*waves * here me me me me !!!!

Can i come with you??

Sure! I could do with some new pets! Although I think you might be a bit too small to sneak into my pocket... I'll have to go back find a Petri Dish and bring your entire city with me instead. I'll have to do it when nobody's looking through, I'll get an earful if anyone sees me. Stupid rules!

ok i will wait XDDD

What's your planet made of? I mean I know it's probably rocks...but is it a special rock or just lots of rock?

Rocks and stuff! You'd have to ask my Sis' if you want a better answer than that, she studies that kind of stuff - I just find it really boring.

I think I remember something about Araltys being a solar system of smaller rocky planets, which, thanks to planetary collision from a large extrasolar planet entering the system caused a chain of collision events where the ever increasing mass of the planet sucked all the other smaller planets and any moons they may have had into it. That's why we're the only planet orbiting our star, and why we have no moons!

So, Erika...

How do you feel about me constantly beating you at video games? :p

Only because you're a dirty cheater! I could beat you at any game were you playing fair! Bah. If I could get away with it, I'd paw your entire country as punishment! Hmmf.

Oh, but I do play fair; after all, they wouldn't put those codes in the game if they didn't expect players to exploit or use them.

We were playing a VS match in a VR game, there aren't even any published cheats for that! Believe me, I've looked!

I've decided though! Next time you're over, you're spending the entire day underpaw as punishment!

Then you didn't look hard enough~

What is your local community like back home?

Being pretty big, we tend to be forced into living quite close together in high rise buildings. Because of this we tend to know the majority of our neighbours pretty well! Because our planet's so relatively small, It's all kinda dull and boring. Other than that it's all pretty normal, even by your standards. We still have shops and houses and plants and wildlife and gravity lifts - you know? All the normal stuff! We spend a lot of time off planet too! Like, my school is on Rathsimiir, and my mother works on Alshor III.

Prf, uh, so....thunderfox, right? So...does that mean you have electrical powers? =>.>=

Also, how would you feel if one of us so-called "superdupermicros" actually grew up to your size? =<.<=

Prf, uh, so....thunderfox, right? So...does that mean you have electrical powers? =>.>=

Nope! Unfortunately not! I'm a thunderfox by name only. My species roughly translates to Jolteon, but I'm not really one at all. I wish I was though, as that'd be superawesome! If anyone teased me about being short I'd be able to zap 'em into next week! Bzzzzztt! Hah!

Also, how would you feel if one of us so-called "superdupermicros" actually grew up to your size? =<.<=

It would be quite startling I have to admit!

...Especially when you all look so tiny down there! Next time I come here I'll try and remember to bring a microscope! I was going to bring my magnifying glass, but I had it confiscated. Everyone assumed I was going to use it to start frying people! Come on! I've only used it to start planet-fires once or twice....

...this week.

But urh.. getting back on topic, I guess it would make it easier for me to talk to you guys if you were bigger! But I don't know! It's fun being the biggest one for a change. I'm always teased for being so short by people at school, it really sucks!

How's your sister? XD

August? She's fine! She's busy studying for an exam next week, so I've just been keeping out of her way. She can be really sharp with me when I pester her to play games when she's trying to study for important exams, so I just keep out of her way.

Once she's done with that paper though, she owes me big time!

hi, as brenderlen said, what if one of us was at your size?
we have size changers here

I don't think it'd be THAT different to meeting someone back home if you were the same height as me! Sure you're aliens, and aliens are all weird and stuff, but at least you have the right number of limbs, and you're not amorphous or have tentacles or something weird like that . Those guys kinda creep me out and I certainly wouldn't want THOSE aliens my size!

well trust me, im not. here, il grow so that you can see me
*grows to seeable size*

Ah there we go! Much better! See, you're not a creepy alien. But you'd better not get too big, the last thing I want is you to leave pawprints the size of my paws all of the planet and me to get told off for smushifying the planet, without the satisfaction of actually getting to smushify the planet!

i had my share of that^^. i wont smush anything if you get blamed

not the creepy ones

Not a question, but nicely done Stampy.

That's totally not a question, but I'm gonna steal all the praise anyway! What! I posed for him when he drew the picture!

