That first one had me tearing up. The second...it was kinda neat to consider not that humans were more advanced. Or even truly weird. They just, had that one guy/gal(or a team of them) come up with an idea no one had considered before. It's like a story where humans' only contribution to the galaxy is being the lone planet to think of the popsicle or pizza bagel, but on an actually useful level.

*Human:* What do you mean you don't have fusion? [Points to sun] It's _right there!_ *Alien:* Yeah, but.... small atomic cross-section... *Human:* Just fold space to make the atom 2-D. Then the volume and cross-section are the same thing and it's a much bigger target, too. *Alien:* That's... what? You "unfolded" the quantum dimensions of hydrogen atoms just to make them easier to work with!? *Human:* Yup. They also pack easier when they're flat, too. *Alien:* How did you even come up with such a concept? *Human:* From the teachings of one of our world's religions... ... "Flat is Justice."

When they needed help, he came. In their darkest hour, he came. Humans have short lives, but long memories. A slight may be forgiven, but never forgotten. A kindness may go uncommented, but never unnoted. The crimes of humans gone five thousand years are yet begrudged, the insults of humans gone centuries are yet avenged. And the debts of people whose names are lost are yet honored. When they needed help, he came. Did he think such a debt would ever be forgotten and left unpaid in kind? When they needed help, he came. And when he needed help. When his darkest hour was nigh. The debts of a generation long gone, unpaid but not unremembered, called. When he needed help. When it was his darkest hour. They came.

No and all of us here on red and blue leavels dont need to black leavel is pattroled by hunter killer drones so we never go down there. Gavtin. But dose anyone know what or who is down there? Vintal. Im sure someone dose but we are not them and we do not need to know. Gavtin. But but what if wait i think i hear something. The lights flickered and the hall went dark. Gavtin. Oh no the powers out what are we to do. Vintal. Nothing the power will come back on in a momment dont worry. The emergency lighting kicked on and the alarms and auto messege. All guards to lift three black containment breach all guards black containment breach. This warden Ralstin all guards to lift 3 shot to kill we have a breach in black containment this is no drill shot to kill. Gavtin and Vintal joined the other guards at the lift all together there was 20 of them rifles at the ready the lifts doors opened they all fired there weapons in to the lift till they were empty and then a figure streaked out of the lift straight at them Gavtin fumbeled his chargepack dropping it looked up at the blur rushing at him and dove to his left slaming in to Vintal with enough force to send them both down a flight of steeps. Gavtin. Vin Vintal are you ok i think we my have been knocked out from the fall. Vintal. Yes i am ok the emrgency lights are still on lets see if the others stopped it or not. At the top of the stairs the hall was a sceen from a monster movie body parts and blaster holes every where and a hole that lead to the hanger bay that was missing a ship. Gavtin. Vintal what was that and dont lie to me. Vintal.that was a Human it and three of its kind were in black leavel and there gone now and it will be to soon if ever get anthor of thoughs dam things back in here.

First tale: I doubt a scattered species, could unite in time to be effective. Second tale : Fusion is a pipe dream. Like solar power, it is expensive as hell and inefficient. Exotic materials, precision mirrors, special lasers, billions wasted all to heat water. Commercially it is not viable, even if the damned thing works in this generation. I suspect you need to duplicate the conditions in a start to even start the reaction. We simply do not have the knowledge, to make it happen , nor to make it pay. Also, can we find something else to base our civilisation on ? Steam is getting old.

[@TheAchilles26]

Steam might be old, but nuclear fission power is vastly more efficient than anything else we've discovered so far. Spears were dominant military technology for literally 10s of thousands of years, steam has only been a power source for a couple centuries.

[@TheMariusDarkwolf]

The part that's seriously stupid, it'll still primarily be used to make steam. We legit don't have a way to capture the radiated electrons to benefit directly. Same reason Fission is used to heat water, just like coal and gas. Hell even Geo-Electric is the same way. Use the radiated heat to convert water to steam and waste actual petawatts of other radiated power.

[@TheMonkey747]

Steam is also clean and can be used in a closed loop system, useful for spaceships.

[@TheMariusDarkwolf]

@@TheMonkey747 not saying it isn't just more efficient and effective to ne able to convert directly to electricity

[@karelvansteenhuyse3522]

Hey! I'm the author of that first story. I did think about that, but I do not think they couldn't have united. Diaspora's often hold close contacts via many organisations. Those would work as decentralized cells from which a bigger army could be constructed. This would of course still be messy, as is illustrated in the story, but it is certainly not impossible!
