Syvek, looking at Ana's monitor: The exhaust fans are failing!
Ana, not even looking up from what looks suspiciously like minesweeper, smacks the monitor.
Syvek: The light has ceased. I believe you have damaged your monitor.
Ana: Nah, just needed a little percussive maintenance.
Syvek: I'm sorry, W H A T
Maybe somebody’s already made a post about this but consider, in the vein of “humans are space orcs”: humans are the only spacefaring group seemingly unfazed with ship malfunctions. Continuous ones. We just roll with it. Red lights on the dashboard indicating “hull breach”? Those have been on for a month, it’s fine. Rear engine stuck? Nah, just jiggle the throttle a little. AI on the fritz? Yeah, he’s been like that, just give him a sec to wake up. We come from a long tradition of ignoring lights in our cars and running our computers so hot we can heat small houses you better believe that’s following us out into space.
Also ducktape. Ducktape is the answer to everything.

The first time Gene tells Syvek to hold his beer, Syvek replies, "Gene, there are no alcoholic beverages on- WHAT ARE YOU DOING"
The second time Gene tells Syvek to hold his beer, Syvek replies, "Gene, do not jump off that- BLAST YOU HUMANS AND YOUR DEATHWISH"
The third time Gene tells Syvek to hold his beer, both of them end up in the med bay due to a "slight miscalculation".
The fourth time Gene tells Syvek to hold his beer, Syvek dives under the table.
“When a human says ‘hold my beer’, that’s a warning. That’s when you run. ESPECIALLY if the said human is not currently holding a beverage.”

Vascular Closure Devices Market By Share and Size Analysis 2024
The major players in VCDs are St. Jude Medical, Morris Innovative Research, Vascular Solutions,
Abbott Laboratories, Cardiva Medical, Cardinal Health, Marine Polymer Technologies, Terumo Corporation, Advanced Vascular Dynamics, Benrikal Services, Scion BioMedical. St Jude’s is the leader in the global vascular closure devices market.
Download The Full Brouchre of Report: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/sample/sample.php?flag=B&rep_id=13565
The inherent vascular closure device market has been segmented by types of devices and geography. The types of devices include the manual compression and vascular closure devices. The VCDs are of two types: active and passive. Passive VCDs provide enhanced hemostasis with mechanical compression but do not give prompt hemostasis. The passive VCDs are further classified as hemostatic pad,(Chito seal, CloSur pad, Neptune pad, Syvek patch and Dstat), and compression devices (femostop system, compass system, clamp ease, safeguard dressing and x press device). Active VCDs are categorized as suture devices, clips, polyglycolic acid devices, and collagen plug devices.  Collagen plug devices consist of two type’s angioseal and vasoseal whereas polyglycolic acid consists of mynx and exoseal. Based on the geography the VCDs can be segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa.
An increasing range of endovascular procedures, preference for minimal invasive surgeries, decrease in the rate of vascular complications after the use of VCDs (angioseal and perclose), increasing catheterization related procedures, reimbursement for diagnostic procedures carried out, ease in usage and quick hemostatic properties of VCDs, and comfort provided to the patients are the major factors responsible to drive the market of VCDs. The increasing cost of implantable vascular devices, complications associated with VCD, low adoption of advance technology in the emerging countries, the rising incidences of leg ischemia, growing infection has resulted in decline in VCDs market. The number of peripheral vascular procedures is increasing yearly, leading to sustainment and stabilization of the market of invasive VCDs.
Vascular access site complications following catheterization procedures are one of the most frequent causes of morbidity. Manual compression is the most commonly followed procedure in achieving hemostasis of the arterial site. However manual compression frequently requires anticoagulation, prolonged bed rest and patient discomfort, along with time constraints for healthcare providers. Vascular closure devices (VCDs) have emerged as an alternative to mechanical compression in order to reduce the hemostasis that includes biodegradable plugs, sutures, staples or ultrasound.
Browse Global Strategic Business Report: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/vascular-closure-devices-market.html
Vascular closure devices offer advantages over manual compression in terms of patient easiness, reduction in ambulation period, and clotting time, however complications related to the femoral site are still present. The main goal is to prevent vascular access site complications, and achieving rapid hemostasis. These are effective and well tolerated in the procedures that do not use anti coagulation and in diagnostic procedures. Due to the several advantages of VCDs over the traditional mode of hemostasis, they are widely used in both diagnostic and interventional procedures. Various types of vascular closures are developed over a period of time that incorporate different mechanisms. The safety of VCDs remains in uncertainty as they may rise the risk of infection and leg ischemia. The benefits conveyed by VCDs are supposed to be costly; particularly in case of invasive VCDs. The increasing desire for radial access in the coronary procedures, is a major concern for VCDs market, as the radial artery can be closed more easily, thus opposing the need for invasive VCDs. This could also result in a swing from invasive VCDs to the low-priced manual compression device.

