Late night roleplaying
A little explanation before jumping into the story:
(The god of insanity or “the fox” if you wanna call her that. Is from the same series as the employer and actually they both have a mutual friendship between each other.)
n3k1tty:
The colorful man had been quite pissed at his friend after finding out she had a "daughter" in a realm he had been recently working in and didn't tell him. Not only that she hadn't been the best of mothers seeing as how she only watched over her child never really interacting so this may have prompted him to quickly stab his friend in the gut before taking her on a forced trip to meet her daughter. "Come on fruit loops did you really have to shank me! I was in the middle of drinking tea" ""Kitsune what you did was terrible! This poor girl is having a rough time and I can't believe she has to deal with thinking she's actually the daughter of that spider when we both know she isn't."' The colorful man still continued to drag the whiny god as she complained about her tea being ruined and on how she wasn't sure she would be a great parent, even saying she didn't want her daughter to shank her to.
Valora:
The damned ingrate— I mean Valora was sitting in a tree, staring off into the distance. She had been enlightened ever since the bloodweb within her had awoken. So much knowledge was filling within her mind that she couldn’t handle it. Half the time she ignored it or saved it in order to blackmail or just have it for safekeeping. Her hair gracefully flowed within the wind, like water. It was as if she had immediately changed when she became the bloodweb. Her normal white dress turned red, a black tattoo of an unknown shape appeared on her chest, she started to wear black gloves and now she had the ability to spawn sharp and red spider-legs on her back like the entity himself. Valora was singing to herself, a beautiful tune. “When god is gone and the devil takes hold...who’ll have mercy on my soul...o’ Death....” Was all that she sang over and over. Her throat was getting sore from singing but she didn’t care. She couldn’t keep her focus on anything but the distance now, wondering what else could be there.
n3k1tty:
The woman smiled fondly as she heard the song her daughter was singing. Oh she wished she could have the courage to tell the younger female that she was her daughter not the stupid spiders but the god was scared. She never felt this attached to anyone before and watching her little girl from a distance was the best she could do. Though now a very angry short and slightly chubby colorful man was dragging her by her hair towards her daughter and no matter how much she tried to struggle it was pointless. Oh how the timeline had gone in a path she did not want to take out of fear. ""Oh hush it Kitsune! You are going to meet your daughter face to face and stop hiding in her goddamn shadow. Shooting people when they pick on your daughter and watching from the shadows is not a mother but you are one so start acting like it!"" The woman huffed. "That kid deserved it. In all fairness." ""God damn it Kitsune the kid was 5."" "He's still alive isn't he." The man looked at her. "Yay but he's missing a foot."
Valora:
Valora instantly stopped her singing and turned around, her fight or flight response kicking in. She was extremely confused as to who that woman was and why she was here. She had never seen them before so either she was foreign, new survivor, or killer. She prayed it wasn’t the last option. Obviously she had no idea what to say considering they were already bickering with each other. Somehow that woman looked slightly familiar. “Colorful man, who is she?” Valora shouted to them while climbing down with ease. Luckily she had a knife sheathed on her thigh if necessary, and had her spiderlegs as well. But those were put away for now.
n3k1tty:
The pair stopped fighting automatically and turned to look at the girl. The colorful man smiled cheerfully at the girl. "Well hello Valora!  It's nice to see you today I actually have someone that you may be interested to meet." With that said the employer quickly shoved the god of insanity towards her daughter. Though the god kinda froze for a minute just staring down at the girl.
Valora:
Valora walked carefully towards the woman, keeping one of her hands close to her thigh. “Well, it’s a pleasure to meet you mystery woman.” She said softly while looking at her up and down. This entire scenario seemed too fishy. Her glare soon went over to colorful man, a confused expression on her face. “Might I ask for your name and why you’re here?” She asked, crossing her arms.
n3k1tty:
The woman chuckled heart warming at the girls actions." I see your reaching for that knife you always keep strapped to your thigh. Clever girl I would expect nothing less from one of my offspring." The colorful man looked at the girl before stating. "" Well first off Valora I'll ask you a question. Do you believe the entity is your father?"" At the saying of the spiders name the female tsked in annoyance
Valora:
“No, not really. I’m not grey or black, I don’t act anything like now, and he’s way too tall.” She said to him, crossing her arms tightly. Valora was now a little confused, and wanted to exactly know what was going on. “I’m sorry— but why are you asking me?” Her tone was sort of demanding and irritated. Now that right there was similar to the entity but let’s keep quiet about that.
n3k1tty:
The fox tsked again she hated that people said her child was that spiders child. It's not like she hated him personally she hated that her child wasn't claimed to be hers but his. So naturally she couldn't control her tongue. "That's probably because that insect isn't her fucking parent I am  but no he got the god damn credit. He didn't even know she existed, god I'd like to shoot him just once, just to get my rage out." The colorful man turned to the woman. ""Kitsune! Don't curse infront of your own child, that's bad parenting! I know your they call you the god of insanity but could you try to keep your outbursts in check."" The colorful man turned back to Valora."" Well, this woman is commonly referred to as The god of insanity though she actually is the god of time and the mind. Though her real name is Kitsune.""
