[podfic] Persistence Hunting by grocketinmypocket by sephonered
Fandoms: Guardians of the Galaxy (Movies), Marvel Cinematic Universe
12 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
"You need food, Rocket. Worse than me. A hell of a lot worse than me, and I'm worried about you. We have water, neither of us are hurt, but both of us will die eventually if we don't eat. And I can hunt down one of those," he said, pointing off into the distance at a four-legged ungulate of some kind, grazing on the tough grass.
"Neither of us have any weapons, genius. You're gonna just run up to it and crack it on the head with a rock?"
"No," Peter said. "I'm gonna run it down and slit its throat."

Gaea is not Eywa by Jack_The_Honest

Summary
Avatar: first movie
"This low gravity’ll make you soft.”
_Colonel Quaritch_ 21:03
The Na’vi find the death of animals sad, judge it unnecessary when humans kill regardless, they don't know our woods.
The Na’vi condemned humans for their brutality, it kept them alive, they don't know our home.
Humans scoff when a Na’vi calls them assassins and killers, we have done worse to ourselves, they don't know.
The Metkayina dive in their seas, they think humans can't swim, they don't know our oceans.
Neytiri, the Omatikaya and the Metkayina all judged humans as killers of their mother… they don't know her killcount.
Gaea is NOT Eywa
Jake never felt the need to excuse his species' actions… a kind of self punishing.

On Terran Loneliness by Bainshie
Fandoms: Original Work, Humanity Fuck Yeah! (HFY), humans are space orcs - Fandom
02 Sep 2023
Tags
Summary
Terrans are not the strongest species in the universe. They are not the fastest species. They are most definitely not the smartest. But Terrans are the loneliest, willing to befriend anything that moves and several things that don't.
After humanity nearly made themselves extinct with a "Terran brand oopsie"™, trillions of Terrans awaken from stasis and set themselves upon a Galaxy teeming with alien life, each writing their own story among the stars. Stories of compassion, of anger, of revenge, of justice. Stories of the clever and stories of the downright stupid.
But mostly the story of Terrans looking for the one thing that all beings desire: Friendship amongst a lonely universe.
A half wholesome, half emotionally scaring, half self improvement writing project, half mathematics fail due to there being too many halves. Originally posted and created for /r/HFY
On Terran Diplomacy: A bit about Terrans looking for friends.

When Izumi first learned what the term quirkless meant, she knew that her life was going to be different. However, she did not expect different to translate to waking up in a cell on a space ship with two aliens staring at her in what seemed to be fear.
Cut adrift from the only world that she’s ever known, will she find her destiny amongst the stars? Or will she be forced to return to a world that is even colder to her than the darkest reaches of space?

Summary
“We’re losing him!” Gamora called in panic, to which Drax retorted, “He is right there.” Groot was doing some sort of helpless dance in the middle of the room, shrieking, “I am Groot!” in a less than cheerful manner.
Peter was very very confused.
(Or, Normal Terran things that Peter does confuse the other Guardians, and it leads to interesting and somewhat stressful situations.)

Summary
“It suddenly struck me that the tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn’t feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.”
–Niel Armstrong
_____________________________If the history of planet Earth were to be etched onto the face of a clock, the entirety of human history- as they exist today from the beginning of time -all of it, would amount to less than a single second.
And that’s only considering the history of Earth. The Universe at large is millions upon billions upon quintillions of years older than that. Enough time for stars to die, for solar systems to decompose, rot away into nothing but solar dust and crumbling asteroids.
Tommy had never been a fan of outer space.

Peter may not be strong, or fast, or genius smart. But he grew up on one of the harshest planets in the galaxy, and has the endurance to prove it.
Or. Planet Earth is practically a death sentence for almost any galactic race and human biology is badass.
