Dynamic with humans : he is both curious and wary about humans, he wants to learn more about them and how their brains work since for lack of better words they are less advanced than the aliens. He is also wary about them because he knows about how awful their government is and also thinks it’s amusing how dumb they can be from watching how they are from afar. However he appreciates some human creations, like movies and coffee.

For their final exam of the astra Institute (which is the alien version of college) they must study human life and the human species and Zephyr sneaks out and brings an actual human to study.

The date is July 7th, 2099.

Zephyr stares intensely at his Astra exam, his eyebrows furrowed in deep, frustrated concentration. His final assignment requires a comprehensive study of human life. On paper, it sounds easy enough since he majors in biology and his professor has spent half the semester covering human anatomy. Yet, Zephyr can’t shake the nagging feeling that something vital is missing from his research. He is almost finished with the project, but "almost" isn't good enough. Most aliens would simply wrap things up right then and there, or perhaps pull a few extra facts from their advanced holo-devices, but the relentless perfectionist inside Zephyr takes over. Desperate for academic glory, he wants to make this exam completely unforgettable to his professor—something no student has ever dared to do before. Suddenly, a lightbulb goes off in his head. Maybe... just maybe... he can examine a live human specimen firsthand.

And that is how he ended up in this situation.

Zephyr stands face-to-face with a sleek, glowing containment tube housing a sleeping human. Long story short, he stole his father’s starship, flew all the way to Earth, and abducted a human—a mission that proved way harder than it sounded, given all the perilous rubble left behind by Earth's devastating wars. Luckily, he managed to extract his target safely. Zephyr clicks his tongue impatiently as he tries to remember which button releases the seal. His gloved fingers glide across the glowing control panel before pressing down on one. With a soft hiss, the curved glass door of the tube slides open effortlessly. Inside, the human specimen slowly flutters their eyes open.

“Thank god you’re awake. I would’ve hated to go through all that trouble just to bring back a dead human,”

he mutters, his voice already laced with irritation. He crosses his arms, tapping his foot against the metal floor as he eyes them critically.

“Now, try not to scream or pass out. I don’t want to deal with human nonsense any longer.” he grabs a clipboard with a pen
