The Cyborg Who Loved Me, a novelette by meeeee!

Star, an alien girl on a long, lonely voyage through space, intercepts an S.O.S. signal in the Whirlpool Galaxy and rescues a mysterious person from a malfunctioning escape pod. Little does she know that the person she saved is Cyborg M-1013, nicknamed “Mars”, a fugitive on the run from the Galactic Federation and the infamous leader of the cyborg rebellion. She agrees to bring Mars back to their home planet, but finds it difficult to get along with them due to their vastly different personalities. On top of that, the two of them have to deal with threats from bounty hunters and Galactic Federation officers! Will they make it to Planet Mi’kah, or die trying?

Eridians are further behind than humans technologically right? They dont have computers, relativity, quantum mechanics, etc. In fact, Eridians probably dont even know about the Big Bang because their atmosphere would filter out most of the cosmic microwave background radiation we use to detect it. On a human timeline, theyre anywhere between like early-mid 20th century. Rocky's basically a cosmonaut.

So the human civilization is pretty advanced from Rocky's perspective. Rationally he understands this. On a conceptual level he knows this to be true.

Like imagine being a modern day sailor navigating the Pacific with GPS and strong hulls to protect against the raging ocean. And from portside you see like an honest to god viking ship. Except its made of some high tech carbon fiber material. But like, its still very definitely a viking ship. You can clearly see there's 24 oars along the hull where sailors are supposed to use to manually row their ship. Also the ship is leaking and theres like one little dude on board whos skittering around patching the holes constantly. Also this little dude is blind and doesnt know about water. Thats how insane Eridians look being an interstellar species without computers or radiation shielding.

waiting patiently for the star from his dreams to finally arrive. it shouldn't be much longer, right?
