Stories:Come down to Earth
A story by The_French_Sim
Come down to Earth is a comedy/drama story. It starts with the Neebtadrizk family's crash on planet Earth; these Xk'krylg'hnreblvians were actually going on holiday when their spaceship's engine failed. After crash-landing in Pleasantview, Ymn'ixxu Neebtadrizk gives birth to a baby girl who, despite her parents' opinion, will be named after the planet. But things go wrong when Earth's father and Ymn'ixxu's husband, Orflad, is crushed by a falling space debris, causing his wife to brutally turn catatonic. Tattooed with the Krylgian symbol of adaptability, Earth will attempt to live like a normal Earthling, and later try to do something for non-human minorities.

Origin
Believe it or not, the Neebtadrizks were created while playing around with the Boolprop command. The characters' names were made up before the classic Xk'krylg'hnreblvian "few consonants" style was adopted, which explains that they can be easily pronounced.