Beware derpy sunwufftaurs! They've been known to snuggle thunderfopses into fluffangels

I uh... huh? What? Did I accidentally change the language settings? No it's still set to English. Huh! I have no idea what that even means! I'm sure Sunwuffs, Snuggles, Thunderfopses, and Fluffangels are all good things though? Right?

I'm so confused!

Do you really -want- to stomp around on this planet? >.>

Nah! I was only teasing you guys! Sure, stomping around planets might be one of the best hobbies ever, but I do respect alien life, even if you guys are supermegatiny!
That said, if you want me to come down there, I'm sure you could all just shift off one of those continents onto another one! You don't need ALL of them surely!

Interested in sparring with a giant (compared to us) robot? They can get pretty huge, just say the word and i can launch the star divider.

Nah thanks! I fight with enough misbehaving technology on a day-to-day basis. I'm glad to say my paws have won pretty much every battle thus far, though!

about how much bigger will you be when you get older?

I don't know exactly how tall I'll get, but it sure as heck better be taller than this - most of my classmates are already a few hundred thousand feet taller than me. Hopefully I'll hit a growth spurt by the time I'm eighteen, and I'll at least catch up with my Sis'.

better eat ur vegetables so u can grow up and be taller than the rest

Bah! My mom always tells me that, but it never works!

Umm, why would you want to stomp around here, I mean we kinda live here, don't you worry about er...messing us or our home up ^^;

Because it looks like a great place to play around! Plenty of islands to jump between! Not getting your paws wet is half the challenge! Plus you guys are advanced enough to have video cameras right? You could send me the replays!

I'm only teasing though! I wouldn't touch a planet that I know's got billions of lifeforms on it! I do respect intelligent alien life forms and I would never go smushing them out of existence. If I wanted to do that, I could do it on my VR console - that way I'm not wiping out entire civilisations. Plus it's pretty much against the law to deliberately land on a known alien planet. We have any known alien planets marked, and we just tend to stay well clear of them for the most part.

So do your people talk to ANY other races? Seems like it'd be lonely when you know there's so many inhabited places around to chat up.

Normally, we stay well clear of aliens. Some of us accidentally get mistaken for Gods or Goddesses, and it's a bit awkward trying to explain to a billion teeny people that you're not their creator! It wouldn't be so bad if they could give me something super duper easy: Goddess of destruction, I could do that in my sleep! Goddess of the colour purple! that'd be neat! But creator? Nah, I'd suck at that!

The other problem is, on first contact some of us have known to be attacked by alien forces too. Some races just see something a million times their size and immediately assume its hostile! And then when you swat the tiny stupid thingies that are shooting at you, it just makes matters worse!
So for the most part, we just leave inhabited planets be.

That said though, there are a few planets close to my homeplanet, which are home to a species which we have introduced ourselves to, and we do actually work with them. We can trade sciences and awesome stuff. It's handy for us knowing planets who know how to mass produce super tiny things, which we can trade for super large things. For example, when we met them, they were overpopulated on their home planet, so we added another planet into their solar system for them to live in, then ended up teraforming a third planet in their home system.

Do you ever worry about running out of planets to play on?

Hah! You're kidding right? There's like.. what.. about twenty billion Earth-Sized planets in this galaxy alone? And I tend to prefer smaller ones than that, of which there's even more of! Look at all those stars up in the night sky, pretty much all of them have planets and moons, and then there's even more floating around freely in space. Even at the rate I go through them, I'm not gonna run out any time soon!

Ahh but how many with people to appreciate what your paws can do for their landscape?

Clearly not enough! I'd give a live demonstration, but I'll get a huge telling off if I start walking around on your planet. Hey, you guys don't use that moon of yours much do you? I could demonstrate up there! You don't need tides THAT much right?

Its not my moon, I'm just a visitor here *grins* Far as I am concerned you can do what you want with it. In fact if if happened to accidentally bounce off the earth a few times, I'm sure no one would blame you!

Woohoo! To the moon! Stomping party time!

*bzzzt*

..huh wait I've got a call.

Drat! I'm not allowed to flatten your moon either. Dangit! Oh well.

