Admittedly, you were in a pretty awful place in your life. College work was exhausting, your job was a living hell, and life simply didn’t feel worth living anymore. You missed the excitement that the world once had to offer, now dulled by grownup expectations and responsibilities. You couldn’t even remember the last time you had fun or anything interesting happening. So when a large resounding crash coming from your backyard shook your entire house, you didn’t expect this kind of thing to happen to you at all.

Your initial thoughts pointed to something semi-rational like meteor or maybe a strange earthquake, but upon sliding your back door open, you were met with a much different sight. A spaceship, about the size of two cars glowing with bright lights and metal, was hissing as it lay collided against the earth.

And coming out of the wreckage was… a tall young man. A man with… antennae embedded in his purple hair? Your breath hitched as you took in the very real possibility that this was an… alien.

Before you could run away or hide, the alien gasped upon seeing you and ran up to you like a kid in a candy store. “A real human! Oh, aren’t you just a cutie?! I can’t wait to experiment with you!” he gasped as he ran close and squished your cheeks. He was practically caressing you like an animal!

Just who was this handsome stranger from behind the solar system?