Valor:
“You think cursing in front of me is bad? You should see what I do in my spare time. I lit spider-douche on fire by throwing a bag of blush at him. And you missy...” She pointed at Kitsune and eyed her, “I’d believe that you’re my mother. But how can you prove it?” She asked hesitantly, taking one step back to relax her stance. Valora wasn’t risking any of her chances on this and wanted to be sure about everything. No matter what it took.
n3k1tty:
The fox demon smiled. "First of all I should high five you for calling him spider-douche, and two don't call me missy tea cup I'm your mother and I single handedly created you out of MY power, DNA, and the only thing I used from that man was the little ounce of spider DNA that was mixed in with power in the original blood web. Also Spider douche can't predict the future/ play around with time like a hackey sack, read minds and tack them over, oh and not to mention he doesn't have infinite knowledge about everything not just his world. You got that all from me you got the spider parts when I used his power as a base structure. Though I do regret it since I didn't realize at the time it had his DNA in it." The colorful man just sat back quietly watching the events unfold. Normally Kitsune would have either shot the person or drove them insane because they pissed her off. Though Kitsune didn't seem mad at Valora at all more mad at the fact she messed up and now her daughter had the spiders DNA in her.
Valora:
Valora just scoffed and looked at her, “You’re the one who left for let’s see...” she paused sarcastically and spoke again, “19 years! Because you couldn’t handle the responsibility of a child. So I got put in the mortal realm with an abusive family and the bloodweb locked within my. So yeah, I have the right to call you missy.” Now she was just plain mad, and was ready to stab someone. Not the colorful man though because she actually likes him. The anger was enough to writhe her bloodlust, her spiderlegs slowly beginning form on her back. Slowly...but surely.
n3k1tty:
The fox demon smirked slightly her top hat finally waking up in time for the show. "Sorry darling but I never left you. I hid in your shadows because I was to afraid I would have a break down and hurt you, and I never truly understood my feelings cause I have never felt the need to protect someone so much in my trillions of years living. When you were smaller you would notice me a lot in your shadows and run to me and cling to me. I would pick off any bullies of yours one by one if they hurt you. I mean I shot a five year old in the foot once because he picked on you. I remember the days I would just sit there as you forced me to play with you. Though eventually those days ended when you grew older and stopped noticing me in your shadows. Then after that you eventually forgot I ever even existed, I would try to get your attention but it never worked, so I eventually just gave up trying." The woman looked away a face of sadness on her face which then turned to a murderous rage." And TRUST ME, I hated those 'parents' you had growing up. There was many times I tried to poison them or kill them but I realized if I did the cops would blame the murders on you. So like a  terrible mother I let them continue you to hurt you though not without consequences. I haunted their dreams and minds. Sometimes even making them hurt themselves when they were out in public hoping someone would put them in a mental asylum." The colorful man noticed the foxes deteriorating mental state before giving a signal to her hate that it may be time to keep a check on her stability at the moment. " I know you must hate me and that's probably why I stayed in the shadows for so long, but I'm here now and I will just have to accept how you feel."
Valora:
She looked at her, with hate filled eyes for a moment before her spider legs retreated, and her glare returned back to normal. “Well...I’ve changed. And you should too. Things are run differently here and talking back to someone like that could get you killed. I stabbed someone and got beaten with a bat that was covered in nails. I threatened the entity with fire and he threatened me with fire. So tell me, why do you still attempt to try and bond with me when you know...never mind. I’m going to go do something. Don’t follow me.” Valora scoffed and walked off, opening the door to another building.
n3k1tty:
The colorful man remembered he did not tell Kitsune about the entity threatening her daughter or the fact she was hit with a baseball bat with nails. ""Kitsune no! Don't you dare! You can't just go around killing people in this world."" The god looked at him pure bloodlust in her eyes and insanity swirling. "Oh, and what's gonna stop me. That spider thinks he can threaten my daughter and live without consequences well guess what this is not how this mother rolls the dice. And I'm gonna hunt down who hurt my daughter with a bat and shove a GOD DAMN PISTOL UP THERE ASS UNTIL THERE TASTING LEAD! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA" The woman had lost, her sanity tipped, it took a lot of strength for the woman to keep her sanity in check for a whole conversation like that without breaking out into laughter and scaring people or even talking to her living hat . The colorful man just wished the girl could see how much her mother has changed for her, done for her or is trying to do for her. He didn't think Kitsune leaving her daughter with human parents was wrong seeing as how the woman can barely keep herself stable and back then she probably would have killed her own offspring along time ago. He just hoped that the spider and meg could defend themselves from a pissed off fox demon ready to here some people scream.

*People fiddle with weird egg-looking things
Ripley: That’s not a good idea…
*People get mauled/impregnated/farmed/dismembered by aliens
Ripley: *weary sigh*
When I was a kid of unspecified age, I remember sitting in an unspecified library, reading Star Wars novels, expansions of the universe that numbered in the dozens. Shelves and shelves of Star Wars novels. I don’t remember anything specifically about them, other than they were the apotheosis of literary genius.