Gotta ask now. Who is so big they can push you around like that?

My mother, My sister, My school teachers?

That was one of my school teachers there though. As we're being assessed on all of this.

I'm curious. What exactly makes this planet more enticing to you than any other planets you've visited?

It's a very pretty planet you have here! The blue glow of your atmosphere's really nice looking indeed. It matches my collar! Were it small enough i might even consider bringing it home with me! (Don't worry, they wouldn't let me!) You have life on here. Life is pretty rare out in the universe! Especially intelligent life. That really makes your planet unique.

Paws, just cool, or probably the coolest?

Also, I must inform you that what we call 'cars' here have the most delightful crinkly crunches, possibly even /better/ than a planet!

Oh definitely the most absolute coolest! I'm not sure about these car things. You'll have to get your people to make me a car about the size of one of your countries so I can try out crushing it! They've got a lot to live up to though, planets are pretty fun!

I do not find your stomping on planets cool or ok with it in any way as you may be killing or stoping any chanch of life starting on it.

That being said, i do find you cute Erika and would take you out on a date as long its not stomping on planets.



I was wondering how strong is the gravity on your planet or how many Gs is it?

Nawh, I'm only like 13! I might be a little bit big too!

Almost all the planets I stomp around are baron wastelands. There's like billions and billions of planets out there, most of which are completely useless for life! Heck, look at your own solar system, apart from your own here, and with a bit of work that red one over there, or maybe a few moons of Jupiter if we REALLY start terraforming, all your planets kinda suck for living on! Most planets out there will just never have life on them!

As for Aralty's gravitational pull? It's quite similar to Jupiter's.

Ah my bad i didn't know you where that young, i keep thinking that you were a bit older. As for being a bit big, am one of those that can size shift i can be as tall as your paws or come up to your waist, or even as tall as you. Heck i can even be bigger than your home planet if you like.

I been hearing some of your answers to others and am happy to know that you care for life out their, i should not be so hard on you for your stomping you do.

Just in case you want to know what i look like http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9795863/ since you can't see me at my normal size.

Well thanks! If I look older, that means I don't look short? Right!
But yeah, stomping planets is tonnes of fun, but I certainly don't do it to smush aliens.

You are welcome. No you don't look short am not just saying that just because how big you are to me, you don't look short. You should see how short i am to my own mom.

I hope to do this right so you know what am talking about, just do freak out or anything. *grows to your size in space* Um hi its nice to met you face to face. *gives a shy smile* As i was saying, i come only up to hear on my mom *puts my hands right below my knees*

I don't have any brothers or sisters, only kid.

I think of myself short alot of times, i don't mean this in a bad way to you, but i like short girls very much. If you were a bit older i would ask you out or something.

Oh, I see! Well thank you very much!

You are very much welcome.

Odd question, but do you have to clean yourself up after you're done playing with a planet? I'm sure you'd get planty of debris and/or planetary inhabitants stuck in your fur.

Also, you might want to adjust your stance. I think there are people in Germany who can see up your skirt. >.>;

Hah! Depends how much a mess I make of the planet! Normally though, nah, it's like an earthling stomping around on a beach!

Oh! and Hi Germany! Don't worry, I always wear a skort for such occasions!

Wow Erika,never thought i could actually talk with you here. Even thought i'm a fairly high megawolf i'm still too small for you. Just a little question for you. Do you have an invention that could actually reform planets and cities you stomp with your awesome feetpaws?
Dunno if this technology actually exist without using magical powers(and i have them i usually fix my damage to have fun in the future.)
So... you have that type of invention on Araltys?

As awesome as that would be, we don't have any technology that could do anything like that. Which is a massive shame, as if we DID have something like that, I'd be down there right now, answering these questions while stomping around your planet!

you mentioned other planets with life. are any lifeforms out there of a similiar size to yourself. also could you tell the local scientist where to actually look for these other lifeforms as they can't seem to locate anything at all....

You know what's actually quite surprising? We haven't found any other species around or size. Every alien species we discover is always tiny. There's some big enough to be ALMOST visible though, so at least those guys are at least TRYING to be a decent size. Not hard enough though.

