Story One
Krill, an alien aboard a human spaceship, discovers the unique and terrifying nature of human sleep. Initially horrified by what he perceives as the death-like state of sleeping humans, he learns that their brains shut down to a level comparable to death to preserve energy, enhance memory, and aid healing. This nightly process, critical for human survival, highlights their unique resilience and connection to the brink of death. Krill's observations underscore the humans' remarkable biological adaptability and their enigmatic dance with the void each night.
Story Two
Krill, a trauma doctor at a major intergalactic medical facility, had only heard stories about humans until an emergency brought him face-to-face with them. When a human with a metal rod through his brain arrived, Krill was astonished by the human's survival and ability to speak despite the severe injury. The incident revealed the remarkable resilience the human species, sparking Krill’s fascination. Despite his initial skepticism about the stories he had heard, this encounter led to Krill joining a human crew, eager to learn more about their extraordinary durability and pain tolerance.
Story Three
The Drev, a formidable warrior race, believed they could easily defeat the Galactic Assembly, dismissing humans as weak and fragile. Initially, the Drev overwhelmed the humans, but the humans adapted, enhancing themselves with cybernetic augmentations that made them stronger and more resilient. The Drev were astonished as humans returned to battle with mechanical limbs, enhanced senses, and reinforced bodies. This unprecedented adaptation turned the tide of war, leading the Drev to their first-ever surrender. The narrative highlights human resilience and ingenuity, showcasing how they turned defeat into strength, ultimately earning the respect of their enemies.

3 stories in one video today! Should we do more like this?
Hello
Thanks dude and yes
HELL NO. one story per posting.
Yes
Yes. Your stories are great.
Cool story. But, wouldn't the crew work in shifts? It would not be a good idea for everyone to be asleep at the same time.
I don't think anyone has the guts to attack a ship with a crew of more than humans and only one alien
@@alexandrabadoiu4986 I wasn't really thinking about attacking enemies as much as just stray space rocks and the like. Several vital minutes difference between, at the controls, and woke up by an alarm.
Another thought, At least some of them should have been snoring. Not sure what the poor guy would have made of that horrible sound 😁😴💤
@@zatar123 Well, the ships themselves are definitely high tech enough to have auto pilot, so I assume those run the ship at sleep hours
Besides, us night owls are a rare specimen, that becomes even more rare thanks to societal norms of waking in the morn and slumbering at night
Indeed. Author probably don't know how ships (or even small boats) operate.
It feels that the stories were read in reverse order.
Poor Krill, after touring with a ship full of humans, I think he will lose 1/4th of his total life expectancy.
Krill hasn't even witnessed what we eat on a Daily Basis, or Elders Preserve Him, what we actually do for Entertainment!
😏🫴
How is it that not one single human has snickered at Krills name is a lifeform found in Earths oceans.
Oh man... The story of how Krill met the Stabby crew. Awesome
"How did I get an accidental Lobotomy?"
'What's a lobotomy?'
"MOVING ON"
I must, I MUST thank you. your portrayal of Krill's panicking voice "You were dying!" I got tears laughing so hard. Thank you, thank you, oh thank you.
Story suggestions: The galaxy finds out that we can reattach severed limbs
Krils gonna faint
@zeekgames2074 definitely Krill will get shocked again
I love the Krill stories but maybe you might want to consider re editing this one so krill and the captains first meeting takes place before krill on the ship
Emergency first aid tip:
In the event of many eye injuries, BANDAGE BOTH EYES.
Especially in puncture injuries, movement of the injured eye makes things worse.
Wherever the uninjured eye looks, the injured eye will follow. So, bandage both eyes and get that person to a hospital.
LOL
Poor Krill....
He's going to need a lifetime of therapy.
I love the adventures of Krill.
Same lol 😂
In the third story it's like '' oh you beat us, so let me cast adeptus mechanicus"
Your pfp. Bru.
When aliens realize humanity is too stubborn to die.
Love the Krill stories. Yes more please.
The storys and how its read makes me come back over and over.
"Sleep" is not really understood by humans either.
Sleep sounds absolutely metal.
Lmfao fr
"Raised in war, huh? Same here. You ever visit the Legionare Cafè?.. The Norse Inn?.. No? What part of war are you from then?... Oh. Ok. Well, let me show you my side of town. Here, hold my arm for a bit while I replace it this BFG. We'll be needing it where I'm from. By the way. My name is Human. And you are..? Drev? Drev, nice to meet you. Let's go. It's almost Happy Hour at The Trench." 😉😈
Every establishment has its rules. At the Mended Drum, you do not say, breathe, or think the word monkey.
Story 3: The Drev found out that the Humans are the Galaxy's epitome of "Fornicate Circuitously And Discover."
I love these stories, Krill is endearing.
Humans - putting the death into deathworld for millenia!
(BTW: it certainly sounded like it was fun to read.)
2:05 if they think our sleep is bad they should see humming birds sleep there like one step away from literally being dead
Return of the Stabby! Woohoo!!!
Also, it is such a nice change to hear a human narrator with actual emotion in his voice.
