The Aliens are soooo lucky they didn't encounter the Imperium :)))
Suffer not the xenos to live brother.
OR DA ORKZ!!!
DA ZOGGIN' GITZ WULD GET A GUD KRUMPIN'!!!
WAAAAAAAUUUUUUUGH!!!
I know right. The emperor protects.
Xenos were spouting a lot of heresy indeed
"So the only question I have left for all of you is what kind of neighbors do you want us to be?"
AKA
Are you all really sure you want to greet us with that kind of hostile attitude? 🙂
- You has 44 planet. We has 38 planet, 12 lunar colonies, 15 asteroid settlements, and 23 drifter fleet. Your first mistake was thinking i represent my race with our best ship and technologies. But your main mistake was thinking, there is such a thing for humans, as "enough". We are both curious, in a way, greedy and above all, tenacious, therefor we push ourselves as much as we can, as far as we can. And we doesn't stop willingly...
I can just imagine the faces of the alien, feeling that what they have thought to be an easy pray, could become there predator...
We are
Those who chase
@@スガルYou would think the Confederation would have double checked the translation. It would have saved a lot of bloodshed.
@@スガル I think you mean: Those who run. It's a title of another short scifi story.
@@Antebios It is the title of the story, but if you look it until the end, they state, that it was, in fact, a translation error. They just didn't think it was such a big of a deal, when they found out, so never corrected it. The other aliens, who thought that "title" radiates weakness - "those who scourge" - learnt in the bad way, that "those who run" isn't the same as "Those who run away"... As you can run towards as well.
Please, we need all of us want a series story to this. Don't leave us hanging like that
IKR
This is an old story (6 years old?) with no additional parts. Although the author also wrote another story called “Those who run” and “Tattoo” which I enjoy.
Those who run is another great one
@@bennett3415 it is.
@@MrSqurkI just finished Those Who Run. I had a few comments on the story such as:
If the Confederation thought the name gave a bad impression, why not ask for clarification?
Who attacks an enemy without finding out about them?
Last comment 'Play stupid games, win stupid prizes'. 😮
Heh. They were expecting another nice bit of meat to divide up for dinner, instead they discovered a whole herd.
...Now let that sink in for a bit.
Of cape buffalo.
a herd of beings that will eradicate them if they make a wrong move
Not a herd, a pack.
No, not "herd". That word by my knowledge mostly used for herbivores. The "pack" might not be perfectly accurate as well, but far more closer to the truth - we are omnivores, we can live on fruits or other plants, but if we need, we can tear flesh apart with just as the same effiency.
Looks like that this was another of those "Assumption is the mother of all F-ups"
As Reacher says, "Assumptions kill."
When the cute little animal you're poking at turns out to be a T-Rex with little patience
Moopsy...
Like the first time a wolf meets a honey badger
Lablonnamedadon has the same vibe to me as "According to The Judgment Of The Oratrice Mechanique d'Analyse Cardinale."
Oldie but goodie. Would have been more hilarious if this writer considered space habitats.
Be like “just one planet, our home world is habitable… but every star we colonized has about 1 trillion humans so we are very secure and have colonies around every neighboring star to Sol.”
The human ambassador mentioned asteroid settlements and "hundreds of drifter colonies" as if they were seriously big political/social units on par with planets and moons. I think space habitats would be covered by those.
@@noppornwongrassamee8941 individually they are tiny and insignificant but mass/living space surface is anywhere from 500-1000x. If given a “Mass Budget” enough to build either a perfect planet or an equivalent mass of space habitats… the space habitats give you at least 250 planets worth of population.
It wouldn’t be a mere “hundreds”. Sol alone has enough material in Astroid Belt and Ort Cloud to probably build 10 Million of these and have enough rocky junk left over to build a second Earth. Even with two perfect Earths thats probably less than 50 billion humans and 5% or less of humanity on Planets.
@@noppornwongrassamee8941shorter “greater planetary dispersal, lol… nah, just one planet but there’s 1 Trillion humans around each of the first dozen neighboring stars to our home star. 8 planets wouldn’t be enough to handle 0.01% of our population.. planets lol, but we are definitely dispersed far enough to be safe from calamity and close enough to each other to respond rapidly“
@@noppornwongrassamee8941maybe i’m understating the efficiency of mass for O’Neil Cylinders.