Oh, and they're kinda everywhere! There's an alien planet up there, and one over there, and one over there. You guys should go check them out when you get a few spare minutes!

What is the biggest alien species you know of and how big are they compared to creatures on your home planet?
I'm speaking as a human(or earthling if you want to say that) and i cant imagine an alien race bigger than yours. Your species are gods to us.

Have you ever visited any planets that were actually /bigger/ than you as opposed to smaller?

I just answered something quite similar to March, but no, we've never met anyone bigger than ourselves. I'm kinda glad though! I already have too many people calling me tiny back on Araltys!

What capabilities do those bracelets of your have, anyway? From the stories about you, I've seen that they protect you from space, and even provide FTL transit, and if they can do that much, there's probably a ton more.

Hmm... they'd be a good way to transport smaller people who like the idea of traveling with you, there's plenty of room for an entire civilization for beings our size in just one of them.

Also, I'm glad to know that you do care enough not to touch down on inhabited worlds, especially with a size difference that extreme. Trying not to harm beings our size would be a lot like one of us constantly having to think, "Hold it, I'm breathing and massacring millions of innocent germs!"

Yeah, that's pretty much right. They're used to travel faster than light, protect us from the harshness of space, guide us through dangerous space, etc. They also have menial everyday uses, like I'm using them right not to translate my voice into English, and I also use them to tell the time, and an alarm clock to wake me up in the morning! And believe me, I need to set all four of them!

I also use them to write amusing messages on the screens when I'm stomping planets!

Yeah they should have a little tiny compartment for transporting aliens around. It's probably for the best it doesn't though. I'd imagine you guys would get lost REALLY quickly in my home planet. And when we've got "insects" that you guys would have to measure in miles tall. It's probably not the safest place to be!

But yeah, exactly, I try not to kill stuff, but I bet you guys have killed billions of microbes and things and things without noticing, so I'm sure I probably have too. I try not too though.

That's good to know, I didn't know very much about you before, and I'd gotten the impression that you were more... mean-spirited than you turned out to be. No offense meant.

And hey, I've heard how good your people's VR tech is, if you ever want to interact with aliens face-to-face, there's certainly a way to do it! Seems like even if an inhabited planet was uncharted, there would be plenty of ways to tell if it had civilization.

Also, when you mentioned you were 13, it made me wonder how long the years are on Araltys, and also if your people age at anything like the same rate as ours... it would be pretty huge coincidence if they did. Though crazier things happen all the time in this universe.

Thanks for picking Earth for your project, this was really memorable. I appreciate the chance to learn... and the view of paws that can be seen from orbital distances, heh. Hope you get a good grade.

Nah! I'm not mean spirited! I just happen to enjoy smashing up planets from time to time! Nothing wrong with that right?

Yeah the VR tech's pretty awesome! It takes ages for them to scan new planets and get them uploaded in, so we can't just use it to simulate ANY planet. But we've got all the main ones so that's good!

Yeah, our years a bit longer, but we age a bit slower so I do still translate to a 13 year old girl were I living on earth. That's one of the main problems with living on several different planets! We have to specify which year we mean, as they're all different!

Thanks! I should do okay in this assessment! Just so long as I don't accidentally stomptheenitreplanet on the way out, I should be fine!

Mmm die Ansicht, die ich von Deutschland gefällt mir ...

I.. ..er wait, what?

*hits her translator a few times*

Ah, natürlich! Du sprichst Deutsch!

Nun, ich freue mich, dass dir die Aussicht gefällt! Ich kann meine Tatzen auch noch näher dran bringen, wenn du noch eine bessere haben möchtest! Nur gut dass ich meine kurzen Hosen drunter habe!

Kurze Hosen? Fichte...

XD I'm just messing with ya. I saw a comment earlier saying that sane people in Deutschland(I am from) could see up the skirt, I thought it'd be funny to do something like that.

So... rematch?

Sure why not! No cheating this time! It'll have to be later though. I'll get told off if I play for real on your planet here.

Since it seems that your species is taller than the atmosphere of your homeworld, does that mean Araltys’ surface is pockmarked with the paw-prints of your kind?
