Cat Aliens
We were in orbit around the Earth, and had docked with an ancient Russian space station, a tiny affair maybe 3 people max, better with 2. I was on the periphery of operations, either just watching or maybe filming. 2 people went inside and one went outside to fix the power supply, which was why they were there mostly. The guy outside placed the new power supply on the outside, and started to look at the old power supply (which was much bigger) He took the casing off and found the card of the maker, which he treasured and put his own card in there as well. I thought I saw a UFO go past so I started to look for that, instead of watching everybody else. The people inside the station also started looking for it, and we lost time doing this. The guy outside kept playing with the power supplies, trying to fix them. Then I noticed that we were in trouble. We'd drifted out of orbit and were dangerously close to the sun. I knew that we couldn't get out of this so I jumped for the UFO, rather pathetically, and they had to pull me in. I watched as the other people realised what was happening and tried to cope. The guy who was fixing the power supply fried in the heat, and the others tried to close the station door, but without the power supply they had to do it manually, and it was only then that they realised that without the power supply they couldn't fire the main thruster either, and they were doomed :(
I was on the UFO and it was kinda red in colour, and rather open and spacious. There was a crowd of aliens inside a meeting area, most of them humaniod, and I was pushed towards them. I was having problems: I was seeing to sets of things. One was the pleasant scene I just described, the other was a nasty world where robots used humans/aliens/etc as slaves, and I was being pushed into a holding pen by robots. I couldn't decide which was real, and I didn't want to risk the slave world being real so I jumped again.
I was in a role playing game, and so was one of the aliens I'd seen on the ship. He was playing a strange cat creature, with reddish fur, and that's basically what he was. I wondered why other people couldn't see it. I wanted to chat with him, to find out what was going on, but other people kept speaking so we never got the chance. He did keep saying that he could use his cat claws for things, and I held up my hand for him to see, fingers slightly spread, and scalpel blades slid out from under my immaculate fingernails, and slid down again. I had claws too :)
Character creation was over and our first game was on, and we were trekking through the snow to some Indian reservation. The road was rather hilly and I happily snowboarded down the hill, doing a 540 off a small jump :) I had to unstrap the board from my feet and walk up the hill however, and people skied past me. Up the top of the rise it became flat and there were fields of snow with barbed wire fences, and some brown tents clustered in one of them. To our right was a tourist area and we went into there. A guide was saying how this was traditional territory and people lived in the tents. There was a small wooden building, kind of a cupboard really, raised off the ground where you could put your skis or board etc, and another wooden building where people were going into. I stashed my stuff and went into the building, and accidentally wandered behind the counter. I quickly corrected that. It was kind of a tourist shop/cafe` and I got some breakfast, which I ate (it was cereal) There were a couple of old people sitting against a wall at the back, and the lady in the corner seemed blind (or she never opened her eyes anyway) I asked her if there was somewhere I could rinse the bowl and she pointed out that I hadn't finished yet. I looked down at the bowl and food was still clinging to the sides of the bowl. How had that happened? I apologised and went back to eat the remains, and that took a lot of time to do. I still hadn't gotten to talk to the cat alien, why was I so interested in him?