Can we please get a krill playlist... In order please...
12:41 got me so good lmao
Great VA-ing lol
I was laughing my ass finding out that we were sleeping and him freaking out 😂😂
Starbound HFY, thanks for posting this very entertaining SF story, it is appreciated.
in story 1 there should be someone, somewhere on that ship. minimal crew, maybe 3? 12 solar-hour work cycles.
Well he did avoid going to engineering, which I suspect is where a few of the night owls might be.
Gives new meaning to the term "death world."
Your voice was great for it. Great inflection and changing of voice for different characters!
Thank you for being a true story teller.... so rare...thank you. 👍 BTY... love the different voices.
Enjoyable. Thank you.
I love Krill stories. More please.
The narration, the emotion, the inflection... THIS was probably the best HFY story I've listened to in... well, ever, really! Excellent job!
I LOVE these stories and others like it
Kid ????????? I'm 74 soon to be 75 !!!!!!!! In 1955 I receive a book by Robert Heinlein for my birthday, so I was reading SIFY before you where born Kid:!
"what's a lobotomy?"
Legit, probably one of the most terrifying things we have done aliens would learn about. Even if they didn't have the same fragility like these stories portray.
I'm not certain about that. We've done some far, far worse things.
@@peytonmac1131 I'll add the caveat "with good intentions"
I love how this is one of the only hfy channel to show a face and give introductions ( where his speaking voice is identical to the narrative voice) so we know that it’s not just some guy copy pasting a story into an ai text to speech reader
What about Agro Squirrel Narrator?
@@medusastone2725 who is agro squirrel ?
@@electricminecrafter - Look him up. He was one of the first CZcams story narrators
That story was hilarious. Without shifts even funnier
Love the energy… thatsa sub lookin forwards to moar 👍
Wow amazing, nice video nice editing✨👍
For time immemorial, ships have operated on a 4 hour shift system. Utterly abandoning a ship without full supervision is insane
MUCH better !!!
It's good to see you using *HUMAN* written stories that are worthy of your narrating talents.....
I was most disappointed when you started posting those machine generated Grey Goop travesties. This has begun to restore my faith in you. Keep up the good work ... 😉👍👍
Thanks for listening!
Excellent narration!
If Krill is that amazed by how long humans have to sleep, wait till he meets a cat!
2nd story should have been read first but good job
Stories out of order but still good even though some plot holes!!
Love it
Very interesting story and entertaining
Second story was funny!
Yeah I liked both stories, very good writing! Gosh I hope it was human...!
Just wait until krill learn about naps, human "killing" theyselfs in the middle of the day after a good meal? Is that like the last meal before a sentence? Poor alien will need therapy 😂😂
This is unrealistic. Even on military bases there are shift changes. On a ship there would be four shifts that are staggered to make sure a crew is available at all times.
The least believeable thing aboutthe first story is that Krill didn't come across one person snoring. XD
So they have no night shift, or as some call it the "graveyard" shift (baddap bab)? Seriously though, all navel vessels, civilian or military, have at least two shifts to keep the ship out of trouble (bad weather, navigation, other emergencies), I can't imagine a space ship would be any different considering how much MORE dangerous hurtling through the void of space is.
Ah, the far flung future where people can have eight hours of sleep. So unbelievable.
Everyone sleeping in a ship would never happen, especially a military ship, but also in commercial ship there is always shifts, usually 3x8hours shifts, no captain will left the bridge or the engine room without some one to check the things out.
Knowing that many planets rotate on their axis, would suggest that Most species would evolve a sleep cycle. A few planets are tidally Locked, and those planets would unlikely support life. That being said, I would guestimate that 99% of species would have a sleep cycle
0:09 yes my whole family dose it too
we always say sleep is a free trial of death
well mostly silent snoring would scare the crap out of aliens at first
Drev : WE WILL PAINT THE PLANET RED WITH YOUR BLOOD, HUMANS!
Humans : Well, for one, let me introduce you to bionics. And second, let me grab some soil and fauna samples of your planet and show you the wonderland of gen modded simbiosis.
Interestingconcept about only Humans sleeping.
Hmm, even if the aliens didn't sleep, are there not any wild alien animals that they've encountered? Surely some of the alien wildlife must sleep. I don't see how the aliens would be unaware of the concept of sleep. Still an entertaining story.
What a strange sory. I am certain, in a real starship the crew will be divided into three groups, each on a twentyfour hour cycle eight hours from the other. When one has "morning" the next has "midafternoon" and the final, "night". Even on Earfth, for factories or business that must run twenty-four hours a day, there is "day shift", "second shift", and "night shift". In such situations, workers hate when such businesses or factories use "swing shift" where they are cycled through the shifts on a weekly basis.
You may have defeeted me, but now I have rockets!
I think 3 in a row is fun, and I guess the third is the same genre, but it seemed quite a step sideways? It’s a nice way to make the time up and audio some very good short stories.
