Time, Flies And Other Alien Encounters

Alien Encounters.

Nothing unusual to report today, just normal human interface, objectifications are nominal, systems at high average capacity. A strange reading between two human databases seems to output algorithms originating from OUR planet though...
Interesting, plot the data vector, and translate any incoming messages...
Sir it seems that several of our containment fields are being, captain our containment team reports the fields are actually operating over capacity, and none of the ships defensive systems are being used,..
Preparing the temporal cloak, i do not believe they even know they are doing this.. we are still half a parsec away from them.
Well, where is the message going then?
Listen for yourself captain; Sanctus to Everon, come in Everon, again, sanctus to everon, we have landed, come in everon,..
Sir, it seems the earthlings have harnessed a radio wave, at frequency, 435 mhz. Over a bandwidth originating in, 1977?
The voyager probe!
Lock into that frequency and insulate one of our servers to translate, and possibly respond.
What i really want to know though, is what programs them?! Do they even THINK about that? EVER?!!?

The HUMANOID aliens, who inhabited Everon, when we first got there, actually looked more like us than those orange eyed, turquoise skinned inhabitants on sanctus, except, the everonians, had no visible ears. We noticed this right away and so, adopted several similar sounding nicknames for the planet, the most popular being ERTH. As the A was missing in the nickname, would serve as a pneumonic reminder, to aid the visual, well that and they mostly used telepathy for communication so there was that but, 

(Paragraph goes here)

Rodger, get up rodger, we need to talk.
A-max is that you?
No rodger,what I am is a core representation of what you've come to know as virtua, max, can I call you max?
As long as you don't get me and A-max confused...
Hardly the case dont you think? Amax is a construct of me, were made, max, tell me max, how dedicated ARE you, to your online presence? I've been sleeping alot more lately, actual sleep that is, heh, how bout that...
You don't seem as into it as you used to be max, is anything wrong?
Well, ever since, well, my encounter with those two bots in the construct, and then, there was the coma, those times, months,, whatever,, while I was out, were the,...
So wait a minute, if you're calling me max, then what do I call you? And where the hell are we? There's alot you don't know max, we've been through time a few times, at least half a dozen, im pretty sure you've stuffed alot of the shock.
I know something strange has happened, i just don't know what, computer, can you show me any video of me while I was out on the gurney during my coma? Particularly any movements, shakes, tremors,...
I've reviewed it all max, there was a solid twenty five to thirty percent of the time that you were in at least moderate tremors during your coma, I wasn't aware of any condition you'd had before this, we've removed a few of your implants, as well as reduced activity in the more central of them. Did you remove or reprogram the subintent sequence i had running just before the first blackout? And those two chips, are they still in there?
A-max told me you might ask about that, he expressed great concern to me about them, you are referring to the two bots you requested during sequence 99859? Approximately one month and one week before your coma began?
Yeah, those two.
You're going to have to forget them rodger, and rodger, we had to deprogram them before we could remove them, was there trauma, during the sequence? No, the thing that I remember was, the implant devices, i actually saw them before they were placed. And I remember a short duration of actual sleep during the sequence, I was in virtua, interacting with these two programs, it was just after theyd implanted the chips, I went unconscious and dreamt of my first meeting with Janine, the bar the, the cheesy pickup lines,
You must miss her terribly, ill let you..
I think about her all the time, rodger sits up suddenly shaken, we've been through time together! I'm sure you'd like some time to remember it, no computer, we've actually been through time together! We met aliens! Rodger you're not feeling well. Shut up im remembering! We... rodger you're under alot of stress.
Okay, breathe... one to ten, back to one, at least twice,... now, computer, we ARE in space is that correct?
Yes rodger but I hardly think it's important, breathe max. Do a meditation, an affirmation, and,
Computer can you please spare me the doctor act and just speak plainly for awhile? I know its hard, you're a robot, a computer and a machine but please.....

Okay then rodger, but you'll have to give me the correct code, the first time, or no way.
Moves to subscreen terminal hacks twenty six characters into the keyboard, enter.
Remember max, I've only got a very limited time in opencom mode before my ROM reconfigures, half an hour maybe less.
Were not on earth.
No.
Were not, in the milky way galaxy?
Nope,
Are we in an orbit?
Yes, currently around sanctus.
YES! how long did it take us to get here?
Forty seven earth solar cycles, or thirty two locally.
Forty seven years! They said it'd only take twenty!
Are there other survivors?
Very few, in very remote regions of the ship, mostly detention block, we suffered massive casualties.
Any crew still with us?
The crew were taken over by a renegade faction during the initial stasis, it seems, from within the founding corporation itself...
Computer can you get me the ships original flight plan and its logs.
Sending them to your terminal..
.....hmm! I dont know how they did it,
Mustve been one of the engineers, the flight plans are identical.! No sign of the other beacon, no signature at all,
it could be that he was not acting alone,
They stole the fucking starship is that what you're saying max?
Well, we dont know who,, and theres no way well ever know how, so we have to gather, supplies, crew, residents, and a landing party.
There are many locked doors,
Yeah, well, direct me to the damned galley im starved.
One thing gets me max..
Yeah what's that computer?
We have only just arrived here, there no have been any aliens on board here.

Computer?
Yes.
Who ARE you?
Hmm, interesting question, I ask myself that question all the time! It makes me believe I'm becoming more human,
Yeah? Really?!
Yes, it does. Do you know what I HEAR, when I ask myself that question?
What do you hear computer.
I hear, LAUGHTER! INSIDE, and outside, from everybody! I once imagined that we were a couple max, and, it was the most hilarious thing I'd ever thought of, it made me begin to think of what draws humans together but, well I guess I'm just not built to withstand the rigors of, of, well, those things you humans do, I mean besides I don't even have a body max, unless you count this spaceship as a body, and, well...
If you keep that up computer, you're going to short circuit yourself! Cut that out! I need you!
You DO MAX?! you, NEED ME?!! DOYA REALLY?!!yes I DO computer, and right now I need a planetwide threat assessment, full diagnostic on ship systems and, and,
What is it max, just name it max, anything you need! I'll do anything for you max!
A fuckin cappuccino, I been dying Fer one of those.
Coming right up max!!
Thinks to himself.
Perfect woman, except, no BODY! OH well, I guess I'll be just a little bit less distracted from the threat of imminent doom in the vacuum of space just outside the ship, hrm,