@dragonriderthroughandthrough
Ana shuffled across her rug in her favorite fuzzy socks, the materials dragging against each other with a sound that made Syvek cringe.
She then walked directly to Gene and very carefully poked the precise tip of his nose.
"Ow! Agh, dammit Ana!" Gene rubbed at the tip of his nose as Ana collapsed into giggles.
"How did hu- Ana harm you, Gene?" Syvek asked.
"She shocked me!"
"How were you shocked? You saw that she was walking to you, you saw her hand raise to touch your nose. I cannot imagine you are unobservant enough to have failed to notice her."
"No, she... here." Gene moved to the rug and shuffled across it just as Ana had. He then touched Syvek's "hand". A sharp, stinging pain erupted where human flesh met alien.
Syvek trilled high, harsh, and loud, as his people were taught as children to respond to pain. Both humans clapped their hands over their ears and stared, wide-eyed, until Syvek stopped trilling.
"Um... That was... Are you okay?" Ana appeared distressed. Gene still stood, staring at his little amphibious friend.
"How did you cause pain with a touch? You have touched me before without causing pain!"
"He shocked you, Syvek."
"I admit I was surprised, however-" Syvek broke off at Gene's expression of dawning understanding. The human male rushed to explain,
"Syvek, humans conduct electricity. We're like 90% saline. When we scuff our feet on the rug while wearing socks, we build up a static charge, then when we touch something or someone, the charge is released."
Syvek was silent. Humans conducted electricity. And could temporarily store a charge.
Oh, stars.
Deathworlders were walking batteries.
Humans are weird: Static Electricity
I’ve been looking at these humans are weird/humans are space orcs/Earth is space Australia posts and I’ve yet to see anything related to static electricity. Like how would aliens react to the idea that humans can just accidentally “shock” each other and how would humans explain that. Or what would it look like when an alien gets “shocked” for the first time, and the human that shocked them was not effected or not as effected as the alien was. What if aliens can’t accumulate static like humans can but they can still be shocked by statically charged humans.
Please feel free to take this idea and run with it, I would love to see the results.

Syvek heard a strange whirring passing his quarters. It was not a sound typical of the ship.
The little alien cautiously peeked out his door to find...
What appeared to be Kre from Communications, riding atop a metallic disk. The disk was the source of the whirring, and had left a streak of exceptionally clean floor in its wake.
With an ear-shattering whoop, Ana skidded down the clean streak in her fabric foot-coverings (socks, he thought).
Syvek chose to return to his research. Clearly, there was still much he needed to know to properly care for his Deathworlders.
Kre could be interviewed later.
Why is it that humans are so oddly impulsive? Just think of all the things we do “because it’s cool!” or without any forethought at all? Imagine things like:
Alien engineer: Behold! The massive fans of this power turbine utilize magnetic levitation for maximum output!
Human: It looks like a huge blender.
Other human: I wanna throw a tomato in it…
Human: “Hey look! I made a huge sculpture out of ration packs!”
Alien crewmate: “Yes, that’s…impressive? But why did you do it?”
Human: “…now that think about it I have no idea. I was just double checking the manifest and…umm…it happened?”
Pretty much any object will be tried on as a hat at some point. (“LOL GUYS LOOK THIS ENGINE PART FITS ON MY HEAD! I’M AN EVIL SPACE ROBOT BEEP BOOP!”)
Alien: “Human-Steve, why did you dump these minerals in the fuel supply?!”
Human: “Because it makes the thrusters shoot rainbows! You ever learn about pyrotechnics?!”
Impromptu games such as jousting on cargo dollies or sword fights with pipes or tools. Even weirder tiltes and pomp surrounding them like, “ALL HAIL JOSEPH, KING OF THE LAUNDRY ROOM! Bow before me, peasants!” or “Team Woofermuffins will prevail! You will not succeed in claiming the Spork of Destiny this time, Minionbubbles!”
And of course the classic, “Oooh, what does this button do?”

I haven't the courage to write my poor, awkward Syvek into this situation, but can you imagine an alien picking up a pamphlet on human sexuality and the need for humans to engage in regular self-stimulation? The absolute cringe of a gelatinous, genderless blob handing a stressed out human female a fleshlight (or stressed human male a g-spot stimulator) they picked up at the last station and saying that sex is an important part of stress relief for humans, and how dare they neglect themselves.
On the bridge.
my fav trope is like, nonhuman characters not understanding human needs/customs but still being super supportive of their human companion
“look what I found while exploring this planet’s surface!” “kilrak please I’m trying to sleep” “ah yes your human circadian rhythm. *stage whispering* I am supposed to be quiet during this time in your rhythm, yes?”
“the book I purchased on ragnok V says humans require physical touch when upset. therefore, I shall engage in a ‘hug’ with you.” *supremely awkward five-armed hug ensues*
*human sneezes* “OH MY GOD SIL'EEN GET THE MEDIC OUR HUMAN IS DYING”
“this pamphlet I received recently says that humans require companions and packmates in the form of small earth creatures. you should have told me this before we departed earth, but it is no worry. we will have to stop at the next trade planet to get you one of these ‘cats’ or ‘dogs’.”