1 Earths worth of mass = 100k to 1 million x Earths habitat surface
(depending on how Science Fiction vs Science Fantasy your building materials are)
“Hundreds” is woefully underestimating what we can do even if we limit ourself to just steel as a basic building material.
5 overpopulated Earths with 100 billion barely even be 1% of 1 solar system population.
I think the word "Lablonnamedadon" should be adopted into the English language! And I love the ending... they didn't see that coming!
Would love a multiple part series to this .
i suspected at the human's reaction to the concept of lablonnamedadon that there were more human worlds and laughed at the description of the world they found the human on and the ship he was in
i also suspect the humans have a higher tech level
Well complacency fits well enough. Problem is we humans are too stoic and ambitious to ever admit when a .nother world would be too hostile to survive and still would make it work.
The twist was obvious from the mid point, simply by the virtue of the story type, but at the same time, the rest of the story was quite a thrill. I was actually expecting there to be even MORE humans than are present in this story, but for now, it works wonders, given the two empires are of comparable size. Everything they are, versus one new species.
Mind, you'd think given there's less than 10 races in this alliance they'd already be learning everything they could of new arrivals in their sphere of influence. Still, different though processes are different, as shown by the title term, of which even his own word isn't a complete synonym, just a close approximation.
I do agree with others, this FEELS like an opening, like there's more story to tell here, but in the end, isn't that how the best tales go? Especially when the audience is already here to listen to dreams. Given them the soil of a fertile field, and let them dream up for themselves what follows.
I expected 3× the alliance planets.
Sounds like the "council " might be about to meet Fleet Admiral Leroy Jenkins and his flagship, the Terran Defense Force dreadnought... the FAFO.
I think it would have been even funnier if the council had received a signal from every star with in 100 light years of Earth, about 60,000 different systems. And then the ambassador state that humanity had been colonizing for only a thousand years so far. And had a population of about 100 quadrillion total.
But I believe in expansion to every knock and cranny.
I doesn't think that terraforming a planet is so easy... Also, there might be some solar system, where there isn't any planet in the inhabitable range from the star of the system - planetary colonies usually depends on them at large (as an energy resource, mostly).
@@Senok13 Terraforming is not the first step in colonization. Even if we found a planet close to Earth like it would take tens of thousands of years to terraform. Colonization would start with setting up near asteroids and moons to begen building the infrastructure in that system. Then expand to a Dyson Swarm of artificial habitats around the star and around the system. The final step would be to terraform anything. And many would probably not even bother as it is much easier to just build rings around planets and domes or underground habitats on planets than terraform. And those colonists would have gotten quite good at doing that with all the others they have already made in that system.
Great story! Nothing better than putting bullies in their place!
*Greater Planetary Dispersal!*
Sounds like an expletive one shouts when stubbing a toe.
Another part too this story would be interesting i think to see what the outcome and aftermath would be
Great story! LOL!!! "bully" kid meets an adult!
Found this page a couple of weeks ago. This is the best ending to all of the stories I've heard so far.
Part 2 please
Just remember people, "Great fences make great neighbors!"
One of the best, I've read it several times.
Now do Those Who Run.
This is one of my favorite stories from HFY
I'm addicted to this channel! This story is incredible
THIS IS SOOOO AMAZING, this NEEDS A SEQUEL! Please and thank you! :D
Great Story . Doesn't really need extending on . Unless the Dumb Aliens choose to be BAD Neighbors .
The numbers at the end dont make sense. The set-up for the reveal is that humanity is actually overwhelmingly more powerful than the Alliance instead of the other way around, but the numbers seem to put them on relativy equal terms.
If anyone sees this, I kinda think Humanity is at a disadvantage because even if they have the same sized territory, the aliens probably have greater density because they've had longer to develop those colonies. Like a unified Europe circa the 1910s vs the United States.
Any bets on how long it takes to totally destroy the alliance and it's policy of economic slavery?
"Humans are open to trade negotiations with all planets that wish to so. I see no reason to join and be bound by your alliance regulations. Anyone interested can meet with me after this meeting."
