District 9: Hansen's Hope (Fan Fiction) - 1: Hansen's Residence-11:00PM (on Wattpad)  Based on the Oscar-nominated film District 9, J.A. Flynn takes you to an alternative story set in the same universe. Hansen, a progressive man living in South Africa is under the iron fist of his father, a right-wing tyrant who enjoys exploiting the aliens known as 'prawns' in the slums of District 9. Going against his father's wishes, Hansen not only attempts to help these poor creatures, but finds an unlikely ally...

random memory while i wait for substance painter to boot up -- when i first started meshing like 12 years ago at this point, it started out with me messing around with models other people made because i wanted to be my meow meows on second life -- i didn't really understand how to do anything in blender and i didn't know what surface normals were so i subdivided the model i was editing to like a million polys so it kind of looked smooth but if you zoomed in it was very clearly like 10's of thousands of tiny flat shaded polys

i then proceeded to rig, upload, and wear it, to which someone saw it and was like "bro wtf"........... 😭 i think about it still to this day

In 1982, a poleepkwa colonization vessel found itself disabled within Earth's atmosphere. Thousands of aliens became part of the South African population, though xenophobia kept them separate from humans in many ways. More than 500 years later, Earth is embroiled in the Covenant war with a coalition of alien worlds. When it's discovered that the poleepkwa homeworld has also joined the Covenant, the alien population of Earth has to deal with increased prejudice and accusations of disloyalty.

Prologue

Now to everyone’s surprise, the ship didn’t come to a stop over Manhattan, or Washington, or Chicago, but instead coasted to a halt directly over the city of Johannesburg. The doors didn’t open for three months. It just hovered there, nobody could get in.”

— Grey Bradnam, UKNR Chief Correspondent, speaking of the arrival of the poleepkwa mother ship to Earth in 1982

9 February 2550 Battle of Jannat Eta Cassiopeiae UNSC Strident

The rush of the pods to the surface of a planet during a battle always brought tension, although ODST troops had a way of taking that tension and building it into a frenzy of anticipation and excitement. It was a bit unusual for the ODSTs to be traveling in the troop pods instead of their individual drop pods, but as far as Henry Reynolds was concerned, this was the best mission he had ever been on. It was his first as a full ODST—no longer a rookie, he was not looked down upon as a newbie, and he was not looked at any differently for his non-human status.

At least, not by many. It was kind of strange, most of the ODSTs in his squad came from other continents on Earth, or from colony worlds, and those who did accepted him without a second thought. He was a fully-trained member of the UNSC, he had passed the rigorous standards that it took to gain admittance to the prestigious special forces group. But Pieter Koorsen was over there, giving him that look again. That look that burned steadily, accusingly, out from under his visor. Henry already had his specially-designed helmet on—he had a suit of armor that had been engineered to fit his unique physiology as the first poleepkwa ODST. (One day, Henry had no doubt, more and more poleepkwa would see fit to join the armed forces and armor would not have to be specially requisitioned for them. It would be stocked as commonly as armor for human troops.) But he did not think that Piet or anyone else could tell that he was looking back.

“Hey, Reynolds,” came a voice over a private COM. Henry turned his head slightly. The speaker was Jin Morimoto, a personal friend and the squad’s sergeant, who was seated next to him. “Don’t worry about Koorsen. Don’t even bother to look at him. He doesn’t deserve your attention. You know he’s a fucking specieist. He can’t even be bothered to dislike you for who you really are.”