Human Gene, eating breakfast.
Human Ana, walking into the ship's galley, not actually fully awake yet.
Human Ana: *grunts*
Human Gene: Good morning to you, Ana.
Syvek, checking his translator settings: Human Gene... My translator appears to be working properly, but it failed to correctly translate Human Ana's greeting.
Human Gene: Well.. um...
How would aliens feel about all those noises we make, like "mm-hm" for agreement?
I like to think they’d believe these noises to be a part of human languages they simply cannot translate, or perhaps words they don’t know yet. Perhaps they wouldn’t even register those noises as being consciously made or something at first? Especially if they didn’t have that kind of communication themselves.

@dragonriderthroughandthrough
Syvek glided through the corridor, headed for Human Gene's quarters. Human Gene had promised to help him find a suitable gift for Human Ana's Day of Birth, a strange human ritual of congratulating a person on their birth. So odd, but apparently an important social gathering. Human Gene had told him that human young even used attendance of such gatherings as social threats.
Syvek pushed his musings aside and buzzed for entry to Human Gene's quarters. Human Gene called for him to enter, and enter he did.
Human Gene was standing in his food preparation area, slowly mixing a colored liquid into a large bowl of white powder.
"Hey, Syvek! I'm making bath bombs for Ana!"
The small alien stood, vibrating with fear for a moment, before rushing over and bodily removing Human Gene from the vicinity of the dangerous substances, his gills heaving in their breathing apparatus.
"What the hell, Syvek?"
"MANIPULATING DEADLY CHEMICALS FOR THE PURPOSE OF CREATING EXPLOSIVES IS NOT BEFITTING BEHAVIOR UPON A SCIENTIFIC VESSEL!" Raising the volume of one's spoken word was often the only way to impress importance upon humans.
"Explos- Syvek, what are you talking-"
"You are creating explosives for Human Ana!"
"I am NOT creating explosives!" Human Gene appeared indignant.
"BATH BOMBS!" Syvek shrieked, utterly frustrated.
Human Gene stared for a moment, then seemed to erupt with laughter. It was Syvek's turn to stare, befuddled, as the Deathworlder sat upon the ground and began to wheeze.
"Syvek! Bath bombs aren't real bombs!" Human Gene managed between bouts of giggling. "They make your bathing water fizzy and smell good."
"There are... no dangerous chemicals involved?"
"Well, you wouldn't want to rub citric acid into any place tender, but it won't actually harm a human. Here, look."
Human Gene scooped up a handful of the (now gently bubbling) mixture and dropped it into a bowl of water. The mixture fizzed and bubbled alarmingly, turning the water a frightening shade of purple, but as Syvek braced for a possible explosion... nothing happened. Syvek glided closer, carefully coming over to the bowl, where a floral... something reached his scent organs.
"This... is the scent of Human Ana's preferred plant life," Syvek observed.
"Yeah. Freesia," Human Gene replied, gently stirring the scented water with his fingers, then showing them to Syvek, proving that he was not harmed.
"I... appear to have ruined your gift. I apologize."
"I've got more supplies. You want to help make the next batch?"
Syvek gently placed one webbed hand into the bowl, and found it to be safe, if a bit too warm. "Yes, Human Gene. I would enjoy that."
"Gene, Syvek. I'm the only Gene on board, so the title isn't needed. Just, call me Gene."
"Yes, Hu- um. Gene."
They worked quietly, and after packing the damp, colored powder into spherical molds, Syvek looked up at his human coworker.
"It is my understanding that the exchange of names without titles denotes a close relationship."
"Yeah, Syvek. It means we're friends. Ana's your friend, too, you know?"
The little alien thought about that conversation for a long while. Deathworlders were notoriously loyal. They would fight and die for those they considered friends. It was considered the highest of honors on the ship to gain a friend in a Deathworlder.
Somehow, Syvek had gained TWO.
Humans are weird: Bath bombs
I don’t know if this has been done in the whole humans are weird type posts but imagine how an alien would react to bath “bombs”. Like they accidentally find out about bath bombs by overhearing a conversation about two humans discussing what to get one of their other human crew mates for their birthday or a holiday or something. And this alien is silently eavesdropping on the conversation until someone suggests bath bombs and the alien completely FREAKS OUT like it heard of the different types of weapons and destructive stuff humans have made and thinks that they mean to hurt their human crew mate and just the general hilarity that would ensue as the alien comes to understand what a bath bomb is and that it won’t kill the human like so many of their other bombs would.
If something like this already exists I would love for someone to send me a link to the post where I can read this.
If it doesn’t exists and someone wants to write it then please send me the results.