Good story. More of this universe please.
Only 8 worlds per species? That makes it easy to hunt you down then.
The last past gives a smile on my face 😂
Amazing storie just amazing.
And the mic dropped. 🤣🤣
This happens when your ambition and greed has limits. Not a human weakness. ;-)
Any chance we can get at least a few more parts to this story? This has potential.
Good story l
Shit, this is good! Really goodo!
💙👍
Gracias por tantas historias.
Many of these stories would fit in the 40k universe, it would be cool with similar stories but with races encountering the Imperium of man instead. But cool storys nonetheless
This seems to be a new and welcome source of new scifi stories ,like the magazines of old ...what is your name ,writer ? I like your work
I love OP humans
for the great story....
Humanity. Fuck yeah.
Maybe the humans need to teach the saying: "A rising tide lifts all boats."
Human ambassador is looking out the docking window because he is in awe of primitive tech spaceships 😂 nothing is new to him. The settlements one is bigger than the alliance and having that much means they have more advanced tech and control to resources to developed what humans already have.
What happened to Terran contact ?
Is like if continental Americas people discovered Europe and Asia.
That is a mic drop.
He could of used the term Diaspora in this context but then there would be less of a story.
it is improbable that the human representative would be a private citizen in a hunker
He didn't want the "official" politicians to screw it up. Forget polite wordplay, let's get down to business.
Besides I am sure the "officials" considered his excursion an excellent fact finding mission. I have no doubt he has kept them updated on his discoveries. It would be in his best interest to ensure he didn't disappear and the alliance pretending he never arrived.
You call this an Intergalactic Alliance? Y'all are nothing more than an insurance company.
They're not even that. They're a pyramid scheme.
More?
I FUCKING LOVE THIS!!!!!!!
IF YOU HAVE THE TECH-LEVEL TO TERRA-FORM A PLANET; IT WOULD BE FAR EASIER TO HARVEST THOSE RESOURCES BY BUILDING EITHER AN O'NEAL CYLINDER (OR PERHAPS MANY), OR AT LEAST SPACE STATIONS (AGAIN MANY)!!!!!!!!!
WITH AT LEAST ONE SPACE-PORT ON EACH!
I'M SCREAMING IN ORDER TO POINT OUT THAT WHICH SHOULD BE OBVIOUS!!!!!!!
YES OF COURSE IF YOU FOUND A PLANET THAT COULD BE COLONIZED WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT WE WOULD DO SO!!!!!!!
THIS IS WHAT WOULD BE THE MOST LOGICAL SCENARIO!!!
HOW EVER IF YOU DON'T LIKE ME SCREAMING ABOUT THE OBVIOUS...
... TOO DAMN FUCKING BAD!!!!!
I'M SICK OF THE LOGICALLY, AND SCIENTIFICALLY ILLITERATE; WHO THINK TERRAFORMING IS WORTHWHILE!!!
Sounds Welsh.
Whoops.
Love this story too. A few other real readers have done this. IMHO the best version is from Zren th-cam.com/video/RDuHHzU-KGU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=31yCC6aHJ9_s_iVx
20:07 Hundreds of trillions😉
Earth alone, should house several hundred billion people by this point. Several billion on Mars and Mercury and especially several hundred on the entirely terraformed Venus too.
hundreds of billions is more reasonable,
accounting for exodus from earth, lower childbirth of advanced societies, and growth of new colonies is better to assume on average 10 billions per planet and 1 bilion for each lunar colony and fleet ,
just to feed and house hundreds of trillions megaconstructs like ring world or dozens of hive worlds would be required
@@KSZLegion We are already 10 bn.
Someone calculated the Coruscant claim and found that it is seriously underpopulated, for the amount of buildings shown. Having 200 bn in the USA alone, is entirely feasible, if all the highways are turned to Neome type settlements.
@@goiterlanternbase we are currently below 8 billions, u can physically squeeze all that in 1 US state, question is why would you, who would want that and who would pay for it when u have free real estate on other planets,
and i said 10 on average, earth can have above 100 billions and few new colones can be bellow few millions, infrastructure needs time to grow, u cant just dump few billions on a planet surface and hope they survive