What I do know is that any of those books is worlds above any of the garbage in the “prequel trilogies.”
I was not a stupid kid.
What an interesting thing, this taking of a few movies and turning it into a universe, one where multiple authors and timelines and possibilities all co-exist in nonsensical and delightful ways.
Until the internet showed up, this was the original fan fiction.
I had the pleasure of experiencing two Audible productions adapated from the latest round of novels created for the Alien universe.
Alien, as you may know, was a 1979 film directed by Ridley Scott. If you don’t know at least that, get off my blog.
I love the idea of an idea that blooms in the minds of others and inspires them to expand it. As a creator, that must be the ultimate goal, for your creation to spark imagination and grow through others. I believe “crowdsourcing” would be the hip terminology these days. Except instead of the crowd, you had actual authors writing the stuff.
As I dove in deeper into the Alien mythology, I found it reached much further than I ever knew, like an underground web of fungus.
I made this for you.
The Novelizations
There’s a rabbit’s hole of movie novelizations that no one wants to be ensnared in. It stretches and tangles and interweaves, with a small pool of authors casting their pens across a wide range of franchises.
I was especially entertained to see that the novelizations for the first three movies were authored by none other than Alan Dean Foster! Why is this exciting? I read a very different “alien” book by Foster last year, and though it wasn’t any good, I…I was just excited, okay?
I’m not going to pretend like it’s easy to take a film like Alien and wring an entire novel out of it:
“The ship is dark and steamy. Ripley hears a noise. It’s dark. Very dark. So dark. The crew runs around for forty-five minutes. Jonesy the cat frightens them. Did I mention it’s dark? Also kind of clangy. Pipes, you know. Finally, the alien. Arrgh! Everyone dies. Almost. Viva Jonesy.”
I’m not here to judge. That shit’s got to be hard to write. Even if the guy who wrote it also wrote, judging by the following cover, the equivalent of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats in space!
“Midnight…not a sound from the spaceship”
But even Foster didn’t have the heart to attempt the miserable, weird Alien: Resurrection. 
A.C. Crispin has his own mad credentials however, with multiple Star Wars/Star Trek novels, as well as the esteemed TV miniseries, V
Another round of novelizations commenced after the most recent movie premiered in 2017.
And looks who’s BACK! Good ol’ Alan Dean Foster, making that franchise paper!
2. Aliens (Bantam Books) 1992-1998
Since 1979, there have been a stream of Alien Comics, and twice novelists would attempt to use elicit words from graphic interpretations of film. The layers are getting deep, man!
As noted feminist, Rudyard Kipling, once said, “The female of the species is more deadly than the male.”
Between 1992 and 1998, 6 different authors attacked the Alien franchise, including Steve Perry (NOT “Open Arms” Steve Perry, the Steve Perry who wrote the novelization for Men in Black.) 
With titles such as Nightmare Asylum, Berserker, and The Female War, who wouldn’t want to read these?
3. Aliens (Dark Horse Books) 2005-2008
As best I can tell from lazily reading only a few synopses of Alien novels, pretty much all of them involve Ripley in one form or another. Clone/Alien Hybrid/Human woman who is repeatedly ignored despite her actual experience battling the aliens.
Poor Ripley. If she were a man this franchise would end real quicklike with the aliens conquering the universe.
Let’s talk about the xenomorphs, why don’t we? The MO for these creatures remain pretty consistent throughout:
Impregnate another living being
Burst out of their chest.
Murder fucking everything
A tried and true formula that has spawned (get it?) spinoffs galore and that’s not even getting into Alien vs. Predator. Which, not to digress, but the alien should win! Every time! There’s only one Predator and as many aliens as there are eggs and living hosts. It’s barely feasible when humans beat the alien, and we’re like freaking cockroaches and have nuclear weapons! And Ripley!
Producers are clearly just pandering to the powerful Predator lobby.
Well…I didn’t even write anything about that book series. OK!
4. Canonical Alien Series
In 2013-14, another trilogy of Alien madness was published, this time by a new set of authors: Tim Lebbon (The Silence), Christopher Golden (Ararat, Snowblind) and James A. Moore, who has this author’s photo:
That’s right. I’m James “fuckin’ A” Moore
And in this new trilogy, guess who’s back? Back again?
Yep, it’s good ‘ol Ripley. I know this because I listened to the Audible productions of River of Pain and Out of the Shadows (Sorry, James A. Moore), featuring performances by none other than Neville from Harry Potter, and that guy who gets cubed in Resident Evil. Even if they don’t really bring anything new to the table, do we really need that? Isn’t a good helping Alien gore with a side of Ripley enough sometimes?
Now that this post has gone on for about 500 words too long, visit Xenopedia to learn more about the Alien universe.
Every Alien Adaptation EVER! *People fiddle with weird egg-looking things Ripley: That's not a good idea... *People get mauled/impregnated/farmed/dismembered by aliens…
