observe and make accurate conclusions. Bo looks forward to more opportunities for observation of Jonathon and Alice.
