Chapter 1: Intro

Page 9

In a silent panel, Rico is motioning to crudely drawn sketches he has made on a whiteboard-like holographic screen and the aliens are glaring intently at it. Poor drawn male and female humans dot the board with arrows strategically pointing around and at them as Rico lectures.

Rico explains the core concept of males vs females to the aliens, to whom this is an entirely novel concept. He has pulled upon the best health class taught by a gym teacher public education knowledge he has on sex characteristics and secondary characteristics to explain the drawings.

Rico points back at the movie, now paused on a frame of the female lead swooning at the menace of the creature, whose costume has clearly been jostled apart and there are glimpses of the actor underneath. Rico then gestures back at himself. The aliens sit rapt but squint and squirm to grasp the differences their abductee is explaining.

Rico audibly sighs in frustration as he erases the display and starts his pictures over again now extra simplified for the aliens' benefits.

Author's Notes:

Why is sex ed taught by gym teachers. Surely some other subject's teachers could make it more interesting/horribly scarring for a young teenager to hear. Like art teachers. I bet art teachers could make sex ed interesting.

I didn't want the Grays to be "stupid", but more doddering. They're just being faced with things that they don't understand and are out of their league. Humans are so unevolved and icky that they have multiple sexes? How gauche.