The third explains how the cap got his leg. The second explains how he lost his eye the first is the end of all. Strange order
18:40 bruh xenomorph operating on human
Some of these HFY stories are decent. However, most are abysmal and seems written by elementary students! Yet with a REAL PERSON, AN ACTUAL HUMAN USING ITS OWN VOCAL CHORDS make even bad stories sound decent!
Those computer controlled digital voices are crime against humanity!!
27:06 one leg, no arms, but then he proceeds to extend hand?
18:21 being operated on by a xenomorph like alien
one thing i don't understand, why all humans sleep at the same time? that makes a spaceship unatended for 1/3 of the time. so are humans really needed on a ship like that? what if something happen when they all asleep?
even here on earth military works on 3 shifts schedule especially in insolated vechicles like submarines or space exploration scenarios
Poor Krill lol.
Really simple way to get the krill caught up on sleeping. Take him to the ships medical bay, have him speak with a doctor and give him the pertinent literature to read up on the subject. Seems kinda cruel to see him freaking out about it as much as he did and then just.. let him figure it out on his own.
Also why wouldn't the space ship have shifts? Any other vessel that requires a crew to operate and must do so 24 hours a day is going to have a day shift and a night shift at least. All krill would of had to do is just go grab someone from the night shift to begin to explain things to him, but beyond that its a bit of a suspension of disbelief, I'd imagine before there is any sort of cultural exchange, especially with an alien being apparently alone amongst a human crew, its obvious languages and such were already exchanged but to my mind it would seem that basic biology would be exchanged as well. What if Krill were to become Ill on the trip? How would a human doctor know what to do for him without his government sending along some information on what can be done, even just the basics such as if his species has such a quirk as sleeping is for us.
I get thats nit picky and its a funny story but ... yeah..
8 hrs of sleep. I don't now many people that get 8hrs of sleep. 4-6 hrs is normal for me.
Not healthy at all. 8 is the minimum for proper body function for an adult. 13 for children under 17.
Less leads to poor mental function physically impairment slow healing etc.
Military has done extensive studies to push the limits and found what we known for decades 8 is the golden rule. However it can be broken into shifts of 3-4 hours as needed in a 24hr cycle.
My unit we would work 48hr shits regularly with 2 ppl staying and working day and nights sleeping in shifts. To care for the animals in the winter. Lot of work to keep military horses alive and well and few soldiers do it these days with the army having the last fully functioning cavalry unit in the military with no civilian help or fancy heated bays.
Nope just concentrate blocs with tin roof for the animals and the humans get the old barn from when we had less animals and no the main barn is not heated either only one tiny room and a space heater even today.
We did cable about ten years ago that was nice.
good but really no night crew they left it completely unmanned???
The story is fantastic but what's more fantastic is you the greatest weapon against AI generated crap❤
In most cases, the ship should have been crewed in at least 3 shifts at minimum. so there should have been at least a night shift on duty for the alean to run into.
To answer the question of the beginning of the video, yes, if I had a coreder for every time that somebody ever asked me hey that's not normal, I would have a dollar
Doesnt make logical sense for a ship to be not a 24/7 operated vessel, much like submarines and ships on the ocean. Even the ISS has a rotation and hot bunking system.
If related, sure. 🙃
Hm id like to note humans are able to handle eating and amazing amount of toxic stuff. Things even other animals can't handle eating. Hell hot sauce is an abomination to most other creatures cant tolerate. The fumes alone has an adverse effect on other animals. Also the main cause of death in many humans isn't the damage to the body but the loss of fluids. The human body can handle an amazing amount of damage and still heal but once we loose too much blood its all over.
Why'd you read them in the wrong order?
read in order be big help :)
You didn't even do them chronologically... ANYONE CAN FIGURE OUT THAT THE STORY WHERE THEY HAVEN'T MET THE HUMAN COMES BEFORE THE STORY WHERE THEY ARE ACTIVELY STUDYING THE HUMAN'S SLEEP!!!
Stories are out of order!
lol
There's something wrong with this story. Why are all the crew asleep at the same time and not sleeping in shifts? Is the author ignorant?
The only thing I did not liked about your telling of the stories is how out of order they are. Man long time I don't see this autor stories. I should get back and pick up from where I left.
Nah, sorry dude. Doesn't work.
Ocean-going vessels on Earth IRL are never without a standing crew.
The idea that an alien might be shocked by the sleep cycle of humans is a great one.
The idea that a human spaceship might be unmanned for eight hours out of every 24 is absurd. Never mind that they'd just let some alien new arrival wander about the ship while they all went to sleep in quarters that were unlocked.
It's idiotic.
First bro
Legend!
I love that your reading it yourself! You do you but can I have a strong female orotagonist?
Funny story, but i think the author doesn't know anything about ships.
Ok, several flaws in the story made me not enjoy the story. Aside of the fact that humans do not require at least 8 hours of sleep, most go fine with 6 or 7, with 6 being a bare minimum for healthy life, there is one bigger mistake. Humans never all go to sleep when on duty. Not on the starship of all places. There would be 2 or more likely 3 shifts! But, ok... it is a fun story.
